How did you try to murder the school bully?! That sounds like a crazy part of the story.
TLDR : I strangled a guy with a telephone cable.
It happened during a school trip to Europe, I was ~13, skinny AF, small frame but fit relative to my body. There was snow there, which was something we didn't have were I came from, so everyone would throw snowballs an play when we got the opportunity. There was this fucker called Rodrigo, tall, good frame, chad genetics for sure... who liked to bully smaller kids like me and my friends, this was the kind of guy who felt invincible and superior. I'd have to admit I hated the guy's attitude.
So, because I was skinny AF and never had been to a place with a really cold climate I got sick, high fever, we were just sightseeing walking through a park, as I was minding my own business, this fucker decides that throwing a snowball to my face would be fun, he got a good hit, I'll give him that, so he and other 2 guys start laughing.
And I fucking lost it... I had experienced bloodlust before, but I had never really given into it, I could feel all the rage flowing through me, all the adrenaline building up, yet I remained calm, walked to one of the benches in the park near a corner, took off my backpack.
Out of sheer coincidence I happened to have telephone cable on it, that backpack is where I'd keep my supplies for electronics projects and when emptying it for the trip I must have missed the cable in one of the compartments, by the time I had noticed I was already on the trip.
So I take the cable out, put the backpack back on, put my gloves back on and start wrapping it around one hand and then the other. I stood up and started walking towards the guy, it was a very eerie feeling, because I could feel all the rage in me but I wasn't trembling or stiff like one would normally be, my body was performing nominally. So I reach the guy from behind jumped on top of him and started strangling him in a swift motion, I swear I could see everything unfold in slow motion, the fucker went instantly into panic mode and started trying to grab the cable, and I just pushed harder with my legs against the back of his neck, I remember he was trying to move side to side, but it only caused the cable to bite more into his skin, fucker falls to his knees, gagging, and I commanded every bit of strength I had into one last push with my legs to finish the fucker. The cable snapped in 2.
So I fell to the ground, 2 other guys heard him scream for help and came to pin me down, I was docile, no reason to fight an unwinnable battle. Fucker gets on top of me and tries to intimidate me by closing a fist and saying something, which he couldn't because his neck was pretty messed up. I had this blank stare in me, didn't react one bit to his intimidation because he was bluffing and I wasn't. I looked at the laceration in his neck and he pulled back, pulling his neck into his jacket like a fucking tortoise JFL, I have never felt in more control. The other guys didn't really know or understand what had happened. But that fucker understood, so he pulled back and we just stood up and went walking back to the rest of the group.
After that I got incredibly lucky, one of the teachers found out there had been a "fight" between 2 of the students and interrogated everyone, he lied be saying that "he already knew everything, but wanted to hear everyone's version" which is how he got more info from the 2 guys that pinned me down. Fortunately for me, that fucker Rodrigo had a reputation to uphold and made damn sure to keep that laceration hidden with a scarf, he remained quiet and said nothing. I'm not exactly sure just how much the teacher found out, but it was clear that nobody saw me as a cold blooded murderer.
Then after we got back from the trip I was sent to the school psychologist, I kid you not, first thing he says was something along the lines: "I know he probably deserved it, but it is not your place to do such things" and because he had to keep confidentiality I told him what actually had happened and he got me institutionalized.
