My first form. That's what it was. In those dreams I was having, it was my first form. Kold had showed me some photos of myself. My first form… my second form… and my third and fourth. But… they hadn't been pictured of me. There was one of me as a child. That one was me, I could tell. But all the other photos – when I was an adult – they were all photos of that monster…
So it has four forms. And I guess now… it has five. It copies all of my forms. It's managed to convince everyone that it's just my reflection. It stays in the mirror, it only comes out when I'm alone. And only I can hear it when it talks…

"Frieza-kun."

What was that?! I heard that woman again!
"Who's there?!" I demanded. "Tell me who you are!"
"Frieza?" Kold looked at me. "… Who are you talking to?"
"You didn't hear her, did you?" I replied.
"Hear who?"
"I hear things… I see things… but nobody else does!" I told him. "Just like nobody else realises that that thing in the mirror is not me!"
"Oh, not this again…" Kold sighed. I'd told him about the monster. But he'd said it was just a dream. He didn't understand…
"It's true!" I protested. "That thing was on my bed! It told me it had -"
"Frieza, that is BULLSHIT!" Kold roared. I flinched, and ran over to the other side of the room. I trembled as I stared at him. He's angry… please… don't hurt me… don't hurt me…
It's all I can think about. Why? Why am I afraid every time he raises his voice?
"What on EARTH are you doing over there?!" Kold growled. "Frieza, I'm getting fed up of this! Son, I've tried to be patient with you, but if you're going to run away every time I speak –"
"Please be quiet!" I squatted down. I'm shaking.
"Why?" Kold growled. "What are you so afraid of?"
"I have no idea…" I replied. "You won't hurt me… will you?"
"Of course not."

Kold walked over to me and held out his hand. "Come here, son."
"… Is Raddan Vegeta's father?" I asked him.
"… No!" he snapped. "Vegeta's father is ALSO called Vegeta!"
"So there ARE two Prince Vegetas." I said. Ha ha! He'd slipped up there.
"No – I -" Kold stammered. He frowned. "Be quiet!"
"The first Prince Vegeta – was Raddan his father?" I asked.
"How should I know?!" Kold snarled.
"You DO know! You know about all of them!" I protested. "You met Raddan, didn't you?"
"I've never even heard of him –"
"Why won't you tell me?!" I demanded.
"Because you don't need to know!" Kold argued. "Raddan was a business associate of mine years ago, when you were just a kid. We didn't get on; things happened; our races became enemies; you killed the saiyans. End of story!"
"I didn't kill them!" I insisted. "That thing –"
"Is your damn reflection!" Kold shouted. "I am getting sick and tired of all this monster business! Get a grip, Frieza! YOU killed Vegeta, YOU killed the saiyans, and that "monster" is YOUR reflection!"
"That isn't me!" I swore. Why won't he believe me?
"Who IS it then?" he asked.
"I… don't know…"
"Pathetic!" Kold snarled. "I don't know what's happened to you, Frieza! It's just like when you were a kid!"
"I knew Vegeta!" I gasped. "Those dreams – I'm a child there, and I know him –"
"You never met him!" Kold roared. "I met Raddan once, I never saw him son and neither did you! Not until you were an adult, the he and you were business partners. Then you killed them! That's it! You DON'T know Vegeta!"
"You're lying to me!" I know he's lying! I KNOW I knew Vegeta as a child! I just don't have any real memories… But they're there. They're part of that hidden section. The one I lost even before that operation.

Kold glared at me.
"I am NOT lying! How DARE you accuse me of that!"
"I know Vegeta! I remember him –"
"What do you remember, then? Hm?" Kold challenged.
"I don't –"
"Exactly. You don't know. And that it because you DON'T remember! You can't, you never knew him as a child!"
"I did! I know I did –
"That's enough!" Kold silenced me. "I'll be in the study if you need me." He walked out.

I looked around the room.
"Vegeta…? Who were you…?"

"But I'm still the same."

What was that?! I looked around the room. I couldn't see anybody.
"Hello?"

"Frieza… What was that thing in the mirror last night?"

I turned my head and saw a boy sitting next to me. The brown-haired Prince Vegeta.
"I know you, don't I?" I said to him him.
"Sure. We met years ago." He told me.
"I knew it!"
"What was that thing?" he asked me. "It scared me…"
"You saw it?!" I gasped.
"Of course I saw it! I was right there with you when it came!"
"I didn't see you…"
"Well I was there." He frowned. "Listen, is that thing gonna kill us? It said it killed me… It said it killed you, too!"
"I know." I answered.
"Don't let it…" Vegeta begged. "Please… You promised you'd protect me! I always take care of you, so now it's YOUR turn!"
"Promise…?"
"You gotta keep that monster away from me!" he pleaded. "We'll fight it together! I bet it can't get both of us!"
"It did… it told me…" I replied.

"Frieza?" Kold's voice called. "Who are you talking to?" He said as he entered the room.
"I'm talking to Vege –" I looked at where Vegeta had been, but there was nothing there. "… Nevermind." I sighed. "You'll just say I was talking to myself…"
