Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:42,038 --> 00:00:44,530
Just weren't built to hold
a real god, were you?
2
00:00:51,991 --> 00:00:53,051
Go away.
3
00:01:28,521 --> 00:01:32,834
- Can you see your friend?
- No, but she's gotta be here.
4
00:01:33,695 --> 00:01:36,354
These are the people that her parents
told me about. I'm sure of it.
5
00:01:43,176 --> 00:01:44,979
I wish I could just
make out what he's saying.
6
00:01:47,010 --> 00:01:47,980
I can't make it all out,
7
00:01:48,005 --> 00:01:50,505
but it's something about
the return of a goddess.
8
00:01:51,263 --> 00:01:53,465
They need to build
temples to her.
9
00:01:55,068 --> 00:01:56,142
Prepare the way.
10
00:01:57,248 --> 00:01:59,903
Xena, there she is.
11
00:02:00,201 --> 00:02:01,698
That's my friend, Seraphin.
12
00:02:23,384 --> 00:02:24,752
What is she doing?
13
00:03:23,936 --> 00:03:26,621
Seraphin!
This way!
14
00:03:44,971 --> 00:03:46,966
- I'm gonna get Seraphin.
- Right.
15
00:04:31,579 --> 00:04:33,732
In a time of ancient gods...
16
00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:37,592
...warlords...
17
00:04:37,627 --> 00:04:39,124
...and kings...
18
00:04:39,192 --> 00:04:42,693
A land in turmoil
cried out for a hero...
19
00:04:51,898 --> 00:04:53,731
She was Xena...
20
00:04:54,404 --> 00:04:58,200
a mighty princess,
forged in the heat of battle...
21
00:05:02,572 --> 00:05:03,754
...The power...
22
00:05:05,596 --> 00:05:06,760
...The passion...
23
00:05:10,169 --> 00:05:11,347
...The danger...
24
00:05:16,872 --> 00:05:19,441
Her courage will
change the world...
25
00:05:20,465 --> 00:05:23,965
Sacrifice
(Part 1)
26
00:05:24,749 --> 00:05:26,175
We have to find her, Xena.
27
00:05:27,217 --> 00:05:30,092
I've known Seraphin since
she was-- she was five.
28
00:05:31,002 --> 00:05:33,357
I can't believe that she'd
be a worshipper of Callisto's.
29
00:05:33,592 --> 00:05:35,405
More than that,
she was a sacrifice.
30
00:05:35,789 --> 00:05:38,981
When we stepped in, Callisto decided
to take one of the other priests.
31
00:05:40,050 --> 00:05:43,078
Do you think it's possible that Callisto
could end up like the other gods,
32
00:05:44,038 --> 00:05:45,755
with temples and followers?
33
00:05:45,780 --> 00:05:47,902
It's not like her. There
has to be something else.
34
00:05:48,896 --> 00:05:50,202
I just don't know what.
35
00:05:50,792 --> 00:05:52,790
The first thing is
to find your friend. Come on.
36
00:06:05,174 --> 00:06:06,846
Hi, honey, I'm home.
37
00:06:09,926 --> 00:06:10,965
Well,
38
00:06:12,887 --> 00:06:14,071
there you are.
39
00:06:14,507 --> 00:06:15,879
Hello, pumpkin.
40
00:06:16,257 --> 00:06:18,765
Your Auntie Callisto's brought
you a little treat.
41
00:06:20,115 --> 00:06:21,586
It is what you wanted, isn't it?
42
00:06:21,611 --> 00:06:24,182
They called him
the-the Priest of the Flesh.
43
00:06:24,377 --> 00:06:25,216
Now...
44
00:06:26,908 --> 00:06:28,436
shall I carve or will you?
45
00:06:34,969 --> 00:06:36,718
Most of them
are headed toward the river.
46
00:06:37,502 --> 00:06:39,518
- They're going to regroup.
- Right.
47
00:06:43,015 --> 00:06:47,187
Gabrielle, I want you to
take Argo. Go on ahead.
48
00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:49,336
I'll catch up with you later.
49
00:07:00,345 --> 00:07:01,811
How long have you
been watching me?
50
00:07:02,463 --> 00:07:04,510
Since you broke up
Callisto's little party.
51
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,278
Looks like the new kid on the block
wants to create her own dynasty.
52
00:07:09,620 --> 00:07:10,870
She's got a lot
to learn though.
53
00:07:11,792 --> 00:07:12,725
I, uh--
54
00:07:12,946 --> 00:07:16,162
I don't suppose she happened
to be wearing a pendant at all?
55
00:07:16,187 --> 00:07:18,656
You mean the Hind's Blood?
No.
56
00:07:19,124 --> 00:07:20,585
I heard the story, Ares.
57
00:07:20,976 --> 00:07:23,823
Callisto kills Strife using
a dagger with Hind's Blood,
58
00:07:23,848 --> 00:07:26,717
and then Hercules forced her
through gate into that other world.
59
00:07:27,043 --> 00:07:29,541
What I want to know is,
how she got through that gate.
60
00:07:29,862 --> 00:07:30,885
She's a goddess.
61
00:07:31,323 --> 00:07:32,901
How long would it
have taken you?
