A Revenge Story that I went through will be when I had a sleep over with my cousin's and my friends. My older cousin put his gym socks in my mouth I woke up angry because I had a sour tase in my mouth which was very awful and disgunsting. so what I did to him was a DOULBLE WAMY I waited until he fell asleep so that me and my friend and cousines put tooth past on his face,moth,and mouth he woke screaming LOL, the last thing i did was pour a Lascsitive in his soda so that all day and night he would have the runs. That is my revenge story and I thought him not to mess with me because I got him back twice in a row.
Revenge is always around us, everywhere we look revenge is happening. We sometimes realize when revenge is happening but other times we don’t. I have a great incident where I had to use revenge. In my hockey game there was a kid being very cheap to my whole team. Me being the captain I had to do something about it. In the intermission of 2-3 periods my team and I were talking about how we could get revenge on this kid. So we had decided on the plan and my coach agreed because he saw the abuse we were taking on the rink.
We got on the rink and I could see the kid laughing at our team. I was furious and wanted to do something about this. When we had the ball in the offensive zone, it was me and him in the corner fight for the ball. He got the shot on net and my goalie covered it. We were at the faceoff and the kid was once again talking so I lined up next to him. When the ref dropped the ball for the faceoff I slid the end of my stick through my hands and caught him in the solar plexus. He was on the ground grasping for air and no one had knew what happened. But my teammates and I all knew that it was worth it. I didn’t hit him hard enough to hurt him but just enough to teach him a lesson.
The moral of this story is that revenge can come in every way. Mine being that I hit him, but I also could have talked trash back. Doing that, would have showed that I was down on his level and my coach would not have liked that. I will fight for all my players no matter what the circumstance is. I wasn’t given a `C’ for no reason. I was given a `C’ because I am a leader.

At the end he sniched on me once more he told my mom i was trying to do something but my mom dint belive him she cheked evry thing i did to make sure it was niot true but to make this story shorter he got in trouble for lieing i got 50 dollars for doing all those chores and i spend it at the movies with my friedn. So at the end revenge was sweet.

MADE UP!!!...On a rainy and gloomy day my cousin was sleep like a K.O. from a boxer. I walked down the stairs to grab a cold can of sugar-free whipped cream. I tucked the can in my pocket so I wouldn't look suspicious. Crackling sounds came from the wood steps.
My cousin got up to go to the bathroom. I splurged into the room and splashed the dairy underneath his blue pillow case. When he arrived, I was pretending to be sleep. He sat down on his bed and i started to smile under my covers:). Then he laid his head smooth on the pillow.
After that the room was silent. He got up and walked slowly to the bathroom. I heard water running for about 2 minutes. But i didn't know what was going on. Then he walked back into the room and stood in one spot....SPLASH
Once upon a time when I was younger I was a very mean & aggressive little girl I never liked things being taken from me, being told NO! & or stingy people. It was a cool breezy afternoon in ma play room I was about 3 or 4 on this day I was playing with my toys with ma younger brother & little cousin that was 3 if I was 4. She was the biggest cry baby & even meaner then I was. So as the day goes on I believe I allowed her to get away with a lot of things in our younger days didn’t really understand what it meant to defend myself. She was family so I thought I’d be wrong.
So as the day goes by the room is filled with nothing but silence little brother playing with his blocks in one corner sucking one thumb in the corner. My little cousin brutally playing with the baby dolls & me the same until she noticed I had the baby doll she wanted. She felt as though she could just come & take things whenever she wanted seeing as though she was the biggest cry babies of them all getting what she wanted came easily. But me I hated it.
I see this little short person walking up to me in a fierce way I didn’t say anything I just let her go for the doll. As she fights for it I as well start getting a little more aggressive by the minute. So I took matters into my own hands mind you I am 4 she is 3 I just mean mug her as hard as I can next thing you know I’m on top punching her in the face. So as my mother comes upstairs to get us for lunch time she witnesses me getting paybacks for her trying to steal my doll. So my mom freaks out & starts pealing me off as hard as she tried she couldn’t do much. I TOLD YOU I DIDN’T LIKE THINGS BEING TAKEN FROM ME :)
once i got revenge on my brother because he told on me..one day i was on ppunishment but i had somewere to be so when my mom left to got to work i sneaked out the house with out anybody noticein, later that day my brother was looking for me but i was knowere to be found so he texted me "were you at" i said "im coming home now dont tell mom" so when i got home my mom still wasn't home so i ran up stairs and locked my self in the room. 30minutes goes bye and i hear the door open'it was my mom right when she came in the door (to be contiued)
The day i had my revenge was years ago because i was really fast When i was little and i was always runnin into a speed compitition to see who was the fastest runner. to tell the truth i used to always win the race but till another person came up to me and said he want to race me, but i did not feel like it because a was all out of breath but i manage to do it till i was in shocked that i lost the race, i used to had really bad athesma i also used to take the athesma machine to calm down and breath. Till then i waorked my way up to becoming fast again as years past by. Ive seen my opponent and asked him i wanna race him again he said fine but you going to lose like last time. i said i did not really care because i was weak at the past but now as im growing up i gotten stronger and grown with more velocity in me. And so we started the race and it was real difficult because i kept switching 1st & 2nd place it was ust the two of us racing. But i had that race and the person i raced was making all excuses because he lost the race. And that was the time i started my revenge and completed it.
But right now i meet a lot of people claiming they all faster than me but i feel it can be true or they just want to challenge me.
A time when I sought revenge was when my brother and I we’re playing madden 2007 or around about that year. At first I was winning and showing off because I thought I was going to win. But me overconfident in myself effected the way I played throughout the rest of the game. It was 30 seconds left on the clock. The score was Philadelphia Eagles: 36 Pittsburg Steelers: 30 A touchdown and a extra point conversion will give me the lead by one and it’ll be over. 3rd and 15 at eagles 45 the ball is snapped. It’s a play action to Hines Ward but behind of Hines Ward Lito Sheppard with the interception. The ball went right through the hands of Hines Ward. Right before the touchdown by Lito I smacked my brother with the controller across the side of his head. Let’s just say from that point on I learned how to lose and accepted the fact that not on every scenario can you come out victorious.
one hot summer day i was going to the mall with my mom and i was going to be alone or wait on a few of my friends to get there when suddenly i look up from my phone and see my boyfriend with his friends and there talking to sum girls. He didnt realize i seen him with the girls/girl so i acted like nothing happened. Until he looked over and saw me he tryed to tell me he wasnt doing anything with the girl but i didnt trust him.
so the same night this happened my friends came and i told them what i'd seen they told me to get back at him for doing that. my friends were all boys and i was the only girl. We all decided to go to the movies that night and we bummped into him and his little friends when he looked at me he seemed mad but i didnt care becaouse now he Knew how i felt when isaw him with the random girls i didnt know.
Few hours later when i get home from the movies my phone was dead and when i turned it on i had a ton of messages from my boyfriend saying how i embarressed him in front of his friends. he also told me how he got mad. i never told him why i did what i did that night but i got back on him with some good revenge :)
One hot summer day me and my friend kenny were at the pool. Just relaxing. Kenny said marlie go check the water,if it is cold. i said ok. So I walked over and put my hand in the water. All sudden i hear running coming my way. (splash)Kenny pushed me right in the pool. He did his little evil laugh. So I said I will have my revenge.
So the next day he came over to swim. I said hey Kenny can you get my float out the water. He said ok. So when he was at the egde, I ran and tackled him (splash). He went right in. I had my own *evil laugh*. So thats how I got my revenge.
