Revenge - Sweet Revenge
During our last game, we played treasure hunt where Andrew, Robert and I played the pirates who guarded the treasure, while Frank, Donald, David and Jerry played the treasure hunters. We played at a playground - a plateau - in the mountains and we were able to win by capturing all the treasure hunters.
Frank and I slept at about eleven o'clock. Tomorrow, Wednesday, would be an exciting day. Doug's adventures also reminded me of my vacation, for there is also an island on the lake, with a wooded shed, like the one on the mountain and farm. We will explore the lake with Dad and Uncle Richard the next morning probably at nine or ten tomorrow morning. So we eagerly slept.
I was dreaming about some TV show I watched, when I was partially awakened by someone trying to pull my arms. I was too sleepy so I just brushed it aside. I turned around and slept on my belly so that my back to be facing the ceiling. It was already bright, I think it was six in the morning, I didn't really care - all I wanted is to go back to sleep. I just turned my position so that whoever was bothering me would stop what he or she was doing. I buried my head between two pillows and fell fast asleep.
Big mistake! I was soon fast asleep, when suddenly somebody pulled my feet and forced me to wake. I tried to turn to see who it is, but when I tried using my arms to assist me, I found out I can't move it. It was stuck behind my back. I struggled, but I can't seem to separate them from behind my back. I was still too drowsy to grasp what actually happened. I tried flexing my feet, but I can't. Soon, I was wide awake, and I realized that my hands were tied behind me at the wrists, and my ankles were crossed and tied with torn cloth. I had difficulty trying to turn around, but fortunately, whoever tied me up while I was asleep helped me turn around so that I am lying on my back (and on my bound wrists.).
Then I saw who did this. Not surprisingly, it was Andrew and David. I turned to my side and Barney was still fast asleep in the foldout bed. Frank sleeps above me in the double bed so I don't know what he's situation, my guess is that he is still asleep. I looked at the clock, and it is fifteen minutes before seven. This is the second time I was tied up while sleeping.
"Okay guys mmmppphhhh!" David popped a wadded handkerchief into my mouth, then Andrew duct taped my mouth to prevent me from spitting it out.
"Sorry Tom!" David whispered. "We wouldn't want you to disturb Frank, would we?"
With that, they went up the upper bed where Frank was sleeping, and woke him up. As for my part, was still sleepy and fell asleep again, this time bound and gagged. I was sleeping for a few minutes when I was woken by the two, who then flipped me again so I lay on my stomach, took a piece of rope, tied one end of it to my wrists, and tied the other end to my ankles, hog-tying me. I looked at the clock and it was 15 minutes past seven. I realized I had fallen asleep for a full half-hour. I looked around the room. Barney was still soundly asleep in the foldout bed, while Frank was standing beside one of the bedposts, tied to it. His hands were around the post and tied behind it. There was more rope lashing him to the post. He was gagged with duct tape like me, and I presumed, based on previous experience, that his mouth was also stuffed.
"Thanks Tom for turning when you did!" David sarcastically said. "You saved us from the trouble of trying to flip you over to your stomach to tie you up and wake you up in the process. Because of that, pulling your arms behind you is a snap! You didn't even feel it!"
It was at this point that Barney woke up. David's voice was too loud. I wonder what his reaction would be when he wakes up and sees his brother and his friend - his two roommates, were tied up by his other brother and one of his friends? He rose from the foldout bed, hair extremely dishevelled, like Frank's and mine, and stretched. He saw us, and to our amazement gave absolutely no thought of it.
"Could you guys keep it down. I still want to sleep. And could you gag them real tight? I want their groans to have as little noise as possible when you tickle them. And keep it down for crying out loud!" my little brother protested.
Andrew and David just nodded, and secured Barney's promise not to untie us in return. So Barney went back to sleep, while Andrew and David stuffed another wadded handkerchief into my mouth, filling my mouth completely, then wrapped duct tape around my head several times, to carry out their part of the bargain. They did the same to Frank.
