An Extraordinary Life Part 2

By: Emerald

As Xena and Gabrielle awaken fataly destroyed....,

Xena Gabrielle?......Are....are you okay?
Gabrielle I'm fine now that you taught me how to treat a wound like this...What about you?
Xena I think this is it for me, but Gabrielle,......uh....

Xena could not finish her sentance.

Gabrielle Don't talk, lucky for me this wasn't a poisen arrow. You need to get help for that gash in your back.
Xena Shhh. Gabrielle, I know this place. It's King Galahm's palace...the King who Kayla and Arabis were talking about. We're in the guest room.
Gabrielle How do you know this place?
Xena couldn't talk anymore. She gave Gabrielle a look that Gabrielle understood. It meant she knew the palace by attacking it long ago.
Gabrielle Oh, Okay...listen Xena. I'm going to get help for you. I'll be back.

Xena shook her head and tried to lift her hand.

Gabrielle What?
Xena G..G..Gabri..elle. Watch for the...
Xena died before she could warn Gabby.
Gabrielle Xena! Xena, Xena?

Arabis came from behind Gabrielle.

Arabis She's done for. Now it's your turn.
Gabrielle I don't think so!

Gabrielle grabbed her staff and whacked Arabis in the stomach.

Gabrielle I'm mad..Real mad!
Abrabis knocked the staff out of Gabrielle's hands and Gabrielle had to use her hands to fight... It was tough but Gabrielle used pressure points and killed Arabis. Gabrielle ran outside to the camp that Gabrielle and Xena were at. She hopped on Argo and tok her to the castle.

Gabrielle Good girl Argo, stay.
Gabrielle dragged Xena outside to Argo and rode off. As soon as Gabrielle reached Athens, she told the nearest doctor what had happened. The doctor looked over Xena and assured Gabrielle that she was dead. This has happened so many times, I'm actually getting agrivated. The doctor looked puzzled.

Doctor There is a way you might be able to get her back though.
Gabrielle I figured that. What do I have to do?
Doctor (Still looking puzzled) Ummm, this might be a little tricky.
Gabrielle I'm ready for anything.
Doctor You have to die yourself.
Gabrielle Excuse me?
Doctor How did Xena die?
Gabrielle She was stabbed in the back by someone whose really gonna get a punch when I finish dying.
Doctor What was the relationship she had with this person.
Gabrielle Um, I'm not sure. All I know is that she hated him and he hated her.
Doctor So you must be stabbed in the back by somene who hates you. And you hate back.
Gabrielle That can be arranged. But will I be dead forever?
Doctor See, that's the tricky part. After you die, Xena has a special amount of time to live inside her body. As do you. You must find Xena, give her this to drink (hands her a bag of liquid), this to eat (hands her a bag of powder), and this (hands her a dagger).

Gabrielle What's the dagger for?
Doctor You and Xena will be in a world of oppisites. All your enimies will be friends, and all your friends will be enimies. Exept you and Xena will be normal. The dagger is for when something or someone is attacking you, use the dagger to kill it. Anything else won't work. You only have one hour to find each ther...but you have anther 24 hours to get out. If exeed any of those time limits. You are stuck in the oppisite world, if not that world, then Tartarus.
Gabrielle I have t get killed first right?
Doctor Yes, The time doesn't start until you die. Go!
Gabrielle Thank you!
Doctor Wait! Ther's also going to be another Xena. An oppisite Xena. The friend that is you enemy. The same with Gabrielle.
Gabrielle Okay, Goodbye!
As Gabrielle took the powder and the liquid, and the dagger. She went to find Callisto.

Callisto Gabrielle, what a surprise.
Gabrielle Help me.
Callisto What?
Gabrielle You have to kill me.
Callisto Happily!

Callisto took her sword out.

Gabrielle Not that fast! It has to be in my back.
Callisto Then turn around!
Callisto stabbed Gabrielle in the back and then left. Gabrielle layed there dead.

<<< In the Oppisite world >>>

Gabrielle Whoa! That hurt!
Gabrielle saw the doctor walking by.

Gabrielle Oh Hi Doc,!

The doctor growled at her.

Gabrielle Oh, Yeah....Uh-oh......
