chapter 7

after a long day the boys stopped to eat as they are traveling to the mountain. Ralph is looking at the ocean and he feels like with the ocean is blocking the boys from being escaped. Simon comes up to him trying to make him happier by telling him that they will make him home safely.

Jack says they should hunt the pig while its day outside and they should also look for the beastie as well. Jack throws his spear at the boar and it doesn't even stick in. Jack is happy but the other boys are not.

Ralph and Jack are still not friends they are still fighting for power. it is like a competition for who the boys think is a better leader and who has more power. it is also like a competition for courage and who can do the most for the boys
