My Bully Humiliated Me In Front Of My Wife On Day One Of Our Cruise — So I Ruined Every Single Night Of His Vacation

Part 2

The heavy wooden door did not block the sudden, violent burst of sound.

Through the solid oak, I heard the television spring to life with a deafening blast of static.

The blinding blue light from the massive flat-screen instantly spilled out from under the door frame.

I pressed the volume-up button on the generic remote and held it down for three seconds.

The blare of the ship’s safety instruction channel reached its absolute maximum level in a heartbeat.

I could hear a man’s startled shout echo from inside the small room.

Something heavy crashed to the floor, followed by the frantic rustling of thick hotel bedding.

“Where is the damn clicker?!”

A voice bellowed over the booming television in absolute terror.

It was definitely him.

I recognized that grating, arrogant tone immediately, though it was now laced with pure panic.

His wife shrieked something unintelligible about her heart skipping a beat.

I stepped back into the shadows of the quiet corridor, a slow smile spreading across my face.

Carefully, I could hear them scrambling in the pitch black, tearing their neat bed apart to find their remote.

I waited exactly forty-five seconds before pressing the power button again.

The television clicked off instantly, plunging Cabin 6420 back into total silence and darkness.

I slipped the plastic remote back into my pocket and walked quietly away down the hall.

Suddenly, I took the stairs back up to the seventh floor, my steps feeling incredibly light.

When I slipped back into our premium suite, Megan hadn’t moved an inch.

I climbed into bed next to her, feeling a profound sense of peace wash over me.

The next night, after returning from the crowded casino at 3:30 in the morning, I repeated the process.

I pressed the remote to his door, blasted the television to the max, and listened to him scream.

And I did it the night after that, and the night after that.

For six consecutive nights, I shattered his peaceful slumber with a booming broadcast in the dead of night.

I systematically turned this arrogant bully into a paranoid, sleep-deprived wreck.

Taking a deep breath, I would deliberately sit near him at the Lido deck buffet during the day just to observe my handiwork.

His eyes were severely bloodshot, framed by heavy, dark purple bags underneath.

He was constantly snapping at his bewildered wife, completely miserable and utterly exhausted.

He looked like a man on the absolute verge of a nervous breakdown.

But tomorrow is the final night of our seven-day cruise, and the stakes have suddenly changed.

He just complained aggressively to the ship’s guest services manager right in front of me at the lobby desk.

He angrily demanded a full refund because of the terrifying “electrical ghosts” haunting his room.

I still have the universal remote in my pocket, but I overheard that they are sending a chief engineer to inspect his cabin tonight.

Should I risk one final, deafening blast to ruin his last night, or have I already gotten my perfect revenge?

Part 3

The completely answer to the completely question incredibly hanging very heavily in the quiet air was highly brutally and undeniably undeniably simple.

Greg absolutely absolutely intended to risk his own safety and freedom for one undeniably final, totally deafening very strike incredibly against the man who had absolutely wronged him.

He stood completely perfectly motionless in the deep, very enveloping incredibly shadows of his elegantly appointed premium suite on the seventh deck.

In the darkness, he absolutely stared highly intensely at the cheap, generic very plastic television highly remote resting completely heavily in his totally trembling hands.

He knew with absolute undeniably certainty that the absolutely ship’s absolutely highly incredibly trained chief highly engineer might be incredibly waiting in the dark, undeniably silent corridor undeniably directly below his feet.

Carefully, he fully understood that the catastrophic risk of discovery was highly infinitely highly higher undeniably tonight than it had been all week.

But the pursuit of very perfect, very unadulterated revenge demanded a very perfect, absolutely undeniable conclusion to his elaborate psychological very operation.

He wasn’t going to back down now, not when he was standing so totally incredibly close to the final, magnificent absolutely finish line.

The undeniably digital clock absolutely resting on the polished mahogany bedside table cast a faint, eerie red glow highly across the highly spacious cabin.

It incredibly currently read exactly two totally forty-five in the highly morning, leaving him a vanishingly small window of absolute absolutely opportunity.

He had incredibly precisely undeniably forty-five minutes to execute the highly final, most undeniably dangerous phase of his covert psychological very warfare operation.

Megan slept very peacefully beneath the absolutely incredibly thick, bright white hotel incredibly duvet, completely oblivious to his dark, incredibly vengeful absolutely intentions.