Andrew and David then left us alone. They left probably to get Donald and Angela. I decided test the ropes. I struggled a bit to gain some slack. I found none. I tried finding any knots with my fingers, but it was in vain. They had tied the knots beyond the reach of my fingers. So I was basically stuck. I then tested the gag by shouting at the top of my lungs. The gag was so tight and effective that I barely made a sound. And it didn't bother Barney at all, who was back in his bed soundly sleeping. I heard a faint sound from Frank, and I guess his gag was as effective as mine. Frank was still struggling.
Twenty minutes later, Andrew and David arrived with Donald. Donald has his hands tied behind him, and his mouth was gagged with a scarf tied around his mouth, covering his head from nose to chin. They walked Donald to the other bedpost, untied his hands, pulled his arms around the post, and tied his crossed wrists behind it palm to palm. The ropes were snug, inescapable and the knots unreachable. They then secured him further to the post by wrapping rope around his upper body and the back of the post, the same as Frank was tied to the other post. Then they left us again. Donald struggled for a while, but soon gave up, recognizing the futility of such struggles. Based on the faint mmmpphhhsss I heard from him, he was as tightly gagged as I was.
After about fifteen minutes later, they came back with Angela bound and gagged. It's déjà vu all over again! They walked her to a chair, untied her hands, sat her on the chair, pulled her arms behind the armrests, and then retied her crossed wrists behind the chair. They further secured her to the chair by tightly wrapping rope around my sister's upper body and the backrests, from her chest down to her waist. When they were finished with her, she could barely move her upper body. She was, like Donald, gagged with a scarf with her mouth stuffed with something. David then crossed her ankles and tied it using a strip of torn cloth. Andrew took a long piece of rope, tied it to her bound ankles, and tied the other end to the backrest, so when he was finished, her feet is no longer touching the floor. They then drew back to admire their handiwork.
"Shall we call Robert and Jerry?" David asked my brother.
"Yea. Let's call them so we can tickle them together. After all, they are our teammates!" my brother replied.
"How 'bout them?" David asked.
"What about them?" Andrew replied.
"Shouldn't we guard them?" David expressed his concern.
"Nah! They're not going anywhere!" Andrew laughed. David seemed to agree and both of them left.
Now their overconfidence was their undoing. Sure, they were able to capture all four of us even with the only two of them, without Robert and Jerry. But they haven't won the game yet. For as soon as both of them disappeared, who should enter than my eight-year-old little sister Betty? She quietly sneaked in and since I was nearest the door, she went over me. Barney was still fast asleep, and Betty made sure he remained that way. She then looked around and saw all four of us. She stood there for a while, and tickled my sides slightly, which made me violent jerk. She giggled.
"Tom, I'm going to untie you. But if I do, you and all the others owe me one, agree?" Betty said to me after tickling me and giggling quietly.
Oh she's a smart girl! What could I do but nod my head in agreement? Like do I have any other choice? "Remember you owe me one! I can ask any favors from you in the future!"she whispered to me, then went to all the others whispering the same thing. Based on their head movements (they all nodded), she seemed to get what she wanted. She then went back to me.
"Gotta go now! I don't want to be caught you know." She said, then quietly walked to the door. I mmmpppphhh violently. She then walked back.
"Oh, I nearly forgot!" She then untied me from my hog-tie and untied my wrists. "You can do the rest now. But hurry, I think I hear their footsteps coming up!" She giggled again and then swiftly darted out of the room. She reminded me of Barney, John and Ben in similar situations before. What I can't understand is why they didn't help in the recent games. I guess Andrew and David were more cautious that time. But I've got to move fast. They went down just to call their friend, not to wait out the half-hour. So I struggled mightily to remove the rest of the ropes from my body. After two minutes, I was completely free, except for my gag, which I completely forgot to remove in my haste. I immediately went to Frank, where I untied his wrists and undid the knot on the rope holding his body to the bedposts, and I let him finish the rest. I went to Donald and untied his wrists and loosened the ropes around his body. He can do the rest. Time is of the essence. Any moment now, they might return, and we've got to act fast. I then went over to Angela, and untied her wrists, and undid the knot securing her body to the chair, then darted over to help Frank and Donald. We all hurried, for they might return any minute now. After five minutes, we were all completely free, except for the gag, which we forgot. And all of this was done quietly, so quiet that Barney slept through it all. We then carefully removed our gags, for doing it rashly would hurt our skin.
