Thank you to presidentuziel for reviewing. Reviews really help me and encourage me. Also the song is called It's The Climb by Hannah Montana according to my nieces and lets hope they're right.

I was out for several more hours after I fainted. Eva was really worried about me. I hadn't slept for so long as I did at that moment. Of course I was not controlling my none existent sleep pattern. When I woke up I wished I had died. The sun was high in the sky and Eva was still there and so were Murgath and his dragon. None of them had realized I was awake yet.

I silently got up and left the clearing hoping Eva would forgive me for abandoning her but I had to get away before I was betrayed. I knew as soon as Eva had realized what I'd done I was in for a mind lecher from her. I kept going before the lecher came which was a while.

Elonda, where are you? I heard her but I didn't stop running but continued walking away from them.

I woke up, saw the danger, and ran from it. I said as if to say, I'm not coming back anytime soon.

I realized you woke up and ran away but the danger is not here. She said really annoyed with my stubborn people in one place together for a long time can't be healthy. Eva and I were just one classic example of that feeling.

Those two you're with. That dragon and that rider are not our friends. Eva I warned you about the Forsworn several times. Why didn't you listen to me? They are both evil and part of the Forsworn. They are not our friends but our enemies.

You're wrong Elonda. I heard the whole true story of what happened. She fell silent so suddenly it worried me. I soon realized why.

You're not going to tell me then, I was not in the mood for her to tell me she knew something. This was not the time to tell me knew something and not tell me what it was.

I'll let him tell you the whole story if you hold still and stop running. She said it as if I was standing next to Murgath.

I'm walking and how is he going to catch up with me? I'm faster then anyone that I know. I said annoyed with her all the more.

She didn't have to answer me, I heard the noises behind me. He was chasing me. I took off running as fast as I could go. I'd never met anyone who can run as fast as me until that moment. He caught up with me, put his arms around my waist, and pulled me back to him.

"Elonda, stop trying to run from me," He said as I struggled to escape from his hold though it was gentle.

I ignored him and tried for what seems like forever to escape. He kept a hold and I couldn't get away. His hold was very firm but also very gentle.

He finally said, "Hear me out okay. If you still want to run from me after you listen to me I won't stop you from running but first you must listen to me. I'll let go only if don't run you'll listen to my story okay."

I stopped struggling, "Let go of me and then I'll listen to you. That doesn't mean I'll believe you."

"Look Eva and Thorn are waiting for us to return also." He waited for me to say what he knew I'd say. Eva had warned him.

"Thorn? You named your dragon Thorn?" I said as he let go of me. I slipped out of his grasp and turned to face him "Why Thorn?"

"Eva told me you'd pretend not to know that already even though you only know part of the story but it's not the truth. I'll explain when we get back to them. You have to keep an open mind Elonda."

He took my hand and held it gently to his lips. "Oh man I've missed you so much."

"What?" I pulled my hand away.

"I've missed you."

"You've been so busy getting a dragon and becoming part of the Forsworn I didn't even realized I existed anymore. News flash Buddy, I've been in hiding for so long that I'm surprised you even recognize me."

"I'll always know who you are Elonda. Can you do something for me please before we head back?"

"What?"

"Sing."

"Sing?"

"I missed hearing you sing most of all. I loved listening to your voice so please sing for me just once."

I finally relented and started to sing.

"I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming.
But there's a voice inside my head saying,
"You'll never reach it."

Every step I'm taking.
Every move I make feels.
Lost with no direction.
My faith is shaking.

But I gotta keep trying.
Gotta keep my head held high.

There's always gonna to be another mountain.
I'm always gonna want to make it move.
Always gonna be an uphill battle.
Somebody's gonna have to lose.

Ain't about how fast I get there.
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side.
It's the climb.

The struggles I'm facing.
The chances I'm taking.
Sometimes might knock me down.
But no, I'm not breaking.

I may not know it.
But these are the moments that.
I'm gonna to remember most yeah.
Just gotta keep going.

And I, I got to be strong.
Just keep pushing on.

Cause there's always gonna be another mountain.
I'm always gonna want to make it move.
Always gonna be an uphill battle.
Somebody's gonna have to lose.

Ain't about how fast I get there.
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side.
It's the climb, yeah.

There's always gonna be another mountain.
I'm always gonna want to make it move.
Always gonna be an uphill battle.
Somebody's gonna have to lose.

Ain't about how fast I get there.
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side.
It's the climb.

Keep on moving, keep climbing.
Keep the faith girl.
It's all about, it's all about the climb.
Keep the faith, keep the faith."

"That's more of a message for you then me." Murgath said kissing me gently.