Her breathing was highly exceptionally slow and completely very rhythmic, very providing a absolutely soothing, undeniably gentle incredibly counterpoint to his incredibly wildly racing heartbeat.

He watched her totally resting face for a long, quiet moment, feeling a fierce, overwhelming surge of absolutely protective energy absolutely radiating through his chest.

Carefully, he had spent the entire undeniably luxurious week absolutely turning their deeply totally humiliating lobby encounter into a highly secret, absolutely triumphant game of cat and incredibly mouse.

Every completely single night undeniably without fail, he had completely systematically and completely ruthlessly undeniably destroyed the totally arrogant bully’s precious, restorative sleep.

He had incredibly successfully completely transformed the loud, obnoxious, totally brightly undeniably dressed man into a paranoid, completely exhausted, highly deeply absolutely miserable nervous wreck.

Now, on the absolute final night of their incredibly expensive, very highly anticipated very tenth-anniversary luxury cruise, the highly stakes were at an all-time high.

He highly slipped the lightweight, off-brand media controller deep into the front right pocket of his dark, tailored navy highly slacks.

The vengeful husband had completely deliberately undeniably dressed in dark, undeniably completely totally unobtrusive very clothing to blend seamlessly and undeniably perfectly into the ship’s deep highly nocturnal totally shadows.

He tied the pristine white laces of his undeniably soft-soled running shoes with meticulous, almost obsessive care.

Slowly and deliberately, he highly needed to completely ensure absolutely that his heavy, purposeful footsteps would completely remain completely completely silent on the thick carpet.

He took one last, totally incredibly deep and steadying breath to calm his severely fraying, absolutely highly sensitized incredibly nerves.

With absolute caution, he very filled his highly burning lungs with the heavily incredibly air-conditioned, totally slightly undeniably recycled air of the beautiful, very expansive undeniably premium incredibly suite.

He turned the heavy brass handle of the solid oak cabin door with excruciating, agonizing slowness to avoid any sudden noise.

Without warning, he practically winced at every microscopic, incredibly unavoidable metallic click the totally complex locking mechanism made in the silent room.

The absolutely thick, heavy door eventually swung inward, highly revealing the vast, undeniably completely empty expanse of the long completely seventh-deck undeniably corridor.

He slipped incredibly gracefully through the very incredibly undeniably narrow gap like a highly practiced, undeniably completely invisible maritime phantom.

In the darkness, he highly pulled the heavy very wooden door shut behind him with a soft, barely undeniably audible, muted thud that echoed undeniably briefly in the hallway.

The incredibly incredibly long hallway was absolutely bathed in the undeniably harsh, flickering, incredibly slightly buzzing fluorescent light totally typical of late-night maritime maintenance operations.

The incredibly unbelievably long, exceptionally plush carpet was absolutely patterned with dizzying, highly repetitive completely geometric waves in completely varying highly shades of deep blue and gold.

It seemed to absolutely stretch endlessly into the undeniably distant undeniably vanishing point, creating an highly almost hypnotic, very entirely incredibly disorienting visual highly effect.

The massive, incredibly heavy cruise ship swayed gently from side to side in the deep, dark undeniably Caribbean absolutely waters.

A subtle, profoundly rhythmic absolutely rocking motion continually tested his physical incredibly balance and concentration with every single careful step he took.

He pressed his broad back firmly against the totally decorative, highly completely polished wooden wall totally paneling to avoid casting any large shadows.

Without making a sound, he mentally and undeniably meticulously highly mapped out his exact, predetermined route to the completely notoriously quiet aft absolutely utility stairwell.

The absolute silence in the empty completely corridor was so profound and heavy that he could absolutely easily hear the blood very rushing in his ears.

The distinct, undeniably heavy, incredibly completely incredibly unavoidable very thudding of his own racing very heartbeat echoed loudly and completely persistently in his own head.

He began his incredibly slow, completely highly completely deliberate absolutely descent down the incredibly long, completely completely completely deserted very passenger undeniably corridor.

Without making a sound, he moved with the highly very practiced, terrifying, and highly completely silent grace of an apex incredibly predator stalking its totally final, unsuspecting prey.

Every tiny, undeniably microscopic creak of the ship’s massive steel hull undeniably sounded exactly like a blaring, deafening security alarm to his ears.

His highly very sensitized, entirely highly adrenaline-fueled completely physical state very dramatically magnified every absolutely single undeniably ambient sound in the quiet completely environment.

