Chapter Text
When you look at yourself in the Mirror what do you see?
You see yourself of course, How tall you are, the color of your hair, the color of your eyes, what you are wearing. You might check yourself if anything is wrong.
For Guy Hamdon it had been quite an experience looking at himself at the mirror lately. About a year and a half ago when he looked at himself at the mirror, he saw himself as what he wanted to be, a big strong man; somehow imitating his father, Boxer Hamdon. But a lot more stylish and cooler.
He would also see his insecurities as well, he was slim and a bit short for a boy his age, his eyes were somewhat droopy and his voice was still a bit high, in fact if he wanted he could do a rather funny girly voice while imitating his sister or SheZow.
That would prove to be very helpful on his near future.
A year and five months ago he would look at himself with disbelief, He looked the same but now he lived on the suburbs. Closer to his best friend Maz, Closer to school, He had to take the bus to the city now which was a pain, and he had a pink ring permanently stuck to his finger.
No matter how hard he pulled he wasn't able to take it off, at first it was bothersome, worse with the outfit that came with it. Now he was SheZow. The pink cladded heroine that had been defending Megadale for countless generations, he had inherit this mantle despite being born male.
The suit was an eyesore for Guy, full body bright pink leotard with pink leopard print, a pair of white knee high boots with heels, a pink corsette with an S on the middle, a maroon skirt, a long maroon cape.
His eyelashes were now long, his hair was long, curled right before his shoulders, jet black and with a single pink stripe across it, even his nails were longer.
I he had doubts about his masculity before, now there was no doubt about it. He wasn't manly at all, his slim frame fitted perfectly on that outfit.
Before he knew it, in order to keep his powers he needed to up keep his apperance, work like a lady, move like a lady, look like a lady, he even had gotten more sentitive, at one point crying openly at the cinema.
It wasn't even during the movie, it was during a commercial.
Six months ago he caugh himself look at the mirror while he was on his SheZow uniform, he liked what he saw. He tough to himself that he looked beautiful, powerful, graceful and confident.
Then he returned to being just Guy Hamndon, an idea lingered on his head. Right across the street from him was a wig store, a wig on particular was on display, one that had a single pink stripe on the front.
His heart was pounding, his face blushed, his mind raced with a tousand reasons why he shouldn't buy it. But he did it anyway.
That was the first of many secret purchases, then it was a dress, then it was stockings, then high heels.
Five months ago, many supervillians had gotten an upgrade. Despite being able to stop them, The attacks had been too numerous and too frequent to be a coincidence.
After a series of bust to warehouses across the city they discovered they were taking this weapons from the same buyer, a gang of robots that exanged high tech weaponry in exange for girls with powers.
At one point they were kindapping girls who were just near someone with powers, that was enough to make them a target. After that they would dissapear leaving no trace behind.
A plan came to use Kelly, Guy's twin sister as bait to attrach them to the same location. Once there were with in reach Guy would transform and beat them up, get the interdimensional divise from them, rescue the girls, and bring them home safely.
But an idea came to Guy, Why use Kelly as bait and not simply dress himself as Kelly? Once he had the location of the bad guys he would use a tracker on his phone to call his sister and Maz so they would trace the location and bring the She-icle if it was necessary.
He would be safe, he is SheZow after all.
Of course never expected was that not only would the tracker not work, but his power ring as well.
A magic Jammer on the prison that made the ring useless.
It all seemed lost but then, He meet Marco Diaz.
He meet a lot of people on the dreaded school for wayward princesses, the princess pony head, Star Butterfly, the infinite mirror.
But the one that stock on his head was Marco Diaz, not only because he han inherit half of the powers of Shezow but he was a boy who dressed up as a girl as well.
He was brave, kind, smart, a bit to cautious but knew when to raise to the occation.
To say that Guy Hamndon was facinated by this enounter would be to undersell it. He tough about him a lot even if they had just meet. Guy tough it was mostly because he shared his powers with someone.
