The band of friends that is now five was once a group of
six, but these friends are closer than most and once you break a vow you are no
longer wanted in the inner circle. The group was once comprised of Brooke, Mia,
Rowdi, Steven, Josh, and Anthony. It was only just a few months ago that all
six friends were seen walking around together having the best time in each other
company, until Anthony broke the vow to never release any information that was
talked about within the friend’s circle. This group of friends has one thing in
common and that is they all work together at the same place; however, Anthony
was transferred to another store due to conflicts with his leader. Once transferred
Anthony envied the other friends because they were able to stay together and
were having fun at the store he was no longer at and he didn’t like that at
all. So, even with the vow to never tell anyone outside the circle of
friendship, Anthony began to tell people at his new store about things that he
and the other friends use to do at his old store.
With Anthony spreading rumors about stuff he and the friends
use to do it made its way back to his old leader through the back channels and
the team started to get in trouble. The friends found out about what Anthony
had done and they banned him from the circle of friends. Once Anthony found about
the friends agreeing to ban him from being within their circle, he ran back to
them wanting to be accepted back into the group. However, this group of friends
don’t take the breaking of vows they have made lightly and told him that they
won’t be able to accept him back into the group.
Upon kicking Anthony out of the group, a great leader that the
friends always looked up to came upon the friends during this time and took
them under his wing. This leader was known as Bruce the Almighty (at least this
what he thought he was), Bruce took the friends one by one and taught them
different things on how to navigate the drama that was lingering over them. Through the guidance of Mr. Almighty himself
the friends were able to make their circle between the five of them even stronger
and not let the drama that Anthony has bestowed upon the group take them down. With
everything that the friends have overcame they are now an inseparable group
that hasn’t let anything come between them.
Authors Note: For this story I tried my best to find a way
to incorporate the group of friends I have used in a couple of my blog posts
again for this week. So, for this short story I took a couple of the videos
from the Karmic Revolution video series and relate to the friends to the best I
can. The first video that I used was about Ambas Ruin and how once
she was kidnapped and wasn’t able to return to either kingdoms that she went
to. Ambas Ruin and Anthony getting kicked out of the friends circle is were I
tried to relate that section of the story to the reading we did. Then for the
second story that I used was Sons of Vyasa and this is were Bruce the Almighty comes into the story of when he takes the friends under him and teaches them different things. This is not really completed and will have more context added into at a later date.

Hi Tyler! I also watched Karmic Revolution for this week. I liked seeing how you were able to combine the stories into one cohesive piece. I also found your interpretation of Amba’s Ruin to be very fun! I thought that it was a unique take on everything. I would never have thought to interpret them in this way. This was enjoyable to read!
ReplyDeleteHey Tyler, I did not watch the Karmic Revolution videos during this week but I really enjoyed reading through your story! I liked how you are making your own series in this class and using the same group of friends for your stories. That is a really cool concept you are doing! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteHi Tyler!
ReplyDeleteI like that this story combines different stories together. I was a bit confused at first with the vague details, but read your author’s note that you plan on adding more detail later, so I reread it just for plot elements, and is definitely going to be an exciting story when you add details! My first thought was that these friends committed a murder or some crime that they were keeping a secret, then I thought maybe they were spies or something. You could add some depth to Anthony’s character by adding an element that enticed Anthony to share the secrets, like if he wanted to fit in with his new group or if he was being threatened. A grammatical error I noticed is that it should be “However, this group of friend doesn’t take the breaking of vows…”. When Bruce Almighty enters, what is he training them for? Is he like a therapist or is he training them for combat? Are they going to battle Anthony and his new friends? Looking forward to seeing where you take this story!
