The first two chapters went over amazingly well with everyone and you have no idea how happy that makes me. I've gotten a couple of questions that I'll go ahead and answer and a big thank you to all reviewers new and old. I'm glad everyone is enjoying this so far.

Dan2018: I want to see the new movie but I am currently broke (and college sucks) so I can't go, which is heartbreaking as I really love Broly and I'm glad he's coming back. If by some miracle I can see it, I'll probably be screaming in absolute joy the whole time.

Otaku4life16: For a while I considered scraping the last version entirely but there were certain scenes from the last version that I really liked and decided to put in this one. Some scenes were just too good to not include.

X3runner: I read the manga when I can because the last year has been a very stressful and busy year. And as for what Ivory is going to do to Gohan, I plan for her to "condition" him in a sense but I can't say much else about how that will go down because I don't want to spoil anything.

Also someone left a review on chapter 1 about Ivory going golden like Frieza, and not gonna lie, that idea made me giggle really hard. Especially considering that I made her my Earthling in Xenoverse 2 and I'm trying to get the Golden Armor for her (she's wearing the Crystal Set right now) and she knows most of Frieza's moves (Death Beam is her favorite super move, Supernova Cooler is her favorite ultimate move).

With that being said, let's see what Kirsi thinks of all of this. This chapter will be short, but it's more of an interlude than anything.


As much as Kirsi loved her daughter, there were times where she absolutely loathed her.

Don't get her wrong, Ivory was her everything. She watched her grow from a tiny infant into the woman she was today. She raised her, comforted her after Frieza's death, took her to beautiful planets to relax, and did what any good mother should. But did Ivory appreciate it?

No.

Ivory tossed her aside once she got where she wanted to be. Never mind all the time Kirsi invested into her, Ivory didn't appreciate any of it. Nor did she think of her mother in those years she trained to get stronger. Ivory's focus was on the Frieza Force and her own strength; whatever other obstacle was in her way was pushed aside, family included. She basically forced Kirsi to take a backseat while Ivory stole the show and did as she pleased.

Kirsi couldn't bring herself to hate her daughter: Ivory was her last living relative, last living blood of the Frieza Clan. If anything ever happened to her and Kirsi, there wouldn't be anyone left to take over the Frieza Force. Of course, Cooler had a wife and children somewhere out in there and King Cold had many illegitimate children he never claimed who could do it, but Kirsi couldn't trust any of their intentions. Who knew what they would do if they had control of the Frieza Force? No, Ivory was the last of the Frieza Clan in Kirsi's eyes and the only one who could properly control the Frieza Force.

But, Ivory wasn't quite ready for that yet. She pretended that she was, but she had no idea how to properly run their armies.

That wasn't Ivory's fault however. Kirsi had a lot of blame on her shoulders for Ivory's ego. After all, Kirsi was the one who inflated that ego, priming Ivory to take over the throne and filing her head with the ideas that she'd be an emperor who could be greater than Frieza. Kirsi had told Ivory time and time again that she would be a mighty ruler of their armies and an empress like no other. Kirsi fed into Ivory's ego so much, maybe that's why she turned out the way she did.

But ego aside, Ivory still had issues Kirsi yearned to correct. As soon as she became as powerful as Frieza, Ivory started acting like she was an empress instead of a princess. She tossed Kirsi aside and spent more of her time among soldiers rather than with her mother, creating her own unique and private faction, recruiting people soldiers like Biamuh and Sorbet to help her learn to be like her father, making the entire Frieza Force swear an oath to her, and asserting herself as an emperor to match that of Frieza. She even made a habit of undermining Kirsi's authority, making decisions for the army without consulting Kirsi first and reassigning soldiers without asking Kirsi's permission. She even went as far as overriding each and every one of Kirsi's new rules and went behind her back to undo every change Kirsi made. She didn't even apologize for anything she did and always justified it with "I'm doing what's best for the Force."

Ivory didn't know what was best for the force. All she was focused on was getting revenge and being as great as her father. She didn't care who she hurt along the way, she just wanted to fulfill her goals.

As much as it pained Kirsi to say it, Ivory was going down the same path as Frieza.

Frieza as intelligent, competent, and powerful, but he had an ego like no other. He'd been overconfident and that ended up killing him. Ivory was slowly leading herself into the grave believing that she knew what she was doing. But she didn't and it hurt that Kirsi couldn't stop her.

