I have never had a real friend. The only person I thought of as a friend was my sister, Moray. On my YouTube channel, Race Your Heart, I always answer questions about my life, but I keep them vague enough so they don't seem suspicious. Of course, I never get questions about family since Moray died. I know if my parents knew I wanted more than just racing, they would punish me for it. I can't do that to her. I have to keep this up until I am eighteen years old, when I can do what I want. I never said anything about this to anyone before, but when I go to sleep, I get these images of the past that I barely remember. one from before Nitro was built.

Nitro is my robotic animal. In the images, I see me and Moray with the speeding hornet. The speeding hornet is, or was, the queen of racing. She had an owl roboticle. Her owl could transform into a motorcycle like Nitro!  Remember, in one of my races, I actually did one of her stunts?

As I was flying through the air, I saw Moray get hit from behind by that stupid Angie. She flipped over, tumbling sideways. She hit the ground, bleeding.

"MORAY!"I landed and jumped right off Nitro before running to my sister. I was crying at her side, praying she would be alright. The next day after she was taken into the ICU, I got a call from the hospital saying she didn't make it. I hung up the phone, heartbroken. I fell asleep on Nitro tonight instead of in bed. I had another dream about the speeding hornet. She used her special abilities to blast midnight purple mist at a target, blasting it across a yard! I have the same abilities, only it's red mist instead of purple. This ability can only be taught to do or be born with. For me, I was born with it. My parents told me to never use these abilities. why? I don't know. i started wondering, 'can i really get a friend?' after looking at social media and seeing so many people just smiling with real friends.

My marks appeared after I won my first race. They glowed red. My parents were disgraced by them. My parents want me to be them. I opened my eyes to see a fence around me.