And we were free not a moment too soon. For we barely removed our gags when Andrew and David returned. As soon as they entered, Angela and I pounced on my older brother while Frank and Donald tackled David. They were clearly surprised. "Barney, you promised no to - ", an angry Andrew shouted. We tackled him, and he was not able to finish what he wanted to say. But it is clear to us what he wanted to say. And all these noise from the melee finally woke Barney up.
"With friends like these, who needs enemies!" my little brother exclaimed. "I couldn't even sleep with weirdos like you running around and tying each other up. I'm getting out of here!" Barney then walked out of the room.
We temporarily stopped the melee to watch Barney. We watched him went out and then we all burst into laughter. Then we continued the fight. Andrew fought like a lion, but he could not overcome both Angela and me at the same time. Soon, he was lying on the floor with his hands behind his back held by me. Angela took some rope and I wrapped it expertly on his crossed wrists. She cinched it then knotted it off, carefully placing the knots beyond the reach of his fingers. Angela and I briefly discussed what kind of bind we'll put him, we decided to hog-tie him on the bed. Andrew was quiet this time, and accepted his fate stoically. Angela removed his shoes and socks, then directed him to lie on his belly. I then crossed his ankles, tied it with rope, took another piece of rope, tied one end of it to his ankles, and the other end to his wrists. Of course, I made sure that he couldn't reach the knots with his fingers. I then took two handkerchiefs from our drawer, wadded it and inserted it to my older brother's mouth. Angela then duct taped his mouth and wrapped it around his head several times.
Frank and Donald meanwhile tackled David to the floor. David fought them furiously, but it was useless.
"We could do this the hard way, or we could do this the easy way!" Frank told David. "Either way, there's nothing you could do about it!" That seemed to have calmed him down.
"Okay, I give!" David said.
With that, Donald tied David's arms with rope at front. He tied it snugly. Then Frank tied another long piece of rope to his arms to serve as a leash. Then they led him to the closet, where they pushed the hangered clothes to the sides. Inside the closet there is a huge iron bar where the clothes were hung. It is about six feet five from the floor, and unless you're really tall, you need a stool to hung or retrieve any clothes. So they flung the rope connected to David's wrists over the iron bar, so when they pulled the other end, David's wrists were pulled up. They then pulled, till David is nearly standing on his toes, then tied the other rope to his waist, making it tight enough so it won't slip over his head yet loose enough so he can easily breathe. Now, they tied it to his waist using a honda knot, a kind of slip knot but different, on his waist so if he pulled his arms down, the rope around his waist would be tighter. So basically, he's stuck.
"C'mon guys, this is torture!" David complained.
"You got it! And quit whining!" Donald shot back.
"But guys, I mmmppphhh!" Frank popped a wadded sock into his mouth before he could finish his whine. He then secured it by tying a long strip of cloth between his teeth and knotted it tightly at the back of his head to hold the sock in his mouth. What we did with Andrew was mild to the treatment David's receiving. He's in for it now!
"Couldn't you think of anything more original than hog-tie?" Frank teasingly asked.
"Well it works. So why fix it? As they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" I replied. "And tying him to the closet isn't that original at all!" I shot back.
"Quit arguing, you two! So what if we hog-tied him or we did this or you did that. As long as it holds those two, it's fine." Angela interjected to our little argument.
"Well, two down, and two to go!" Donald triumphantly proclaimed. "How do we get Robert and Jerry?" he asked.
It's a question all of us asked. We can't win by just getting Andrew and David. We can win before they introduced those Robert and Jerry and made them part of their team, but after they did, we must catch them too to win. So how to resolve the dilemma? Well, we made a mountain out of a molehill. I remembered that both Andrew and David said to each other that they would call Robert and Jerry to complete the game. I don't know if they made that call, or if they did, will they agree to come, given the time? I suggested them to my teammates, who at first rejoiced at the solution then became long faced when confronted by the uncertainty of it.