62
00:07:33,396 --> 00:07:36,436
Good point. Still, it's good she
didn't have it on her, because now--
63
00:07:36,461 --> 00:07:38,297
Now she can't use it against you.
64
00:07:38,321 --> 00:07:39,864
Or against any other god.
65
00:07:40,114 --> 00:07:43,039
Callisto didn't come back for a
few temples, she wants it all.
66
00:07:43,716 --> 00:07:46,349
Now, Xena,
you're going to need an ally.
67
00:07:46,930 --> 00:07:50,157
Maybe we can...
come up with some arrangement.
68
00:07:50,182 --> 00:07:53,424
Forget it. I'm not in this
for your petty revenge.
69
00:07:53,673 --> 00:07:56,997
Callisto is not a true god.
She was mortal.
70
00:07:57,409 --> 00:07:59,830
She's got no control,
no respect for any of us.
71
00:08:00,183 --> 00:08:01,980
All she can bring is destruction.
72
00:08:02,419 --> 00:08:04,222
And when she gets
an army of worshippers,
73
00:08:04,247 --> 00:08:06,498
conquers the world, what then?
74
00:08:07,714 --> 00:08:09,479
Then she's coming after you.
75
00:08:43,677 --> 00:08:46,700
Priest of the Flesh has gone.
Glory to him.
76
00:08:46,724 --> 00:08:48,437
Glory!
77
00:08:49,431 --> 00:08:50,613
He will be replaced.
78
00:08:51,602 --> 00:08:52,786
But the blood--
79
00:08:53,594 --> 00:08:55,420
The time of the blood has come.
80
00:09:11,544 --> 00:09:14,026
And this time there will be
no interruptions.
81
00:09:25,984 --> 00:09:29,931
Glory to the blood!
The rebirth of the goddess.
82
00:10:16,825 --> 00:10:18,774
Not happy to see me, are you?
83
00:10:21,620 --> 00:10:23,148
Neither am I, really.
84
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,741
But I've got a plan to
solve both of our problems.
85
00:10:27,052 --> 00:10:30,700
- Why don't you let me in on it.
- Oh, Xena.
86
00:10:34,643 --> 00:10:37,077
I tell you about it,
and the first thing you know,
87
00:10:37,604 --> 00:10:39,173
you'll be trying to stop me.
88
00:10:40,698 --> 00:10:42,042
You just trust me.
89
00:10:43,354 --> 00:10:44,479
You're gonna love it.
90
00:10:44,893 --> 00:10:48,183
- Well, at least half of it.
- Oh, goody.
91
00:10:51,858 --> 00:10:54,855
It's funny that I keep this thing
around. I don't really need it.
92
00:10:55,292 --> 00:10:56,753
It's just for decoration...
93
00:10:57,338 --> 00:10:58,508
and for fun.
94
00:11:01,382 --> 00:11:04,959
I don't know if I'm toying with
you or you're toying with me.
95
00:11:06,990 --> 00:11:09,472
Oh, you can't beat me, Xena.
96
00:11:10,228 --> 00:11:11,335
You can only--
97
00:11:13,896 --> 00:11:15,395
You can only delay me.
98
00:11:18,128 --> 00:11:20,448
Sorry, Xena,
but I'm on a schedule.
99
00:11:21,761 --> 00:11:22,759
Oh, yeah.
100
00:11:27,213 --> 00:11:30,600
Oh, I've been looking forward to
this reunion for a long, long time.
101
00:11:30,969 --> 00:11:32,586
Oh, you're going back
through the gate.
102
00:11:32,914 --> 00:11:34,942
But not before we
settle a few things.
103
00:11:46,204 --> 00:11:48,555
Love to chat, but, gotta go.
104
00:11:50,250 --> 00:11:54,732
I am really going to enjoy
tearing her limb from limb.
105
00:11:59,831 --> 00:12:02,911
Seraphin,
what is wrong with you?
106
00:12:03,144 --> 00:12:05,747
- We're trying to save your life.
- Gabrielle,
107
00:12:06,050 --> 00:12:08,783
you don't understand,
I don't wanna go.
108
00:12:09,136 --> 00:12:12,037
No, I know. You wanna be sacrificed
to the temple of Callisto.
109
00:12:12,284 --> 00:12:13,625
Well, it's not going to happen.
110
00:12:14,333 --> 00:12:16,372
- Who's Callisto?
- Who's--
111
00:12:22,309 --> 00:12:24,430
You mean you aren't
being sacrificed to Callisto?
112
00:12:24,455 --> 00:12:27,127
I'm chosen.
The Priestess of the Blood.
113
00:12:27,627 --> 00:12:29,303
The rebirth of the goddess.
114
00:12:30,275 --> 00:12:31,906
This isn't about Callisto.
115
00:12:34,354 --> 00:12:35,836
It's about something else.
116
00:12:37,954 --> 00:12:39,798
The goddess of Dahak.
117
00:12:41,874 --> 00:12:43,249
It's about Hope.
118
00:12:54,705 --> 00:12:56,433
Hope is gathering her following.
119
00:12:56,932 --> 00:12:58,019
It can't be.
120
00:12:58,433 --> 00:13:01,371
Yes. She's building a power
base of people to worship her.
121
00:13:01,396 --> 00:13:03,443
And why shouldn't we
worship her?
