I remember one day, my dad was packing his bags for something. I asked him why he was, and he said that he was leaving for a few days to a battle field for a discriminations war. For some reason humans thought they were better than every other race. But they specifically picked on Nekonesi, just be cause we had cat ears, tail, and fangs. Sure, we weren't the only race to be discriminated against by humans, but they hated us the most because our kingdom of race was building higher then theirs. They declared a Race War even though the war was about discrimination. It became so bad, that the other races where trying to fit in with humans and make fun of Nekonesi to try and blend in with the crowd. My dad was called to war. I asked him if I could fight on the battle grounds with him. I was 14 and old enough to go to war. But he said I wasn't cut out for it. I asked him everyday and even started working out and try to gain some muscle form the weak skinny arms I had. And then, I snapped... I asked one more time... and he said, "NO!" I cowered in fear, I never heard Dad this angry at me before. He saw my fear in my eyes and said, "See. You cowered in fear when you see danger." My eyes started to water. He said, "You will never be cut out for this... and... I can't afford to let you die." Then, I snapped in anger. "Ya? Well I wouldn't mind if you died on the battle field!" My father's eyes widened. I realized what I said and covered my mouth while taking a step back. After a minute of silence, he scoffed and said "Be careful for what you wish for Onyx, because... it might come true. Unless you where serious..." I tried saying that I didn't mean it but he walked away to fast before I could say anything. I watched him get picked up by a military bus and get driven away to the battle field. I could see the look of guilt on his face. Then it hit me. He knew he might not come back. "I should of said something." I thought to my self. And when he was supposed to come home... he didn't. They found his body with his legs cut off and a bloody note he was wrote right before he died. I wanted to read it after the memorial for him was over. When we got home from the memorial, I went to my room and read the note. It said... wait... I stood in shock... it said,

"I told you Onyx. I'll repeat it again. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR. BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR."
