Gabrielle: Warrior Princess
Chapter 8
That night, Gabrielle had realized that she had to do as much good as she could in the world in order to protect this unborn child from the evils of the world.
She sat at the campfire, writing in a scroll, thinking about the day's events. She smiled as she remembered Xena's face, Xena's soul.
Out of the bushes came a man. He stumbled to Gabrielle. His blood spilling from his mouth.
"Help me." he gasped. Gabrielle put her scroll and quill away quickly and helped the dying man.
"What happened?" she asked. She knelt down and put the man's head in her hands. He looked at her with tears in his eyes.
"We need the warrior princess." He said.
"You've found her." Gabrielle said.
"You're Xena?" he asked.
"No. I'm Gabrielle. Tell me what's wrong." Gabrielle said.
"A great warrioress . . .killed many . . .help us . . ." the man choked out. "Amphipolis."
"Who is this warrioress?" Gabrielle asked.
"Her name is Lysia." The man said. Gabrielle was confuesed.
"Who is Lysia?" Gabrielle asked.
"Xena's sister." The man said with his last breaths.
In Amphipolis, Lysia burnt another house to the ground, hearing the screaming family inside as they slowly burnt to death. She let out a shrill laugh as she heard children screaming for their mothers, seeing them burn.
"Hear this!" Lysia exclaimed, making her warriors throw the weak to the ground at her mercy. "I will not stop until I burn down everything in this village. The village that I was born in, the village my mother gave me up in. The village I never saw until now."
"Who are you?" an old woman asked.
"My name is Lysia. Daughter of Cyrene, sister of Xena." Lysia said. With that, she killed the old woman and every person near her. She grinned with delight, feeling revenge fill her veins. She was finally paying back the little village that she wasn't wanted in.
