Indra had tried to stay awake for as long as possible. She hadn't fought with the scary people when they'd taken her down in to the earth; she hadn't protested against the inspection by the lady with the plants; she had tried to eat what had been brought to her, or drink when she was let out... And through it all, awake. Desperately watching each face, each shadow.
When the man came this time, she was asleep while sitting up. Her chin tucked against her breast-bone, neck arcing.
She heard the voice in her dream and was pulled awake, as the dream turned dark and twisting, like the tunnel.
Her body tipped over, and she punched the dirt to stop herself from falling; snorting a breath of the stale air, as Indra came fully alert with terror.

Come out, girl.
