One Last Breath by JLynn
Recommended by: Temora - 05.12.01
Genre: Classic
Sex/Violence Content: Alt
Length:Short Story, 6 pages - complete


Reading this story actually made my breathing slow down, if you can believe it. The first offering by supremely talented newcomer, JLynn, One Last Breath is a vignette told from Xena's perspective as she and the bard are crucified at the end of the episode The Ides Of March. Often excruciating to read, this tale is a beautifully written and powerful look at what could very realistically have been the last thoughts of the warrior on that dreadful day as she struggles to remain alive purely for the sake of her partner. Don't miss it, it's like a punch in the gut. (Of the literary kind)
