Sword drawn, she walked towards the odd noise and gasped at what she saw.

There was a nude woman in the clearing, the fattest woman Xena had ever seen. The woman was cooing something, beckoning towards Xena.

Wary, Xena still decided to approach.

"Welcome child, I see you're a fit young warrior."

"Who are you and what do you want?"

"I want to give you peace, Xena, a peace I've already given to your friend Gabrielle, though she doesn't know it yet. As for who I am, let us just say that I am a comforter, largely dealing with food. Come closer..."

Xena did so, ready to strike once she figured out what this odd woman had done to Gabrielle.

However, before Xena could react, she was hugged fiercely by the woman, gobs of fat smothering her as the woman cooed again.

"Grow big, slow, lazy, feed that appetite of yours, feed your friend Gabrielle, the both of you grow and grow until you can't move"

Xena blacked out.

When Xena opened her eyes again, she found herself in her bedding, Gabrielle already up, the sound of sizzling meat coming to her ears.

GURGLE!

Xena's eyes widened at that but she got to her feet, walking up to Gabrielle.

"I had the weirdest dream last night," Xena said.

"Me too, some fat woman told me to get fat."

Suddenly, Gabrielle's stomach let out a loud growl of its own.

Blushing, Gabrielle lowered her eyes.

"That food almost ready? I'm starving!"
