Shattered Bone

At East Briar High, six teenagers are just trying to survive their own lives - grief, pressure, loneliness, expectations, and secrets they don't dare say out loud.
Lyra, the quiet girl with too many feelings and a voice she's afraid to use.
Blu, the exhausted guitarist carrying more weight than any seventeen‑year‑old should.
Jade, the sharp‑tongued bassist who loves harder than she admits.
Uche, the drummer who hides his fear behind jokes and volume.
Austin, the producer who sees music the way other people see color.
Ski, the keyboardist who's spent years trying to disappear.
They're strangers - orbiting the same school, the same hallways, the same pain - until the day everything falls apart.
When the school's official band quits hours before the pep rally, the six of them are thrown together in a desperate attempt to save the event. What starts as a chaotic, accidental performance becomes something none of them expected:
A spark.
A sound.
A beginning.
Unofficially, that's the moment the band forms.
Officially?
It happens when Lyra convinces them to enter Battle of the Bands, where the grand prize is $100,000 and a record deal - the kind of money that could change all their lives.
The kind of chance you don't walk away from.
But forming a band is the easy part.
Staying one?
That's where everything gets messy.
Between rising tensions, old wounds, new crushes, clashing personalities, and the pressure of the competition, the six of them are forced to face the parts of themselves they've spent years avoiding.
They start as strangers.
They become something like friends.
And by the end - through the music, the chaos, the heartbreak, and the healing - they might just become a family.
If they don't fall apart first.
