Maternal Instincts

Sacrifice II

Gabrielle- You are not evil. Never believe that. Hope: My mother thought so. She tried to drown me in a basket. She wanted me dead. She wasn't trying to drown you. She was trying to save your life.

Dahak has more important things in mind.

It has to be Xena. The monster lady made me promise.

Now that I'm back. The faithful will come by the thousands. The blood of the innocents will soak the holy ground.

She knows your secret and she's going to take it to the grave

You could be a soldier in Dahak's army. Instead you choose oblivion.

Gabrielle- The basket was all there was. I had to put you in it, or I had to watch you be killed. Now I had no choice. I loved you. Hope: You loved me? I prayed that the gods will protect you, and they did. They brought you home.

When I'm finished with you, you will get your reward. As promised.

A temple to a lesser god, changes are in order.

My father's kingdom is at hand. The age of darkness when Dahak will snuff out the people Xena loves until he's crushed her very soul. And when she goes, so goes the world

You're told what you need to know Callisto. Nothing more.

All I remember is, lots of water, me crying for my mom. She never came

I wanna know how you feel about me. Joxer: I feel um, well, I feel uh... Would you call it love? Joxer: Well, that's a huge word, but I'm uh, I think I have a nose bleed

Hope- Better to crush their dreams, destroy their future. We'll kill what their love most, their children.

Strange, there wasn't enough love in her to let me live. Yet people love her.

- What would you make of my feelings toward Xena? Joxer: Xena? Ya know. You love her more than anybody in the whole world. More than anyone

A familly Affair

Gabrielle- Why aren't you dead? Hope: Well, it's certain not for your lack of trying is it?

Gabrielle- I saw the fire. No one survives that. Hope: No one but me. Dahak's flame, rise in to save me. But then I've always been Daddy's little girl, haven't I? Is that why you never loved me? I loved you, I just had to stop you. Hope: For Xena? No, for us all.

Hope (as Gabrielle)- I can't believe you're here. Xena: The Gods themselves couldn't keep me away. Xena, when you didn't answer my messages, I thought... Xena: Messages? Gabrielle, I never got them, I thought you were dead, I thought I lost you for ever.

Hope (as Gabrielle)- If you never got my messages, then how did you I was alive? Xena: It's hard to describe, but I saw you. Now now, but some place in the future. The future, don't tell me you've become an oracle. Xena: Not a very good one.

Hope (as Gabreille)- You're right, there is danger here.

Hope- Hello beautiful. Are you cut? Did she hurt you? Let mother see.

Hope- My child, mother won't hurt you, no no.

Hope- It won't last long, when darkness comes, my child will wake, he'll be hungry.

Hope- What is it now? Four generations? Your parents, there's you, me, my pride, my joy. Your grandson mother, the Destroyer.

Hope- Xena knows who I am. Yes. Good. Rest now, tonight, I want you to enjoy every moment
