The first main character is Sanger Rainsford, a big-game hunter. I suppose the second could be Whitney, but he was not a large character in the story. The next character who is the second main character and antagonist is Zaroff, a famous Russian game hunter.
General Zaroff is surprised to see Rainsford at the end of the story because he thought Rainsford had perished in their game of hunting humans. Zaroff was not expecting Rainsford to turn the tables on him and outsmart him in their deadly game.
An example of flashback in The Most Dangerous Game is when Rainsford is being hunted and he thinks back to a time when he was in Africa.
The climax is the turning point of the story. It mostly falls in the middle or at the end of the story. In other words it is when Rainsford changes his personality.
Rainsford kills General Zaroff, therefore ending the hunt.
