Gabrielle: Warrior Princess
Chapter 2

Gabrielle couldn't get back to sleep, and stayed up all night looking into the fire. She got ready early, putting on her brand new outfit. She now sported an outfit exactly like her last, the outfit with all of the red, the satiny red skirt. But, this outfit, instead of red, was black. She had sliver armor, her boots carried her sais, she carried a breast dagger, a sword, a whip, and the chakram.
Gabrielle loaded up her brand new horse who was black as night, and ironically named Midnight. Argo II was grazing, and Gabrielle knew that she was very sad. She was about to take Argo II out to pasture. The horse was young, she could still bear colts, and Gabrielle wanted Argo II to be free. Xena wouldn't want her horse to be sad.
"Well, Argo, this is it girl." Gabrielle spoke, patting down the horse and removing the reins and saddle. The horse whinnied. "I know you miss Xena. So do I, but you're free, and you'll run wild. Never let anyone else ride you. Xena wouldn't want you to belong to anyone else but me." She patted the horse's back, and Argo II trotted off as Gabrielle watched on.

Gabrielle felt guilt, sadness, worry, and fear pass over her. She didn't know what to do now. She sat down in the open field and closed her eyes. She felt the wind rush past her furiously. She clasped her hands together.
"Xena." She said. "Xena, I need to talk to you." As she said that, her friend's spirit appeared.
"I'm here Gabrielle." Xena said. Gabrielle opened her eyes and found the warrior princess smiling at her. She was no longer clad in her leather and armor. She had a white dress on and she was sporting a brand new pair of wings.
"Xena, I miss you." Gabrielle declared.
"I miss you too." Xena said. "But, I know that you're doing a great job."
"What do you mean?" Gabrielle asked.
"You may not know it, but you will now. Gabrielle, you're the new warrior princess."
