Robert Pitka
Lord of the Flies
Part II
My name is Ralph. After being rescued by the
soldiers we gave our names to some soldiers and climbed aboard a boat
where they gave us blankets and some food. When we reached the ship,
S.S. Sandbar, we got on and some soldiers brought us to the captain's
quarters where he asked us how long we had been on the island. We
replied we didn't know how long we'd been on the island. Then they
brought us to a room where then told us to rest.
The next day the captain requested that we meet
him in his quarters. So we walked though long hallways of pipes and
hatches. When we reached the captain's quarters he asked us if there
were any dead bodies on the island? I told
them there were a couple of my friends' bodies there, plus the grave
of the co-pilot who was buried in a big clearing.
After sending some men back to the island, they
returned with three body bags. All of us boys watched as the men
brought the bodies into another room. They came out a couple minutes
later and went to the captain where they talked for a little while,
then disappeared into another room. I followed
them and asked them where they had taken the bodies. They said they
had brought them to the ship's morgue.
That afternoon the captain asked us who was
responsible for the death of the co-pilot, and Simon, and Piggy. We
were quiet for a while, then Sam told the captain that it was Jack's
fault because he was going crazy trying to be the leader. He also
told the captain that I was the only person
who didn't want to join the tribe and that was why they were chasing
me with the spears and yelling.
The captain had his men take Jack to a cell where
they locked him up until we reached the U.S. We stayed on the ship
for a couple of days doing nothing but wait. Then later they put us
on a helicopter and flew us to land where we were greeted by our
parents and the press and some other people whom I
had never seen before. When I saw my mom I started to
cry and I ran over to her and hugged her
really hard. As we walked to her car, the press started asking me how
long I was on the island and if there were any problems on the
island. But my mom told me to just ignore them, and we got into the
car and drove home. I had not been home for a while, but when I went
to my room it looked just the way I had left
it, all my clothes just where I'd tossed them.
The next day my mom woke me up and told me thatI would
have to go to court and testify that Jack and Roger were responsible for
the death of the two boys.I watched as each of the other boys went up to
the stand and told the judge how Jack and Roger were acting toward
everybody. When I went up I told him that Jack wanted me dead becauseI was the
only person who wouldn't join his
little tribe.
For the next few days the trial continued as the
prosecutors asked the boys and some of the military personnel about
how we looked when they found us. That evening the judge reached his
decision that Jack should stay in a juvenile prison until he was 18,
and when he reached the legal age he was to be transferred to a
maximum security prison for 45 years.
After the trial I went back home, and every night
I have the same dream that I am back on the island with Piggy, andI see him get
killed and I wake up screaming and I have a hard time sleeping every night.
Sometimes when I
wake up I don't even know where I am, and it takes me
a little while to remember where I am, and when I finally remember I
lay back down and try to sleep again.
