Gab and Xena got Naima away from the funeral pyre and hid her in a house, while the people who were going to burn Naima chase after them. Naima tells Xena that her soul is in danger, because of something in the future. Naima sends Xena into the future. When Gabrielle finds out, she demands to be sent into the future to help Xena. Naima agrees after relizing how important Xena is to Gabrielle. First, Naima gives Gab the secret weapon. Mehndi. Naima tells Gabrielle that the mehndi paste will be waiting for her in the future, and sends Gab to Xena. Soon after, the mob breaks though the door, and restarts the suttee.
As soon as the mob tosses Naima on to the funeral pyre, Xena, Gab, Alti, and Naima jump out. Alti and Xena begin fighting, and Xena is losing the fight until Naima comes and her mehndi begins to glow. Then Xena relizes the mehndi is the key, and defeats Alti with Gab and Naima's help. Naima then disappears into light, and has not been seen since.
