jack takes the hunters and creates their own"tribe".
He thinks Jack will harm him.
Jack cannot hurt Ralph in chapter 5 because they are both still bound by some remnants of their previous civilized society norms and values. Additionally, Ralph is the elected leader of the group, which still holds some authority and respect among the boys. The presence of Piggy, who represents intellectual reasoning and law and order, also acts as a deterrent to Jack's impulses at that moment.
In Chapter 5 of "Lord of the Flies," the tension between Ralph and Jack escalates as they disagree on priorities and leadership styles. Jack challenges Ralph's authority by hunting and neglecting upkeep duties. The boys start taking sides, gravitating towards either Ralph's order and civilization or Jack's chaos and savagery, which sets the stage for further conflict and power struggles.
In "Lord of the Flies," the meeting must not be about the beast in chapter 5. Instead, the meeting in this chapter focuses on the growing tensions between Ralph and Jack, particularly concerning priorities and responsibilities within the group.
In Chapter 5 of "Lord of the Flies," the boys vote on whether or not to build shelters. Ralph believes that shelters are essential for their survival, while Jack is more focused on hunting. The boys ultimately vote in favor of building shelters, with the majority supporting Ralph's viewpoint.
The meeting in chapter 5 of "Lord of the Flies" breaks up when Jack undermines Ralph's leadership by challenging his authority and suggesting the group should follow him instead. Jack's rebellious behavior and the boys' growing dissatisfaction with Ralph's leadership lead to the meeting's disbandment.
A crucial time when Ralph could have and should have exerted his authority was at the end of chapter 5: Beast from Water, when Jack said 'Bollocks to the rules." Ralph should have reminded everyone who was in charge and then insisted that they back him up when he ordered Jack to shut up and sit down. Instead by allowing Jack to disobey the rules he undermined both the rules and his own authority.
At the end of chapter 5: Beast from Water Piggy told Ralph how he felt about Jack, I quote... "He hates me. I dunno why. If he could do what he wanted--- you're alright, he respects you. Besides-- you'd hit him." Piggy also said... "I tell you what. He hates you too, Ralph---" And... "He can't hurt you: but if you stand out of the way he'd hurt the next thing. And that's me."
At the end of chapter 5: Beast From water Piggy tells Ralph that Jack..."He hates me. I dunno why." A little later he adds... "I tell you what. he hates you too, Ralph---." Piggy suggests that Jack hates Ralph because.. "You got him over the fire; an' you're chief and he isn't." he also thinks that Jack hates him because, "He can't hurt you: but if you stand out of the way he'd hurt the next thing. And that's me."
