Journal Entry 8: Simon's Death

Well, they killed Simon. I can't believe they actually killed him. Simon wasn't a threat to anyone, he was one of the weaker boys on the island and they killed him. Apparently they thought he was the beast so they killed him.
How could anyone confuse the beast with Simon? Simon is small, little, and weak minded. Him off all people couldn't be mistaken for the beast.
In my mind for some reason, I think the boys are trying to get rid of everyone on my side, maybe because they know we won't ever switch over to the other side.
Now that Simon is gone, I am becoming more and more less hopefully of my chance of survival. I think that if I don't die from starvation, or something I think the other boys may kill me. Now that my alliance is becoming weaker and weaker I am starting to fear that the boys and there evil spirit is going to spread not only over the entire island, but over me as well. I'm not sure what's going to happen or what will happen next.
I think they may try to convince Piggy onto their side next, then I will be alone, by myself, no one to talk to, no one at all. Piggy is not my typical friend, but right now, he is all I've got and I would hate losing him right now. I'm really hoping the boys stop the foolishness and allow the evil and savageness to leave them and allow them to return to their normal selves.
I don't know how things will turn out, I don't know if I'll ever be rescued, I just know, I don't want to be killed like Simon. I'm in fear of my life and I'm aware of what they are capable of. I don't know what I'm going to do.
