“Are those the fates?” Xena asked and Athena looked at her, “mortals aren’t usually allowed here but when I have a mortal on my hands whose as stubborn as you are, I have to show them a little of what they won’t see.” Athena said then walked closer to the tapestry of life and looked at it until she found Xena’s thread, “here Xena is your thread,” Athena said as she pointed to the deep red thread and Xena looked at it. “Very thick, very strong, long and bright; all signs that you have a strong, magnificent and long life ahead of you.” Athena said, “now look right below your line,” Athena said and Xena looked below her line to see a deep green line, “touch it,” Athena said and Xena looked at her then at the line. She slowly reached her hand out and when she closed her fingers around it she felt so much and that feeling was so familiar, like it was herself, “this…this is Ulysses,” Xena said and Athena nodded. “Follow the line Xena,” Athena said and Xena followed the line and the further she moved down she saw that her line and Ulysses’ line began to intertwine around each other.
She touched their lines and her mouth and eyes opened in surprise as she felt the connection, the extreme amount of love they had for each other. A tear fell from each eye and Athena took Xena’s hand from the thread and looked at the young woman who would be her best chosen yet. “Do you see now Xena? You’re fighting something that doesn’t need to be fought,” Athena said then stepped closer to Xena placing her hands on Xena’s face as she looked into her eyes and Xena looked into Athena’s eyes.
“You and he are meant to be, it’s as simple as that,” Athena said and Xena looked at Athena then shook her head as she swallowed hard then walked away to a window where she looked out at the bright, beautiful country then placed her hands on the glass as she leaned her head forward. “I’m so confused Athena, there’s so much love in my heart for Ulysses but there is also fear. Fear that he’ll hurt me,” Xena said and Athena looked at Xena as she walked up to her. “That’s not the fear that’s controlling you. You’re a strong woman Xena, even if you were to get hurt, even if your heart were to be broken again, it would undeniable hurt yes, but you would get through it and come out for the better, stronger.”
