Jack is drawn to darkness. He chooses his dark side almost immediately in the story. He uses intimidation and fear to manipulate the other boys. At one point he even suggests hunting littluns,

When Robert mentions that Jack wants to use a real pig so that he can kill it, Jack responds by saying, "Use a littlun" (Golding, 165).
