This story will be in three parts: 3 sections with 3 chapters each representing a different point in the 'protagonist's' life. The first one is about revenge, the second about fulfilment and the last one is about living life like the way that it should be lived.
Said 'protagonist' (although the character is more of an anti-hero if anything) is called Jeremy Brookes, and the plot of the story means that the story essentially starts when he is 17 years old, although all characters depicted are above 18 years of age during any scenes of sexual intercourse.
Jeremy is your typical high-schooler/sixth former, with a dark secret. He is a sociopath, but not a particularly violent or murderous one. He is one created by bad luck, i.e. events happening that weren't necessary caused by bad intentions by others, they just ended up having a really dark effect on him. Most people who have these 'skeletons in their closet' chose to do nothing about it, partly because they do not know what they can do about it. Jeremy was the same. Till he found a way.
The events depicted in this story are very much realistic and feasible in this world, despite what others might say. The realistic part of it makes it very sobering and there are individuals like Jeremy who do this. Why don't you know about them? Well my theory is that it takes someone of a certain level of intelligence to figure out and effectively perform something like this, and those of this level of intelligence are smart enough to know that operating in the shadows (i.e. never getting caught) is the key to victory.
The characters depicted have had their names altered, for the sake of their own protection. If said person sees this, I dare you to sue me if you find your new name ironic.
Synopsis: "One should be careful when you push someone into a corner. Because you'll never know what sort of deal that person will make with the devil, just to start pushing back. Once you realise this, it's all already too late."
Part I: Mea fabula
Chapter I: Ille in vindicate
My troubles in school when I was 17 years old could all be traced down to one incident. Hindsight told me I could look at it as a huge misunderstanding that was blown way out of proportion, but I didn't really care at the time.
Ok so there was a girl I liked whom I knew. I wouldn't say we were close friends but we knew each other alright. I liked her because we shared common interests, intellectually she was my equal and most of all, she was stunning. People like that tend to stay at the top of the food chain, not with people like me. I'd associate myself as a loner, not because I was socially awkward, it was for the fact that at the institution I went to, I struggled to find people who I actually liked and wanted to be around. Naturally, I got bored and choose to do what interested me the most; reading, tasting fine wines and whiskeys amongst other nefarious activities.
Long story short, her friends being the 'Queens of observation' realised that I liked her. Said Queens being teenage girls and most importantly, me not being in their social circle, took this the wrong way. Cue a series of texts, calls and suggestive messages implying that my feelings were reciprocated. I knew it was all fake, and well it hurt because I knew that. So when it eventually came, I probably could have laughed it off and drank my sorrows away. I didn't.
Maybe I was in a vindictive mood or just fed up with their antics, but I flipped. I'll cut to the part that actually matters in that I had a massive shouting match with her friend and it led to me becoming some sort of pariah for the rest of the year. Can't say I was really that sorry to be honest. I really did recommend her to go fuck herself with a cactus.
The friend in question, for all purposes will be known as Anna. Why Anna you ask? Well its really because I felt like it.
Anna is one of those girls in this world who is simply beautiful, and she damn well knows and uses it to her advantage at every given moment. She was of average height with long dark hair and a pale complexion. Her body was that of a dancers; long, powerful legs, slender figure with a decently sized bust. We were never close, mind you, but we knew each other well enough. When I say "well enough," its more of the case if we see each other in the street we know to avoid each other. Like oil and water we simply don't mix.
So the story really started upon my reaction to that incident in my penultimate year of schooling. I felt a lot of pain, and emotionally was a wreck from what happened. I decided that I wanted revenge. Revenge they say is a dish best served cold, and well I have no problems with dishing it out. My only problem is getting caught, and possible consequences that might impact me if it happened. It looks pretty bad if you think about it, guy who 'can't take no for an answer' acts spitefully towards girl. To be honest, it's not that I can't take no for an answer, it's more of the fact that I was led on, deliberately and used as a joke for the amusement of the 'populars.' In any case, it was a really 'cuntish' move, and well a part of me decided that I wasn't taking anything like this again.
For a while, I began to scour the internet and the world around me for inspiration. One day it came to me when I was watching a movie. Incidentally it was the American movie "Now you see me." Now the thing about this particular movie was that there was a character who specialised in mentalism and hypnotism. So I was watching this scene, the character makes physical contact with another via an arm pull for an hypnotic induction before issuing commands to the character involved. He then goes on to prove that the woman is really 'hypnotised' and thus removes her ability to move and speak. Whilst this seems fake and unrealistic, having done a bit of research I have concluded that what he did was very much real.
