I Need You Now

'It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now.'-Lady Antebellum

There are those that say that love can defeat anything and everything. They say that love will conquer all. There are those that say that true love never dies. Those are the people who don't know how it feels to be left behind.

They don't know what it's like to have your 'treu love' leave, to have them stomp on your heart and rip it out. No, those are the people who believe in fairy tales, and princes and brave knights who whisk you away. They are the ones who believe that knights and princes keep you safe from harm, keep you safe from the world. They are wrong because they have never been left behind and abandoned by their 'one'.

The badger watched carefully as she was pacing outside of the door impatiently. She had changed a lot since they had left and now you could say that on the outside it looked like she had an iron heart. But on the inside, deep down where no would could see, she had a kind heart. But it had been hurt, and tugged on. She had it broken, she was left behind, and she was broken.

"He said that he would be here in a moment." The badger tried to speak as nicely as he could, but he knew that it would affect her. This was close to the anniversary of the...incident.

"I know he said that he would be here in a moment but we don't have a moment! Everyday that we wait around is one day that they grow stronger!" A dwarf rolled his eyes and he scoffed at her, obviously not happy with this situation.

"Please as long as we have you, we will never be crushed." The dwarf again rolled his eyes, but this time he scoffed too.

"Please, because of them, Narnia fell to them! How can she help us?" The badger turned and looked at the dwarf for a moment and then he sighed.

"You still don't know who she is do you?" the dwarf looked at her and then he looked back at the badger.

"It can't be-she was supposed to be dead a long time ago." The badger looked over at her and saw that she was leaning up against a tree, in her own world.

"Aslan, the good Lion, kept her hidden to save her. He knew that we would need her help again." The dwarf sighed and he stuck his sword into the ground and rolled his eyes.

"Let me get this right. She is from the past, and she never left, never died, just so then she could help us again? How come she isn't old?" The badger smiled at the dwarf slightly and then he looked up at the sky.

"Aslan does mysterious things and we don't know why he does them. I don't know exactly what happened to her, but I do know that she is here now." The dwarf looked back over to her, and he looked over her once or twice before loking back at the badger.

"She's the same age?" The badger nodded and then he too looked back at her. He cleared his throat gently, and she looked over to them. Eyes quick and cautious, ready for a surprise attack if need be.

"He will be here." She sighed and she pushed herself away from the tree and she sat down on the edge of the river. She looked down into the river, and she looked taken back for a moment, and then she was back to normal again.

The badger heard a noise, and he turned his head sharply looking for the sound, when he saw the other dwarf. He sighed a breath of relief and he walked up to the other dwarf and greeted him warmly.

"That's her?" the badger looked over to her, then back at the dwarf and he nodded.

"She's so...young." the badger looked over at her, and saw her shoulders rigid. He quickly looked back and forth, hoping that nobody would create a problem.

"Eh, what do we need her for anyway?" The badger looked at the two dwarves who seemed to be in agreement and he sighed again.

"I told you..." The badger only got so far before one of the dwarves interrupted him.

"I know! Aslan, the great Lion, has brought her to help! Well where are the rest of them? Aren't they supposed to be with her? Isn't she..." the dwarf stopped in his trackes when he felt something brush up against his cheek. He turned his head to the side and he saw an arrow sticking out of the tree. He looked back to her, and he saw her standing there, holding her bow, glaring at him.

"They left me! They abandoned me! Do NOT compare me to them! I am not them! I did not do this to you!" One of the dwarves looked over her again and he saw the pain that she clearly tried to hide in her eyes. He could see it coming out, even thought you could see that she was trying to hide it.

"Alright, everyone calm down. Let's just get going to the house." The badger looked over to her, and he saw her standing in the same spot, still glaring. She looked over at him, and he swore that he saw tears in her eyes, but that was only for a moment, and then she had turned around and she started to stomp away from them.

The badger sighed and he looked over at the dawrf who was wiping a little blood off of his face. The dawrf looked at him, and he could see a little guilt in his eyes, and then it was gone and replaced with annoyance.

"I didn't like that, and I don't think I'll like her very much." The dwarf mumbled before he followed her, continuing to grumble to himself. The badger looked at the other dwarf, who was watching the whole thing, while looking quite amused.

"I think I quite enjoyed that don't you?" the badger looked at the dwarf seriously and then he crossed his arms over hsi chest.

"I think that that is quite enough! She is right. She did not abandon us. You should at least respect her for that." The dawrf looked at the badger and he rolled his eyes and pushed past him, also walking to the house. The badger looked at his friend walking away and he looked back up at the sky and closed his eyes for a moment.

"Aslan please, please help her get back to the place she was once at. She shouldn't be like this, she shouldn't." The badger, then opened his eyes, and he saw just the faintest break of dawn and he knew that he ahd to hurry back. Patrols were going to be going around her soon, and he couldn't be caught outside.
