How much further till
we get to the temple?

Not too far
Sure you don’t want a ride?

No, I’m enjoying the walk.

You don’t have to come with me,
you know?

After all, it’s a family thing.

I think it’s wonderful,
honoring your brother like this.

It’s something I do every
year at this time.

You two must have been very close.

We were.

Maybe I will take that ride.

I always wanted to
have a brother.

That must have made
your sister happy.

I mean, in addition to Lila.

By this flame,
I call on the three Fates

The Maiden,

the Mother,

and the Crone.

Comfort my brother, Lyceus,

whose life you cut short
this day eleven years ago.

In his memory, I ask it.

I wish I could have known
your younger brother.

If I hadn’t insisted that
we rally against Cortese,

you might have.

Xena, it’s not your fault.

He chose to stand for
something he believed in.

Yeah, me.

Gabrielle,

you don’t know
what it’s like to take a life,

let alone cause the death of
someone you love.

The gods grant you never do.

I know you
You’re Xena!

Xena,behind you!

He’s just a boy.

Xena,

you

know

us.

Everyone knows the
three faces of Fate.

But few glimpse them.

And fewer still incur our debt.

You saved our temple.

Name your reward.

If it’s our to bestow,
it’s yours.

Reward
for what?

For killing a boy barely
out of his childhood?

I don’t want a reward;
I want that boy’s life back.

By the gods,

I wish I’d never followed
the sword in the first place.

So be it
all is restored.

You mean you can
bring him back?

All is restored,

until the first time
you draw blood in anger.

What are you saying?

Spill so much as a drop
of blood in rage,

and everything changes back.

But I’m a warrior.
How can I obey that?

As a warrior,
you can’t.

Gabrielle?

Xena!
Hey, where are you?

Lyceus?

Lyceus? Lyceus! Oh!

Hey, sisters!

What are you grinning at?

OK, what is it,
what’s wrong?

Wrong?

Well, you keep
staring at me.

Is my face dirty
or something?

No, it’s perfect.

You sure you’re all right?

I’m not sure about
anything anymore.

You seem sort of,
I don’t know funny.

Look who’s talking

the guy who still wears
his Virillus token.

Hey, come on.
Lots of guys still wear their tokens.

Besides, it’s good luck
it saved my life, remember?

How could I forget?

Yeah, well I never will.

If that arrow had a’ hit
me instead of my token,

I’d be a memory.

Instead, you’re a grown man.

Look, uh,
I can handle things at the inn.

Why don’t you go home--
maybe lie down-- relax.

Go home.

I have.

11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

Enough!

Anymore, and the slave’d pass out.

And they make much better
examples to the rest

when they’re writhing in pain.
Don’t you agree?

Absolutely, though

I admit my Amazons rarely

give me the pleasure of
hearing them scream.

Still, given time

I’ll break them.

Soon, the whole world will
feel our boots on their necks.

Or our whips on their backs
if they resist us.

Resist?!
By the gods,

I’d like to see any fool who tries.

Hello, Xena.

Good morning.

Hi.
Good morning.

One move and I break it.

OK, I’m a statue.
Bad day at the inn?

Maphias?

Of course
who else?

Unless you’ve got another
suitor on the side.

Suitor?

N, no, I mean, I mean,
of course I don’t I hope.

Well, good.

Then let me show you
a few moves of my own.

Something wrong?

What could be wrong?

You’re not gonna try

and postpone the wedding again,
are you?

Why would I want to do that?

You tell me.

First, it was Cortese’s attack,

then the town’s reconstruction.

I’m warning you, Xena.

You keep putting me off like this,

and I’m liable to give up

in ten or fifteen years.

I’ll keep that in mind.

Do. After all,

it was the last thing we promised her

we ought to make good on it.

Promised
who?

Mother.

Xena?

Maphias said you were here.

I just, just had to see

I guess I’m having trouble
accepting it, you know?

I know.

It’s been nearly ten years now,

and I still feel responsible.

You?

It broke her heart losing
everything to Cortese-- but

what else could I do?

You were there
we had to run.

Lyceus, it is not your fault,
believe me.

If it’s anybody’s fault,
it’s mine.

Sure,
and what could you have done?

Fought Cortese yourself?

On second thought,

that might have been
something to see.

Listen,
I’m just gonna wait outside.

Be there in a bit.

All right.

Mother
I never meant for this to happen.

I just wanted that boy’s life back.

And now, I’ve got
another chance at life,too.

So, I’m gonna take it.

The hardest thing is
losing you and Gabrielle.

But it makes it easier just
knowing that in this life,

I never shamed you.

And Gabrielle never
left her family,

and I never led Lyceus
to die in battle.

And I know that’s what
you would have wanted.

