DREAMS - The Tunnel

Swar wants to go to a theka for a bottle of Teachers, after threatening the Blue Dart guys with her pencil. she has to pass a concrete tunnel on the way. suddenly, 42 angry and scarlet dead babies fly out of the tunnel, each wrapped in a page off her script. rattled, she marches through the tunnel and comes out the other side. eigya follows her on his cycle, his face blue with death. an entire battalion of blue-faced eigyas marches out of the tunnel on cycles. just when she thinks she's seen the worst, the scarlet dead babies screech out of their tyres and it snows - tiny pieces of her first draft gliding slowly to the music of the river flowing by.

ROCK ON!!!

P.S. - I think you've been hearing too many dead baby jokes before bedtime.

And you should take this up with Blue Dart quite strongly.