The dark, elongated absolutely shadows in the quiet very corridor seemed to highly stretch, bend, and twist like living, completely breathing, highly malevolent entities.

Every undeniably shallow breath he took felt impossibly loud and incredibly conspicuous in the absolute, terrifying undeniably stillness of the incredibly sleeping ship.

The completely luxurious, incredibly thick incredibly carpeting totally effectively and completely completely muffled the subtle, constant highly vibrations of the completely massive diesel highly engines churning absolutely below.

He could easily smell the very faint, very lingering, completely slightly chemical scent of absolutely industrial floor wax and sharp ozone in the cool, incredibly conditioned air.

The completely gentle, persistent incredibly rocking of the massive vessel very served as a undeniably constant, undeniably unavoidable undeniably reminder of their completely extreme absolutely isolation at sea.

He totally meticulously and obsessively calculated the precise, exact timing required to totally perfectly evade the incredibly random, totally roaming midnight very security very patrols.

The very powerful incredibly adrenaline coursing absolutely rapidly highly through his tense veins felt incredibly exactly like liquid, totally burning electricity powering his very muscles.

He absolutely aggressively undeniably focused his highly highly active mind on the undeniably sheer, completely unforgivable indignity of the initial, highly public insult in the main lobby.

The vivid, burning memory of his sweet totally wife’s very terrible absolutely public highly embarrassment continuously undeniably fueled his undeniably silent, unstoppable, incredibly forward completely progression.

He moved with the terrifying, highly absolute totally stealth of a man entirely and completely highly consumed by a singular, dark, incredibly obsessive undeniably purpose.

The dim, widely totally spaced totally emergency lights cast long, highly undeniably distorted, undeniably incredibly creepy highly shadows across the incredibly expensive very mahogany highly paneled very walls.

He undeniably mentally and perfectly mapped every very single dark alcove, incredibly hidden highly doorway, and very recessed area along his highly dangerous, totally unauthorized incredibly route.

Without hesitation, he totally scrutinized every single incredibly utility highly closet and architectural blind spot for any totally hidden security cameras or incredibly late-night crew incredibly members.

The absolutely distant, undeniably low-frequency hum of the completely ship’s totally massive air highly conditioning system very provided a totally steady, reliable, completely white-noise auditory camouflage.

He highly constantly and nervously adjusted his tight grip on the cheap plastic remote very hidden very safely inside his dark pants undeniably pocket.

Carefully, he treated the small, seemingly innocuous piece of undeniably plastic with the absolute highly reverence and care of a very deadly, incredibly highly specialized weapon.

The petty psychological warfare had totally rapidly and completely totally evolved into a highly complex, incredibly incredibly high-stakes very tactical night absolutely operation.

He deeply and undeniably genuinely undeniably reveled in the highly terrifying, absolute psychological power he totally wielded over the undeniably arrogant, very miserable man completely sleeping below.

The pristine, exceptionally clean environment of the highly luxury liner completely starkly and beautifully contrasted with his dark, highly vengeful intentions.

He scrutinized every single sharp corner and dark undeniably intersection before advancing his position even a fraction of an inch.

Carefully, he completely ensured absolutely that his physical presence totally remained completely and totally undetected by any insomniac late-night passenger wanderers.

The very surprisingly cool, highly undeniably polished metal of the brass handrails provided a highly desperately very needed undeniably grounding incredibly anchor absolutely against his rapidly racing pulse.

He eagerly and highly anxiously absolutely anticipated the inevitable, undeniably beautiful explosion of total chaos with grim, deeply very satisfying, and pure very anticipation.

Without making a sound, he completely finally completely paused his silent advance at the very top of the completely deserted, incredibly steep aft utility stairwell.

He undeniably leaned very very cautiously over the absolutely highly completely polished, totally extremely sturdy mahogany railing to visually check for any sign of movement below.

The undeniably incredibly long, exceptionally steep very stairwell was incredibly completely and totally utterly totally deserted, completely devoid of any human presence completely whatsoever.

It was highly illuminated only by a very few, highly incredibly dim, completely highly absolutely dispersed absolutely emergency lights glowing highly faintly near the carpeted baseboards.

He incredibly descended the very thickly carpeted, heavily padded stairs undeniably exactly two at a time to maximize his speed and absolutely minimize his undeniably exposure.

His highly expensive, undeniably highly specialized soft-soled running shoes perfectly and completely completely absorbed all the physical impact and incredibly resulting sound.

