want if Mary look so sad if she remember about her family. If Mary sad, he always try to make Mary laughing again and makes Mary feel comfort beside him. Charlie
always looking out for Mary, he was too afraid to lose Mary or the other tries to take her from Charlie.
One day, Charlie comes to a place where a man named Muck stay there. Charlie say something which made Muck get angry to him and he like dare to Muck.
Because of that, when Charlie’s walking on Lambert streets to get some food for his friend, Muck comes and hit him on Charlie’s back head with the hard thing like wood
and finally Charlie died on Muck’s hand. Muck bring Charlie’s corpse to Dr. Grave place to become a research like they want. The death of Charlie of course made Mary
feel so sad, because she didn’t want to lose a leader and also a brother. But Mary can’t do anything, she just crying if she remembers that incident. That’s all happened
because of Charlie’s carelessness on his attitude and words of the Muck. He should be able to better maintain his attitude and words to Muck because of Muck’s job is
collect the bodies to become research material doesn’t mean that he can act arbitrarily to Muck. Because whatever work of someone we should cherish it, because they did
it to survive just like Mary and friends done.
4.4 Liam Delaney
An Irishman and skilled sailor, he is Jackys overseer and sea dad who gives her tips and rescues her from ill-intentioned men on board. Liam never makes Mary
feeling shy but he always makes Mary feel comfort if she beside him. For the first
Universitas Sumatera Utara
meeting, he teaches Mary to make ropes. Liam is tall and strong. His hair is as black as the coal. He can plays a flute which is has six holes and also he teaches me to play
it. Liam ever reminded Mary of a thing: “Up in the rigging in the sunlight is the safe place for a ship’s boy, not
crawling around down in the dark hold. You listen to your old sea dad.”
Bloody Jack, page: 69
I think why Liam always remembered Mary to stay at the open place like that it just fro to keep Mary from every bad habit which can beat her down on that ship.
Liam has assume Mary like his daughter, so he was always remembered Mary about what she must to do and what she must let it. Like the caution of Liam on the
quotation above. But, Mary like didn’t care about Liam caution, she stay crawl on the dark part of that ship.
When Mary’s friend Benjy’s died because of the war between their ships with the pirates, Mary more closely with Liam. Because, she feels comfort beside him so
she spends much time with her sea dad. Liam always let Mary cry but that’s not takes a long time. Because Liam didn’t want if Mary prolonged sadness.
“Jacky. You’ve got to let them go after a while, you know. You grieve for your mates what have passed on for a decent time and then you
have to let them be.” Bloody Jack, page: 116

From the quotation above, we know that Liam didn’t want if Mary always sad because of the death of her friend. Liam want Mary let her friend because after all
Mary cannot crying all the time because of that. Liam ask Mary to think about the best time that ever they made together not the sad time with him and also Liam want
Mary didn’t always think about the death of her friend. Even though Mary still feels sad, she always try to accept that and try to do what Liam want her to do.
Liam just like a savior for Mary. When a cadet named Sloat come to disturb Mary, Liam come and save Mary from Sloat. He knows that Sloat would sodomize
Mary. He is really angry to Sloat until he said that he’ll kill Sloat if he disturbs the child’s.
“Touch any boys again and I’ll kill you where you stand.” Bloody Jack, page: 159
The quotation above, prove that Liam really care of all the children and he always protects them. Especially Mary which is like his daughter. Liam really know
every misdeed of the people on that ship especially Sloat which homosexual. Every Mary get the misdeed from the cadets on that ship, Liam always come and tries to
help Mary out of the situation, let Mary out of from the people who want to hurt her. Liam didn’t want if Mary gets hurt because of them. But, not only Mary that he didn’t
want to hurt but also the other child that is Mary’s friend. Liam always tried to remembered them do not come into the dark part of that ship and he always try to
keep them from the people who want to hurt them.

Since that incident, Liam always gave more protects to Mary and the others child. He didn’t want if any child get abuse from Sloat or another cadet who want to
sodomize them. Mary is very happy to known and close with Liam. And also Mary happy that Liam is her sea dad.