"Yea, how do we get those two? We can't win with only those two." I remarked.
"Damn, they're smart. They start the game by without Robert and Jerry, so if they managed to commit a snafu, we still wouldn't win!" Angela snarled.
"We could call and invite them?" Frank proposed.
"Nah! They'll be too suspicious." I replied.
"You're wrong. They're green as saplings to our games. Maybe David or Andrew or us would never be fooled, but Robert and Jerry? Come on, they only joined in yesterday! We could use a variety of techniques that probably won't work on us but they would to Robert and Jerry!" Frank asserted.
"No they won't!" I vigorously replied. "Andrew and David probably told them the bag of tricks we used before. And besides, I remembered that David and Andrew were discussing calling Robert and Jerry for the tickling part. That is why they went down!" I continued.
"If they did, then why are we still arguing? All we have to do is wait for them to arrive!" Angela said.
"But did they make the call? Or if they did, are you sure that those two agreed to come over? I don't know! Do you?" Frank replied.
Yet all this arguments are pointless, for just a few minutes later, while in a heat over useless talk, we heard footsteps on the stairs and voices coming up. We listened, and it was Robert and Jerry. We immediately became quiet, and listened. Their voices were so loud and clear we can understand what they are saying, even through the wall.
"I can't believe Andrew and David pulled it off without us!" I can hear Robert fume.
"Yea, why did he ever think of drafting us if they can do it by themselves!" Jerry said.
"Probably to show off. Anyway, let's see if we can talk things over with those two after the tickling part!" Robert replied before both of them entered the room.
We immediately pounced on them when they entered. They were completely surprised, to say the least. They expected to be greeted by Andrew and David showing off the bound and gagged us. So it was quite an experience for them to see their allies bound and gagged instead of us. They were so surprised and stunned that we quickly were able to gain advantage and they were not able to put much of a struggle. And even if they did, they are still outnumbered four to two, or two to one, so there's no chance of them prevailing against us, even if they were psychologically prepared for it. Angela and I tackled Robert, while Frank and Donald grabbed Jerry. Robert quickly surrendered and did not put much of a fight (in fact, none at all) and so did Jerry.
"W-w-w-w-hat h-h-h-happened?" a bewildered Robert asked. "I thought you were the ones supposed to be tied and they are the ones free?"
"Robert, Jerry, you have much to learn about our games. Since we caught you, you have to let us tie you, or you can back out like chickens!!" I answered.
Of course, they chose the brave (or foolish?) path, and did not back out. They are green as saplings to our games, and nothing better illustrates this than their reaction. At least Frank, Donald and the others expect this sort of things, so it was not that surprising to us. Angela and I then tied Robert's hand in front, decided to tie him in the closet the same way David was tied, but since he was too inexperienced, we decided to tie him to one of the bedposts. This was probably (although I'm not absolutely sure at that time) the first time Robert was tied-up, so we did not want to make it a traumatic experience for him. We untied his hands, led him to the bedposts so he was standing with his back leaning to the bed post, pulled his arms around the bedpost, and tied him similarly to the way Frank and Donald was tied up a while ago. It was only Jerry's second time, so Donald and Frank tied him to the other bedpost, and tied him the same way. They earlier had planned to hog-tie him, but decided that since they're too new to our games, they tied him to the posts instead.
Then we tickled them. We mercilessly tickled even Robert and Jerry, but especially Andrew and David. Angela in particular seemed to delight in torturing Andrew and David, especially since she had suffered so many defeats and tortures at their hands, in fact five or six in a row since. For her, revenge is sweet. Yes, she gained her revenge, and for her, it is indeed sweet. She finally gained what she joined us for. Andrew and David nearly laughed themselves to death, they jerked violently, and gave the usual reaction. Their faces became bright red. Angela ignored Robert and Jerry and concentrated relentlessly on the two. It was with great difficulty that Frank, Donald and I persuaded her to give the required 2-3 minute breaks we always give each other during these tickle sessions.
