Ralph desires to stay with the savages at Castle Rock because he believes it is crucial for him to assert his authority and maintain control over the group. He wants to show that he is not afraid and to keep the boys focused on being rescued rather than descending into chaos. Additionally, Ralph wants to challenge the power dynamics within the group and prevent Jack from gaining complete control.

Lord of the Flies who said it after all you arent' savages really and being rescued isn't a game?
Ralph say this when he has called his last meeting and is talking to Samneric and Piggy. When he mentioned going to confront Jack and his tribe at Castle Rock he said that they should go as they were. Samneric pointed out that Jack and his tribe would be "painted up" to which Ralph replied, "well we won't be, we're not savages and being rescued isn't a game."
How does piggy die in the end of he story?
Piggy and Ralph are in a last attempt to stop the savagery at the Castle Rock, where the savages have camped. Roger is atop the castle as the others argue, and Roger pivots a lever that causes a boulder to fall, and it falls onto Piggy, shattering the conch and knocking him over the edge to his death.
How are the savages protecting the entrance of their part of the island?
One important example of this 'protecting' as you say, is after Piggy dies and Ralph is alone. Sam and Eric are tortured and forced into joining Jack's tribe and they are guarding the pathway up to Castle Rock. Ralph sneaks up and talks to Samneric (as they are referred to) Apart from that important conversation the savages usually protect the entrance with their spears. Two savages at a time. Samneric are scared, 'gibbering' as Golding writes, and Samneric are new to the tribe so they either don't want spears, or Jack doesn't trust them. Hope it helped :)

Ralph has been told that Jack is hunting for him. He has been told that Jack has a stick that is sharpened at both ends.

Ralph says, "Suppose we go, looking like we used to, washed and hair brushed... After all we aren't savages really and being rescued isn't a game." When Samneric point out that Jack and his tribe will be painted Ralph replies, "Well we won't be painted... because we aren't savages."

In lord of the flies what are the reasons jack gives for Ralph is a poor chief?

Ralph, Sam and Eric, and Piggy = To tend to the fire and get rescued. Jack and the Savages = To have fun