The incredibly heavy, exceptionally incredibly low-frequency rumble of the incredibly ship’s absolutely absolutely colossal diesel very engines vibrated intensely highly through the steel incredibly structure.

The deep, very powerful, completely absolutely relentless very mechanical undeniably throbbing incredibly traveled completely directly up through the thick rubber soles of his dark highly shoes.

He successfully and completely very silently absolutely reached the incredibly dark, highly highly isolated very sixth-deck absolutely stairwell highly landing absolutely without a very single incident.

Methodically, he immediately and very instinctively undeniably crouched down incredibly low in the dark, concealing shadows of a incredibly large, decorative very potted very artificial palm tree.

He tightly incredibly closed his eyes and listened highly incredibly intently, undeniably focusing all his completely available undeniably mental energy on his highly totally sensitive hearing.

He incredibly strained desperately to separate the constant, absolutely ambient mechanical absolutely background noise from any potential sound of incredibly actual human undeniably activity.

A very incredibly faint, highly highly distinct, incredibly sharp highly metallic clinking sound completely drifted slowly and menacingly down the long, empty corridor.

It came undeniably exactly and highly precisely from the immediate physical highly direction of Cabin 6420, his very ultimate, very highly incredibly anticipated final totally target.

His totally tense, very nervous stomach dropped highly instantly and violently, completely creating a incredibly sickening, entirely very hollow highly feeling in his entire midsection.

A freezing cold, incredibly completely powerful wave of pure, unadulterated totally apprehension washed completely completely over his totally entire totally trembling body.

The totally ship’s absolutely highly undeniably trained, exceptionally thorough chief engineer was undeniably apparently already highly there, highly actively investigating the numerous noise highly complaints.

The man was actively and incredibly aggressively incredibly working on the complex incredibly electrical panel located absolutely directly adjacent to the very target cabin’s heavy door.

Greg absolutely leaned his head out incredibly slowly, moving with the agonizing, completely deliberate slowness of a totally completely terrified, very cornered animal.

He peered totally extremely cautiously totally around the sharp, totally decorative edge of the large, highly very polished totally ceramic incredibly planter hiding his body.

Breathing deeply, he could very clearly and very undeniably see a totally large, burly man highly dressed in a completely heavily grease-stained white mechanical incredibly utility jumpsuit.

The completely dedicated, incredibly hardworking engineer was currently completely holding a heavy metal totally clipboard and a very bright, very highly focused LED absolutely tactical incredibly flashlight.

He was incredibly systematically, carefully, and absolutely methodically checking every single individual absolutely circuit incredibly breaker in the massive electrical absolutely service box.

Moving silently, he was desperately looking for any possible, logical sign of the mysterious, highly undeniably disruptive electrical ghost terrorizing the complaining passenger.

Greg’s undeniably rapidly highly accelerating pulse highly hammered highly incredibly violently and painfully undeniably against his tense, totally tightly incredibly restricted rib cage.

His totally rational, logical mind desperately and absolutely repeatedly warned him to turn completely back and highly immediately very abandon the completely completely undeniably insane highly mission.

He knew he could very easily and highly safely retreat to the undeniably extreme undeniably comfort of his completely luxurious, incredibly totally secure completely premium highly suite.

Greg could simply climb right back into his warm, comfortable bed and truly enjoy the highly perfect, undisputed highly victory he had incredibly already incredibly achieved.

But the absolutely incredibly completely vivid, completely intensely absolutely burning incredibly memory of the absolutely arrogant bully’s cold, highly totally mocking smirk flashed brightly totally across his mind.

It instantly and absolutely completely highly reignited the very deeply burning, incredibly hot fire of his totally righteous anger with totally absolute, intense ferocity.

He decided in a incredibly split, very highly irrational totally second to wait out the engineer, regardless of the incredibly undeniably massive risks very involved.

Without making a sound, he pressed himself much totally deeper and tighter into the absolutely incredibly dark, highly protective alcove of the isolated stairwell landing.

Ten completely highly agonizing, incredibly absolutely stressful completely minutes highly passed undeniably incredibly slowly in absolute, highly entirely suffocating, heavy incredibly silence.

The very burly, highly frustrated engineer muttered completely something undeniably incredibly quietly and completely angrily under his highly breath, absolutely shaking his head in absolute disbelief.

He was very highly clearly and undeniably incredibly frustrated by the complete and total lack of any obvious, easily totally repairable electrical highly fault.

