Understanding Failure and Support in Friendship
The Childlike Empress:
Atreyu, why do you look so sad?
Atreyu:
I have failed you, Empress.
The Childlike Empress:
No, you haven't. You brought him with you.
Atreyu:
Who?
The Childlike Empress:
The earthling child. The one who can save us all.
Atreyu:
You knew about the earthling child?
The Childlike Empress:
Of course. I knew everything.
Atreyu:
My horse died! I nearly drowned. I just barely got away from the Nothing! For what?! To find out what you already knew?!
The Childlike Empress:
It was the only way to get in touch with an earthling.
Atreyu:
But I didn't get in touch with an earthling!
The Childlike Empress:
Yes, you did. He has suffered with you. He went through everything you went through, and now he has come here, with you. He is very close, listening to every word we say.
Bastian: [confused]
What?!
Atreyu:
Where is he?! If he's so close, why doesn't he arrive?!
The Childlike Empress:
He doesn't realize he's already a part of The NeverEnding Story.
Atreyu:
The NeverEnding Story"?! What's that?!
The Childlike Empress:
Just as he is sharing all your adventures, others are sharing his. They were with him when he hid from the boys in the bookstore.
Bastian: [cannot believe it]
But that's impossible!
The Childlike Empress:
They were with him when he took the book with the Auryn symbol on the cover, in which he's reading his own story, right now.
Bastian: [runs off and catches himself; goes back to the book]
I can't believe it! They can't be talking about me.
Atreyu:
What will happen when he doesn't appear?!
The Childlike Empress: [in a grave tone]
Then our world will disappear, and so will I.
Atreyu:
How could he let that happen?!
The Childlike Empress:
He doesn't understand that he's the one who has the power to stop it. He simply can't imagine that one little boy could be that important.
Bastian:
Is it really me? How could I make any difference?
Atreyu:
MAYBE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE HAS TO DO!!
Bastian:
WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO?!
The Childlike Empress:
He has to give me a new name.
Atreyu:
WHAT IF HE DOESN'T COME UP WITH THE RIGHT NAME?!
The Childlike Empress:
He's already chosen it. He just has to call it out.
Atreyu: [now desperate and hysterical]
WHERE IS HE?!?!?!? WHY ISN'T HE HERE?!?!?!
The Childlike Empress:
He still does not have the confidence.
Bastian: [the Nothing continues to consume the tower and another quake from the Nothing kills Atreyu]
But it's only a story, it's not real, it's only a story! ATREYU, NOOOO!!!
The Childlike Empress: [seeing Atreyu's death]
ATREYU!
The Childlike Empress: [to Bastian]
Don't you have the courage to save us, Bastian?
Bastian: [now scared and terrified]
I WISH I COULD!!
The Childlike Empress:
Why don't you do what you dream, Bastian?
Bastian: [on the verge of tears]
BUT I CAN'T! I HAVE TO KEEP MY FEET ON THE GROUND!!
The Childlike Empress: [as the Ivory Tower is seconds away from being consumed by the nothing]
Call my name! Please, call my name! BASTIAN, PLEASE!!! SAVE US!!!
Bastian: [finally giving in; climbs up to the window and yells at the storm]
ALL RIGHT! I'LL DO IT! I'LL SAVE YOU!! I WILL DO WHAT I DREAM!!! MOONCHILD!!!!!!
