Story written on January 14, 2008 by writerz86.
“Now it’s your turn to realize what you and he have and make it work; Xena as a warrior you’ve already learned that you can’t let fear control you, that if you do, it could be the end of you and possibly the end of those you love, of things that mean the most to you. Take the same way in love, embrace that fear, don’t let it control you. People think that a hero is someone who risks their life for someone else’s life or for the greater good and that is true, but the greatest hero there is, is a person who risks their heart. They risk their heart despite what the outcome may be, that right there is a true hero.” Athena said and Xena looked at her, “any fool can risk his life but it takes a hero to risk his heart,” Xena said and Athena nodded. “Exactly,” Athena said and Xena looked at her then looked back out of the window as she thought about things. “You know Xena, you don’t have to defeat that fear in one day, take steps and you’ll find that one day that fear won’t be as strong and you’ll conquer it without even thinking about it.”
Athena said and Xena nodded then let out a breath, “I never thought of it that way,” Xena said then let out a breath. “I hurt him bad with my words,” Xena said and Athena looked at her. “I’ll take your advice but I need your help with something that’ll help me make it up to Ulysses,” Xena said and Athena looked at her. “Alright but as long as it’s not anything outrageous,” Athena said and Xena grinned. “I promise you its not,” she said and Athena nodded and then they were both gone in golden sparkles. Back at the Inn Ulysses still sat in his room on his bed; he didn’t know what Xena had done to him, he was sitting there and tears had just started rolling down his face. He wiped his face dry then let out a breath as he ran his fingers through his hair, “love sucks,” Ulysses said to himself as he thought about the argument he and Xena had. He thought about it over and over again, he even went back in his mind days before that to see if there was anything he could have done to make her react that way.