122
00:13:03,836 --> 00:13:05,506
I mean, we're not fools.
123
00:13:05,531 --> 00:13:07,415
We look at how
the world is today...
124
00:13:07,768 --> 00:13:09,261
and where is the happiness?
125
00:13:09,784 --> 00:13:11,263
Where is the peace?
126
00:13:12,991 --> 00:13:15,897
Seraphin, you have no idea
what you're talking about.
127
00:13:16,123 --> 00:13:18,201
Hope is bringing
Dahak's destruction.
128
00:13:18,533 --> 00:13:20,936
The Goddess Hope
is the savior of this world.
129
00:13:21,283 --> 00:13:22,955
I must get back to Werfner.
130
00:13:22,979 --> 00:13:26,151
The High Priest needs me.
Needs me for the goddess.
131
00:13:27,793 --> 00:13:30,166
Your goddess killed my child.
132
00:13:31,698 --> 00:13:34,663
It's okay.
Come on. I'll explain to you.
133
00:13:38,422 --> 00:13:40,345
Hope is building
an army of the ignorant.
134
00:13:41,641 --> 00:13:42,607
Incredible.
135
00:13:42,935 --> 00:13:46,386
A mortal so stupid as to believe
Dahak will actually bring them peace.
136
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,546
They all deserve what they get.
137
00:13:48,571 --> 00:13:50,688
I really don't know why you
continue to protect them.
138
00:13:50,712 --> 00:13:51,640
Shut up, Ares.
139
00:13:52,287 --> 00:13:54,662
- Hope must die.
- Oh, my thoughts exactly.
140
00:13:55,095 --> 00:13:58,105
But my way.
I got a lot of options here.
141
00:13:58,508 --> 00:14:00,989
I can raise a combined
army of all my warriors.
142
00:14:01,372 --> 00:14:04,567
Hope wants to fight?
I'll be there. But on my terms.
143
00:14:05,216 --> 00:14:09,352
Not to press a point, but, I can
really use an overall commander.
144
00:14:09,352 --> 00:14:11,540
Your army means
nothing to me.
145
00:14:13,328 --> 00:14:15,790
Taking this all
a little personally, aren't we?
146
00:14:18,612 --> 00:14:22,463
Okay. When you realize
you're wrong, call me...
147
00:14:24,264 --> 00:14:25,511
if you survive.
148
00:14:30,912 --> 00:14:31,958
Are you okay?
149
00:14:33,670 --> 00:14:34,855
Ares is right.
150
00:14:35,779 --> 00:14:38,216
- About leading his army?
- Xena, are you sure that's best?
151
00:14:38,241 --> 00:14:39,858
I'm taking it all too personally.
152
00:14:40,413 --> 00:14:41,519
I can't afford that.
153
00:14:42,295 --> 00:14:44,959
- It's okay to be angry.
- No, it's not.
154
00:14:45,686 --> 00:14:47,933
Anger clouds the mind.
It prevents focus.
155
00:14:50,607 --> 00:14:51,936
Hope still has a mortal form.
156
00:14:51,961 --> 00:14:53,648
Maybe we can use that
to our advantage.
157
00:14:53,673 --> 00:14:55,514
That's if we can
get past her powers.
158
00:14:55,539 --> 00:14:57,250
She still hasn't
made an appearance.
159
00:14:57,766 --> 00:14:59,763
It's possible that
she's not able to.
160
00:15:00,591 --> 00:15:03,903
The rebirth that Seraphin
mentioned. Talk to her.
161
00:15:04,427 --> 00:15:05,392
Find out what it means.
162
00:15:05,589 --> 00:15:07,082
Do you think that
Hope is vulnerable?
163
00:15:07,326 --> 00:15:10,291
That's exactly what I think.
And if I'm right...
164
00:15:11,919 --> 00:15:13,448
we got a chance to kill her.
165
00:15:17,233 --> 00:15:18,389
Wait.
166
00:15:20,124 --> 00:15:21,507
This is the place of rebirth.
167
00:15:22,053 --> 00:15:25,225
The cave of the Sister Peaks.
This is where the goddess is.
168
00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:27,078
- Very good.
- Please, please.
169
00:15:27,805 --> 00:15:29,991
We are only a servant
to the greatness of the godd--
170
00:15:30,016 --> 00:15:32,081
Yes, I know who you
serve you little worm.
171
00:15:32,106 --> 00:15:33,502
She and I are old friends.
172
00:15:33,527 --> 00:15:34,864
I've given her
the Priest of the Flesh,
173
00:15:34,889 --> 00:15:36,623
now she's waiting for
the Priest of the Blood.
174
00:15:36,939 --> 00:15:39,637
And just guess
who gets that honor.
175
00:15:40,875 --> 00:15:42,349
No, it can't be us.
176
00:15:43,282 --> 00:15:44,311
'Fraid so.
177
00:15:45,403 --> 00:15:47,215
We are not the chosen one.
178
00:15:48,277 --> 00:15:49,564
The priestess servant.
179
00:15:49,887 --> 00:15:51,724
She's the chosen one.
It's her blood.
180
00:15:51,998 --> 00:15:53,729
What exactly do you mean?
