What's With the Sun?
Sina and Gabby round up all their friends to battle an unseen force that threatens their existence! Will Xena yet again save the world? The premise for that story was taken from a children's tale titled "Someone Is Eating The Sun" by Ruth A. Sonneborn, where a bunch of farm animals experience the same horror. I read that while sorting through some of my old stuff at my parents' house, and found it too cute to pass up. :-)

Pillow Talk
Some serious soul-searching and a pillow fight during a sleep-over at Gabby's.

We Got Him, Gabrielle!
Sleep-Over II - a bad b/w horror movie in the middle of the night has the girls in a stir. Rated PG for messy violence against murdering monster

Finally! Summer Camp is here! But what would a camp be without proper supervision...? More fun for the kids, in Sina's opinion.

A Bowl of Tsunami
The sea is a formidable opponent. Especially when it's a certain little Warrior Princess who is braving its storms... Rated G.  It takes place some time after "Wardrobe Warrior".

Remember When, Gabrielle?
An unexpected reunion after many, many years does not turn out the way either Sina or Gabby imagined. Rated PG.

Always, Gabrielle
Lana discovers that it's not always easy to stick to an old childhood promise when Sina disappears, leaving only a cryptic e-mail message.

As The Dragon Flies by Verrath uber, rated G
Here is the 15th story in the Tell-Me-Series. Xena and Gabrielle realize it is better to let sleeping monsters lie, and more importantly, not to mess with their toys. Sina, however, refuses to learn ANY lesson at all.

 

Temptation of Eve - Phantom Bard
This is a general story with Eve on a God given mission, without Xena and Gabrielle watching her back.  The setting is Judea, twelve years after "Path of Vengeance".  God calls Eve to Jerusalem to protect a special boy, and she fears she may have to forsake Eli's teachings to save him.  Based on a short passage from the gospel of Luke.

Third Time Lucky - Joanne Boyle [unfinished]
This story is set between the fifth season episodes "Succession" and "Animal attraction". Xena and Gabrielle are enjoying a quiet moment between battles, but little do they know some unfinished business is about to interupt this brief moment of peace. Ares makes his presence felt, as does an old adversary. Gabrielle gets stoned (again!).

Truth Be Told (The) - CJ Shoup
Xena "helps" Joxer drop his warrior look, but is it for the better?

Truth Shall Set Us Free - Mikki Hibbens
This is Mikki's answer to the finale. It's a little angst, a little venting, a little wishful thinking and a lot fantasy. There's no major spoilers but there are references to events depicted in AFIN.

Turning a Corner - Web Bard
This story picks up at the end of the "Is There a Doctor In The House" episode. Xena comes to grip with the fact that she almost lost her bard for good and how much their friendship really means to her. Rated G.
