《P I G S》11. Never trust a pig

Advertisement

Everyone’s attention had now been turned towards the pig.

It seemed that nobody had noticed the pig when they walked in. It hadn’t oinked or made a sound and everyone was more worried about our location.

I thought it was weird. I hadn’t seen a single animal on the island since I got here. So where did a pig come from?

Even Annabelle who always is around Wilson didn’t notice him bringing in a pig.

She looked at him and asked, “What’s its name?”

Wilson looked up at her gleefully and said “His name is Willy!”

After hearing him talk some people smiled however Amar seemed unhappy “We can’t let that thing into the church. How can we keep a pet when we can barely get enough food for ourselves.”

Some people thought about agreeing with him until Wilson started crying. It was incredibly loud and if I may obnoxious.

Annabelle tried to get him to calm down however he wouldn’t.

We tried everything to get him to calm down however Amar finally gave in and said “Fine we can keep him I guess”.

Wilson stopped crying almost immediately and cheered as he started petting the pig excitedly. After that everyone did what they always did and went off to mind their own business.

After the confusion of the pig ended I thought about the bear, Ezra, and the guns in the church. Honestly, it was too much for my brain to comprehend.

It felt like everything that happened today threw a curveball at me. Ezra didn’t seem as talkative today it was like he was contemplating things as well.

Even though he has helped me the most. With what he did and said today I would be lying if I said that I didn’t have any suspicions about him.

Although it didn’t seem like he was going to harm anyone so I didn’t think I needed to bring it up with the group and put Ezra on my bad side.

As I was contemplating this someone unexpected walked up to me. It was the albino girl. If I was being honest she was so silent these past few days I forgot that she was even here. It was like she was a ghost.

Surprisingly she opened her mouth and for the first time, I heard her speak. She said, “So Ms. Bear is dead correct?”

Surprised at her talking and more surprised at her question I responded, “Y-yeah I think so?”.

She looked at me for a moment with what I thought was a glimpse of sadness before going back to her usually stoic face. She slowly turned around walked away back to her corner.

It seemed that everyone was staring at her as this was the first time anyone had heard her talk not just me. However quickly people went back to what they were doing as it’s not like staring would change anything.

It seemed to be Ezra’s turn at making lunch.

With nothing else to do I helped him.

We were making some berry soup with water that Amar had grabbed from a nearby river. While we were making it there was an awkward silence between us the entire time.

I tried to focus on just making the food however I just couldn’t get past his strange strength from earlier.

Eventually, we managed to finish lunch and everyone came to eat. We once again decided to eat in silence. After lunch, I decided to take a nap as the running made me exhausted.

Before I went to bed, however, Ezra walked up to me and said “how’s the ankle?”.

Surprised he was talking to me I said “it’s feeling a bit better it should be better by tomorrow thanks for asking.”

With that our conversation ended and he left me to rest. I was getting more used to sleeping on the floor and I managed to fall asleep quite quickly.

------------------------

I felt a nudge on my shoulder and a soft voice floated into my ear “Wake up Dante otherwise dinner will get cold”.

I slowly looked up and opened my eyes at first In my grogginess and blurry eyes I thought it was my mother and accidentally called out “Mother?”.

I saw the figure blush a bit before saying “It’s me, Annabelle, we are eating dinner and I thought that you might want some so I woke you up.”

I got up quickly embarrassed that I called her mother. I quickly apologized and she just shrugged it off.

As I was getting up I noticed that the pig was sniffing me while I was sleeping. It was quite cute if I was being honest.

Annabelle said, “Willy was sniffing you the entire time you were asleep it seems he likes you”.

A small smile drifted to my face and I gently patted his head. I then got up and joined the rest for the meal.

It was nothing special just more berries. At this point I didn’t want to even think about berries anymore but, I had to eat.

As I was eating I realized I hadn’t taken a shit in a few days. I would have to go tomorrow before the bell in my free time. As I thought about how to wipe we finished dinner. I soon went back to bed afterward.

--------------------------------

I heard a noise. It was a disgusting noise. It was the sound of someone eating meat.

At first, I thought I was just having a weird dream but as I realized that this was real I got up hastily.

I looked around and saw that no one else was up yet. As I was watching I saw something horrific.

The pig was eating someone.

It had bitten straight through their neck and was chewing and some cartilage. From the sleeping arrangement, the person it should have been eating was Amar however something was wrong.

He had the head of a chameleon