181
00:15:53,919 --> 00:15:55,450
If our blood could
release the goddess,
182
00:15:55,475 --> 00:15:57,552
we would drive the sword
into our own chest,
183
00:15:57,577 --> 00:15:58,640
but it won't.
184
00:16:03,772 --> 00:16:05,585
You're gonna help her,
aren't you?
185
00:16:06,428 --> 00:16:07,519
To release her.
186
00:16:09,932 --> 00:16:11,369
We can talk to her for you.
187
00:16:12,127 --> 00:16:13,250
Really?
188
00:16:18,457 --> 00:16:21,124
No, you aren't listening.
I said everybody.
189
00:16:21,808 --> 00:16:25,832
I want every warlord, every soldier
who ever professed an allegiance to me.
190
00:16:26,112 --> 00:16:27,175
All of them.
191
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,238
This is going to be
the largest army ever assembled.
192
00:16:30,263 --> 00:16:32,052
But this is Dahak
and his daughter.
193
00:16:32,217 --> 00:16:34,247
And I am Ares,
God of War!
194
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,688
I will not end up some footnote
in the annals of history.
195
00:16:39,024 --> 00:16:40,735
Dahak wants a battle
for dominion.
196
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,911
All right, I'll give him
one he'll never forget.
197
00:16:44,712 --> 00:16:48,705
But we strike now.
So do as I tell you and go.
198
00:17:06,459 --> 00:17:08,471
Do you remember the river
near your house?
199
00:17:09,576 --> 00:17:10,664
I remember.
200
00:17:12,032 --> 00:17:14,790
Your parents used to get so
upset at us for swimming there.
201
00:17:15,953 --> 00:17:19,875
We would nod our heads and say,
"We'll never do it again."
202
00:17:19,900 --> 00:17:21,476
But we'd go and we'd do it.
203
00:17:21,931 --> 00:17:23,740
Didn't want anyone
telling us what to do.
204
00:17:28,060 --> 00:17:29,929
I'm not going home, Gabrielle.
205
00:17:31,365 --> 00:17:32,617
I found my place.
206
00:17:33,014 --> 00:17:34,290
This isn't your place.
207
00:17:34,858 --> 00:17:36,389
These aren't your friends, Seraphin.
208
00:17:36,652 --> 00:17:39,163
What happened to the girl that
I knew who had a mind of her own?
209
00:17:39,403 --> 00:17:42,161
I just can't believe that you'd blindly
follow Dahak and his followers.
210
00:17:42,186 --> 00:17:43,957
I'm not as blind as you think.
211
00:17:44,774 --> 00:17:48,625
Yes, I know Dahak has a plan,
and yes, I know people must die,
212
00:17:49,075 --> 00:17:50,774
but it's for the greater good.
213
00:17:51,189 --> 00:17:52,672
Don't tell me about
the greater good
214
00:17:52,697 --> 00:17:54,423
because you have no
idea what it means.
215
00:17:54,448 --> 00:17:56,946
And you have no idea
of the greatness of Dahak.
216
00:17:57,501 --> 00:17:59,204
When the goddess is reborn,
217
00:17:59,229 --> 00:18:01,291
she will return from
the Sister Peaks.
218
00:18:01,799 --> 00:18:04,814
The bringer of the Destroyer
will wash the land of its sins.
219
00:18:05,716 --> 00:18:07,825
On the rebirth,
it will come to pass.
220
00:18:08,411 --> 00:18:10,731
Werfner the High Priest
has promised us this.
221
00:18:11,186 --> 00:18:12,261
This rebirth,
222
00:18:12,968 --> 00:18:13,967
what is that?
223
00:18:13,991 --> 00:18:15,890
Can you explain it to me because
I don't know what it means.
224
00:18:15,891 --> 00:18:17,908
It's a time when she
becomes her destiny and
225
00:18:17,933 --> 00:18:20,313
she emerges stronger
and more powerful.
226
00:18:21,277 --> 00:18:23,489
Let the Goddess Hope
touch your soul.
227
00:18:24,152 --> 00:18:25,604
She already has.
228
00:18:26,871 --> 00:18:28,290
Hope is my daughter.
229
00:19:03,826 --> 00:19:05,474
Very good.
230
00:19:06,815 --> 00:19:09,580
You molded her cocoon
from Janiclea's flesh...
231
00:19:10,425 --> 00:19:11,563
as it is written.
232
00:19:12,401 --> 00:19:14,901
With the Priest of the Flesh,
it wasn't that hard to figure out.
233
00:19:16,077 --> 00:19:17,382
Now talk to her.
234
00:19:18,218 --> 00:19:20,717
What-- What do you
want us to ask her?
235
00:19:21,570 --> 00:19:23,985
Ask her if she understands
what I'm doing...
236
00:19:24,394 --> 00:19:26,731
and exactly why
I'm protecting her.
237
00:19:42,805 --> 00:19:44,243
You wanna die?
238
00:19:47,336 --> 00:19:50,287
More than that.
I want oblivion.
239
00:19:50,412 --> 00:19:52,747
I want my life to end.
I want it all to stop.
240
00:19:52,772 --> 00:19:56,362
No nothing. No memories,
no Tartarus, nothing.
241
00:19:57,146 --> 00:19:59,818
And I know--
I know she can do it.