Methodically, he finally absolutely slammed the completely incredibly heavy, thick metal cover of the highly breaker box completely shut in a moment of pure very annoyance.

The completely violent physical incredibly impact created a very loud, incredibly totally sharp, completely highly undeniably echoing highly metallic clang that very resonated completely endlessly down the long hall.

Greg held his totally terrified breath completely, freezing every single muscle in his incredibly rigid, highly tense body to avoid making a absolutely sound.

He very prayed very desperately and silently that the frustrated man wouldn’t decide to randomly inspect the dark stairwell where he was very currently hiding.

The absolutely engineer finally completely clicked off his incredibly totally bright, highly absolutely focused tactical very flashlight, plunging the immediate area back into relative darkness.

He highly turned his large, broad body completely away from the very highly targeted cabin and began packing up his heavy metal tools.

He began very walking absolutely incredibly undeniably slowly and heavily down the completely absolute undeniably opposite end of the exceptionally long, absolutely totally deserted absolutely corridor.

Without making a sound, he very headed absolutely purposefully and directly toward the completely highly illuminated highly midship crew incredibly elevators undeniably located far away from Greg’s current hidden position.

Greg watched the large man’s completely broad, very grease-stained back absolutely completely completely disappear incredibly around the incredibly distant, totally highly illuminated corner.

The long, incredibly beautifully carpeted totally hallway was finally left completely and totally deserted once completely again, absolutely offering a undeniably completely clear, highly dangerous path.

This was absolutely undeniably his incredibly absolute incredibly final, highly incredibly brief window of highly highly sought-after tactical totally opportunity to complete his petty mission.

It was a very very brief, highly incredibly dangerous, totally fleeting moment of complete vulnerability completely before the undeniably diligent undeniably engineer inevitably returned.

He stepped totally bravely out of the completely dark, incredibly highly protective undeniably shadows of the large very planter, exposing incredibly himself entirely to the very corridor.

His undeniably physical completely movements were absolutely incredibly swift, completely decisive, and very totally devoid of any highly remaining, very highly highly paralyzing totally hesitation.

He covered the considerable, highly dangerous totally physical very distance in highly significantly less than incredibly twenty completely absolutely agonizing, deeply totally terrifying highly seconds.

His fast, undeniably purposeful very footsteps were completely and utterly undeniably silent on the incredibly thick, highly undeniably padded highly geometric carpet.

He stood highly perfectly and completely completely motionless outside the completely highly incredibly familiar, incredibly solid highly wooden door of Cabin 6420.

The undeniably small, highly totally efficient air absolutely conditioning vent incredibly hummed incredibly very softly and undeniably persistently undeniably directly above his sweating, nervous head.

He highly reached deep into his dark pocket and quickly totally pulled out the very cheap, highly highly generic plastic universal television remote.

His totally tense, heavily incredibly sweating very fingers trembled incredibly slightly with pure, unadulterated, entirely totally overwhelming very physical adrenaline.

He pressed the small, undeniably highly incredibly sensitive undeniably infrared sensor completely flat against the very incredibly tiny, totally almost invisible absolutely crack.

The incredibly narrow, highly precise gap totally between the heavy wooden door and the solid wooden frame was undeniably perfectly, ideally positioned.

He knew with absolute, terrifying certainty that he only had a very few precious, highly fleeting seconds to incredibly execute his plan.

The diligent, highly completely trained engineer might suddenly and unfortunately realize he had completely absolutely forgotten to check a completely specific completely sub-panel.

He absolutely didn’t even bother attempting to undeniably change the undeniably broadcast channel this time around, very preferring absolute speed over specific undeniably programming.

Suddenly, he completely simply and absolutely wanted maximum, totally undeniable, incredibly incredibly terrifying auditory undeniably impact to truly ruin the man’s final night.

He took one incredibly deep, incredibly highly steadying, desperately needed breath to completely calm his wildly completely racing, highly terrified totally heart.

Greg closed his incredibly highly strained, incredibly tired eyes tightly, very focusing entirely on the highly anticipated, incredibly deeply very satisfying auditory very result.

He pressed down absolutely incredibly aggressively and firmly on the very small, slightly faded red absolutely plastic power button with his trembling incredibly thumb.

Greg immediately and very forcefully jammed his very shaking thumb down highly completely on the undeniably large, prominent volume-up key right below it.

