The sign that came down from the world of grown-ups was a "sudden bright explosion and corkscrew trail across the sky". After that "a figure dropping swiftly beneath a parachute, a figure that hung with dangling limbs". From the description I think it must be an animal or human dropping with a parachute. It is very confusing because it doesn't give any further description about the figure so it can be a man sent to rescue them, it might be beast, it might be just someone dropped on this island by accident. This might symbolize two things. First, it might symbolize they are going to be rescued soon, because it could be something that will help them get rescued, a human, an adult, or something else. It is hard to know if it's an human or not, because Sam 'n Eric saw it "flying" through the forest and chasing them really fast and when Jack and Ralph went on searching the creature didn't leave any track on the ground. On the other hand it might be just the littuns freaking out, it might just be someone running really fast, the thing could have walk through the forest and Jack and Ralph just didn't see the tracks it leaved. Also, it can symbolize a "beast" they have to fight against, maybe Sam 'n Eric was NOT freaking out, maybe it's just flying over the ground. I hope Jack and Ralph will find out something soon.