242
00:20:01,728 --> 00:20:03,100
Now, does she agree?
243
00:20:07,257 --> 00:20:10,389
Goddess understands
and she agrees.
244
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,882
Should have been my child.
You know that?
245
00:20:27,722 --> 00:20:28,954
That's okay.
246
00:20:32,199 --> 00:20:34,352
You have such power,
it's almost scary.
247
00:20:36,677 --> 00:20:38,156
Daughter of Dahak,
248
00:20:39,393 --> 00:20:41,608
the power of her
father behind her.
249
00:20:42,729 --> 00:20:43,620
Yes...
250
00:20:45,519 --> 00:20:48,426
it's quite... scary.
251
00:20:55,510 --> 00:20:56,541
Hey.
252
00:20:57,479 --> 00:20:59,489
Every village has got
the same story.
253
00:20:59,514 --> 00:21:01,793
People leaving home
to join Dahak's followers.
254
00:21:02,186 --> 00:21:04,182
Disciples they're
calling themselves now.
255
00:21:04,647 --> 00:21:06,139
Are they under
a spell or something?
256
00:21:06,164 --> 00:21:07,969
No. They're simple people.
257
00:21:07,994 --> 00:21:09,791
They're poor and
they're disillusioned.
258
00:21:09,816 --> 00:21:11,469
That's all she needs
to draw them in.
259
00:21:13,030 --> 00:21:14,241
What's wrong with her?
260
00:21:16,483 --> 00:21:17,663
I told her about Hope.
261
00:21:18,717 --> 00:21:20,100
About me and Hope.
262
00:21:20,877 --> 00:21:21,685
And?
263
00:21:22,580 --> 00:21:23,504
I don't know.
264
00:21:24,335 --> 00:21:26,694
When she looks at me, it's like
there's somebody else in there.
265
00:21:27,915 --> 00:21:29,265
How could this happen?
266
00:21:30,194 --> 00:21:32,342
I mean, if I were to bet
what she'd be doing right now
267
00:21:32,489 --> 00:21:34,255
That's the funny
thing about people.
268
00:21:34,794 --> 00:21:36,364
Just when you think you've
got them figured out,
269
00:21:36,389 --> 00:21:38,725
they show a completely different
side to their character.
270
00:21:42,389 --> 00:21:43,530
I know what you mean.
271
00:21:44,701 --> 00:21:45,977
You think we'll
ever get her back,
272
00:21:46,662 --> 00:21:48,006
the Seraphin I know?
273
00:21:49,114 --> 00:21:51,339
We're gonna do everything
we possibly can.
274
00:21:52,043 --> 00:21:54,073
But, first, I gotta
deal with Callisto.
275
00:21:54,098 --> 00:21:57,348
- And what about Hope?
- I don't wanna split my efforts.
276
00:21:57,373 --> 00:21:58,873
Callisto is protecting Hope.
277
00:21:58,897 --> 00:22:01,272
So whatever happens, I gotta
take her out of the picture.
278
00:22:01,737 --> 00:22:05,120
The villagers mentioned a drifter who'd
been stealing food from the markets.
279
00:22:05,120 --> 00:22:08,197
By the description, it sounds like
the priest we saw with Seraphin.
280
00:22:08,222 --> 00:22:10,326
He's gotta be in the same
general area as Hope.
281
00:22:10,972 --> 00:22:12,238
The Sister Peaks.
282
00:22:12,263 --> 00:22:13,161
Right.
283
00:22:14,528 --> 00:22:18,014
Look, Gabrielle, do not
turn your back on her.
284
00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:19,971
She is not your
friend any longer.
285
00:22:20,867 --> 00:22:22,227
She belongs to Hope.
286
00:22:23,102 --> 00:22:24,258
Be back as soon as I can.
287
00:22:26,452 --> 00:22:27,279
Okay.
288
00:22:54,822 --> 00:22:56,736
You should of told us
you didn't eat.
289
00:22:56,761 --> 00:22:58,383
We wouldn't have
brought back so much.
290
00:22:59,734 --> 00:23:01,734
If we were immortal, we would
still like to eat all ki--
291
00:23:01,758 --> 00:23:02,703
Quiet!
292
00:23:08,389 --> 00:23:09,635
We've got a visitor.
293
00:23:11,877 --> 00:23:13,829
Oh, she's so good.
294
00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:19,197
I'll be right back.
295
00:23:23,075 --> 00:23:24,051
A visitor?
296
00:23:25,481 --> 00:23:26,975
We don't like visitor.
297
00:23:33,053 --> 00:23:36,206
Oh, Xena, come on.
I know you're here.
298
00:23:37,579 --> 00:23:40,791
Still trying to stop me even
though I'm doing you a favor.
299
00:23:46,204 --> 00:23:48,672
You can do me a favor
by handing over Hope.
300
00:23:49,652 --> 00:23:51,255
Oh, you figured it out, did you?
301
00:23:51,842 --> 00:23:53,037
Well, no can do.
302
00:23:53,654 --> 00:23:55,806
She's not quite up
to snuff at the moment.
303
00:23:56,201 --> 00:23:58,147
She's cocooned, helpless.
304
00:23:58,624 --> 00:24:02,497
She needs her Auntie Callisto.
