Normally he would walk right pass the mirror in his living room, but not today. He cant tell why but today he sees something different in it.

He positions himself right infront of the mirror. Watching the stranger in the mirror, he remembers the face, the stature. "Time changes a man." He talks to himself. "Maybe it is time, to get a view of me again."

Just under his muzzle, his Stomach and the inside of his ears the strong red fur fades into a sandy yellow orange mixture.

He takes a moment to observe his body, an athletic body. Visible outlines of muscles shows how hard he trained to become what he is now, or more what he was.

Years of hard endurance and strength training.

His gaze wander to his Chest, tight muscles, a six-pack right under it. Now looking at his legs, strong legs, for carrying the heavy equipment back then, for chasing the foe and running from them.

He flinches his tail into the sight of the mirror, touching it, a normal fox tail, well groomed despite the years on the battlefield.

Touching the several scares hidden under the fur, the many years on the battlefield reflect in them, despite of his young age.

He breaks his gaze from the mirror.

"Like my father always said: you become yourself a stranger if you dont remind yourself who you are."

Looking with a final smile at the mirror before breaking himself fully from it.

    Feelings of foreboding flooded his senses as the hair on the back of his neck stood out. Someone had listened to his conversation, and was residing in the shadows of his room. How had he not sensed this before? “Whoever is here, step forward. Do so quickly or face my wrath.” A tall, muscular man stepped forward. A knight, he surmised, wearing jade colored armor with a coat of arms on his chest plate that he did not recognize, figures of two fighting dragons adorned his gauntlets, and in his hands, he threateningly…

When she looks in the mirror, she thinks "it looks like my mouth belongs to someone else, someone I don't even know" (17). Melinda never seems to find a good trait or feeling in herself, and mirrors just tend to make it worse. She doesn’t like what she sees, and always tries to hide or take down anything that shows her reflection. When she finds the closet space, one of her first thoughts was "the first thing that has to go is the mirror" (50). Her view of herself shows that she almost doesn’t even care anymore. Melinda goes to Effert’s one day, as instructed by her mom, to find some clothes that she likes. As Melinda steps out in front of the three-way mirror, the first thought on her mind is "eyes after eyes stare back at me, am I in there somewhere" (124).

She stopped caring about her looks and was not aware of it. There are age spots on her face that seem to have appeared over night.

It saddens her and she looks away. She feels ashamed of what she has become. She looks back at the mirror only to be looking into her eyes. With a hoarse voice she utters the words, “How did this happen?”…