Kirsi wanted Ivory to blow up the planet for a reason. Frieza had been obsessed with the Saiyans and their legends, and that obsession ended up being the end of his life. Frieza had let the Saiyans that survived their planet's explosion live and that was his downfall. Ivory was doing the same thing now, letting the Saiyans live even though the easier option was to just get rid of the entire planet. She cursed Ivory for inheriting Frieza's ego; things would've been so much easier if Ivory had been obedient and just listened to Kirsi.

Instead, she ignored Kirsi's warnings and wanted to let the Saiyans live longer than necessary. 'Like father, like daughter.'

She blamed Frieza for Ivory's faults; Ivory had Kirsi's looks but Frieza's attitude. She should've known from Ivory's behavior as an infant. Always wanting to spend time with her father, accompany him on trips, let him tuck her in an read her stories, wanted to learn how to be just like her father. Kirsi didn't matter to either of them. Both her husband and daughter ignored her, treated her like nothing, used her when they needed her, then tossed her aside when she wasn't useful to them anymore.

And it hurt. Having one of the two people she loved the most die because they found her a nuisance hurt. And the fact that what Kirsi was saying could've saved their lives hurt more; if only Frieza had listened to her when she first asked him to just kill all the Saiyans, maybe he'd still be alive. And if Ivory had just listened to her, maybe it would save her life.

Maybe Kirsi was too forgiving. She did forgive Frieza for not heeding her words even though she had a feeling the Saiyans were trouble and she simply allowed Ivory to stay on this planet even though she knew it was foolish. Why? She couldn't answer that,

Still, that once again didn't excuse Ivory. Had Kirsi been cruel after Frieza's death, when Ivory desperately needed comfort from someone and found solace in her mother's arms? No. Kirsi had opened her arms and held Ivory like any good mother would, comforting her in such a trying time. Ivory had been heavily dependent on Kirsi for a little while after that, needing to confirm that someone she loved wouldn't be taken from her. At that time, Ivory had been an angel. Then Cooler and King Cold had died and Ivory became cruel, doing exactly what Frieza did and acting like Kirsi's ideas didn't matter.

If she had the power to, Kirsi would've taught Frieza and Ivory why they shouldn't disrespect her. But Kirsi was powerless to do anything to them except talk. Actually if Kirsi had power like Frieza and Ivory, she could've just killed the rest of the Saiyan themselves. But, she was virtually powerless to stop them both and ended up without a husband and on the verge of losing her daughter.

This plan was foolish. Ivory had a goal in mind and was ignoring all potential dangers. She said she had all bases covered but Kirsi didn't think so. Ivory was powerful, Kirsi knew that, but power meant noting if you didn't know how to use it or if it was turned against you. Like Frieza, Ivory was overestimating herself. She thought that just by being the strongest, her win was guaranteed. That's how Frieza thought, Kirsi was sure of it. And that ended up being his downfall. It would be Ivory's as well if she wasn't careful. Yes, she was taking precautions by laying low but the Saiyans had already proved how cunning they could be by avoiding death so many times and managing to kill the Cold family. Ivory had better learn from her family's mistakes or she was doomed to repeat them.

But Kirsi wasn't going to keep repeating herself. She'd try to guide Ivory as best she could, let her take the lead and go through with her ridiculous plan. Kirsi would be content to lounge around and let Ivory shower her with gift while she stayed here. But the moment this plan started to fall through (and it would go south, Kirsi just knew it), Kirsi was going to get someone from her own faction to blow the planet up so that they could leave. Kirsi would take Ivory's failure in stride, accept Ivory's apology when she realized how foolish she had been, and try not to gloat too much when Ivory begged her for forgiveness.

Whether or not she'd actually forgive her daughter was another matter entirely.

Every now and then, I'll be adding little chapters in-between that shows how Kirsi is feeling about how things progress. Because Kirsi's relationship with Ivory is important to the overall story, as well as Kirsi's relationship with Frieza. Kirsi herself is more than just a random character in this version of the story. When I first made Kirsi (or Aisuna as was her original name), she had little purpose and was just a character to pad the story. But when I re-wrote it, I actually gave her a story and an actual purpose and made her a real obstacle for Ivory.

Alright, enough of that tangent. Next chapter will pick things up a little bit as Ivory will meet someone very important.
