U need to write a sequel!

Awesome story, I loved it.

Dani

what a great ending. Knowing she was going to become a Goddess I think hoped it would be part of the story. But I liked the ending anyway.

and so just shut you trap and deal w/ it...maybe Gabrielle should be told that more often. ha I thought best friends were suppose to be supportive not judgmental? ugg Eve no. It's about time they had a heart to heart and clear the air.

crazy battle there, at least the warlord was killed finely. I would have thought the young General would have been more impressed or jealous. So what is she up to this time? It was going so well why do they take turns messing w/ each other?

their little squabbles are funny, I was hoping that no one would know about their secret lair. Now Gabrielle's going to find out.

Well maybe Ares will get his wish, even though he didn't really express it. Xena will be the one to get rid of the warlord. She should just let him go and grab the Bard and bring her back explanations later.

well that went well, at least he's got her thinking even really w/o trying. I think Gabrielle did that on purpose all I could think about was what a horrible thing she's doing. At least she apologized and they made a somewhat truce. Sooner or later you can see it coming they will end up in that secret room.

I was going to say that she is being a real tease not him but he does have his moments too. That was a sweet moment between them. Gabrielle is just going to have to deal w/ it. At least the kids seem to like him. The only thing better would have been is that Gabrielle deciding to take a walk down to the river and witness it haha sweet

whoa a topless Ares sure threw her for a loop to bad that had to end badly. I guess letting Gabrielle dictate the rules or whatever there she can't see that he seems like he is really trying. Hope I'm not wrong there anyways. I wish Gabrielle would go away.

why does he have to such a turkey just trying to start an argument when he knows good and well she's going to do what she wants anyways? a hidden room hopefully nosy Gabrielle will never know about. and another thing what would be wrong w/ Xena leading Ares army for the greater good! I always thought that would make a good story too. anyways fun chapter

dang she went anyways. This should be interesting though Ares has to be waiting for her return since he did catch her there before.

ha now were getting somewhere. Finally Ares now they just need to get together. I kinda hope when Xena tells Gabrielle that she wants to settle down and raise Toris' grand kids that her wanderlust kicks in and she wants to continue on her own. Maybe she can go join the amazons.

now see that's one of the reason Gabrielle gets on my nerves so much and can't understand why she thinks it's her business in the first place. I don't think I would have been so forgiving about being called names by her. So that was a surprise to learn that Toris was their grandfather. Kinda cool though. but what if Toris is dead they are family and she will be responsible for them. I didn't catch the clue earlier when they first met the kids when she was focused of the blonde boy until you said it later.

aww that was a sad beginning. Looks promising though wonder if Ares and Xena will raise the kids together bc the kids grandpa is probably dead.
