Gabrielle woke up as Xena was brushing her hands against Gabrielle's hair as she laid there nakedly next to Xena.
"Good morning Xena!" said Gabrielle
"Good morning to you too Gabrielle!" said Xena with a big soft smile on her face
Gabrielle slowly sat up in the bed and every memory of what just happened between her and Xena came flooding back to her. She smiled and looked at Xena.
"I kinda lost my cool last night. I have had strong feelings for you for a very long time and if you regret anything that just happened last night, I'm truly sorry!"
After saying that, Gabrielle's smile became a face with nothing but sadness.
"Gabrielle, I don't regret anything that happened last night. I was too afraid to ever make the first move because I never thought you loved me the way I loved you but when you kissed me last night, that's when I knew you loved me the same way I love you. I don't regret anything! I love you with all my heart!"
After Xena said that, Gabrielle had this big smile on her face again.
"I am so glad you said that Xena because I love you too!"
As Gabrielle smiled at her, Xena couldn't help but smile back.
"I just have one question Gabrielle. What made you kiss me? What made you have the guts to do something that even I was so afraid of doing"
"Honestly, I've been wanting to kiss you for a really long time Xena. Ever since we found out we were soul mates. You have always made me feel complete. You always made me feel at home!"
With that, Xena cupped Gabrielle's face and then ran her hand over Gabrielle's hair with a smile.
Then Gabrielle continued.
"I also had a dream the other night when you were visiting Argo at the barn. It was before you came back to our room here and in my dream, you came back from visiting Argo and just came up to me and kissed me so passionately. Then I woke up. A few minutes later, you came back from visiting Argo. Though my dream never came true. That's why I looked upset when you came back. I'm sorry I lied to you saying I was fine!"
"I figured something was wrong. Thank you for telling me Gabrielle and to be truthful, I did want to kiss you that night. I just couldn't find the courage to do so. I wish I knew how you felt then!" said Xena
"It's alright Xena. We both know now how we feel about each other and I'm so glad we do!"
After Gabrielle said that, they both smiled at each other again.
"We need to get up and get ready for our shift" said Xena
"Your right. We should get ready" replied Gabrielle
So Xena and Gabrielle got up from there bed and got ready for there shift at Granny's Diner. They had smiles on there faces the whole time they were getting ready and when they finally started there shift, everyone noticed how both there moods had changed overnight but no one asked.
Emma and Regina came walking in Granny's Diner holding hands. It was there typical Friday lunch date again. As they both sat down at there usual booth, they both noticed Xena and Gabrielle's mood change and how happy they both looked. Regina and Emma couldn't help but stare at each other with a smile on there faces.
"Do you think they both finally found out they're madly in love with each other?" asked Emma
"Maybe. By there smiles on both there faces as they look at each other, I'd say yes!"
"Let's ask!" replied Emma
"What? No! Let them tell us in there own time!"
But of course Emma never listens to Regina when it comes to something like this. She just couldn't help but ask. Regina knew she wasn't gonna listen to her.
Xena started walking over to there table to take there order. Right before Xena got too close she whispered to Emma "Don't you dare!" and Emma looked at Regina with a glare.
"So what can I get you? Is it the usual? A hamburger with fries for Regina with sweet tea and a chicken sandwich for you Emma with a chocolate milk shake?" asked Xena to Emma
"Yes please!" replied Regina
Emma looked at Regina with a glare again and Xena noticed it.
"Is something wrong Emma? You look mad or curious or something"
Emma looked up at Xena with a smile.
"No no. Nothings wrong. I just couldn't help but notice how happy you and Gabrielle look today!"
"Oh that. Is it that easy to see?"
"Yes it is very easy to see how both your moods changed to be more happier then you've ever been before!" replied Emma
Xena smiled back at Emma and looked down at the floor for a second then looked back up at Emma. Then Xena looked at Gabrielle and smiled. Gabrielle saw Xena looking at her and smiled back from across the room as Gabrielle was taking someone else's order. Then Xena looked back at Emma with a smile still on her face.
"Gabrielle and I have come to terms last night that we are more then just friends!"
"I KNEW IT" replied Emma with a big smile on her face.
Xena just kept smiling at Emma's reply.
