Simon's diary

I just woke up from the crash and thought that was a a rough landing. I look out the window and see fire, behind that trees. I noticed from the traces that our plane has crashed. Now I am thoroughly spooked. Where am I, how did I crash, is everyone OK am I OK? These thoughts swirled around my head. I open my eyes to see another choir member looking at me with worry in his face the familiar hambone frill then he came into focus and I saw that he was the precentor or Jack Merridew then he was himself and the jerk he is came back. He said that he claimed himself leader and that they should find water and shelter. So the choir goes into the forest and starts climbing a hill. Then Jack starts looking for a water source. Then a deep, piercing sound blasts through the forest startling everyone in the choir. Then another piercing boom goes through the forest again and we start following the sound. Then repeating blasts keep repeating letting us know where it's coming from. Once we make it we see all the other boys who survived the crash. Then we find the kid who has been making those noises. He was somehow making the noises from the conch. I feel that the conch is part of order it managed to get us all organized in one spot. That is also why I also feel that it is keeping us united. He seems like a fair boy and Jack stand up to him him and says that we should start a communion. I can barely hear them talking but I heard that all the adults died in the crash.
