Everyone's gone..

     Today has been a boring day. Mostly, because I’ve been looking after the littluns all day. At dawn  Ralph called an assembly and informed everyone that Samneric had seen the beast. To be honest I think this is pure bullcrap. It might have been something else. I ask them repeatedly if they are 100% sure they saw the beast. To me they seem pretty scared to think straight right now and since last night’s talk they also might’ve been terrified of a beast. The only thing I know is that this isn’t doing any good to the tribe, if there really isn’t any beast then this is just affecting everyone––increasing their fear.

     Jack seemed arrogant too––after the meeting. All of the boys, but me, left to explore the last, untouched, part of the island. I hope everything is going well between Jack and Ralph since tension has been arising because of the strong differences between views, and also the undercurrent of power division. It’s getting dark and I’m getting worried…