It’s like Xena,

Warrior Princess,
never existed.

But the world’s a better
place without her.

I don’t know maybe it’s
just a brother thing, but

she’s not herself today.

Yeah,
I sensed that myself.

You two have a fight
or something?

Trust me, if we’d had a fight,
I’d have noticed no,

it’s something else.

Like what?

Well, I’m not sure.

At first I thought
it was cold feet.

You know
about the wedding.

Well, given the groom,
can you blame her?

Hey,
whose side are you on?

It’s odd, though, when I mentioned
our promise to your mother,

it was almost like she was

hearing it for the first time.

She’s been that way all day
sort of foggy and dazed.

Maybe she’s coming
down with something.

Hey look,
if you’re really worried,

I could talk to her
see what’s going on.

Would you? I mean,
it’s probably nothing, but

she’s all the family I’ve got.

Not all.

Hey!

Thanks.

Please.

Hold on

What do you think you’re doing?

We’re here to place an order
two wagonloads of food and

hay to be delivered by
midday tomorrow.

That a problem?

No, but I’ll need some dinars--
as good faith.

You wanna see some good faith?
Start praying

and if I spare you,
that’s as good as it gets.

Oh, I’m sorry.

I-- I was just checking
the price of this rug.

Are you all right?
I guess I don’t know my own strength.

Can you ever forgive me?

Next time, watch what you’re doing.

You might hurt someone.

Well, don’t just stand there

bring in the slaves to fetch dinner!

Quick thinking.

Thanks.

Guess you’ll be doing quite
a lot of that unless

you’re tired of the quiet life.
If so, you know the remedy.

I do.

But I’m through with fighting,

and nothing’s going to change that.

Watch it, slave girl.

Move!

Oh, you clumsy fool!

I’ll teach you.

Don’t touch her.

Out of my way,
unless you wanna join her.

I won’t let you beat her.

Won’t let me?

Wait! Stop!
I can explain;

it’s all a misunderstanding
right, Darling?

You see,
we’re getting married soon,

which means we’re in the
market for a house slave-

Isn’t that so, Sweetheart?

she's right- this girl
should be perfect.

But if I’ve told her once,

I’ve told her a thousand times
ask before you examine the goods.

Isn’t that true, my love?

Yes, that’s true.
So, how much?

Forget it.

Mezentius likes her too much
to sell her at any price.

Mezentius.

Ready to go!

Right--
Load everyone into the wagons.

Come on, you worthless slave.
Come on. Move!

Gabri--

Let go, they’re taking her away.

What do you think you’re doing?!

Saving your neck!
What’s gotten into you, today?

Lyceus is worried, and so am I.
That’s why I’m here.

Lyceus sent you?

Good thing he did, too.
What were you doing,

interfering like that?

I wasn’t interfering!
I was trying to save a fr

to save a girl from being beaten.

She was a slave.
The way you were acting,

you’d think slavery was a crime.

It is.

Don’t give me that argument again.

It’s very generous and noble, but,

when are gonna learn that
you’ve gotta go along to get along?

That’s how the world works.

And you can’t change the world,
Xena no matter what you think.

He’s wrong, you know?

One drop of blood-- and the world
changes back to what it was.

No, no.
This world might not be perfect,

but my world wasn’t perfect either.

And I won’t take my
brother’s life not again.

And your friend.
What about her life?

I can change that.

All I have to do is free her,

and Gabrielle will be fine.

You sound very sure.

But as you said, things
are different here.

People too.

This is Gabrielle
we’re talking about.

How different can she be?

It won’t work
They’ve gotta know we’re coming,

or they won’t be scared.
Give me that bread.

If the village knows
we’re coming,

they’ll mount a defense.

Yeah?

That’s why we want to
surprise them.

Where’s the fun in that?

Let them put up a defense;
my men need the exercise.

I wanna minimize casualties.

Since when do you
care about villagers?

Since they became
potential slaves

fewer casualties--
higher profits.

Yeah, well higher profits
would be good

especially when you’re
dividing them by three.

Right,
sweet thing?

Yeah, I know
three’s a lot.

But by combining your muscle,

my strategies

and Caputius’ deadly arts,

we’ll more than triple our take.

The three of us will be a
regular force of nature.

Not so fast,
sweet thing more wine.

Yes, sir.

Our first move is
the most important.

What’s the word from Amphipolis?

Ripe for the picking

like some other
things around here.

Hey, sweet thing.

A guy by the name of Lyceus

could give us trouble,
though.

According to my spies,
he and his sister

stood up to Cortese
a few years back

before they were
forced into the hills.

If they thought
Cortese was bad,

what’ll they think of us?

Crazy!

Your sister has totally
lost her mind!

Taking on a slave boss--
and not just any slave boss,

but one who works for Mezentius.