We ended the tickling after 30 minutes. We went out of the room to give them a chance to escape, although there isn't much chance at that. Our main worry is that any of the tikes would free Andrew and David and throw out our chances of victory. Fortunately, most of the tikes were awake, and were playing outside. They already had eaten breakfast, while the adults were downstairs, our Dads in particular preparing for the boating that will occur in about one or two hours. Mom served us breakfast, and we ate. After thirty minutes, we returned to find the four pretty much the same as when we left them. We untied them, and we again congratulated each other for a good game. This was our fifth win, and for Angela, her first. Robert and Jerry were angry, but not at us. They were angry at Andrew and David for initiating a game without consulting them first, to which Andrew apologized and promised to always include them in their plans before carrying them out. But other than that, they enjoyed it. They swore revenge, which is pretty much what we wanted to hear from the rookies.
So ends another game. It started as another win for Andrew and David in their succession of victories, but thanks to my sister Betty, it turned into a win for us. We won our first game in summer. I didn't expect another game that day.
But Angela has other plans. What is it? Read the next part and find out!

With that, Donald tied David's arms with rope at front. He tied it snugly. Then Frank tied another long piece of rope to his arms to serve as a leash. Then they led him to the closet, where they pushed the hangered clothes to the sides. Inside the closet there is a huge iron bar where the clothes were hung. It is about six feet five from the floor, and unless you're really tall, you need a stool to hung or retrieve any clothes. So they flung the rope connected to David's wrists over the iron bar, so when they pulled the other end, David's wrists were pulled up. They then pulled, till David is nearly standing on his toes, then tied the other rope to his waist, making it tight enough so it won't slip over his head yet loose enough so he can easily breathe. Now, they tied it to his waist using a honda knot, a kind of slip knot but different, on his waist so if he pulled his arms down, the rope around his waist would be tighter. So basically, he's stuck.
"C'mon guys, this is torture!" David complained.
"You got it! And quit whining!" Donald shot back.
"But guys, I mmmppphhh!" Frank popped a wadded sock into his mouth before he could finish his whine. He then secured it by tying a long strip of cloth between his teeth and knotted it tightly at the back of his head to hold the sock in his mouth. What we did with Andrew was mild to the treatment David's receiving. He's in for it now!
"Couldn't you think of anything more original than hog-tie?" Frank teasingly asked.
"Well it works. So why fix it? As they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" I replied. "And tying him to the closet isn't that original at all!" I shot back.
"Quit arguing, you two! So what if we hog-tied him or we did this or you did that. As long as it holds those two, it's fine." Angela interjected to our little argument.
"Well, two down, and two to go!" Donald triumphantly proclaimed. "How do we get Robert and Jerry?" he asked.
It's a question all of us asked. We can't win by just getting Andrew and David. We can win before they introduced those Robert and Jerry and made them part of their team, but after they did, we must catch them too to win. So how to resolve the dilemma? Well, we made a mountain out of a molehill. I remembered that both Andrew and David said to each other that they would call Robert and Jerry to complete the game. I don't know if they made that call, or if they did, will they agree to come, given the time? I suggested them to my teammates, who at first rejoiced at the solution then became long faced when confronted by the uncertainty of it.
"Yea, how do we get those two? We can't win with only those two." I remarked.
"Damn, they're smart. They start the game by without Robert and Jerry, so if they managed to commit a snafu, we still wouldn't win!" Angela snarled.
"We could call and invite them?" Frank proposed.
"Nah! They'll be too suspicious." I replied.
"You're wrong. They're green as saplings to our games. Maybe David or Andrew or us would never be fooled, but Robert and Jerry? Come on, they only joined in yesterday! We could use a variety of techniques that probably won't work on us but they would to Robert and Jerry!" Frank asserted.
"No they won't!" I vigorously replied. "Andrew and David probably told them the bag of tricks we used before. And besides, I remembered that David and Andrew were discussing calling Robert and Jerry for the tickling part. That is why they went down!" I continued.
"If they did, then why are we still arguing? All we have to do is wait for them to arrive!" Angela said.
"But did they make the call? Or if they did, are you sure that those two agreed to come over? I don't know! Do you?" Frank replied.
