It's dark and he sees only the shadows of his friends looming around the fire. When he finally stumbles onto the sand his friends circle him, but not to greet him. Someone throws a spear and he writhes in pain. "The beast!" he exclaims, but no one is listening. They keep attacking until his cries are no longer heard. This situation may be very entertaining when being read in a book like Golding's Lord of the Flies, but what if it were real? Lord of the Flies actually re...
