Those Darned Littluns!
"Nooooooooooooooooo! The only working brain left on the island! Gone!" Ralph cried, sinking to his knees. "Would you have liked to die in his place?" Jack asked. Ralph nodded slowly. "Well too bad, all his intelligence made my head hurt. I'm glad he finally shut up." Bill said. Everyone but Ralph and Maurice laughed. "Hey, isn't this a humor story? Nothing's funny about dying. I say we go to the littluns." Maurice said. Ahem, good point, Maurice. Have a cookie. : )

All the littluns, now fully packed with war paint, spears, and all that good stuff were charging through the forest, scaring away any pigs that could be left. Of course, like Johnny said in the last chapter, this is an island and therefore, the pigs will be captured.
Unfortunately, by now the pigs were smarter than the littluns. Sad, isn't it? So they could never manage to kill the pigs.
Finally, Brandon sat down on a rock, head in his hands. He sighed, "We're never going to kill a pig, are we?" "I've been wondering, how can killing pigs give us a bigger part?" George asked. Then all at once, there were answers such as, "Why do we want a bigger part?" "Cause we then have a name other than 'littluns'" "Cause it's fun." "EVERYONE QUIET! Do you all realize are lost in the middle of the woods!" Johnny announced. Of course, no one actually listened to him over the loud talking everyone else did.
Johnny sighed. Then he began to wonder why no one listened to him. But everyone listens to Brandon. He thought mockingly. Let's go all hunt pigs! He says. Well I say we stay unnoticed. Who got killed? Main characters! Not the main MAIN characters, of course. Jack and Ralph get to live. Lucky bastards. He continued to think such thoughts until he finally got an idea. He ran off, planning never to fall under Brandon's rules again. Anyone seeing some repetition here?
Of course, no one likes Johnny and all his yelling, so the few people who did notice him leave did a little cheer. I'll leave their exact movements for your imagination.
AN I know these chapters are extremely short. But would you rather have to wait a couple days longer for a few more paragraphs? I didn't think so.
