Thoughts In The Mirror

by TiredGamer
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will not deny the truth.

I will not deny my responsibilities.

I will not deny my feelings.

I will not deny the dreams.

I will look her in the eyes.

I will acknowledge my superior.

I will ask for her hand.

I will say the words.

I will say the words I know are true.

I will tell her my heart.

I will not give up.

I will not back down.

I cannot listen to the voices.

I cannot listen to the doubts.

I cannot deny myself.

I cannot deny my heart.

I cannot forget.

I must never forget.

I must remember her.

I must keep going.

I must not be afraid.

I must not cry.

I need to be strong.

I need to look at her.

I need to be there.

I will be there for her.

I will be there for myself.

I need them.

I will not let them go.

I can do it.

We can do it.

I must do it.

I will go on.

I will never stop trying.

I know that he believes in me.

I know they believe.

I am as good as I let myself be.

I am everything I set out to be.

I will succeed.

I will be victorious.

I cannot be defeated.

I will stay with them.

I can do this.

We can do this.

Brock checked his bag, then his watch. "Look at the time, guys! We sure spent alot of time in the bathroom today, didn't we...?"

Ash grumbled and picked up his backpack. "Let's go!"

Misty smiled. "Everyone needs a little time in front of the mirror... even you, Ash Ketchum!"

"Ah, nothin' like a lil' check o' da fur ta make da day start right!"

James grinned. "I always look perfect, I don't need a mirror!"

Jesse, stifling a laugh, poked the Rocket. "So that's why you carry that beauty mirror with you?"

"Yooou're just jealous because I have one and you don't!"

Jesse tilted her head to one side. "I seem to remember I don't need one, since I can just borrow yours!"

"Dat's right, we all git a look in dat fancy thing!"

Author's Note: For unexplained reasons, I just suddenly wondered what the characters thought while looking into the mirror. Well, this is what came of those thoughts. Well, that and me remembering, er... Sailor Moon (okay, I just sunk real low on certain people's respect lists... oy! But it's an interesting series darnit... ah well). Specifically when Nehelenia (ah, the joys of not knowing how to spell stuff!) is staring into the mirror... This is even stranger seeing I wrote this freestyle (meaning I have the Reply box open and I just spent 15 minutes writing what went through my mind instead of doing it in my word processor)! Ah well, I hope nobody thinks it's extremely freaky, even if they think *I* am...