Yet all this arguments are pointless, for just a few minutes later, while in a heat over useless talk, we heard footsteps on the stairs and voices coming up. We listened, and it was Robert and Jerry. We immediately became quiet, and listened. Their voices were so loud and clear we can understand what they are saying, even through the wall.
"I can't believe Andrew and David pulled it off without us!" I can hear Robert fume.
"Yea, why did he ever think of drafting us if they can do it by themselves!" Jerry said.
"Probably to show off. Anyway, let's see if we can talk things over with those two after the tickling part!" Robert replied before both of them entered the room.
We immediately pounced on them when they entered. They were completely surprised, to say the least. They expected to be greeted by Andrew and David showing off the bound and gagged us. So it was quite an experience for them to see their allies bound and gagged instead of us. They were so surprised and stunned that we quickly were able to gain advantage and they were not able to put much of a struggle. And even if they did, they are still outnumbered four to two, or two to one, so there's no chance of them prevailing against us, even if they were psychologically prepared for it. Angela and I tackled Robert, while Frank and Donald grabbed Jerry. Robert quickly surrendered and did not put much of a fight (in fact, none at all) and so did Jerry.
"W-w-w-w-hat h-h-h-happened?" a bewildered Robert asked. "I thought you were the ones supposed to be tied and they are the ones free?"
"Robert, Jerry, you have much to learn about our games. Since we caught you, you have to let us tie you, or you can back out like chickens!!" I answered.
Of course, they chose the brave (or foolish?) path, and did not back out. They are green as saplings to our games, and nothing better illustrates this than their reaction. At least Frank, Donald and the others expect this sort of things, so it was not that surprising to us. Angela and I then tied Robert's hand in front, decided to tie him in the closet the same way David was tied, but since he was too inexperienced, we decided to tie him to one of the bedposts. This was probably (although I'm not absolutely sure at that time) the first time Robert was tied-up, so we did not want to make it a traumatic experience for him. We untied his hands, led him to the bedposts so he was standing with his back leaning to the bed post, pulled his arms around the bedpost, and tied him similarly to the way Frank and Donald was tied up a while ago. It was only Jerry's second time, so Donald and Frank tied him to the other bedpost, and tied him the same way. They earlier had planned to hog-tie him, but decided that since they're too new to our games, they tied him to the posts instead.
Then we tickled them. We mercilessly tickled even Robert and Jerry, but especially Andrew and David. Angela in particular seemed to delight in torturing Andrew and David, especially since she had suffered so many defeats and tortures at their hands, in fact five or six in a row since. For her, revenge is sweet. Yes, she gained her revenge, and for her, it is indeed sweet. She finally gained what she joined us for. Andrew and David nearly laughed themselves to death, they jerked violently, and gave the usual reaction. Their faces became bright red. Angela ignored Robert and Jerry and concentrated relentlessly on the two. It was with great difficulty that Frank, Donald and I persuaded her to give the required 2-3 minute breaks we always give each other during these tickle sessions.
We ended the tickling after 30 minutes. We went out of the room to give them a chance to escape, although there isn't much chance at that. Our main worry is that any of the tikes would free Andrew and David and throw out our chances of victory. Fortunately, most of the tikes were awake, and were playing outside. They already had eaten breakfast, while the adults were downstairs, our Dads in particular preparing for the boating that will occur in about one or two hours. Mom served us breakfast, and we ate. After thirty minutes, we returned to find the four pretty much the same as when we left them. We untied them, and we again congratulated each other for a good game. This was our fifth win, and for Angela, her first. Robert and Jerry were angry, but not at us. They were angry at Andrew and David for initiating a game without consulting them first, to which Andrew apologized and promised to always include them in their plans before carrying them out. But other than that, they enjoyed it. They swore revenge, which is pretty much what we wanted to hear from the rookies.
So ends another game. It started as another win for Andrew and David in their succession of victories, but thanks to my sister Betty, it turned into a win for us. We won our first game in summer. I didn't expect another game that day.
But Angela has other plans. What is it? Read the next part and find out!
