Love Boat (Tom, Ben, Zac and Joel story)

Torture and pokerface

*Tom*
I groan with pain as I come around, both my hand and my head is throbbing badly. Finding myself in the middle of the room, my hands tied together and attached to the hook in the ceiling that used to have a lamp dangling from it.

Should I scream for help ? Maybe, but as we is currently in harbour, well the ship is all but empty. The chance someone would hear me is minimal and they might get even more nasty if I try. I hear Dmitri's voice. "Well good morning loverboy".

"Honestly that just sound so creepy coming from you, you know that right ?" Yeah I know, should be shutting up and not keep annoying the bad guy, but at this point I don't really think it matters.

He gets up, slowly shaking his head, like I am some badly behaved teenager. "Such a comedian. You really don't know when to shut up do you ?" His fist connecting with my diaphragm almost makes me throw up.

"Actually I do. And I am not going to tell you were she is no matter what you do to me, so can we just get this over with ?" I manage to press out when I get air back into my lungs.

He nods to someone, his goon I assume, and suddenly I am grabbed and my T-shirt is torn open in the front, exposing my chest. "Hey hey that is a bit handsy for a first date".

"Better start talking or that could easily be arranged you know. I might like my men big and muscular, but Ivan here likes the pretty ones like you". Dmitri says with a nasty smile.

I stare at him, feeling bile rise into my throat, swallowing hard. "Yeah.. I just threw up in my mouth a little bit there. Thanks, but no thanks. Ivan is not really my type".

"Well actually Ivan don't care about your opinion. But we got some other fun things in store for you first. Show him Ivan". Dmitri muses.

Ivan step in front of me. Honestly I don't like the smile playing on his lips. He picks up the table lamp, pulling of the power cord, and then pulling the two wires apart. As he hold them up, he touches the two ends slightly against each other and the sends the sparks flying. Yup this ain't good.

"So one last chance to tell me were she is". Dmitri ask, but I just shake my head. He can't intimidate or torture me to give her up. A man like him can't be allowed to win.

As the wires touch my nipples and the electricity goes through me, making my body twitch and shake uncontrollable I do scream though.. I don't have a choice not to, as it feels like I am being torn apart.

"So are you ready to talk now or do you want more ?" Dmitri asks, as I stop shaking. My mouth tastes like metal and my body aches, but I shake my head.

Dmitri nod to Ivan, who lifts the wires, ready to shock me again. Just then the door is thrown open and Zac steps in. "Uhh, looks like I am late for the party".

"You should have stayed away. This isn't a party you want to attend". Dmitri says to Zac, who just shrugs and edges closer. I want to tell him to get out while he can, but my voice won't really work.

Zac glances at me, halfway whispering. "Are you okay Tom ?"

"Kind of. What's our exit strategy ?" I ask him hopeful that there is a solution to this.

He looks at me. "Our what?"

"Oh my god, we're both going to die then. Well this is just peachy". I say with a sigh. So typical Zac, just barging in with no plan.

Dmitri slams the door, looking kind of bored. "Well if you two ladies are done with the chit chat, maybe we could get on with this".

"What about you get the fuck out of here and we forget this happened ? Oh and you stay away from both Tom and Holly. Doesn't that just sound like a great idea ?" Zac says, sounding way to calm and collected.
