On the fourth day, she took a walk by the river as she thought and she was really missing Ulysses but maybe this was the way things had to be. “Why do you drive away what makes you happiest?” Athena asked as she appeared before Xena and she looked at her. “Because I can’t love him,” Xena said and Athena shook her head. “I don’t believe that and neither do you,” Athena said and Xena let out a breath as she started walking. “STOP and look at ME,” Athena yelled and Xena stopped and after a minute she turned and looked at Athena. “Do you remember Xena, months ago you were feeling empty and alone, like you were missing something important. Do you remember that you stood there and looked at me with tears of frustration in your eyes?” Athena asked and Xena nodded, “yes,” she said and Athena walked up to her. “Have you ever paid attention to the fact that since you’ve known Ulysses those feeling have gone away?” Athena asked and Xena looked at her, “what?” She asked beginning to see what Athena was saying, “I promised you that what your heart, what your soul was yearning for would come soon and it did.
I also told you that you wouldn’t recognize it right away,” Athena said and Xena looked at her. “You’re telling me that…” Xena started to say and Athena nodded. “Yes, yes Xena. He is what you have been looking for, you are what he has been looking for.” Athena said and Xena looked at her, “why are you pushing him away?” Athena asked and Xena looked at her, “my heart…won’t let me love him,” Xena said and Athena looked at her. “Because you’re stopping it. Whatever you’re afraid of, whatever fear it is that you’re holding, let it go,” Athena said and Xena looked at her. “I can’t,” she said tears rolling down her cheek and Athena looked at her, “take my hand Xena,” Athena said and Xena looked at the goddess then stepped forward and placed her hand in Athena’s and soon she felt the world swirl away like she often did when Athena transported her somewhere. “Where are we?” Xena asked as she looked around the huge temple, “the hall of destiny,” Athena said and Xena turned and looked at Athena who was walking over to where three women were and she followed Athena.
