Chapter 16: The Torture Of One's Screams.
Jack didn't sleep the whole night. He just cradled Karla in his arms and made sure she was okay. He felt so angry and scared. He never did understand why his father became like this and why he was so bitter and cold towards his own children. Jack sighed and looked down at Karla. Karla's condition was getting worse and worse, Jack wasn't going to give up on hope though. He knew that Captain Williams and the crew would be doing everything they could to get Karla and Jack back on the Black Pearl where they would be safe once again. Jack knew while they were prisoners on their father's ship they would be going through some kind of hideous torture. Jack never did care what happened to him, but he was really worried about what they would put Karla through. All Jack knew was that he would try to protect Karla with everything he had. He would give his life to protect his little sister.
Jack hugged Karla close to him when he heard people coming towards the brig. He knew something bad was about to happen. Karla woke up hearing noises and Jack hushed her. He kept his eyes and ears fully alert as he saw two huge figures come towards their cell.
"Let go of the stupid lass." One of the burley pirates roared. Jack held onto Karla more tighter than ever.
"Ye ain't touchin' her, savvy?" Jack said. The big pirate grumbled and unlocked the door and charged at Jack and hit him square in the nose. Jack let go of Karla as his hands went automatically to his now bloody nose. He could hear Karla trying to struggle as the huge pirate dragged her towards the deck. The other pirate laughed in Jack's face and locked the cell door once again.
"Ye'll be next. ye bloody stupid, pathetic git." The pirate hissed as he also headed up onto the deck.
Jack cursed out loud and punched the wall frustrated for letting them touch Karla so easily. He sat against the wall as he heard Karla scream. Tears filled Jack's eyes as every one of his sister's screams grew more louder and were filled with more pain. It killed Jack inside bit by bit every single time he heard Karla's cries of agony. Finally her screams caused Jack's tears to fall freely down his cheeks and he sobbed violently. His father knew Jack too well. Captain Fierce knew that it would hurt Jack more if he hurt the ones he most loved. Hearing Karla's screams of agony was enough torture to break Jack bit by bit until Jack had no strength left to fight. But Jack still wouldn't give up that easily, especially when it came to Karla.
All Jack could do as he heard his sick sister's screams was pray and beg that she would be able to pull through all of this pain and torture. All he could do was cry with her and tell her it would be okay. Jack could feel the pain that Karla felt, and it was so unbelievably real. Jack wouldn't and couldn't break, not if he wanted to protect Karla. So he would keep suffering to be there for his beautiful younger sister until the very end.
The pirates came back down to the brig and threw now unconscious Karla back into the cell. Jack gulped in fear of her condition but before he could get to her to see if she was alive, let alone breathing, the two huge, mean looking pirates grabbed Jack and forcibly pulled his arms behind him and roughly pushed Jack out of the cell and onto the deck.
As Jack lie on the deck of his father's ship being tortured, beaten and kicked by about twenty of his men, Jack just prayed and prayed that Karla was still alive down there in that cell. Jack didn't give his father's crew the satisfaction of crying out in pain as he was finally beaten to the point of unconsciousness. The last thing he did was pray that his sister was okay as darkness overwhelmed him.
