All the boys fall asleep when nightfall comes. During this time there are war planes in the sky and there are many explosions. None of the boys see this because the twins, Sam and Eric, have fallen asleep. When the boys are sleeping a parachutist drift down the sky onto the island. He lands, his parachute stuck on rocks so when the wind blows his shadows move one the ground and his head is raised so his face shows. The boys finally wake back up and start to remake the fire and during this time they see the shadows of the figure and mistake it for a beasty. They run as fast as they can to tell Ralph. Ralph immediatly calls a meeting and they decide to set out on a hunt for the beast. Piggy and the littlun remain behind at the shelters. Ralph and Simon are the only two boys to cross the path and go into the dark cave. The other boys begin to play around.

Chapter 5

Ralph is walking along the beach thinking of many things. First of all, he is getting very tired of his hair, which has grown so long it hang down in his eyes. He is also worried about the other boys because they all seem to be out of line. He decides to call another meeting later that night.

Ralph starts talking about how the boys do not do what they are suppose to do anymore. They have been neglecting the fire, not getting drinking water. and not using the bathroom in the designated area. He does his best to show the importance of all these rules and why they have to do them. Him, Jack, and Piggy all tell the littluns that the beasties are not real and there is nothing to worry about. The littluns remain scared anyway. One littlun claims to have seen the beasty and says it comes out of the water at night. Jack immediately says there is a beast and him and his hunters leave to go hunt. Ralph, Piggy, and Simon are the only three left sitting there in silence.

Soon the boys get use to the weather and what it is like on the island. They learn to judge when nightfall comes and how cool it will be. Some of the littluns are scared because they think they see strange object on the water, but Piggy tells the it is the reflection of the sun on the water. The littluns are still having bad dreams and continue to talk about the beasties. Also, the some of the older boys pick on the younger boys, Roger being the worse.

Later Jack paints his face and takes the other boys into the jugle. At this time, Ralph and Piggy see a ship go by but when they look to see the smoke, there is none. Ralph runs up the mountain with Piggy tracing behind him. When he gets there he realizes that Jack made the boys leave with him to hunt. Even though Jack and the twins killed a pig Ralph is still very mad because they had a chance to be rescued.

Chapter 3

Jack tries to kill a pig but it gets away so he goes back to the beach where Ralph and Simon are building huts. Ralph is very agrivated at this time because none of the other boys will help build thje huts and they can't get the hunts to stand up. Also Ralph is worried because Jack's hunters have not yet caught a pig and the littluns are having bad dreams. Although Ralph and Jack have their difference they push them aside and go swimming in the lagoon.

Simon goes off alone into the forest, occationally helping a littlun reach fruit from the trees. Simon keeps walking on into the forest and comes along a thick jungle glade full of flowers, birds, and butterflies. He sits down and starts taking in the scene.

Chapter 2

Ralph blows the conch to call another meeting on the beach. Ralph reminds the other boys that because there is no adults, they will have to take care of theirselves. Him and Jack decide they will have to kill pigs for meat. Ralph also decides that the conch will be used for speaking. Whoever has the conch will be the only one allowed to speak.

After talking for a while the boys become frantic because they realize they may not be rescued. Also a littlun tells the boys that he has seen snake like beasties in the forest. Ralph tells him he was only dreaming. Also, Ralph says that they will built a large signal fire for rescure. That way if a boat goes by the island, they will see the smoke and come rescue the boys. They use Piggy's specs to start the fire, and not long after they realize that a littlun is missing.