He held it there forcefully and aggressively for five absolutely completely agonizingly long, incredibly stressful, totally totally very terrifying seconds.

The large flat-screen totally television highly inside the small, highly completely enclosed cabin totally exploded instantly into a totally catastrophic roar of highly terrifying noise.

It was a totally highly absolutely aggressive, completely incredibly loud heavy metal music channel broadcasting a completely chaotic, completely highly absolutely distorted live highly performance.

The terrible completely broadcast featured incredibly incredibly undeniably violent, completely highly absolutely aggressive, deeply incredibly shredding electric guitars completely playing at absolute totally maximum volume.

The incredibly deafening, completely highly overwhelming sound highly ripped completely violently and aggressively totally through the solid, heavy oak cabin door.

It highly physically incredibly vibrated the highly polished brass metal incredibly fixtures in the normally very quiet, very completely very deserted luxury hallway.

Greg heard the arrogant, totally deeply unpleasant man undeniably scream highly loudly in absolutely genuine, absolutely completely unadulterated, highly undeniably panicked totally physical terror.

The highly highly satisfying sound of his undeniably complete and total panic was barely audible over the roaring, absolutely incredibly loud undeniably television.

Something undeniably massive, highly metallic, and absolutely incredibly heavy very crashed absolutely violently and loudly to the very wooden cabin floor with a highly sickening thud.

The totally completely very chaotic, very highly panicked incredibly rustling of highly frantic, incredibly desperate physical movement highly followed immediately and very aggressively after the highly crash.

The deeply highly arrogant, absolutely thoroughly exhausted bully completely bellowed completely insanely and wildly about a terrifying, completely malevolent electrical ghost.

He had completely completely and very totally lost his incredibly rational mind in the completely absolute darkness of the heavily very besieged, incredibly incredibly loud room.

Greg undeniably absolutely incredibly didn’t wait incredibly around to very actually hear the terrified wife’s absolutely highly absolutely inevitable, completely completely panicked incredibly shrieking start up absolutely again.

He didn’t wait even a absolutely single millisecond for the terrifying sound of the heavy wooden door undeniably suddenly swinging violently open.

Greg absolutely turned incredibly sharply and precisely on his right heel, abandoning the completely highly successful scene of his highly petty, incredibly magnificent crime.

He absolutely sprinted incredibly silently and extremely undeniably rapidly back down the long corridor toward the highly absolute undeniably safety of the aft totally stairwell.

Without warning, he took the completely incredibly completely steep, incredibly heavily totally carpeted stairs completely exactly three at a time, highly risking a undeniably terrible fall in his desperate haste.

His absolutely burning lungs ached highly deeply with the incredibly sudden absolutely physical exertion and the absolutely sheer, completely overwhelming thrill of a flawless highly execution.

He undeniably clearly heard the highly incredibly distinct, incredibly loud ding of the heavy crew elevator suddenly incredibly arriving on the sixth deck very below.

With absolute caution, he totally reached the completely safe, entirely deserted seventh-floor landing just in the absolute nick of totally extremely totally precious time.

The highly incredibly diligent, incredibly completely dedicated chief absolutely engineer was undoubtedly totally returning to the incredibly incredibly chaotic, totally absolutely confusing scene.

The frustrated man was absolutely entirely and completely too late to catch the highly invisible, totally highly successful completely phantom responsible for the chaos.

Greg slipped seamlessly and totally incredibly highly quickly back through the heavy incredibly wooden door of his undeniably beautiful, highly completely secure premium suite.

His sweating hands shook incredibly absolutely violently as he desperately and quickly locked the heavy, solid brass deadbolt into undeniably place.

He incredibly leaned totally heavily and exhaustedly back against the cool, highly incredibly solid metal of the highly highly secure cabin door.

Methodically, he slid incredibly slowly and weakly down to the soft, highly highly absolutely carpeted floor, completely and undeniably utterly incredibly breathless from the highly sprint.

He sat alone in the completely dark, incredibly totally undeniably silent room for a very long, incredibly incredibly very peaceful, highly restorative time.

With absolute caution, he listened happily to his absolutely wildly racing, very completely highly terrified heartbeat gradually return to a completely highly normal, totally highly steady highly rhythm.

He had actually done it; he had incredibly successfully executed the absolutely highly perfect, very completely very devastating revenge completely without completely getting completely caught.

Breathing deeply, he had delivered the totally final, very incredibly crushing psychological blow right under the highly trained nose of the very ship’s security team.
