She woke up with a gasp.

Migisi immediately shot up and looked around, the first thing she saw being the green fire, but unlike last night, this fire was a beautiful, calming green, and the wood didn't even appear like it was even being burnt. Still breathing hard however, she continued looking around, searching for the creatures who attempted to steal her soul.

But she was alone.

Migisi sat there, wondering if what she was seeing was real or fake. Then, slowly, she trailed her hands over herself, feeling soft but solid flesh, felt her soft hair, and could feel how exhausted she felt. Finally she looked down at her hands, feeling solid skin that she could not see through.

She could've cried in relief. She was back. She was safe.

She was safe.

The tears came forth before she could stop them, and Migisi began to cave onto herself as she began to sob, the green fire being her only companion. Though, from the sound of people working, she knew it was morning.

How she wanted to join them, but the medicine man had not come for her.

The sun must not be at the peak yet.

She was going to be alone for a long while, but Migisi didn't want to be alone at this time.

She wanted her mother.

She wanted Honan.

She wanted Elsu.

She wanted anyone to come get her so she could talk to them about what had happened to her the night before, who those shadow people were, and why she was being forced out of the tent when it was supposed to protect her.

She didn't like this place anymore, not even the fire that burned that beautiful color.

As the people continued to work outside however, Migisi felt herself quietly sobbing and resting her head back on the buffalo hive.

She prayed that no more nightmares would plague her as she returned to the world of slumber.
