We danced and feasted and killed... But the beast is still alive ;) #ikilledsimon
Hello again, readers. Today a lot happened. First, my tribe and I (it feels so good to say that. My tribe. Mine. No more Ralph!) killed a sow! We left the head as an offering to the beast, to sate its appetite. We had a feast tonight! We took some of Ralph's fire and roasted the pig. Ralph and Piggy came to the feast too. We ate and more people joined my tribe (again, MY tribe!). We dance and chanted, "Kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood!" Then, out of nowhere, a "beast" did appear. The boys were out of control and in their dance, they did kill the "beast." The "beast" I discovered was Simon. Simon, who was always fainting... But he should not have sneaked up on us like that. It was his own fault that he chose not to join my tribe and be protected, his own fault that he was a loner, his own fault that he was always creeping around with his animals. I do regret taking part in his killing, but it was really his fault.
I think Ralph and Piggy realized who it was, too. Piggy is probably peeing his pants right now, terrified of my tribe and the things we are capable of. :) But Ralph... Knowing Ralph, he will try to deny the dance and the subsequent killing and pretend it didn't happen, like the coward he is. He will try to use the killing to disrupt my tribe. I can't let him do that! The beast is dead in the minds of most of the boys now. I must convince them that it is still alive, so that they have something to fear. Then they will have to come to me for protection, and Ralph will be too busy crying over Simon to stop me. Actually, I might not even be lying. For all I know, the beast does exist and is still out there.
