Ralph feels a mixture of grief, guilt, and desperation when Piggy dies during the game. He is devastated by Piggy's death and realizes the seriousness of their situation on the island. Ralph also feels responsible, as he failed to protect Piggy and maintain order among the boys.
At the begining of the chapter, while Ralph and Piggy are bathing in the pool Ralph asked "Where's everybody?" Ralph specifically refers to Samneric and Bill, which would indicate that he believed that there were at least five boys in his group, including himself. Piggy pointed beyond the platform and replied "That's where they have gone. Jack's party." So in fact all that actually remained of Ralph's group were Ralph and Piggy. By the morning after the party, and the killing of Simon, Samneric had rejoined Ralph's group.
The rationalization is undertaken mainly by Piggy. Ralph is only too aware they the boys collectively murdered Simon is a frenzied attack and he is deeply upset and filled with remorse. Piggy tries to down play their role insisting that it was a combination of the storm, the dance and even Simon's own fault, for wandering around in the dark, which led to his death. Piggy's advice is to simply forget about it as it can't be changed and thinking about it serves no purpose.
After Jack leaves the meeting stating that he isn't going to play anymore gradually other boys drift away to join him. By the time he throws his feast on the beach most of the biguns have joined his tribe. After the raid on Ralph's camp, and the theft of Piggy's glasses, the only boys who aren't part of Jack's tribe are Ralph, Piggy and the twins. At castle rock Piggy is killed and the twins are captured leaving Ralph as the lone outsider from Jack's tribe.
He experiences some hormones inside him and has to take it out on piggy because he cant hide the feelings anymore. Ralph said it happens since they don't have Internet their to ejaculate.
