The Debt
by ArdentTly
Gab and Xe and Argo
make three
As they trudge across this land.
They try real hard, the warrior and bard
For goodness and right they stand.
Sometimes Xe feels
lost, still tied to that cross
At the mercy of the Roman Elite.
But for the girl from away, she'd have died that day,
Twas a mercy for one filled with deceit.
As she watched
M'Lila die, with a tear in her eye
Xe vowed she'd been reborn that night.
So she turned away from the light shown her that day
And grabbed the darkness with all of her might.
Xe went to Chin
where she'd never been
And made Borias her man.
When he threw her out, with a shove and a clout
She became hunted and so she ran.
A woman there of
great beauty and fair
Took Xena into her heart.
She gave her a bath and showed her a path
Of goodness and love from the start.
Xe learned from Lao
Ma that there's a greater law
Than the one that comes with a sword.
So she turned her back on Ares and his pack
And dethroned herself as Lord.
So with a debt to
pay, Xe keeps darkness at bay
And tries so hard to atone.
With Gab by her side, it'll be quite a ride
Cos she'll never again be alone.
THE END.