Marco kept me, The infinite mirror so he would be able to talk to Guy Hamndon even across dimensions.
All Guy needed was a mirror about the same size as me and I would be able to do the conection. On Mewmi this was a very common spell to comunicate among mirrors as if they were big glossy webcams and it was of course under my many abilities.
After the adventure at Saint Olga's and defeating the monstrous head mostress both returned home to their own dimensions.
All Guy wanted to do was talk to Marco.
Marco felt the same, somewhat. He had taken a pen and paper to ask as many questions about SheZow and the powers he had inherited due to the two of them splitting SheZow's powers.
They had agreed to call each other at night, I was the first one to point that their dimernsions might not even run on the same time zone, let alone the same time frame as time could be faster or slower on some dimentions.
With fear on their hearts they both still agreed. Seven o'clock at night.
Guy returned to his dimension After explaining quickly what had happened to Kelly, Shelia and Maz he ran to his room where he kept a mirror. Not bothering to awnser any of their questions
He placed it on the wall,Then like a tornado he cleaned his room.
Kelly and Maz looked at this with facination, Guy had never cleaned his room. Not even when Maz would stay over.
It too ke a minute to sync up to the other mirror, It was easy to find Shezow due to the aura emanated by the power ring. As the image came up both boys eye's widened.
It was like looking at a strange mirror. Both boys were about the same size, the same build, both were wearing a a hoddie, odly enough Guy's was blue while Marco's was red. Oposite and contrasting colors
The bed on the same position, a closet, Marco's room was organized full of books, charts notebooks. Guy's Room despite being cleaned up it was messy, lot's of posters of bands, and his skateboarding gear scattedn all around the place.
They were as different as they were similar.
They stared at each other for a minute.
It seemed to last forever
Guy was the first one to break the silence and say "Hi" Marco waved back and replied "Hola"
Guy was rubbing his elbow, something his sister knew meant he was nervous "I… see you like skateboiarding to, I didn't know that" Marco smiled and showed his board, it had the print of a phoenix under it " Yeah" Guy showed his board as well, it was hard to see what the print had been, at one point it was a robot but now it had faded due to a lot of use and lack of maintance.
The door to Guy's door bursted open,Guy's body tensed and his first instict was to cover the mirror with his body to make sure no one would see Marco's figure appearing magically from a Mirror.
Entering from the door were Kelly and Maz, Guy sighted in relief and stopped covering the Magic Mirror "Ever heard of knocking sister?" Kelly crossed her arms "Ever heard of locking the door if you want privacy?"
Maz walked pass both bickering sibblings "Cool, is this me Mirror? The one that can talk?" he then knocked on the mirror "Hello? Mister Mirror?" Marco smiled and awnsered "No, Sorry. The mirror is with me, The infinite mirror can't talk while we are using him" explained Marco
"Maz, Kelly, This is Marco. He helped me fight that giant monster teacher I was talking you about"
Kelly smiled teasingly "You barely explained what happened and rush to clean up and clean your room, I can see why tough". Guy blushed and glared at Kelly.
"Yeah, What happened there dude? You came back and barely explained" Asked Maz as he sat on the bed, Guy looked at his ring and smiled "Sure, Marco do you want to show them="
Marco placed carefully the notebook and pen he was carrying carefully on to his desk and then and showed his ring "Sure" Kelly's eyes widen as she saw the ring "W-Wait…Is that?"
Both boys screamed "You go girl!" at the same trime transforming right in front of Maz and Kelly into their new forms.
A pink and purple mist sorrounded both boys at the same time, engulfing them both. A bright light appeared sorrunding their bodies, in seconds their hair grew longer, their bodies were adorned with bows, frills and high heeled boots.
And a symbol appeared on their chest. En eclipsed sun for Guy and a Cecent moon for Marco.
Guy posed and winked "Pretty cool right?"
Maz was amazed at this. "Dude! You look like…."
