Katyusha

Chapter XIII

"You actually shot me! The hell!!" Fredrich screams out in pain as his knee cap has been shattered from the bullet impact.

With a clam composure, Andrei primes his revolver and aims again and with a crooked smile he says " I'm a experienced torturer of Comrade Stalin's military police with prisoner interrogation handling. If I so wish, I'll castrate you if it comes down to it... Now mark the maps Cyka I won't ask again!"

With a steady flow of tears flooding down Fredrichs cheeks, he works up the courage and with a deep breath he speaks "To hell with you red devil!" He spat.

A second shot resonates from the M1895 Nagant and this time the bullet has pierced Fredrich's lower leg bone, just below the knee cap where the first bullet wound is.

"Talk Cyka! Mark the maps!!" Andrei yells, using pain and scare tactics to hopefully get cooperation and break the boys will. He'll kill him in the end if he doesn't begin talking again, so he's going to use a barbaric method he picked up from the secret police, and when he was brought in by Kir. Andrei has noticed his right hand is his dominant and most likely left hand, so he'll nail the left instead.

"Kir! Get the hammer and nails from the back storage, then grab his left hand and hold it out on the table." Andrei orders watching Kir nod his head before slipping off his stool and quickly retreats into the back.

Appearing a moment later with a bucket of nails in one hand, and a mallet instead of a hammer. Which only causes Andrei to smile his dastardly smile.

Kir hands the tools over to the awaiting Podpolkana and then he grabs onto Fredrich's left hand as ordered and forces his quivering hand out on the table.

"I'm a reasonable honest man am I not Fredrich? Now this is your final chance to cooperate with us, if not... I'm going to hammer these nails into the your knuckles until I'm forced to move onto your right hand, the choice is yours to stop the pain." Andrei says coldly, and a look of horror hits Fredrich's face and he begins to struggle, but the strength of Kir keeps him in place without much effort.

Andrei picks up the first nail and he holds onto his hammer tightly, a smile plays his lips as he finds the spot that'll hurt the most. With a yell, Andrei slams the nail into the space between Fredrich's index and middle knuckle on his hand where the "webbing" between the fingers connects to the hand itself, and the loud crack of the hammer follows.

When the sound of the hammer drives down, there's a loud crack signifying it went all the way through and into the table. There's blood gushing down through the hole and there's splatter on the floor from the impact, and in turn. Caused Fredrich to release a agonized scream of pain and his bodies beginning to shake uncontrollably from the shock and adrenaline.

"Hold him still damn it!!" Andrei thunders as he grabs another nail and Kir does as he is told, hesitant and unable to stand the sight that he's seeing right now as he watches Andrei set up for another strike.

"WAIT!! Wait damn it wait!!! I'll do it just stop!!" Fredrich screamed out in further agony as the thought of another nail getting hammered into his hand, was something he wouldn't be able to comprehend or survive mentally.

With a smile that's expressing pure evil on the face of Andrei, he simply looks at Fredrich and says" Good little fascist pig." He reaches over and grabs the head of the nail and begins pulling the nail out from Fredrichs hand, causing the young man to scream from the pain erupting again. As it's finally removed after a painful 12 seconds, and now there's just sobs racking the young boys body.

Tossing the blood soaked nail away, Andrei leans forward and says "I reward good little bastards like you for good behavior, now mark the maps or so help me I'll send you to the Gulag anchored off shore instead of remaining under my custody and protection!"