You would just run her through.
305
00:24:02,522 --> 00:24:03,913
That's the idea.
306
00:24:03,937 --> 00:24:05,342
Yeah, well, I can't
let it happen.
307
00:24:05,367 --> 00:24:08,094
See, I have plans for her.
Big plans.
308
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,455
Well, forget about them,
309
00:24:11,377 --> 00:24:13,143
and hand over that monster.
310
00:24:15,894 --> 00:24:17,724
What is this, some kind of martyrdom
phase you're going through?
311
00:24:17,749 --> 00:24:19,306
I could kill you in an instant.
312
00:24:30,291 --> 00:24:31,369
Nice try.
313
00:24:31,856 --> 00:24:34,293
But that threat worked
when I was only a mortal.
314
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,876
But, I'm a god now, Xena.
315
00:24:42,134 --> 00:24:44,853
Welcome to my world.
Now get ready to leave it.
316
00:24:44,878 --> 00:24:46,401
Give me your best shot.
317
00:24:47,355 --> 00:24:48,793
Oh, clever, clever girl.
318
00:24:49,089 --> 00:24:50,846
You want me to use my
powers in here so all
319
00:24:50,871 --> 00:24:52,946
these stupid rocks
come tumbling on me.
320
00:24:52,971 --> 00:24:54,557
You're a god.
It won't kill you.
321
00:24:54,582 --> 00:24:56,067
No, it won't kill me.
322
00:24:56,092 --> 00:24:57,708
But it will keep me
locked up long enough
323
00:24:57,733 --> 00:24:59,670
for you to get to my
precious little baby.
324
00:25:00,164 --> 00:25:02,133
Oh, well, back to basics.
325
00:25:05,866 --> 00:25:08,375
Ouch. Don't do that.
326
00:25:10,261 --> 00:25:12,322
The best you can hope
for is a standoff.
327
00:25:13,020 --> 00:25:16,000
And who do you really think is
going to tire out first, huh?
328
00:25:29,679 --> 00:25:31,360
I gotta give you
credit for trying.
329
00:25:41,509 --> 00:25:42,933
You should've kept running.
330
00:25:43,456 --> 00:25:46,464
I couldn't use my powers in there.
But out here, well,
331
00:25:47,071 --> 00:25:49,412
can you say, "Nighty-night?"
332
00:25:58,467 --> 00:25:59,727
No!
333
00:26:17,394 --> 00:26:18,832
Nighty-night.
334
00:26:47,266 --> 00:26:49,870
Stay back, Ares.
I'm the one who gets to kill her.
335
00:26:49,895 --> 00:26:53,442
Then I guess we got a problem,
'cause I just can't let that happen.
336
00:27:05,893 --> 00:27:08,198
We had heard about the mother
of the Goddess Hope.
337
00:27:09,001 --> 00:27:10,760
She's known as the Betrayer,
338
00:27:10,784 --> 00:27:13,307
the one who selfishly
killed her own daughter.
339
00:27:13,581 --> 00:27:15,917
- That's not how it was.
- We were never told her name...
340
00:27:15,942 --> 00:27:18,856
because it was said to speak
it was obscene blasphemy.
341
00:27:19,465 --> 00:27:21,179
I didn't know it was you.
342
00:27:23,350 --> 00:27:26,585
- But I guess it makes sense.
- How does it make sense?
343
00:27:26,610 --> 00:27:30,156
She's your daughter.
She's a balance of Dahak's power.
344
00:27:30,392 --> 00:27:32,931
The Goddess Hope is
a balance of good and evil.
345
00:27:33,429 --> 00:27:36,068
But born as a mortal,
she's one of us.
346
00:27:36,343 --> 00:27:39,366
She's evil. That's what she is.
She's like her father.
347
00:27:39,391 --> 00:27:41,652
She has a harsh father, yes,
348
00:27:42,022 --> 00:27:45,725
that's why Hope was born
of a good person-- of you.
349
00:27:46,133 --> 00:27:49,331
She can stand as a champion
for mortals, a leader for us all.
350
00:27:49,331 --> 00:27:53,108
She is a murderer. She doesn't care
about any of us. Even as a child--
351
00:27:53,133 --> 00:27:55,147
Can you blame a child for not
352
00:27:55,172 --> 00:27:57,289
understanding a power
that was given it?
353
00:27:57,664 --> 00:27:59,596
A child without guidance.
354
00:28:01,164 --> 00:28:02,641
Without her mother.
355
00:28:05,622 --> 00:28:07,005
After the rebirth,
356
00:28:07,030 --> 00:28:09,903
the Goddess Hope will have
the wisdom to know what's best.
357
00:28:10,577 --> 00:28:12,265
She's your daughter, Gabrielle.
358
00:28:12,858 --> 00:28:14,745
How could your daughter
be evil?
359
00:28:18,821 --> 00:28:21,503
- Ares has got Hope.
- You saw her?
360
00:28:23,088 --> 00:28:24,354
Yes, I saw her,
361
00:28:24,759 --> 00:28:26,903
or something very like her.
She's in a cocoon.
362
00:28:26,928 --> 00:28:28,090
What is Ares up to?
363
00:28:28,115 --> 00:28:30,985
I know he's not taking her to Mount
Olympus because of other gods.