To tell you the truth,
I’m relieved.

Relieved?

She could have been hurt,
or worse.

Xena?

Oh, that’s right.

You two practice fighting
and swordplay

while these guys
are professionals.

They hurt people for a living.

We may not get paid to fight.

But I’d put us up against
the best they’ve got.

Well then you’d lose.

And,and, for what?

To stop someone you
don’t even know

from being legally punished?

To stop someone

anyone from being abused,
legal or not.

Oh, gods deliver me
You’re as bad as she is!

What’s so bad about wanting
to help someone?

Well, nothing, as long as

you don’t get hurt in the process.

So, Xena didn’t get hurt.

Not yet.

Sorry,

we’re closed-- you’ll have to
come back tomorrow.

Oh, it’s you, Xena.
Forget something?

No, no I,I just wanted to get
some, ah one of those.

I’ll get you a fresh one.

So I guess you’ll be
taking those

supplies out to Mezentius
tomorrow, huh?

It’s like dealing with Ares himself.

But a man’s gotta
make a living, right?

Right.

So, your men will be
leaving early?

Gone by first light;
back by dark.

Why,
are you looking for a job?

No, ha-ha.
No, just dinner.

There you go.
Is that all you need?

It’ll be fine. Thanks.
Put it on the tab.

You should’ve seen him,
Lyceus.

Petty son-of-a-blood
sucking Bacchae.

That’s what all slavers are.

You act like it’s news.

Why do I think I wanted
to stop Cortese?

Not just to get the town back.

Men like that can’t
go unchallenged

Look what happened to
the Amazons.

The Amazons?

Yeah, I guess they’re a good
example,aren’t they?

Sure.

No one challenged the warlord

who started things with
them and the Centaurs-

and now where are they?

Dead, mostly

or enslaved by the same
scum who tricked them.

What was his name?

Cretan. No, Crouton.

Krykus.

Yeah, right another charmer.

Seems like everywhere
you look these days,

things are going
from bad to worse.

And, no one’s doing a thing
to stop it-- except you.

Me?

Why, going up against
a slave boss like you did.

Guess all that sparring
finally paid off, huh?

Next thing you know, you’ll be
taking on Mezentius himself.

Don’t think I wouldn’t love it.

No, there’s gotta be
another way to go.

It’s not your fault the
world’s the way it is.

And with Mezentirus lording
it safely in his castle,

what can you do?

You’re drunk!

So?

You shouldn’t be allowed on the road!
Move on!

That’s it, move.

Shut up!

Come on, you slave!

Don’t worry, it’s me.

I was at the market yesterday,
remember?

Yeah, I remember.

You tried to buy me.
What do you want?

To get you out of here.

As soon as it’s clear,
we make our move.

But stick close
timing is everything.

You’re crazy.

The only move
I’m making is back to work.

No, wait.

Why?

Do you even know what
they do to runaway slaves?

You ever seen it?

Oh, Gabrielle,
I’m so sorry.

How do you know my name?

Who are you?

My name is Xena--
I just want to help you.

Right.

Gabrielle my brother,
Lyceus and I

We can hide you until it’s safe.

Lyceus?

The same Lyceus who
stood against Cortese?

Before he ran for the hills,
I mean.

How do you know about that?

I heard ‘em talking
Mezentius and Krykus.

They think I’m like an animal.

But I hear, and I remember.

Myzentius and Krykus?

Yes

They’re sworn enemies.

So is Caputius.

He’s gonna join ‘em, too,
come tomorrow.

All three of them together.

Gabrielle,

we must tell my brother what you know.

If those three warlords combine,

no one is safe.

I’m not going anywhere.

So, you’re just gonna let these
three kill and destroy

and do nothing about it.

I don’t buy that-- not from you.

You don’t even know me.

Maybe you don’t know yourself.

What do you mean,
she’s gone?

Gone, as in not here.

Since when?

I don’t know, since before
I got up, though.

I thought maybe the two of you,
you know?

No, I haven’t seen her since yesterday.

Oh, well-- maybe she went
for a walk or a ride.

Oh yeah, maybe.

You don’t think she’s in
some sort of trouble?

Let’s hope not.

You!

What are you doing
with this mead?

I’m taking it to the fire to mull.

I take my mead full strength

Bring me a cup!
Yes, sir.

Bar’s closed.

Put out the fire!

Here you go.

Give me the broom!

Get on the plank!

What?

Get ready to fly,
Gabrielle.

What are you doing?

Bye boys.

I hate long flights.

Welcome to freedom, Gabrielle.

My mother was about your size,
so this ought to fit.

It’s beautiful.

So was she.

Guess I’ll leave you to change.

Why are you doing this?