"A hero?" interrupted Guy posing and flickering his hair
"No, It's more like…Ah…More girly…Like…"
"A princess?" completed Marco, blushing a bit.
"Yes! Thank you. You guys look like princesses"
Guy happily explained in detail what had happened and how I helped to distribute the power after I was assaulted by the two of them at the same time.
If they hadn't taken me out of that dimension I would be still angry.
But Kelly was not thrilled to see this , she smiled and nodded as her brother explained the story but most of it flew over her head.
Kelly Hamndon was a gifted student, if there was something she didn't understand she would research it to no end. Exept sports, Acording to her sports were for cavemen and it was only fun when there were statistics where involved like baseball or Football
But this was beyond her comprehencion, it made no logical sence. Sure she lived on a world where men made of ice lived, Lava monsters lived under the surface of the earth.
But this, This was outragious, This was unfair.
Her brother could have done this the whole time, Give her power. Giver the legacy she deserved.
Her heart sunk, she felt like nothing was at it's place anymore. Shadows got longer around her and every word comming out of this new person, this rando Guy had just meet felt like a stab on the back.
Maz pulled out a small digital Camera and showed it to Guy, who smiled and made a piece sign right as soon as the camera was facing his way. This amuzed Marco as he noticed that Guy was not shy to be in front of the camera, in fact he seemed pretty confident in front of one.
Guy then stood by the mirror and said "Come one, Pose with me" to Marco. Marco shyly imitated the pose that Guy was doing. Maz was taking several pictures, some of them on different angles. "Yeah girl, The camera loves you"
After a quick photo session Maz checked the images on his camera "Man, The light from the mirror looks weird on the pictures" said Maz crocking his mouth in disapointment. "You should comer over dude!" said Guy enthusiasticaly "Even if only so you can take some pics with us" Marco scratched the back of his head nervously, He had just survived a giant monster teacher in another dimension.
"I do have questions about this powers, So, I don't see why not…Exept I don't know how would I get there"
A voice comming from his window startle Marco making him cover himself "Dude, Dimensional scissors!" it was none other than Janna Ordona entering trough Marco's window with no warning. Marco closed his eyes as he jelled "Janna!" Loudly and covered himself with his bed sheets. "Get out of here!"
Janna walked passed Marco "Hey! Princess SheZow, Looking good" Guy smiled "Just Shezow, Thanks, you look good as well"
"Yeah, Not being brainwashed does wonders for the skin" said Jackie Lynn Thomas as she entered trough the window as well. Marco dropped the bed sheet and waved at Jackie nervously.
Guy smiled back at Jackie Lynn Thomas his smile was forced tough, seeing Marco acting so shy in front of Jackie Lynn Thomas bothered him a little. He wasn't sure why.
With a quick motion Janna produced a pair of interdimensional scissors out of her backpack "We can go visit, It will be like a slumber party" Maz was exited about this and nodded enthusiatically. "Sounds good, You guys can come over, What do you think sis?" Guy turned around to get confirmation from his sister but there was no reply, he turned around to realise that his sister was no longer on the room.
Kelly had stood up slowly while Guy was modeling his new suit and Maz was taking photos. She didn't make a sound and slowly walked away. She didn't even saw Jackie or Janna, she just wanted to leave that room as soon as possible.
She kept walking all the way downstairs and out the door, she stopped for a second to see herself on the mirror. She didn't liked what she saw, everything was fine with her appearance she looked as she always looked before, but something was bothering her deeply and she just couldn't name it.
A mirror reflects many things. And in Kelly's chase it showed her something she wanted to hide away from everyone and herself. A deep sensation of envy that had started one year and six months ago.
Kelly wished to be Shezow. She wished badly.
She had learned to live with it, She knew her brother couldn't just transfer the powers to her. Now knowing that not only the powers were transfered but were shared with someone else who wasn't her. There was a way for her to be SheZow and Guy had wasted it away.
Her mind racing with these intrusive toughs, she then left the house without making any noise.
