blog 13- revision of blog 11- last thoughts

"look there is smoke!" The Navel officer said. The ship grew closer and closer. The men on deck began to see the land form.

They heaved a dingy over board, and into the water so they could go see why there was a fire on the island. The Navel officer thought to him self, and visulized what he would see...

"what will i see? a bunch of crazy grown men and women? nothing? I hope that there is something to find on this island, something to bring back to the boys. Ahh, only another yard till i find out what my treasure will be. Maybe it will be my son! we will find out soon."

The Navel officer arrived on the soft, white, phosphorescent sand. He herd a strange uluation...then suddenly out of no where a young boy comes sprinting out of the jungle. The navel officer asked him, "What is your name, boy?"

The young boy, cowered then answered, "my name is Ralph"

The navel officer had a son named Ralph, but he new the chance of this being his boy was out of the question. and even so, this boy did not look like his Ralph, his Ralph did not have long hair, it was short and a darker brown color. This boy had lighter blonder color hair, and shaggy, covering his eyes.

"who is the leader here?" the officer asked

"I am..." Ralph replied

The navel officer stopped talking for a second and just thought to him self...

" MY Ralph would never be any type of leader. He would put on a better show than this, he would know better! And my ralph would elaborate on his answer to his father, not just give a two word answer. I knew now that I would never find my boy." The Navel officer looked out to the ship, and smiled back at the boys...

Ralph look closely at the navel officer...and noticed that it was his father...but his father did not noticed him. Why he wondered? WHY? Ralph remembered what he had looked like, and remembered that he have long hair and that he had many cuts and wounds, bloody, and had an enormous amount of dirt on him.

ralph spoke in a small voice..."Dad?"


The navel officer looked closely to this young boy, pulled back his hair, and noticed that it was his young boy, it was RALPH!

Ralph noticed a single tear emerged from his fathers eyes. He knew that they were saved. He looked back at Jack, and mouthed..."I TOLD YOU SO"

The Interview with Simon

Q) What is your opinion about the signal fire?
A) Well, when I first herd the idea from Ralph, I did not know what to think. I had this thought in the back of my head, that something was going to go wrong. And it did after the first try. After we started it up again we had a good fire going. And yet the littleuns’ let it out again, when they went to follow jack. It is getting annoying how jack is always trying to take the leader position from Ralph. But Ralph is sticking it out, and not taking attitude from anyone.

Q) Do you think that you would make a better leader than Ralph?
A) Well I don’t think that I would always have everyone’s best interests. I don’t know if I would even know how to act with everyone yelling at me like they yell at Ralph. When I hold the conch, I feel as if I have all the power and then Ralph steals it back, and I don’t know if I would want to let anyone else have the power if I was the leader. But when jack has the conch he does not give it back, and I think that is how I would react to have all of the power over the hunters and the littleuns’.

Q) Do you believe that you will be rescued?
A) oh, that is a good question, um…you know I am not sure. I mean, this island has to be recorded on some map, somewhere on this earth. But considering that there was a “ship” that went buy, then I am considering that some day a while from now, yes we will be rescued. All we really have to do it just keep that fire going, and make sure that we have plenty of smoke for what ever will be rescuing us to see.

Q) What do you think about the beast? Do you think that there is a chance there is a beast on the island? Also what would you tell the littleuns’?
A) Personally I think that there is definitely a chance of a beast being on the island. We just have to figure out where it lives. And I am thinking that it may very well be in the water, because we have searched all over this island. I think that the littleuns’ have a lot of fear from the thought of the beast. But they really have nothing to be afraid of
.

Q) What is your opinion on the island?
A) Well I like it. It gives me a lot of times to think buy my self. And I don’t have anyone telling me what to do; I just sit around listening to the animals life around me and relax. I really don’t enjoy working a lot, but when someone needs my help. Then I will help them. I just like to be alone, doing my own thing. That’s just me.
