Devil's Cruelty Ch.4
Heidi groaned, why was her bed so uncomfortable this morning? It felt like she was lying on a pile of bricks. Maybe she was, but she couldn't be that stupid to lie on a pile of bricks. Could she? Very slowly she cracked open an eye and saw that she was in her own room but everything was turned sideways. Heidi looked down and realized that she was lying on her floor!
"Wha' the bloody 'ell!" she cried trying to get up. Unfortunately she had a headache the size of Africa and she slumped back down. What the hell had she done last night?
"Okay Kessler, ye can do it," she said as she ever so slowly got to her feet. She stood there for a minute to let the pain in her head go away but it didn't. 'Damn it,' she thought. Heidi noticed that she wasn't so far from her door so she must've just fallen dead asleep as soon as she opened her door.
"I need t' quit drinkin' so much," she mumbled as she went to change her clothes, she hated to admit it but she stunk like a pig. She looked down at her clothes and quirked an eyebrow, okay this was interesting.
"Wha' the hell! Why the bloody 'ell is there mud all over me clothes," she mumbled, not paying too much attention to what she was doing. When she was dressed she slowly began to make her way towards the door. She opened it and was immediately blinded by the sun.
"Ah shit!" she cried, which in turn made her head hurt and now that her head was hurting again, she didn't feel too good. In fact she didn't feel well at all, uh oh. Heidi was going to throw up all over her deck if she didn't hurry! Very quickly she rushed over to the side of her ship and leaned over; it felt like she was losing everything inside of her. When she was finished, she heard someone laughing and she didn't even have to look up to know who it was.
"Curse tha' bloody arse! I thought I told 'im not t' follow me," Heidi mumbled under her breath. She stood up and wiped her mouth with her sleeve, giving him the most evil glare she could gather. Sparrow just stood there laughing, how dare he laugh at her!
"Wha's so funny Sparrow?" Heidi asked menacingly walking over to the plank that led off her ship.
"Ye, ye drink so much but ye can't hold any of it," he chuckled some more but stopped when Heidi marched off her ship and onto his.
"Oh ye think its funny do ye, tell me Sparrow why did ye follow me 'ere? Do ye 'ave a death wish?"
"No actually I don't, I really enjoy me life actually," Jack said coming closer to her, he was now towering over her tiny frame.
"Then why did ye follow me?" Heidi spat.
"Ye want t' know why I followed ye?"
"Aye," Heidi was getting angry, why couldn't he just answer the question?
"This is why I followed ye," Jack said, just as angrily, pulling up her sleeve.
"Wha' the bloody 'ell is tha'!" Heidi shrieked and tried to take it off her arm.
"It won't come off," Jack said, leaning against the railing of his ship.
"Aye it will, wha' kind of bracelet doesn't come off?" Heidi asked, still trying to tug it off. Her arm was getting red from all her pulling.
"Tha' one," Jack said offhandedly
"Sparrow leave me alone!" she yelled at him, finally giving up on getting the bracelet off.
"You're on me ship!" Jack yelled back, "ye leave me alone!"
"No, I said I was goin' t' kill ye an tha's wha' I'm goin' t' do," Heidi growled at him.
"Ye 'ave no weapons," Jack pointed out, his voice still raised above normal. There was a small crowd of people watching now as the two infamous Captain's yelled at each other on the Black Pearl.
"I'll still kill ye," Heidi yelled, lunging at the Captain of the ship.
She jumped on top of him and proceeded to try and attack him until she felt cold metal against her throat.
"Not before I kill ye," Jack growled, pushing the blade harder into her neck. Suddenly Heidi felt a sharp pain in her wrist.
"Sparrow ye arse ye hurt me wrist!" Heidi cried and pulled up her sleeve to see what had happened.
"I didn't touch your wrist! You're crazy lass!" Jack said, looking at her wrist as well.
"It's burnin'!" Heidi cried in pain. She rolled off Jack and crouched down on the deck in pain. She was clutching her wrist in her hand and the pain was roaring through her.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow OUCH!" she yelled as her wrist continued to burn. There was smoke coming out of it and she could smell burning flesh, as could Jack. He tried to help her but there was nothing he could do, he knew the bracelet was doing it but that was all. Then, as soon as the pain started it disappeared, the only thing Heidi could feel were dull aches in her arm. She slowly got up off the deck and stood there clutching her wrist. Here eyes were wide and held a mixture of pain and ... fear? Jack wasn't sure but he didn't like the look of them.'
"Let me see tha' Kessler," Jack said reaching out for her wrist.
Heidi shook her head, "No," she said and rushed off his ship. The crowd parted for her and she ran onto her own ship.
"Sly! Sly get in 'ere now!" they heard her yell from her quarters. Jack sighed, the woman was crazy.
"Get out of 'ere!" Jack yelled to the crowd on the docks, now looking at Kessler's ship. They quickly scrambled away at the sound of his angry voice.
on the Devil's Cruelty
"What's the matter Captain?!" Sly rushed into his Captain's room to find her standing there with wide eyes.
"Me wrist! Me wrist started burnin'!" she said in a panicky voice.
