Piggy was getting so fat these days, it was all the food Eric was feeding him and of course, he couldn't exercise much down in the pit. Piggy didn't complain about the food, it took his mind off the pain from his broken leg. Eventually, months later the pain stopped and Piggy's leg had ''healed'' itself but now it was deformed and Piggy could not walk on this leg. Not only was Piggy blind and fat, but he was also a cripple. Finally, Eric let him come out from the pIt. He lowered the ladder down and Piggy climbed it, it took time for Piggy to get out. Progress was slow and painful
When Piggy was finally out he collapsed on the ground and struggled to catch his breath
''You can kneel before me please'' Eric demanded
''Yes Sir'' Piggy said weakly and got on his knees in front of Eric
''Well now Piggy look at the state of you'' Eric said to him sadly ''You really are a mess'
''Yes, Sir, I know'' Piggy felt ashamed and disgusted. Jason was long gone now
''You will worship serve and obey me for the rest of your life'' Eric told him ''I am your king now''
''Yes Sir''
''No one is coming back for us you know Piggy. We've been left here forever, just the two of us''
''Yes Sir''
''I will be your Master and King forever''
''Yes Sir''
''You will do everything I tell you to do or else I will punish you severely''
''Yes Sir''
''You will kiss and lick my butt''
''Yes Sir''
''You will kneel and worship every day''
''Yes Sir''
''Good boy''
In a Juvenile detention center somewhere Maurice was doing similar to his scared and weak cellmate
His cellmate was poor James
James was kneeling before Maurice feeling scared
''You know I am going to be the king in here'' Maurice told him ''Just like Jack was on that island. If I have to rot in here for life then I may as well make the best of it and be the king. You understand James?''
''Yes Sir''
''You will be my top slave and help me to control all the other boys, you got it?''
''Yes Sir''
''I will be the king and you and every other boy here will fear me and obey and worship me''
''Yes Sir''
''Jack was a very good teacher and his legacy lives on'' Maurice said almost feeling sad for a moment