"I'm so glad you two finally figured it out. It makes me so happy to know how happy you are together!" said Emma
"Well thank you Emma! I'll just get your orders in to Granny to make and I'll be back shorty with your food" replied Xena
With that being said, Xena left to the other side of the room to Granny to give her there order and when the food was done, Xena brought there food to Emma and Regina. Emma and Regina ate there food and then left to go back to there work day for the rest of the day. Right before they left Granny's, Regina told Xena that she and Gabrielle need to come to there house after there work shifts ended because she had an idea about how to defeat Hades. Xena nodded in agreement.
After Xena and Gabrielle finished there shifts at Granny's, they went to Regina and Emma's house. They knocked on the door and Regina let them both inside and once again, Xena and Gabrielle sat on the couch while Emma and Regina sat across from them.
"Okay so I got an idea. I know someone from Arendelle that has magic powers as well. She has powers to freeze things. She can also build things from ice with her power. Her name is Elsa. Emma and I met her about a few years ago when she got here from my sister's Zelena time travel spell. She somehow got here from that spell. We weren't all exactly sure how but that doesn't matter. What matter is, she can help us!"
"Alright fine. How do we find her?" asked Xena
"Don't worry about that, I know where to find her. I gave her a job here in Storybrooke at the ice cream place. She keeps all the ice cream cold whenever our freezer doesn't always work. She took over that job after her aunt died. Her aunt had the same power as her. She was known as the Snow Queen. She killed herself a few years ago in order to stop her curse she enacted!"
Xena and Gabrielle looked at each other with confused looks. Then back at Emma and Regina.
"If her aunt enacted a curse, why would she wanna kill herself to end her curse?" asked Gabrielle
"That's a good question. Long story short, Elsa was able to talk her into stopping the curse but the only way to do that was for her to kill herself. So she did. Elsa was hurt for a long time but she's okay now. Elsa's sister Anna helped Elsa get through the death of there aunt!" replied Regina
"Oh wow. Well that's quite a story. But alright. So how do you think she can help kill Hades?" asked Xena
"Well, I figured that since Elsa could turn things into ice, she could use her power to freeze Hades into ice. Then as he's frozen into ice, I can take out his beating heart and crush it. My magic can get through the ice to his heart."
"Alright then how can Gabrielle and I help? I told you before, we don't back down from a fight." asked Xena
"I thought about that. I figured maybe you can use that circle thingy around your waist there to maybe distract Hades into thinking your gonna try to fight him!"
"This circled round thingy is called a chakram. It's a weapon as you saw when we fought Alti!" replied Xena
"Right. Well whatever it is, it could work long enough to distract him for Elsa to freeze him. If he's not distracted, he can deflect Elsa's power!"
Gabrielle looked at Xena and then back at Emma and Regina.
"And what can I help with?" asked Gabrielle
Xena then looked at Gabrielle and said "You can throw your sais weapons. He'd catch them thinking it's just you. Then that's when I'll come up behind him and throw my chakram!"
Regina had a face like "that could work" and then it was like Emma read her mind because right when Regina gave that look on her face, Emma said "That could work!"
Regina nodded in agreement with a smile on her face.
"Alright then, let's go fill in Elsa." said Regina
That being said, Emma, Regina, Xena and Gabrielle all went to the ice cream shop that Elsa was just about to close up and filled in Elsa with everything and why they needed her help. After explaining everything, Else agreed to help.
Regina and Emma nodded with a smile at Elsa.
"Alright so tonight we all get a good nights rest. Tomorrow is Saturday. We're all off on the weekend so let's start getting started on this tomorrow!" said Emma
"Um, I'm not off work on the weekends. It's an ice cream shop. I'm always open every day!" relied Elsa
Regina looked at Elsa with a face like "oh yeah I forgot" then said "well tomorrow your closed because I think getting rid of Hades is way more important then ice cream! No offense"
Elsa looked at Regina like she just couldn't do that.
"Kids love this place Regina. I'm not closing my shop. I'll just ask my sister Anna to fill in for me. She's done it before whenever I get sick so she knows what she's doing"
"Okay fine. But tomorrow, we all meet back at the clock tower and I will summon Hades with a spell. I know one that my mother has in her spell book to summon Hades. I've never used it but I'm pretty sure it'll work! My mother's spell book never let me down before!" said Regina
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Tomorrow we kill Hades!" said Xena in a serious voice and a very serious mean look.
*notes*
I thought this was a good way to end this chapter. I will make my next chapter longer. Sorry for the short chapter.
