Two races, long at war. Finally have enough and stop.
They were all the same. Each side striving for the survival of their species. The War had been going on for more years than either could care to remember. All they knew is if they lost, their species would no longer exist.

In the air and on the ground the Battle raged. Weapons of mass destruction doing terrible things to bodies. Pieces of the bodies and fluid covered the ground. Neither side had a way
to deal with such death on this scale. So, the bodies lay where they had fallen.

Two face off and circle one another. Shouting words of hatred, though neither knew why. Each, sick of war dropped their weapons and sat down to talk. They found out both had many things in common and they thought much the same way.

Around them, other's noticed and soon joined them. Peace was declared by both sides. The first two to stop the fighting were declared hero's and were long remembered after they had passed away.
