When this chapter first started I no longer thought this beastie is just a pig. Who knows what that thing was. I'd be pretty scared if i was anyone of them, but after finding out that it was just a fallen pilot, I'm not sure why they ran away instead of helping him. If they weren't out at night maybe they would have had a more clear idea of what it was before over reacting. I Think the hunters need to become more serious when it comes to their 'job'. If then think its so important, then they need to really make for of an effort, and go about things in a smarter way. Someone could get hurt with them playing around like that.

At this point, I'm really confused as too what the beast is. I don't even know if i believe it exists, we never really get a full description of what character is doing what, at all times.. so it could even be one of them. I'm still wondering what happened to the kid with the birth mark.. it doesn't seem like anyone is even trying to find him. This "beastie" might even just be a pig. Although I'm not sure a pig could be that smart and stay hidden or steal children.

When Ralph is deciding what he should do, I'm glad he started to consider piggy's ideas more. i thought they made the most sense. The meeting was well thought out but I don't think the rest of them got it through their heads about how important the food, drinking water and shelter is. Especially important is the fire. Without that they have no chance of being saved and I doing think Jack even cares.

I think its good that the littluns still get to run around, play and have fun like normal kids. Although its not very nice of the older kids to kick over sand castles and throw stones. I think that the bigguns should be keeping a closer eye on the littlus, especially if there is a "beastie" running around. Maybe Jack is taking this hunting thing way too far, with the face paint and what not. It's even worse because it was their fault they let the fire go out. I would be extremely mad at the hunters.It was terrible for Jack to slap Piggy, even breaking one of his lenses, that was just plain stupid, they need those glasses to start fires.
