Conflict - Simon and Tigotha Fall Out

I've just been reading some conflict ideas by Aiyana, Reese, Shayna and Isobel from Manor Lodge School.
Chapter 2 - Tigotha is forced into a bad situation
Tigotha is forced to do something bad by the bullies, and since she finds it difficult to know the difference between right and wrong she ends up being involved in child snatching for the Tubsters of Terror.
Simon sees the Tig and thinks that she has only been faking her friendship and really she has been working for the Tubsters of Terror.
Chapter 3 - Simon attempts to rescue the children from the Tubsters
Simon believes that the Tig is no longer his friend and does not trust her. He knows he must rescue the children from the Tubsters, but who will help him?
This is very interesting because I've also been considering a conflict that undermines Simon's strong friendship with Tigotha. Because of Simon's sad backstory, our readers will be really upset to hear that he's lost the only important person in his life. If our readers feel upset they will keep reading in the hope that the problem gets resolved.

What you've done is created a hook.

Well done for building on Tigotha's difficulty telling right from wrong. You've developed her character.

Child snatching is terrible thing to do. I think perhaps even a tig would know that it was wrong. However, I'm interested to see where this plot goes. I look forwards to reading the resolution next week.
