Points $A(0,0), B(9,6)$ and $C(6,12)$ are vertices of triangle $ABC$. Point $D$ is on segment $AB$ such that $2(AD) = DB$, point $E$ is on segment $BC$ such that $2(BE) = EC$ and point $F$ is on segment $CA$ such that $2(CF) = FA$. What is the ratio of the area of triangle $DEF$ to the area of triangle $ABC$? Express your answer as a common fraction.
