He represents the start of the kids’ savageness. In this chapter he was represented as “the beast” by all the kids. Simon- A hunter, another biguns in the group.Evening came and the tide carried Simon’s dead body towards the open sea .Meanwhile, the wind carried the paratrooper’s body towards the sea.Everyone circled around him and just killed him. The boys got carried away and when Simon came to tell them the news, everyone just wanted to kill, so they saw him as the beast.The game started to become more serious and Roger stopped to being a pig and join them going at the empty circle and the littlun started making their own circle too.They danced their “kill the beast” ritual Roger played as “the beast” Ralph and Piggy couldn’t help but join in. It rained and Ralph tried to convince them back again by using the shelter but then Jack found a way to distract them again.Ralph looked around and saw that the boys are on Jack’s side. Jack told them about hunting meat and protecting them from the beast. Ralph said he has the conch but the conch is powerless now. Ralph and Jack argued for the power again.Jack was asking who wanted to join his group, when Ralph tried to step in, Jack embarrassed Ralph by saying you were eating too. Jack offered Piggy and Ralph food and then he asked if everyone’s done.The tension disappeared and everyone were united again with laughter when Piggy screamed and danced because he got burnt by the meat the 2 boys were holding. Jack saw them and there was a tension once again.They saw Jack seating like a king on the log with painted face and lots of food in front of him. At the party, everyone was having fun and eating.Both of them felt jealous so they decided to go and “check it out”. Ralph looked around and saw no biguns so he asked Piggy. They were chatting and Piggy said he wanted to go home. Since it was really hot, Ralph decided to take a swim at the pool and Piggy joined in too.
