This is a short story I wrote as a creative writing piece in school. It is based off of the novel "The Lord Of the Flies" by William Golding. The story is told through Roger's eyes after the boys are rescued from the island. It is advised to read the novel before reading this "spin-off", but not required. Enjoy :) ((I do not claim ownership of the names in the story, I only came up with the plot)) ((Quotes from the story are quoted and cited)

A gender-flipped adaption of William Golding's classic "Lord of the Flies". What started as an Arial attack on an English jet ended in a group of young schoolgirls plummeting to a remote island in the middle of the South Pacific. Ruth, a courageous young woman, has always had her ambitions minimized by the men that she encountered. As she is stuck on the island, Ruth is only threatened by Jacqueline Merridew; the head girl of the Queen Mary Academy Choir. Jacqueline is short-tempered, fire-headed, destructive and slowly letting her hatred toward the patriarchal society of 1950's England ignite. Ruth tries to lead the survivors to rescue but the malicious Jacqueline quickly lures them to her side with promises of meat and domination.
