It stopped, could it be over? One final lash caused his teeth to rattle in his head, then the rope was pulled tight.
Every muscle in Jack’s body tensed. His eyes met those of the French man. In the black depths rage so tangent it was felt could be seen.
“Up, Sparrow.” The French man commanded. The rope tugged viciously into his wrists. Jack didn't have the strenght in his legs. His body denied itself, and it didn't move.
The French man yelled again, "Up Sparrow!" He then walked over to Jack screaming, "Up! I said up!" Then, without warning, the man punched Jack on his chest. Jack surged upwards to his feet in one fluid motion that betrayed his inner havoc. Immediately, his chest started to bleed. The French man had hit the bullet wounds and now blood poured out. Jack gagged for fresh air.
He couldn’t stand it anymore, but then being upright again wasn’t good either. The pulsing in his head tripled that which ran along his shoulders and down his spine. His knees were numb and it took all he had to just stay standing.
His breath came in harsh gasps. Jack was shivering and shaking slightly and his eyes started to grow glassy. The loss of blood was staggering and his mind flinched when he saw the droplets of crimson on the whip still in the man’s hand.

Margaret had till now been, upset, calm, and scared. But know she was angry. She twisted her arms till she felt the gun, and with a new found strength she elbowed one of the guards, she grabbed the gun and aimed it at the head of the guard that had punched Jack, and cocked the gun. She heard similar cocking sounds around her but stayed calm. "Gentlemen," she said. "I would appricate it if you wouldn't aim your guns at me or my friend, lest I fire mine at your companion."

The french man sneered at Margaret then said, "Vous petit diable dégoûtant..." His cold blue eyes stared at her young face. He then walked up to her, fearing no gun, "Conzider yourz friend already dead..."
Jack was in to tight of a gaze to notice what was happening before him. He felt his knees buckle and his body sway unwillingly. He could no longer see straight, everything was becoming a blur and shrinking away from reality.

Margaret raised the gun closer to his head. "I am not scared to use this." She threatened, although she was terrified. Her finger was secure on the trigger. One shot was all it would take. Then making her choice she fired.
The lantern fell causing the flame to go out, Margaret kept hold of the gun, her adreniline now pumping, she grabed Jack, remembering where he was, and went to the small bit of light from uder the door. She felt like she was in a dream, Jack was stumbling, but she kept running. As soon they were in the Hall she heard voices shouting out and ran in the other direction. Soon she found an empty room with a bed and bucket of cleaning water. She shut the door, and latched it from the inside.

As soon as the door shut, Jack colapsed onto his knees. He felt his pulse surging through his body, and could feel heat spewing out of the bullet holes with every beat his heart took. Jack didn't look himself, for one thing he was pale and sweaty, but there was something different about his eyes.
Meanwhile, shouts of guards and French men echoed through the halls as they searched for Margaret and Jack.

Margaret whipped around too Jack. "Oh god." She breathed. She rushed over and moved him onto the bed. Then she took the rest of her shirt off, glacd she was wearing an under shirt. And ridded it into 4 pieces. One she soaked into the water and placed it on Jacks forehead, and the others, she used on the bleeding gun shot wounds. "Don't give up Jack. Don't die. Don't forget what you are, a Pirate, Jack Sparrow, your brave and clever, your the only one I have right now. Just don't leave me alone. Please." she cried softly holding one of his hand with her own as she used the other to clean his wounds. "You need to stay strong. We both do."

Jack's body gasped for air. He coughed and blood splattered on the bed from his mouth. He fought against the current that was drawing him away from Margaret's grasp. He forced himself to concentrate in order to respond to the voice.
Though, the darkness became even darker and it sent grey waves of dizziness rushing through him. “I can't die yet, I’m not going to leave her!” Jack thought and wrenched free of the grey mist. He needed to hold on, he wouldn’t just give in and allow death to take over.
Jack kept fighting with his last strength reserve he struggled against the dark nothing that slowly closed in on him.
The entire time a smaller voice in the back of his mind murmured for him to let the blackness consume him until all the pain was gone. How he so wanted to just give up, to stop struggling against what seemed hopeless. It would be so much easier just to let everything go and give in to weakness for once in his life....

Margaret watched Jack struggle. She needed him. "Jack please. I need you. Don't die." And she leaned in and kissed his cheek and whispered in his ear. "Your stronger then this, your the reason I have been untained."

The small voice of Margaret called out to him in the mass blackness taking over his eyes.
His hand grasped her hand so tight that he went white in the knuckles. It couldn't end like this! He wasn't going to let it happen! No, he couldn't. He had to stop it, but yet, the tugging blackness of relief held him by the throat.
His eyes looked ahead of himself as if he were staring into another dimension. Then suddenly they started to roll back into his head and his blinks became heavy.
(SAW, now would be a great time for the Captain to come and retrieve Jack and Margaret.)

A young french guard peeked into the room and smirked, he raised his finger on his lips and hssed them to be quiet. Flip raised his hat enough for them to see his face before he pressed it down and closed the door, the other guards thought that they weren`t there. Now the search went on in the other rooms, they wouldn`t find anything in a while and when they were farther away Flip could slip away to help margaret and Jack.
Another guard came to him asking something in french and Flip shrugged, which luckily was enough before they procceeded into another rooms. After some rooms, Flip slipped away and made sure he wasn`t seen as he entered the room again. He took off his hat
"Darn brats made me kill a guard, take his stinking clothes and then sneak in here to rescue you! You should have jumped overboard when the battle began... anyway let`s get out of here."
Flip said as he walked up to them.

Margaret looked at Flip. Her hand still holding Jack's. "We can't Just walk out. Jack will die if we don't do something." She felt the tears return. "He bleed for me, he protected me, he got shot for me. So do you have any other ideas to help us to get out."

Flip bit his tongue and scrathed his head as he pondered a way to get out, he grinned and looked at Jack quietly. Flip tookout some bandages the guard had had in his pocket and threw it to Margaret.
"Patch his wounds up the best you can... Then we are going to get out of here.."
He took some blankets and set them on the side of the bed.
"Jack gets the honour of being dead... just for a while... there is a doctor in town that can take better care of him than either of us and the garrison doctor wouldn`t co-operate not to mention we would be caught..."

Margaret nodded gravely. "I was able to get some herbs and maked that mush patty that I make for the pain to lessen, you know which one, but it didn't work, maybe the pain was more then even the medicine could handle."

"Well in anycase patch him up and then we will wrap this blanket around him, the guards are probably most willing to let s pass when they hear that this body has the plague and you might affected as well... so I would have to shoot you... hah.. cap would skin me and even worse..."
Flip laughed.

Margaret gave Flip a dirty look as she fixed Jack up as best as she could. "Be careful with him. They branded him and whipped him. They made me watch the second time. But he took it all."

"Sure..."
Flip said as he waited for Jack to be patched up, then he wrapped Jack aroumd without any words and lifted Jack on the corner of the bed. Flip looked at Margaret she had some blood on from Jack, splendid.
"Put the blanket around you tightly, walked looking downwards and do not lift your eyes. Cough every now and then to give the right image..."
Flip said before throwing Jack on his shoulder.
