Xena and Gabrielle try to help a village Xena once decimated from getting attacked once more. Meanwhile they must deal with the hatred of the victims Xena left behind there and with the pain of a young bard having to come to terms with the realities of her hero's past. MUST READ! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! [See note under THE DEMON about Rachel2's stories] - 40 pgs., 1996. http://ausxip.com/fanfic/warlordlegacy.html THE PRINCESS BARD A departure for Rachel2, this story is a takeoff on a popular movie - it has Gabby returning to the Amazons where she must go on an official mission as their Princess. You aren't human if parts of this don't make you double over in laughter.

DIARY OF A MADWOMAN My first attempt at Fan Fiction. I always wondered how Callisto became the lunatic she has, so I decided to tell her story my way :) X&G have not quite yet admitted their feelings toward one another, and Callisto thinks she can use that against Xena. But along the way Callisto figures out that maybe she isn't so inhuman after all, finding herself inexplicably drawn to a certain blonde Regent... http://members.tripod.com/~Barderella/madwoman1.html LIAISONS RIDICULEUSE w/ Alexiares BY THE GODS the unthinkable has occurred!!! Rachel and Alexiares have combined their talents to bring you what they consider to be a "Remarkably funny, yet still somewhat interesting piece...." Eponin and Solari get volunteered to take an invitation to Ankithea, resulting in Thraso and Eumache making a trip to Arboria for the joining ceremony of Regent Ephiny and Callisto. Embarassing predicaments, practical jokes and all out hilarious and improbable situations are just part of the thrill ride here! So, if u are in the mood for a heavy dose of laughter and romance, take a peek at this continually developing escapade...oh, and don't forget to have a cold drink near! :) http://members.tripod.com/~Barderella/liaisons1.html

ENDLESS TWILIGHT Three thousand years ago, Ares tricked Xena into immortality. The only way she can become mortal again is to destroy him, but so far she has been unsuccessful. In present-day New York City, Xena at last has a weapon that can kill Ares, and she finally tracks him down in a very unexpected place. But when she discovers that Ares' current wife, Alison Carter is the reincarnation of her eternal soulmate Gabrielle, things get rather complicated. http://www.academyofbards.org/fanfic/r/rainbard_endlesstwilight.html

HOLDING ON Set just after the events of Motherhood, Xena and Gabrielle both feel like they are losing each other. It's a beautiful piece that I found very moving. I loved it. Raine crafts this short story quiet well. The proper ending to Motherhood. http://ausxip.com/fanfic9/HoldingOn.html

LIKE CHAKRAM FOR CHOCOLATE If you thought Rastro and Maddog were funny after reading SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN FRIENDS, you're going to think BRILLIANT after reading this second effort. In the words of Caesar, with this new tale the Lurkers *define* themselves as two of the nuttiest...and most hilarious bards in the Xenaverse!! This is actually beyond hilarious! Maintaining the PMS theme of their first story, the Lurkers here have Xena and Gabby meet up with a lost band of Aztecs who as a peace gesture decide to share a mysterious dark powder with the Gabster, showing her how to make a muddy mixture with it that is guaranteed to cure the Warrior Princess' "pissy" behavior. The poor Aztecs never suspect, however, the - er - rather strong effect their concoction will have on the bard who after tasting it is suddenly convinced the mixture is better than sex!...THIS IS A MUST READ!! - 5 pgs., 5/28/97 http://xenafan.com/fiction/content/likechakram.html - XGF 3 - 19/12/06 SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN FRIENDS I shared this little tale with friends at work today and we were still laughing hours later! Suddenly feeling NOT so fresh, a "synchronized" Xena and Gabby discover that they are out of some crucial supplies and are both getting VERY grumpy when an old friend saves the day. Your funny bone may not recover from this! <8) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! - 5 pgs., 5/7/97 http://xenafan.com/fiction/content/synch.html

