=The Sacrifice=

He fell off the cliff like an overripe watermelon run over by a truck. You could tell it was Shigeno for sure by his funny face and voice. He was riding his favorite red bike, but there were no brakes on the bike. Therefore, he couldn't stop the bike and he fell off the cliff.

It was his fifth time riding the same bike falling off the same cliff. Nothing happened to him every other time he fell, but this time he broke his left leg and right arm. The doctor told him not to ride his bike to the cliff again.

It took him only two weeks to walk and move his arm properly. How amazing! For normal people, it probably will take more than a month to heal. The doctor was shocked at Shigeno's bone structure. He had never seen these kinds of bones before. Shigeno's bones were much stronger than normal humans’. The doctor predicted Shigeno's bones would be stronger as he got older. In addition, his bones healed faster than normal people's bones when they broke.

The doctor told Shigeno to keep the secret. Shigeno was shocked at himself for being an unusual person. He didn't believe the doctor, so he tried once more falling off the cliff. This time he fell off the cliff and the bike broke. However, he didn't feel any pain at all. He started to bleed because he fell on a rock, but his bones were perfect. He tried to break his bones and nothing happened. Then he went to the hospital to see the doctor again. The doctor told him not to worry about his bones and to still keep the secret. The doctor didn't want anyone in the world to know that Shigeno had bones that are not what humans are supposed to have.

As Shigeno grew older, his bones became much stronger than before. However, the stronger his bones were, the heavier they became. He couldn't swim anymore because his bones were too heavy.

One day, his friends invited him to the swimming pool for a party. When he arrived, he saw a group of people he never seen before. Shigeno's friend introduced the new people. Suddenly, a three-year old kid fell into the deep part of the pool. Shigeno immediately dove in the pool for the young kid; he forgot about his heavy bones.

By the time he held on to the kid, he started to sink down to the bottom of the pool. He quickly pushed the kid up to the edge of the pool. The other people helped the kid, and they saw Shigeno still at the bottom of the pool. They didn't know that Shigeno was a special person, and they waited for Shigeno to swim back up.

After one minute, Shigeno still did not come up, so one of his friends dove in the pool and tried to rescue him. They called the ambulance, but it was too late. By the time the ambulance arrived, he stopped breathing.
