Tiger Lily, September 11

I am about halfway into the book, Tiger Lily. So far it's really good. Since my last post, some exciting things have happened. The last I read before this week was the letter Peter Pan had left Tiger Lily to find him. She contemplated doing so, but decided she would to retrieve her necklace the Englander had gave her that Pan took. She finds the hideout is underground, where all the Lost Boys are asleep when she arrives. Eventually, they awake, give Tiger Lily a tour, and ask her to come back again. The boys are extremely rude. They'd constantly spoke their thoughts about Tiger Lily. If she was a girl, if she was pretty or ugly, how she acted. When she leaves, Pan walks her out and decides they should be friends. Tiger Lily accepts the offer but says she will not come back.
But when Tiger Lily returns to the village, she encounters more trouble than she'd ever expected. The citizens had announced Tiger Lily cursed a second time when Aunt Fire burns herself alive. Tiger Lily, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with Aunt Fires death, but people will have their suspicions. Then, near a week after the death Tiger Lily returns to eating with the other girls of the village for dinner with two feathers in her hair instead of one.
Three days after the village buried Aunt Fire, Tiger Lily returned to the Lost Boys. They weren't home when she got there, so she tracked them. They were on the beach throwing a party for what they think is Tootles' birthday. Tiger Lily dances with them and Peter Pan.
When she wakes up in her bed the next morning, Aunt Fire's wedding bracelets were left to her. This symbolized that the wedding was still on. Tiger Lily, by tradition had to wear the bracelets and go into town to show everyone the news.
