In this chapter, Sam and Eric are outside watching the fire while the other boys are trying to sleep in the shelters. They heard some noises behind them and started running. They said that it followed them back to the shelters. I think that Sam and Eric would have been terrified in this chapter. They had heard different stories about how horrible the beast is. Now that they had actually seen it, they knew that they would have to run away to save themselves.
When Sam and Eric told Ralph about this, Ralph decided that this was getting to dangerous. He knew that he would have to hunt the beast in order to end their fears for the beast. Although they didn't really know what to expect, the older boys still went off to find it leaving the littluns' with Piggy. I think, knowing how scared all of the boys were, they would be some what excited knowing that their fears would soon end.
