Week 13 Story: Krishnas Destiny

Krishna's Destiny    

 The life of a young demi god names Krish came into the world thru the help of the mighty gods. His destiny had been written even before his birth. He was born to be the protector of Earth and its inhabitants. Not only was this a hard task to fulfill but he was thrown through multiple tests in his life. He had many enemies as they could not stand the idea of Krish and his heroity. His true identity was hidden from him by his parents, Lakshmi and Nav, who were really protectors of Krish. As far as Krish knew, he was just an ordinary boy with a unique gift. He was unaware of the fact that he was a demigod. Krishs' biggest threat was a cruel ruler named Karma. Karma was a ruler that had his eyes set on ruling over all mankind. Krish being the protector of earth took it upon himself to stop Karma. Not only was Karma a mighty ruler, but an excellent strategic fighter in combat. Karma knew one day, he would run into Krish, so he waited patiently for his prey. 

    Outside of this busy life, Krish just wants to have a normal life with his friends from home. One day as his parents took him to visit his village back home, he runs into his old childhood friends. They take off in adventure to the forest to fish, as it was their favorite childhood activity. They go fishing in the forbidden river, as it is known to have dangerous marine life living among it. The kids living there their whole life, knows the areas that are safe to fish in. As Krish waits patiently for a bite to catch, one of his friends is on his toes trying to reel in a big one. Krish takes off to help his friend reel the fish in, only to find out that he had hooked a dangerous sea snake the size of a skyscraper. It was at this moment that Krish discovered his dwelling strength and bravery. As this monster dragged Krish's friend into the river, Krish takes a deep dive into the river. Krish and his friends drew in a crowd by the bank of the river. Krish swims with such power and force, he appears like a dolphin in the water. Krish was able to grab the tail of the serpent and drag him out of the water. The crowd was shocked to find out that such a young man could have this much strength to drag a dangerous sea serpent out of the water and beat it to death in order to save his childhood friend. 

    The new discovery of his strength and speed gave Krish a push over his confidence. He ran into a phase, where he would show off his gift and ability to impress people. He was able to make friends easy as well as enemies. His parents worried for his destiny even more so as Krish has taken a liking to his abilities. His parents feared for this day as it was their duty to tell Krish of his destiny and life purpose. Lakshmi calls upon Krish with tears running down her cheek. Lakshmi and Nav explains to Krish that he is not their true son by blood and how his life purpose was to be a hero and savior of this planet. This however did not surprise Krish, as he has always seen strange signs throughout his life. He sits through a long lecture from his parents. Krish now understands his life purpose and his duty. 


Authors Notes: I used the reading notes from week 12 and used the story about Krishna. There is a lot to the whole story, but this was only a small part of the main story. I plan on adding more to this story as the weeks pass. Krishna the original character shown in the image above is referred to as Krish in this story. I chose to incorporate an action scene from the original story and add some minor changes. My main goal was to show the calling of Krishna and set up a good cliffhanger where you would have to wait and find out where Krish takes upon the mighty ruler Karma. 

Image Info: This picture above shows Krishna after he picked up a the flute and started playing it. The flute has been a resemblance of Krishna and his existence.

  1. Hey PB, great story! You are such a great descriptive writer.The details and the way you set the tone for this story really keep the reader engaged. I did notice something very minor and it happens to me all the time. I noticed in the beginning of your story where it says, " Krish came into the world thru the help of the mighty gods" through was written thru. It is really no big deal I tend to do this so much in my stories. I really enjoyed your rendition of what you chose for your reading for week 12! Great job and keep it up!

  2. Hey PB! What a great, short and sweet story! Like Emily said, this is such a great descriptive story. I really like your final paragraph, as well as the image you have used for the story. Like I said, your language is incredibly descriptive but I wish you had a bit more dialogue. Overall, great work!

  3. Hey PB!
    I love the story of Krishna. He is such a fun character to write about. There are so many interesting tales about his life. I think your modern take on the myth is super fun and I would love to read more stories about the adventures of Krish. I found this retelling so creative and entertaining. Good job!
