The Girls Point of View.

     "I think we need to make some sort of time tracker." said Patty in her usual wheezy voice. "I really think it could be beneficial to our new found society."
     Rachael looked at Patty like she was the gum on the sidewalk that she just stepped on. Just the way Patty looked drove Rachael and the rest of the girls on the island crazy. Sometimes she felt bad for the things that they did to her, but most of the time no one really cared. Patty had big, frizzy, brown hair, and her skin was pale and freckly. She had braces and wore glasses from the the 70's. And if that wasn't enough, she wore overall shorts with a pale pink unicorn t-shirt that had ketchup stains on it from when she spilled on herself in the airport.
     "Yeah, and then after that we can build shopping malls and radio towers too." If there was ever a time when Rachael just wanted to be alone, it would probably be right now. She didn't know what she had gotten herself into. The day the plane crashed on the island all of the girls elected her queen bee of the group. She didn't know how to lead anyone, the only experience she had at leading was bossing her three minions around at school. Now she was stuck here talking to some science geek from Alabama.
     Just as she was about to say something else, there was a shrill of excitement coming from the top of the mountain. Rachael and Patty ran to see what all the commotion was about. "A SHIP! A SHIP!" one of the little uns was screaming. "Quick, put more wood on the fire" ordered Rachael. As she turned around to look at the fire, a look of disappointment spread across her face.
     Jackie had taken the fire watchers and the fire had gone out. Their chance to be rescued had disappeared just like that. The shrills of excitement and hope had turned into fearful screams and tears of sadness.
     Jackie had returned with her hunting party carrying their kill. The pig they had been trying to get since they first became stranded on the island. Her and her hunting party were beaming with excitement and joy because they finally had some meat to eat.
     "Jackie" said Rachael, "Why did you take the fire watchers? There was a ship. A SHIP! We could have been rescued! You ruined our possibly only chance at being rescued! And only to get ONE pig! Just ONE!" Rachael was infuriated with Jackie, she wondered how they could be so irresponsible.
     "Rachael, you need to take a chill pill. We got meat. That's all that matters right now. Another ship will come again." Jackie was doing her best to hide how she really felt. She was filled with feelings of disappointment, worry, fear, excitement, and joy. All the girls could hope to do now was build the fire again and hope another ship would head their way.