I know what you said about
wanting to help me

but if there’s one
thing I’ve learned,

it’s that you can’t trust anyone.

Now, what about you?

Guess,
you need another slave, huh?

No.
You’re right, though.

There is a reason I’m doing this.

You remind me of my best friend.

I do?

When I look at you,
I see, the purest,

the kindest person
I’ve ever known.

Someone who’s full of wonder,
and, and stories,

and would never give up
on anything or anyone.

Then you better look again.
It’s not me.

Lyceus, relax.
I’m sure he’s fine.

I don’t like it.

Maphias should have
been back by now.

Maybe he’s having trouble
convincing the others.

Well, I have to admit
the thought of three warlords

banding together
does sound pretty unbelievable.

I’m sure that’s what
they’re counting on--

the element of surprise.

Yeah? Well, they’re the ones
who are gonna be surprised

when we counter their
attack with one of our own.

What I’ve thought was Maphias

and I will lead the
attack through here,

while you and the
others arm yourselves

and do what you can here and here.
What do you think?

Lyceus, I can’t.

Sure you can.
Don’t underestimate yourself.

You’re nearly as strong as I am,
and better with a sword.

The fact is, if I didn’t need
you to organize the others,

I’d have you riding with me.

No, I mean I

Excuse me.

Xena, am I interrupting?

No, not at all.
Please, come in.

Won’t you have a seat?

Thank you.

It’s too good to be true.

I know what you mean.

It’s all right--
you’re safe here.

It’s just Maphias.

Did you bring the others?

It’s all right
they just want the slave.

I made a deal.
We give her back;

they leave us alone
no problems.

Leave her alone!

Take ‘em all!

Hey, what are you doing?
We have a deal?

Deal’s changed.

Why, you lying piece

Come on!

Xena! Here, catch!

What’s wrong with you?

Lyceus.

Xena!

Try cutting against the grain.

I’m surprised you care one
way or the other, seeing

how you sold us out.

Aren’t you confusing
me with Maphias?

At least Maphias thought
he was protecting us.

You just gave up.

We could’ve taken those guys,

but you didn’t even try.
Why not?

You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.

Well, try me!
‘Cause right now,

I don’t know what to believe.

I thought we felt the same
way about these monsters!

We do.

Then why didn’t you fight?!
I saw you Xena

you wanted to!
Why didn’t you pick up the sword?!

Because I,Because I was afraid.

We’re all afraid to die, Xena.

But for me, some things are
worth fighting for you,

our friends, Gabrielle.

These men have
gotta be stopped!

I know, and given time

Given time,
they’ll be unstoppable.

Look, maybe it’s a lost cause

but I’d rather die_fighting
these bastards,

then live with myself if I don’t.

Gabrielle?

If it wasn’t for me,

none of this would have happened.

You’re right.

If it wasn’t for you

I would never have known
how it felt to be free again.

I don’t know whether to
thank you or to hate you.

Hate me?

At least, before,

I’d forgotten what a real life was.

You showed me all of that.
You gave me hope.

You made me think

that maybe it wasn’t too late for me.

But now

I’m sorry.

I reminded you of your friend.

No, you are my friend.

All right, you three, look alive

so as I can tell you from the others.

Which one does Caputius want?

The boy.

Think you can help me with the

Maphias.

I made a big mistake, last night.

But I figure--better late than never.
Right?

Right.

Hey! You gonna keep us hanging
around here all day?

I guess this means

we’re postponing
the wedding again?

Let’s get out of one fix before
we jump into another.

It’s about time you showed up.

Well, it took me awhile to
wake up, but I have.

OK,here’s how things stand.

All three warlords are
meeting in the great hall.

So if we hurry,

we can be gone and out of here

before they even know we’re missing.

Any questions?

Yeah-- Where’s Lyceus?

All right, you men.
Stow it!

I’m about to make a toast

to the fiercest fighting force
the world will ever see.

Thanks for the tribute.
Now, I’ll earn it.

We’ll see about that.
Get him!

Welcome to the party!

What are you waiting for?
Kill them!

Right!

Maphias-- Catch!

Where are your
table manners?

Get a sword!

No.

Arm yourself!

I can’t.

Don’t fight destiny!

Gabrielle!

Here’s your sweet thing.

Goodbye, Lyceus.

Xena, behind you!

Get up.

You’ve got a
second chance.

Swear you won’t
waste it by killing.

I swear it!

Get outta here!

He dropped something.

It’a Virillus token. Huh!

What’s this for?

Just for being you.

Are you OK?

You don’t seem yourself.

No, you’re wrong
I’m more myself than ever.

Xena,
aren’t you gonna go back inside?

Do you think the Fates
have our lives planned out?

If they do,
I wish they’d tell us.

Me too.
