"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of a true, wise friend called Piggy."
Lord of the Flies
Chapter 12
The cry of the Hunters
Ralph
Finally rescue!
Today I have realized that I was all alone with piggy gone. I was not that far from castle rock. I thought I heard some hunters trying to find me but they were just hunting. The day passed as I slowly moved on toward castle rock. When I got there I found Roger watching guard and playing with a stone in his hands. I then went around and I saw Sam n’ Eric guarding another post. I sneaked up to them. They were still savages after all. We started to talk after awhile. They said that they were going to go hunting for me tomorrow. They said that Roger sharpened a stick at both ends. I didn't get what they meant by that. I told them that I would be hiding down there near where the rocks that killed piggy landed. I said that they would never look so close to find me. My stomach growled as I left. Sam threw me a piece of meat from what they ate. I then traveled down to the rocks. There was only a small gap so that you could fit threw the rocks. I was still afraid to fall asleep though. I eventually fell asleep without knowing it from being so tired. When I awoke I heard Jack talking to Sam n’ Eric. They sounded like they were being hurt. Jack asked them if I was in here. They said yeah. Someone tried to enter through the small gap. I thrusted my spear into that small area. I heard moaning of someone being injured. They were trying to figure out how they are going to get at me. They left. Then a minute later I heard Jack screaming heave! One of the two huge rocks above me moved. I moved away. That was the smaller of the two big rocks. The other one would take days to move. Then I heard them talking about another plan. I smelled fire and a smoke. Someone yelled smoke and I had to get out or id burn to death. I moved a couple of smaller rocks around and wiggled out. I ran as fast as I could but someone still saw me. I had to stop for a breath. I hid in a bush. The savage came up to me. I glanced at the spear and it was sharpened at both ends. It was Roger. I wanted not to scream but I couldn't hold it in. I screamed as loud as I could. I ran. Then when I came near the beach I saw a man in a suit. He looked like he was in the navy. He said he saw the smoke from the fire in the forest. The rest of the tribe caught up with Roger. They saw the man. He asked me if there was any adults on the island. I said no. Then he asked who was leader. I proudly answered me.

I like how you went through the entire chapter in Ralph's perspective. It had the same sense of adrenaline as the book. Good job! But I think that you should make separate paragraphs. Good Job!
P.S. I LIKE SHOES!
I liked how you described Ralph's emotions throughout the whole chapter. You described his conversation with Samneric. It was overall a great blog post.
