chapter 10- the shell and the glasses
perspective- piggy

CAN'T BREATHE OR SEE, CAN'T ANYONE UNDERSTAND THAT?-

I heared something coming nearer. "Ralph, Ralph!" I could tell that Ralph was annoyed now, but I didn't care. Jack and some of his tribe were out there and I knew it. "Piggy!" those barmy brats called. "Piggy... where are you?" I didn't dare to move. I gripped Ralph, who was fully awake now, and held on for dear life, trying to see as cleary as I could with the remainning of my specks. Before I could even adjust my eyes to the shadows of the figures, my grip was loosend from Ralph. My stomach felt like it was going through my back and I couldn't breathe. I couldn't feel my lungs. I heard SamnEric's quicks of breathes and thought I could hear Ralphs too. I seemed as though all four of us were getting beat up by Jacks tribe. I tried to purge myself right, but then I could feel my jaw getting pined to the floor. I couldn't brethe, hear, or see, and I tried once again to free myself from the arms which then released me after doing a number on my face. I couldn't feel anything anymore. I had no more senses. I remember just laying there hoping that death would come. It was as though I could see heavens doors awaiting my entrance, but all I saw was black. Not white like you think theological. ----------------------------------------- Just as soon as the pain began, I felt myself being hauld over across the hard dirt surface of the earth. "Piggy are you alright?" "Piggy" "Piggy". I keep hearing my name being repeated over and over again. I couldn't tell if I was just remembering the crys for my name before I got attacked, or if I was still concious but just hearing my name get called to see if I could reaspond. My whole body ached from the brutal, immediate, hits and my head felt as though it was hanging from a string; but I gave it my best effort to show that I could hear them calling. As I slowly reasponded, I could hear how furious Ralph, SamnEric, were about this whole situation. It happend all too suddenly, as though we were flying for one second then comming across sement in a metter or milliseconds. I can't remember anything but I think I have a pretty good idea from the achyness of my body. Slowly but surely, I opened my eyes. I couldn't see anything. I couldn't tell if it was just because my eyes were swollen and were protesting against me telling them to open, or if it was because my glasses go knocked off of my face during the attack. Im not sure but I better find them in the morning because theres no way I can be useful without them. I was already half blind and having to always tilt my face just the slittest more to the side, so I could get an absolute shot of what was happening. Now, all I could hear was Ralph ask us what they saw or heard. Sam went off about he couldn't tell if he had someone ontop of him and so started punching whatever contact he could find. He described how he started feeling some add pains in the places where he thought he was attacking his attacker. Later he realized that he was just attacking himself. He was jsut sitting there and in the process of illumination. Those boys are really going to get it tomorrow. They won't know what hit them after we deal with them. There may be only four of us now, and very badly beaten, but four may just be enough.
