Let’s make a long story short, shall we? Firstly, let me ask you a question, do you think ANYONE would go to an island that didn’t even EXIST in the world atlas? Secondly, what kind of parents would leave (more like abandoned) their own child on an island that has its own outlandish name – Dark Moon Island? Great. Just great. And now together, I and Derrick, spending our precious holiday on this blasted island that always give me the creeps. It would be fun spending it at Chicago with my parents if they hadn’t gone there to attend a serious business meeting. You can’t blame them, thought, this trip is very crucial, make one mistake and it would affect the whole company. Mr.Taboon, the owner of the only motel on this island, is very obliging and promise to take care of us while they were gone. And that means we’re stuck here for a whole week, eating nothing but disgusting seafood and nauseous tropical cuisine. Still, every isolated island has a secret behind. It’s either pleasant, or dreaded. Derrick and I had a fun time today exploring the island, exhausted, we flopped on the bed and talk, that’s when we saw something. In addition, we also found some despicable yet vengeful secret about this island. Mr.Taboon, standing just beside me, unnoticed. He gives us a gloomy yet cold grin, licks his lips, and went into convulsion. I couldn’t figure out what he’s doing, until I experienced the horror that might haunt me forever. Cracks. Cracks on his face, they’re spreading around his body, deep into the flesh. I get out of bed, in case his blood oozed or sprayed on me, but no. There’s no blood. As the cracks begin to extend, his body fell apart, split into two like a pea. We gaped and screamed in horror. ... ... middle of paper ... ...ke that. Two months later, I’m watching the news on the television. “A ship and an airplane reported missing two days ago around two and a half miles from Timber Island. Locals said they didn’t hear or saw anything during the prediction day of disappearance of the following vehicles. The government felt mystified by the disappearance and feared that they might suffer an accident or technical difficulties. All countries will help searching for the missing vehicles. Now here’s the latest topical news about……” The female reporter said in a clear and loud voice. I didn’t hear what she said next, cause right now, a shiver came shaking down my spine. This seems ridiculously impossible. They should’ve heard or saw everything. Crashing, sinking, or even, maybe, screaming. But me and Derrick experienced things much more impossible than this. We know better.

Every year thousands of tourists visit the islands of Antigua, they come from all over the world to drain their sorrows of reality by ridding their pockets of the cash they strive to work so hard for. Although Antigua seems to be filled with relaxation, sunshine and rainbows, and devoid of anything that could ruin somebody’s week, unfortunately, Antigua is quite the opposite of that of what we imagine. Author Jamaica Kincaid argues this false reality tourists imagine about the island, by addressing many issues she witnessed while growing up in Antigua.
When the children become stranded on the island, the rules of society no longer apply to them. Without the supervision of their parents or of the law, the primitive nature of the boys surfaces, and their lives begin to fall apart. The downfall starts with their refusal to gather things for survival. The initial reaction of the boys is to swim, run, jump, and play. They do not wish to build shelters, gather food, or keep a signal fire going. Consequently, the boys live without luxury that could have been obtained had they maintained a society on the island. Instead, these young boys take advantage of their freedom and life as they knew it deteriorates.
