Greeting and Salutations my good people! Haku1013 here with another IZ/Disney songfic. Today's song goes out to the winner ManiacMagic and their suggestion of Reflection(Mulan).

Now to dear ol' ManiacMagic, I hope you like it. If you don't, then its probably because you didn't really tell me anything else you wanted other than to make an IZ'd version of the song.

To everyone else, Enjoy!

Tak sighed as she entered her room. Turning on her lights, she dragged her feet to her bed. She couldn't believe it, couldn't believe them. How could they, the Control Brains, do this? Had she not been a suitable invader? Had she not given enough of her time, of her life, to them? Apparently not, for the Control Brains had chosen her for a small group of Irkens.

This news brought her up a bit from her sadness, but when she heard the words 'Janitorial' and '70 years,' she fell down again, nay, deeper than she had. She felt like dying.

Sitting on her bed, Tak closed her eyes, her head hanging. She felt the need to cry, to let out these feelings… but she couldn't. Looking at her clock, Tak noticed how late it was. Sighing, she picked up herself up off the bed, which was a hard task because of her invader armor.

Walking, or really dragging her feet, to the bathroom, Tak moved to the mirror, taking notice of her bad image. She was caked in dirt and grime, her clothes torn, her armor damaged beyond repair, and her antennae crooked, one bent over her face in an awkward fashion. Today was a disaster.

Of course some idiot would destroy area she was in. Of course she would be the one that the rescue drones would not see or hear. Of course she would have to MacGyver her way out of the rubble. Of course this would all happen to her.

Moving the antenna from her face back into its original position, Tak again felt the need to shed tears. She felt miserable as she held them in. Staring into the mirrors reflection, Tak took in her appearance.

She was shorter than the average female, something everyone constantly made sure to remind her of. It was why she tried so hard at everything. Her antennae were curled in a square fashion, something that wasn't seen in many females. Then there was the implant in her head. It gave her slight mind-altering abilities, but it was flaw none the less. Many saw it as a need for attention, some thought of it as a compensation, and most others thought it was the only way for her to pass her invader tests.

Sighing, Tak felt the need to release these feeling somehow. And so she did.

Look at me, she began, I will never pass for an invader, or a perfect Irken. Wiping off the dirt and grime, Tak began to remove her armor, revealing several scars along her torso, souvenirs from her training.

Can it be I'm not meant to play this part? Tak asked her reflection. She felt a small wetness falling on her cheek. Wiping it with a finger, Tak took notice that it was a tear. Now I see that if I was truly be myself, she looked to the mirror and watched as she lost control, and tears falling freely, I would break my Tallests pride.

Slapping herself across the face, Tak tried taking control again. In seconds, she felt the burning in her eyes stop. Looking back into the mirror, she saw that her purple eyes now had a tint of red in them. There was also a red mark on her face where she slapped herself.

Who is this girl I see staring straight back at me? Closing her eyes, Tak took a moment to compose herself. When she opened her eyes, she saw not a reflection of herself, but an image of an armor-donned warrior. Why is my reflection someone I don't know?

Clenching her eyes and balling her claws into a fist, she released some of her anger and turmoil. Feeling blood drip down her hand, Tak opened her eyes only see that she had destroyed her mirror. It was now broken in several pieces, most of them on the floor. Bending down to clean the mess, Tak couldn't help but notice that in each piece was a reflection of herself. Some of the pieces had the image she saw a moment ago, while others had an image of an ordinary female dark purple eye with matching clothes.

Somehow I cannot hide who I am though I've tried, Tak picked up every piece and after throwing them away, when will my reflection show who I am inside?

Wrapping her now bleeding hand in some gauze, Tak began walking out. Hearing a crunch under her feet, Tak saw that she had forgotten a single piece, which was now broken straight down the middle.

This piece or pieces now, both had a reflection like the others. An image of the warrior was on one piece and on the other was the normal female. The unusual part, however, was that the images were only half, cut straight down the middle like the piece they were on. Tak held the two pieces side by side and slowly connected them, having them form a perfect image.

Closing eyes, once again, Tak opened them to see her reflection.

When will my reflection show…

Throwing the pieces into the trash with the others, Tak walked out of the bathroom, still dragging her feet.

…Who I am…

Returning to her bed, Tak fell onto the mattress, instantly feeling sleep tug at her.

...Inside?

As she surrendered to the Lord of Dreams, the last thought that crossed her mind was spoken aloud, "Whoever is the cause of this will pay."

Ok, again, I hoped you liked it. Its a little too short for me, but hey, its a short song. No seriously, the thing is only, like, two paragraphs. I picked Tak for this song, because they only Tak we see in the show is her soldier/invader form. We must remember that underneath all that... invader-ness is a normal female Irken who can feel. Even if she doesnt want too.

Anyhow, Review. Tell how you liked it, and tell me some more suggestion. Only seven more to go!
