Piggy's Alternate Ending

The smoke from the forest continued to climb, creating a dark shroud over the island. It was quiet, the birds and animals had ceased to cry, the silence reminded Ralph of his time before the island, before he and everyone else lost their innocence. Ralph was still on the ground where he had collapsed before. He never thought, after Piggy’s death that he would ever make it home. Ralph didn’t believe he had achieved victory, there was no returning fro what had happened. If only Piggy could see this, he thought, he would be so excited. Ralph looked around him, he could see the last of the hunters, they used to be boys armed with sticks, now they were savages, murderers and brutes.

Spill his blood!_.” Ralph turns to the littluns but sees that they are scared and that they will be no help. The beast is getting closer, Ralph starts to scream in fear and renews his bashing of the door.
