To complete the sentence appropriately, we need a verb that fits the context of Jacob's actions with the bucket of water. The options given are "incinerate," "accost," "doused," and "apple."

- **Incinerate** means to burn something completely, which doesn’t fit with using water.
- **Accost** means to confront someone boldly, but doesn’t imply using a bucket of water.
- **Doused** means to pour a liquid over something, which fits perfectly since Jacob is holding a bucket of water.
- **Apple** is a noun and does not work as a verb in this context.

Therefore, the best choice to fill in the blank is **“doused.”**

Jacob raised the bucket of water, ready to jump out and **douse** his sister as soon as she walked by.
