In chapter 9 or Lord of the Flies, Ralph really changes and finds himself in a bad situation. Previously, Jack and Ralph had split up and the group of boys had split up too. Jack invites Ralph's tribe to a feast. During the feat, they talk about killing pigs, and then it eventually evolved into a chant about killing the beast. Simon then choses to stumble into the clearing on his hands and knees. The boys think he is the beast and beat him until he is barley alive. He ends up dying on the sand and washed away into the ocean.
In this chapter, Ralph has to compete with Jack for the most people. He ends up getting Sam and Eric, Piggie, and the little kids. Ralph know that they will really have to work hard to survive, and is worried that more people will leave, because originally, he has more. When Jack invites them to the feast, lots of them leave his tribe. Ralph realizes that the people that go with Jack probably will not survive, because Jack acts without thinking, and doesn't care about survival. Basically, it is survival of the fittest. Whoever has the most will to live and strategic skill with outwit the others and survive and find a way off the island, that it slowly turning into heaven vs hell.