364
00:28:31,439 --> 00:28:33,282
There's only one place
that she'd be safe.
365
00:28:33,307 --> 00:28:34,466
What place?
366
00:28:35,325 --> 00:28:36,328
The Halls of War.
367
00:28:36,353 --> 00:28:38,097
We'll need every
bit of time we got.
368
00:28:38,512 --> 00:28:41,693
We'll travel overnight by foot.
I think we can be there by morning.
369
00:28:42,319 --> 00:28:43,283
And then what?
370
00:28:44,741 --> 00:28:45,833
First things first.
371
00:28:46,556 --> 00:28:47,744
Let's just get there.
372
00:28:56,638 --> 00:28:57,948
Can you hear me?
373
00:28:59,326 --> 00:29:00,387
Can you?
374
00:29:02,210 --> 00:29:05,579
You and Callisto killed Strife.
You tried to kill me.
375
00:29:06,411 --> 00:29:09,646
As you've probably figured out,
I forgive you.
376
00:29:11,036 --> 00:29:12,627
Xena's not finished,
you know.
377
00:29:13,019 --> 00:29:16,189
When she puts her mind to killing
someone, they generally get killed.
378
00:29:16,214 --> 00:29:18,675
I know.
I gave her that focus.
379
00:29:20,021 --> 00:29:23,408
I suggest you do something
to discourage her.
380
00:29:34,381 --> 00:29:35,472
What is that?
381
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:37,785
The goddess.
382
00:29:38,926 --> 00:29:40,201
She's speaking to us.
383
00:29:43,905 --> 00:29:46,382
You have to leave, Gabrielle.
They're coming.
384
00:29:47,236 --> 00:29:48,784
- Who's coming?
- Gabrielle.
385
00:29:49,291 --> 00:29:52,363
- Priestess of the Blood.
- By the gods.
386
00:29:52,388 --> 00:29:55,146
Priestess of the Blood.
387
00:29:56,019 --> 00:29:58,456
Priestess of the Blood.
388
00:29:58,481 --> 00:30:00,702
They're innocent people.
Hope knows I won't kill them.
389
00:30:00,727 --> 00:30:02,337
Priestess of the Blood.
390
00:30:03,499 --> 00:30:05,679
There was a hut on the other
side of the ridge. Run to it.
391
00:30:05,710 --> 00:30:06,844
I'll meet you there.
392
00:30:07,463 --> 00:30:10,881
- Okay, fellas, break it up.
- Stop her.
393
00:30:15,192 --> 00:30:16,161
Come on.
394
00:30:27,286 --> 00:30:28,068
Hurry!
395
00:30:29,206 --> 00:30:32,022
You don't understand, Gabrielle,
they're trying to save me.
396
00:30:32,047 --> 00:30:34,108
They're trying to save you
for a sacrifice.
397
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,029
They won't hurt us.
They wouldn't!
398
00:30:45,054 --> 00:30:46,938
Right, they won't hurt
"the Betrayer."
399
00:30:46,963 --> 00:30:48,203
But I would tell them...
400
00:30:48,517 --> 00:30:51,978
that-that you realize
that you were wrong.
401
00:30:55,868 --> 00:30:57,615
I can see it in your eyes.
402
00:31:01,702 --> 00:31:02,731
They're coming.
403
00:31:16,307 --> 00:31:18,706
- Xena.
- Gabrielle, up through the roof.
404
00:31:18,706 --> 00:31:20,917
Climb down the tree and head
to the river through the forest.
405
00:31:23,653 --> 00:31:25,301
- Come on. Your turn.
- No. Leave me here.
406
00:31:25,326 --> 00:31:27,092
- Come on!
- No, Xena.
407
00:31:44,942 --> 00:31:48,858
This is the area. The Halls of War
are around here someplace.
408
00:31:49,792 --> 00:31:52,303
The entrance is
along these cliffs.
409
00:31:55,099 --> 00:31:56,128
Xena,
410
00:31:57,192 --> 00:31:58,865
about this rebirth of Hope.
411
00:31:59,384 --> 00:32:00,804
What if it changes her?
412
00:32:01,345 --> 00:32:02,826
It won't change her,
413
00:32:03,104 --> 00:32:05,455
except to make her more
powerful and more evil.
414
00:32:05,455 --> 00:32:06,957
I just can't help thinking that--
415
00:32:07,255 --> 00:32:09,003
she was a child when
she did all those things.
416
00:32:09,028 --> 00:32:11,083
My son was only a child
when she killed him.
417
00:32:11,108 --> 00:32:13,221
Don't you dare
defend Hope to me.
418
00:32:17,550 --> 00:32:19,429
I'm gonna head south and see
if I can find anything.
419
00:32:19,454 --> 00:32:21,550
You stay here and don't let
her out of your sight.
420
00:32:28,448 --> 00:32:30,170
You can sense her, can't you?
421
00:32:31,849 --> 00:32:35,155
She's your daughter, Gabrielle.
She loves you.
422
00:32:36,155 --> 00:32:37,132
Don't you know that?
423
00:32:37,882 --> 00:32:39,307
She needs you.
424
00:32:39,671 --> 00:32:42,522
Don't you think I know that?
