Chapter Four

"Felicity we think you should leave. " Cyrene said when she came down.

"Fine, I know when I've overstayed my welcome." Felicity packed her bags and picked up Charity who immediately screamed.

"No,no put me down!" Charity screamed. Xena stopped her at the door.

"No, we think you should leave without Charity, your welcome to visit her at any time, but we love her, you don't."

"You bitch how could you say such a thing to me!" Felicity yelled at her,"I am her mother!"

"No, your not, your her aunt, we know the truth now, and you won't take her away."

"I am her mother." Felicity said.

"Charity is in good hands you can be sure of her safety here."

"Why would I leave my sister's daughter with a lying murdering bitch like you, you think just because you dyed your hair from blond, and got a new outfitt that your no longer the murdering bitch that killed my sister in the first place."

"Ok firstly I have not had blond hair since I was a baby and secondly yes I have done bad things in my life and I know nothing will ever change that, you can't go back in time. If I could I would save your sister from whomever impersonated me and killed her, and than you'd all be happy and Charity's brothers would still be alive, but that's not going to happen not without the help of the gods anyway."

"I don't believe you, and tomorrow I will leave, but Charity is coming with me whether she wants too or not." said Felicity. She stomped upstairs.

"How could you have let them slip pass you like that Gabrielle." Xena said.

"I don't know one minute I was awake and the next I was out cold." Gabrielle said.

"I just can't believe she managed to drug us all including Charity, after I put her down I started to get sleepy." Xena said.

"Yea." Cyrene agreed.

"We have to go after her than." Solan said.

"Definately." said Xena. They all changed into better travel clothes and hurried after Felicity and Charity. Xena prayed they found them, but so far to many people had used the road for her to pick up a trail just yet. Felicity was smarter than she let on. They came to the fork in the road and there were two sets of tracks leading away from the fields and into Amphipolis.

"Gabrielle, Mother, Lila you go that way and Solan I will go to the right." Xena said. They nodded and split up. Xena and Solan hurried on the trail they both knew was the right trail.
