The savages left Jack behind. They had to get him before all of them left to the ship.
When the officer said, "Let’s go."
The savages said, "Wait but we left a friend behind."
But they took so long, so by the time the savages and Jack got back, Ralph and the officer had already left on the ship. Jack was mad because Ralph got rescued.
"Now what are we going to do hunters!" Yelled Jack furiously.
When Ralph and the officer got on the ship they were talking about everything that happened, and Ralph was telling him everything and the officer kept questioning him. The officer asked Ralph where he was headed to and Ralph told him England. Ralph seemed like he was concerned about the other boys... He asked the officer nervously what about the other boys.
The officer said, "Once we get to England that he would send another ship for the rest of the boys because they were late coming with us."
So they just kept talking and talking. Ralph was wondering where Sam and Eric were. After half an hour the officer asked Ralph if he was hungry and he said yes, so the officer gave him chips, snacks, and a bottle of water. Ralph said thank you and he ate like a greedy pig that hasn’t seen food in his life. Ralph was tired because it had been a long day and England was about 5 hours away. So Ralph went to sleep like a baby. So the officer was reading a book because he was bored. After 2 hours he saw land, but it was just a land, they had 3 hours to go before they saw England. It was only 5pm. So they would probably get to England at 8pm. Ralph woke up out of nowhere because he had nightmares of Jack and the Savages.
The officer asked him, "What happened?"
“Oh it’s nothing." Ralph said.
Ralph had flashbacks of Simon and Piggy dying. The officer said that we are an hour away now. The ship was starting to shake and they panicked. So the officer looked to see what was going on and it turned out that two sharks were trying to bring down the boat. The officer attacked the sharks so unfortunately we had to eat the sharks raw since we couldn’t cook it. While I was talking to the officer about Jack and everyone else the officer said I was lucky that I wasn’t killed.
Then the officer yelled “Jack... Jack Merridew!”
Ralph nervously replied “Yeah do you know who he is?”
The officer said “Yeah he is my nephew.” “How did you guys get all the way over here?”
“Well I don’t know how they got here, but I got here while I was at my friends house.” Ralph said.
“We were looking for Jack all over the place” said the officer.
"He is evil though, he killed two other boys and he is sooo jealous of me!" Ralph said in a mature way.
The officer said that Jack could be like that sometimes. Ralph dug into the water to drink some but he reached too far in so he fell in. Since Ralph didn’t know how to swim he started to drown and come back up because the officer helped him out. The officer gave him a towel to dry himself with.
The officer asked “So where do you live in England?”
“I live by the big market called Victoria's market." Ralph said.
“Oh I live right by there” The officer replied.
As they were approaching where the ships stay in England they saw a lot of people but they didn’t know what was going on.
"Well were here". The officer said.
“Thank god!” Ralph yelled happily.
"The first thing that we will do when we get out of this boat is, go to the police station, so that we can see who your parents are." The officer said.
After they got out, they went to a police car and the two naval officers looked up Ralph's parents name, and their house address.
"It’s has been quite a while since I have been here. I can’t believe I made it safe." “I think I’m lucky, and I can’t wait to see the look on my parents face when they see me!” Ralph yelled excitedly.
So the two officers took Ralph home, and they told him a sad story, that had happened while he was on the island. Both of Ralph's parents had passed away in a car accident. Ralph was speechless and began to cry constantly. He was touched that his parents had died, because he had nobody to go to now and he missed them so much.
The officers asked, "Do you have siblings or other relatives here in England?"
"Yeah I do.. Why?” Ralph answered confusingly.
So Ralph told the officers that he had a aunt named Susie and if they can adopt him. One of the officers looked up the name and address of Susie, then they took Ralph to his aunt. When they opened the door she was shocked because she didn’t remember Ralph. But when she saw his eyes, she realized who he was.
“Oh Ralph!” She cried out loud.
She hugged him and squeezed him. She gave him a big kiss. She missed him so much that she was crying at the same time that she was hugging him, because Ralph was lost and on a island but nobody knew that. When the officers asked her about the adoption she approved it happily and signed a couple of papers. Susie said, that she would love to keep him because she knew that’s what her sister (Ralph’s mom) would’ve wanted. Then the officers had left.
Ralph had said thank you and good bye.
Ralph and Susie couldn’t stop staring at each other for a long time until she asked him if he wanted anything to eat or drink.
He said, "No thank you, but can I use the bathroom?"
She said, "Yeah."
After he came back out, she was telling him how much his parents were worried and how much his mom had missed him, she was always talking about him, and couldn’t stop thinking about him. She couldn’t sleep and thought Ralph was dead because he was no where to be found. Five years later... While Ralph was walking to the market to get some groceries one day he saw somebody that looked familiar. They kept staring at each other then they started to talk. Ralph remembered those hazel eyes from the island. It was Jack! He started to talk to Jack. He was very surprised that Jack changed a lot. Jack looked more mature, and was a lot nicer than before.
Jack said, “Hey there Ralph! Long time no see!”
They were talking for about fifteen minutes. They were talking about how they used to hate each other and how they never got along. They kept talking and they seemed like they were really good friends.
“So did the others make it?” questioned Ralph.
“Yeah Sam n' Eric are in school safe and sound.” Jack said. “Our parents are really glad to see all of us home.” “The rest of the hunters/savages made it too, they are in boarding school.” “Roger and Maurice live with me because, they had no where else to go.” Replied Jack.
“Surprisingly, after everything we have gone through, we became the closest out of the whole group.” “I saw the rest of the group later on at random.”Ralph said.
All of the boys lived happily ever after and graduated from high school.