I have thought of it every minute.
425
00:32:42,547 --> 00:32:44,091
But I can't play "what if."
426
00:32:44,116 --> 00:32:47,114
But it doesn't have to
be like that. She knows.
427
00:32:49,046 --> 00:32:51,247
The Goddess Hope knows.
I can feel it.
428
00:32:53,623 --> 00:32:55,428
And if Xena kills her, I--
429
00:33:00,495 --> 00:33:01,428
Go to her.
430
00:33:02,608 --> 00:33:03,546
Find her.
431
00:33:04,678 --> 00:33:05,509
Warn her.
432
00:33:05,534 --> 00:33:08,619
I will. And I'll tell her that
her mother loves her.
433
00:33:08,947 --> 00:33:11,612
Oh, you are the savior
of the world, Gabrielle.
434
00:33:16,775 --> 00:33:17,835
That was good.
435
00:33:19,310 --> 00:33:20,971
With the connection Hope
has with her followers,
436
00:33:20,996 --> 00:33:23,015
Seraphin should lead
me right to her.
437
00:33:25,349 --> 00:33:26,925
You almost convinced me.
438
00:33:28,530 --> 00:33:29,904
I'm not blind anymore.
439
00:33:31,322 --> 00:33:33,989
You realize that we've given
Hope exactly what she wants...
440
00:33:34,938 --> 00:33:35,889
Seraphin.
441
00:33:36,586 --> 00:33:39,027
It was the only way we
could get to her in time.
442
00:33:39,879 --> 00:33:42,845
If we waited, Hope would just choose
another Priestess of the Blood.
443
00:33:47,312 --> 00:33:49,968
We thought this place safe.
You told us it was.
444
00:33:50,293 --> 00:33:53,350
No. Safe was not
the word I used.
445
00:33:53,653 --> 00:33:56,847
When Xena starts to move,
nothing is safe.
446
00:33:57,809 --> 00:33:59,216
Once Hope is released,
447
00:33:59,475 --> 00:34:01,253
we won't have to
worry about that.
448
00:34:03,060 --> 00:34:05,537
Weren't you supposed to
bring Seraphin here first?
449
00:34:06,260 --> 00:34:10,737
We-- We failed.
But we're looking.
450
00:34:13,731 --> 00:34:15,520
I do have one card to play.
451
00:34:16,598 --> 00:34:18,770
Something even Xena
won't see coming.
452
00:34:31,049 --> 00:34:32,142
Be careful.
453
00:34:33,267 --> 00:34:34,237
Yeah.
454
00:34:44,053 --> 00:34:46,036
You and I have got
something to talk about.
455
00:34:52,065 --> 00:34:54,108
Where are we?
What is this place?
456
00:34:55,642 --> 00:34:56,585
Who are they?
457
00:34:57,148 --> 00:34:58,970
We-- Are-- The Fates.
458
00:34:59,436 --> 00:35:00,717
Yes, the Fates.
459
00:35:01,116 --> 00:35:04,132
They spin the thread of life
for all you mortals.
460
00:35:04,823 --> 00:35:05,996
What am I doing here?
461
00:35:06,247 --> 00:35:08,020
Oh, I don't know.
Old time's sake?
462
00:35:08,410 --> 00:35:10,297
To call in a debt,
remember?
463
00:35:11,044 --> 00:35:13,507
You still owe me for getting
you to Chin ahead of Xena.
464
00:35:13,932 --> 00:35:15,496
Now I'm calling
that favor in.
465
00:35:16,187 --> 00:35:19,262
If Xena kills Hope,
this thread is cut.
466
00:35:21,049 --> 00:35:24,203
If I have to die to keep Dahak's
evil from the world, then I will.
467
00:35:28,397 --> 00:35:31,609
Th-That's Xena.
This is Xena's life thread.
468
00:35:31,634 --> 00:35:34,118
That's right.
And if she kills Hope
469
00:35:37,255 --> 00:35:39,546
The Fates agree,
I have the right to ask this.
470
00:35:39,571 --> 00:35:41,645
- The debt is binding.
- The burden is--
471
00:35:41,670 --> 00:35:43,748
- on Gabrielle.
- If Xena kills Hope--
472
00:35:43,773 --> 00:35:46,096
Xena will die.
473
00:36:34,294 --> 00:36:35,427
My Goddess,
474
00:36:36,653 --> 00:36:37,775
I'm here.
475
00:36:39,496 --> 00:36:41,668
I bring you my life's blood.
476
00:36:47,264 --> 00:36:49,414
I bring you freedom.
477
00:37:27,590 --> 00:37:29,773
The offering of
the Priestess of the Blood.
478
00:37:30,671 --> 00:37:32,275
The rebirth of the goddess.
479
00:37:35,124 --> 00:37:36,340
With this offering,
480
00:37:38,303 --> 00:37:40,186
the goddess awakens.
481
00:37:41,079 --> 00:37:42,563
Daughter of Dahak...
482
00:37:43,583 --> 00:37:46,342
bringer of the Destroyer.
483
00:38:00,355 --> 00:38:01,212
Kill her!
484
00:38:46,294 --> 00:38:47,481
No, Xena.
485
00:39:32,931 --> 00:39:34,350
What do you think you're--
36332