THE QUEST CONTINUED Rebecca delivers a second solid hit tonight with this sweet, EXTREMELY passionate little tale that takes place immediately after the events in the episode THE QUEST as Xena and Gabby sort out the feelings between them. This one gets my DO NOT READ AT WORK warning >:) - 7 pgs., 4/28/97 http://xenafan.com/fiction/content/thequest.html - XGF 3 - 16/12/04 HEAVEN DOWN HERE This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful, well-written, moving and passionate alt. stories available in XWP fan fiction today. This first-time tale made my list of all-time favorites even before I finished reading it. It has Xena and Gabrielle traveling to one of the Amazon's border towns where Xena joins the Amazons to battle an evil warlord. Meanwhile, the warrior princess is engaged in an inner battle as well - determined not to show the growing feelings she has for a certain bard. Problem is that bard has plans of her own and to achieve these she is willing to risk it all - even her heart and soul. Rebecca achieves here one of the most fiercely passionate and tenderly romantic depictions of the Xena/Gab relationship in alt. fanfic. An exceptional read which receives my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!! [See also the epilogue WILDFIRE] - 46 pgs., 4/28/97 http://xenafan.com/fiction/content/heaven1.html WILDFIRE For all of you who LOVED Rebecca's unforgettable HEAVEN DOWN HERE (and if you still haven't read this incredible story - you are hereby ORDERED to do so right NOW! ;-) comes this MARVELOUS new epilogue set the morning after HEAVEN DOWN HERE. Sizzling does not even come close to describing this little addition to the story which has Xena and Gabrielle dealing with perhaps one of their biggest challenges to date...the bard's newly awakened appetite for things OTHER than food. Ahhhh but those girls DO love a challenge >:) You might have to stock up on some vitamins before tackling this new offering...possibly call the Amazon Ice Company if your running low on ice, avoid at work...you all know the drill by now ;-) I'm certain it will be as good for you as it was for me :) VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 6 pgs., 4/15/98 http://www.altfic.com/subtextfic/Xena/hall/wildfire.htm I'M RIGHT HERE Well-known in Xena fanfic for her uniquely romantic treatment of the Xena/Gab relationship, Rebecca makes a solid addition to that list of memorable interludes with a sizzler of a tale set immediately after a battle during which Xena came very close to losing her bard. Sensing the warrior's distress Gabrielle tries to soothe her partner, awakening instead a desperate need in them both to reaffirm their love, reaffirm life, and reaffirm the fierce passion flowing through their veins. I don't think living in Miami had ANYTHING to do with the marked temperature increase I experienced reading this little gem ;-) Rebecca's latest should get you nostalgic for those simpler days of Xena fanfic. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 2 pgs., 8/30/99 http://ausxip.com/fanfiction/i/imrighthere.html - XGF 3 - 7/8/07 THE PAYMENT Set after the events in the episode THE PRICE, this tale has Xena deeply troubled by her behavior during the stand-off with the Horde and the bard determined to get back the warrior she loves so well. Emotional and passionate. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 9 pgs., 11/24/97 http://ausxip.com/fanfic/thepayment.html - XGF 3 - 24/3/05

ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT This masterpiece is the favorite of many a Xenite. When it was first released in December 1996 it made Xenaverse history, truly elevating the quality of XWP fan fiction to a new level. Known to have influenced some of the best bards writing today, talents like WordWarior, Wishes, and Anon among others, this is an incredibly emotional hurt/comfort tale that explores the dynamics of Xena and Gabrielle's friendship. EVERY fan fiction reader NEEDS to read this. It receives my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! [Note: the story is the first part in a larger epic Rebekah planned to write called NOR THE BATTLE TO THE STRONG] - 45 pgs., 12/1996, re-released 5/13/97 and 12/3/99 AWARDS: "Getting Serious" Swollen Bud Award (May 1, 2000) http://www.bejay.com/cave/stories/fanfic/xenaff/attn.htm

FUTURE IMPERFECT? A light-hearted bit of fun.

Xena and Gabrielle (finally) accept the depths and ramifications of their love and commitment. With Gabrielle about to fully undertake her reign as Amazon Queen, what does this mean for the tribe, who last saw Xena when she abducted Gabrielle and horse-dragged her from the village? Similarly, Ares sees this predicament, along with the theft of an enchanted chalice, as the opportunity to challenge Artemis for Xena's allegiance. Can Xena retrieve the chalice from the keeping of a vicious warlord, win over the hearts of the Thessalian Amazons and defeat Ares once and for all? http://www.academyofbards.org/fanfic/r/redraven_rains1.html

EVERYTHING TO DO WITH LOVE Rocfan's debut on the Web comes with this fantastically romantic new story that has Xena and the bard having a conversation about their feelings for one another. This is beautiful, sweet, and very loving. A nicely written offering you cannot miss! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 9 pgs., 1/20/98 http://www.obsession14.com/XenaRotica/Rocfan/love.htm