"Let me see Captain," he said, taking her wrist in his hand and slowly prying her hand off it. He gasped at what he saw and quickly looked away. Heidi looked too and nearly fainted at the sight of it. Her wrist was all burned around the bracelet; there was puss and burns wounds all around it. It was all red and purple and swollen, it was the ugliest thing Heidi had ever seen and she had seen a lot of ugly things. Then she remembered that she had been holding her wrist with her other hand, carefully she raised her hand and looked at it. It was the exact same as her wrist, she turned it around and showed Sly. He gasped again and quickly went to fetch bandages. When he returned Heidi was standing in the exact same spot just staring at her wounds.
"How the hell did this happen? Did that Jack Sparrow do this to you?" Sly asked, wrapping the bandage around her wrist.
"No it was the bracelet," she winced when his fingers touched a particularly nasty wound.
"The bracelet? Are you feeling alright Captain?"
"Aye, now jus' 'urry up wit' these damn bandages," Heidi snapped. Sly nodded and quickly finished wrapping bandages around her wrist and her other hand. When he was finished Heidi grabbed her coat, effects, and hat and walked away quickly down the street. Sly watched as she walked away as did Jack from his own ship.
"She 'as no idea wha' she's in for," Jack said as he too left his ship in search of rum and fine women.
Jack walked into the nearest bar, The Glittering Mermaid, and got a mug of rum. He couldn't stop thinking about how stupid Kessler was for drinking too much. Not that he should talk. But honestly that woman was as daft as a pile of horse manure; she always did what she wanted to do and never listened to anyone.
"Well that'll 'ave t' change," Jack said out loud and took a sip of his room. He was sitting so he could see anyone and anything that walked into the bar. He liked it that way; sitting with his back to the crowd was stupid in his opinion. A very good way to get killed.
Jack noticed that Sly had come into the bar. He was Captain Kessler's first mate wasn't he? Or was he her lover? Jack wasn't sure but he wanted to find out so he listened in on the conversation he was having with the bartender.
"Hey John!" Sly said with a smile as he sat down at the bar.
"Sly? Is tha' ye?" John the bartender asked.
"Aye it is," Sly replied, his smile never dying.
"Sly me boy! 'Ow 'ave ye been?" John asked, giving him a mug of rum.
"Fine as always."
"Ye still wit' Captain Kessler?"
"Aye, I'm 'er first mate now."
"Really wha' 'appened t' ol' Tom?" John asked with interest.
"She got wind of him planning mutiny so she fed him to the sharks," Sly replied.
"Did they actually get 'im?"
"Oh yeah, she tied his own tongue to him and she cut him up so that he was bleeding real bad. The sharks all came after him then. She pointed a gun at him the entire time saying that if he tried to swim she'd shoot him in the leg so he'd suffer more. Poor bugger got eaten to death right in front of us."
"She made ye watch?"
"Aye she wanted us to know what'd happen if we ever tried mutiny," Sly replied. Jack cringed, he had heard that story before but he didn't think it was true.
"She hasn't changed much has she?" John laughed and Sly joined in.
"That she hasn't."
"I saw 'er rush past 'ere a while ago, seemed panicked. Do ye know wha' 'appened?"
"Aye, she burnt her hand and her wrist real bad, probably just going to see the doctor." At this Jack stood up and walked out of the bar in search of Heidi. She should not be walking around with that thing on her wrist; it wasn't a good idea at all to be doing that.
in the doctor's office
"Heidi Kessler the doctor will see you now," the receptionist said. (A/n: I don't know if they had receptionists but I'm putting one anyway.)
"Captain, Captain Heidi Kessler," she corrected and followed the woman into a room.
"The doctor will be with you shortly Captain," the woman said and walked away. Heidi sat down on a chair and looked around. She hated doctors; they scared the living daylights out of her.
"Hello Captain Kessler," a man said, as he walked into the room. He was a very round man with white hair and glasses. He didn't look like a good doctor but what more could you expect in a pirate town?
"Hello," Heidi replied, looking at her hands. Oh how she hated doctors.
"What's the problem today young miss?"
"Well I seem to have burned myself quite badly do you have anything for burns?"
"That I do but before I give you anything I'd like to take a look," he replied, taking her hand in his, for he couldn't see her wrist and Heidi didn't want him to either.
He carefully unwrapped the bandage and gasped slightly when he saw it.
"What caused this?" he asked, his voice laced with worry.
"Oh just a little fire tha' I 'ad wit' me crew," Heidi lied.
"Ah well I take it you'll be more careful next time," the doctor said, re-wrapping her hand and turning around to a large counter full of medicine.
"O' course," Heidi smiled when he handed her a bottle.
"Now this cream should take care of that burn, use all of it."
"Could I actually get another one o' those in case somethin' 'appens to me crew an' I need it," Heidi lied again.
The doctor eyed her, "sure it's always a good idea to have some of it lying around." He handed her another bottle and she paid him and walked out. Oh man, she hated doctors so much.
As soon as she stepped out of the office she slammed right into Captain Jack Sparrow, who else?
"Curses ye bloody arse, why are ye always followin' me!?" Heidi said, taking a step back from him.
"I think there's something you need to know about that bracelet," Jack said in a serious tone.
"Well I don't care, now if ye'll excuse me I've got some drinkin' t' do," Heidi stated before walking away down the street.
Jack just stood there, what a stupid, stupid woman she was.
