Lotf 4&5
The boys find themselves falling into a pattern of daily living activities. Some start to hallucinate because of the immense heat. Piggy feels that they are mirages. ( he really tries to keep the order and fear out.) the younger boys or "littuns", are still playing and are still afraid of the beast. The older boys start picking on the younger ones. This represents the stress that they might feel in the situation. The boys start getting sick from all the fruit and realize that they really need meat. So does Jack. Jacks primal instincts kick in as he is still obsessed and has blood lust for the pig. He hunts. Jack and the other boys that tag along start losing themselves in the hunt. They forget about their duties of the fire, and break down into a sort of blood thirsty tribe. Piggy gets slapped by jack at an attempt to lecture him of the duties he hasent fulfilled. And simply wants the order to be maintained. But after this, Ralph and Jack then become enemies. The boys all start neglecting their duties and they aren't keeping their civilization as civil as it should be. They get yelled at by Ralph. Ralph really starts to lost order and control. The boys are still scared of the beast. One of the littuns admits to seeing one of the beasts in the water.