COMRADES IN ARMS In trying to explain the Xena/Gab TV relationship, this story sets out to do the impossible but surprisingly ends up presenting a rather realistic view that is sweet and funny and very much based on the love these characters have for one another. COMRADES IN ARMS basically follows our two heroines through their adventures and travels after the deaths of Perdicus and Callisto to the time just after they part ways with Cecrops. The story doesn't dwell on what we saw on the TV episodes but rather - what we didn't - the days in between adventures, the nights by the campfires, the traveling on the road. We see Xena and Gabrielle first turning to one another almost by accident, while missing past loves in fact. The initial explorations are playful and curious with Xena thinking she is simply a temporary solution for the bard. It is at the thought of loosing her that Xena begins to realize just what her companion means to her. The only question is...does Gabrielle feel the same? This is well-written and VERY well plotted to synchronize with the TV series. Some of the exchanges between Xena and Gab are simply priceless. Be aware, however that in depicting a different type of relationship between the warrior and bard, this story is an acquired taste. Fun and definitely worth reading though. DO NOT MISS! - 26 pgs., 6/97 http://sapphicvoices.com/Fanfiction/comrades.html XENA'S GOWN A wonderfully sensual, romantic story that speaks straight to the heart. Hoping to avoid temptation, Xena is getting ready to pass up a night at an inn in a comfortable bed - getting ready to spend the night with Argo as she has done so many other nights - when a certain bard awakes and presents her with a beautiful gift... This one will warm the heart and leave you with a big old grin. NOT TO BE MISSED! - 3 pgs., 12/8/97 http://ausxip.com/fanfic/x-gown.html - XGF 3 - 22/11/04

TRIALS, CHALLENGES, AND CHANCES Gabrielle wants to have a joining ceremony with Xena. But it isn't easy to get Artemis' blessing. Xena first has to prove that she is worthy. http://www.academyofbards.org/fanfic/r/romansilence_trials.html

SOMETHING I NEED Just what is it that Xena has that Gabrielle needs? http://bearblue.150m.com/library/1990s/STO/wildfic/hunger.html

WHEN THE TIME COMES I absolutely LOVED this short story- just loved it. It's a story of a dream and the realisation that good things will happen to the bard and her warrior. This is such a beautifully written story that will make you smile. Well worth the read. Have I mentioned how much I love this short story? :-) http://ausxip.com/fanfiction/corsaro/when_the_time_comes.htm

A CHANGE OF PERSPECTIVE The half sister of Callisto poisons Gabrielle. http://www.ausxip.com/fanfic6/achange.html - XGF 3 - 5/1/04 AND I WAIT A sensual, almost poetic vignette chronicling the unbridled desire and adoration between two soulmates. Very nice. - 2 pgs., 1/9/99 http://ausxip.com/fanfic6/andiwait.html - XGF 3 - 20/12/06 RAGING HEART Save some of that Amazon ice ordered during the reading of A SIMPLE TWIST OF FATE to help you better handle this second Rosemary classic - a first-time story written back in the Summer of 1996 which has the warrior and bard surrendering to the feelings between them as they deal with past lovers and determined ruffians. Very romantic, loving treatment of the relationship with strong characterizations of both heroines. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 22 pgs., 1/9/99 http://ausxip.com/fanfic6/ragingheart.html A SIMPLE TWIST OF FATE After nearly three years of writing Xena fanfic and influencing many a bard exposed to her fiction through small private mailing lists, Rosemary comes at last to the Web bringing with her some classic Xena yarns, among them this early warlord/slave tale which helped to establish the genre and created a CLEAR need for that Amazon Ice Company so many of us rely on these days >:) Written in the Fall of 1996, this story is set in alternate reality where Xena and Gabrielle meet under very different circumstances. A long-time slave already, the young woman from Poteidaia doesn't expect her life to be any different as she waits to be purchased by the next warlord but different indeed it starts to be as soon as she becomes property of the Destroyer of Nations. Gentle despite her toughness and caring despite her cruelty, the warlord starts to win over the slave, enveloping Gabrielle in a passion so fierce that soon nothing else matters and as one heart surrenders, another is finally conquered. A delivery of PLENTY of Amazon ice is definitely in order before tackling this one folks. A SIMPLE TWIST OF FATE inspired many of the best alt. bards working today providing ALL sorts of interesting motivation ;-) It's a fun read and historically fascinating for anyone interested in the development of Xena fanfic through the years. A MUST READ! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 20 pgs., 1/9/99 http://ausxip.com/fanfic6/asimpletwist.html - XGF 3 - 18/4/05
