The water dribbled down to the floor, wich in turn, with the laws of physics, when Togo stood up quickly, he slipped backwards, and toppled onto Merrylan, who in turn toppled several chairs, lnocking off their occupants..who in turn started hacking eachother repeatedly.
As the brawl began on the tavern, Togo got up, wiping himself.
"A-a-a-Alice?" stuttered Togo nervously."What's the matter?"

Alice did not notice the chaos going on around them, she was staring at some middle space behind the bar, until the sound of Togo's voice broke the spell, and she looked around to him
"N-n-nothing," she stuttered, trying to calm herself down, "I-I will b-b-be fine, T-togo,"
The barman began to pick up the pieces of the broken glass on the bar
"Ow," he yelled out in pain as he cut his hand on a piece of glass, and began to bleed
Alice froze where she stood, both the smell and the sight of the blood made her stomach begin to churn, but something else also happened that had never happened to Alice before
The blood had smelled good
Confused and feeling sick, Alice turned and ran out of the bar, she turned into the nearest alleyway, and let herself be sick in the nearest trash can

Dirkly was hiding under a table, trying to avoid the brawl going on around him. It took him several minutes to realize this probably wasn't the reaction a watchman was supposed to have.
He nervously peeked his head out from under the table "Er- It's about time we get going, don't you think?" he shouts over the noise.

Togo, confused by the sudden absence of Alice, looked around at Dirkly.
"Er.." he began, but hurriedly ducked when a chair was sent hurtling across the room.
Merrylan was at the doorway, making frantic signals.
"Yes! Lets get out of here!" yelled Togo
Merrylan and the watchmen stood by the Ankh Morpork docks. It was a foggy evening, and the dark shapes of the ships loomed by the docks.
In front of them stood a swaying drunkard..
"Soo..ve have a deal?" enquired Merrylan, extending a bony hand.
"wstfgl.." muttered the drunk sailor. "Ship's y'rs."
Merrylan beamed.
"Heres our end of ze deal zen!" he boomed cheerfully, revealing a misty bottle.
The sailor eyed it hungrily.
"Lets check it out zen?" said Merrylan. He looked around."Anyvunn seen Togo?"
Togo found Alice in an alleyway, the pub fight had grazed his bare neck, he was holding a napkin against it.
He put a hand on her shoulder.
"A-alice?" said Togo nervously. A drop of blood dropped from his bleeding neck.

Alice shuddered at the touch of someone's hand on her shoulder. She spun around, relieved to find that it was only Togo. Her sense of relief immediately disappeared when the strong scent of blood once again stung her nostrils, and the sight of the darkening napkin being held on Togo's neck entered her vision
The bitter sweet smell of his blood both repulsed her and appealed to her. She had never felt this way, before. The very idea of sucking someone's blood was always enough to make her stomach churn. This new conflict of disgust and lust for it both confused and terrified her. The only thing she could do was turn around and be sick in the garbage can again
When her stomach was empty, Alice slowly sank down to her knees. She stayed, unmoving, on the cold cobblestones until she felt she could control herself, and Togo's blood had clotted. Her breathless panting slowed down as the world refocused, and let out a heavy, shuddering breath
"I'm sorry, Togo," she mumbled, knowing he would not understand what she was apologizing for

Togo's brow wrinkled. He sat down next to her.
"For what?" he said. He dabs his neck again, still bleeding slightly."Is it the blood? I get faintly around blood too..thank god I don't know many vampires, eh?" He gave a brief smile.
The watchmen entered the ship..it was small and stuffy inside. There lay only 4 hammocks in the cabin.
Merrylan looked nervously at the rest of the watchmen..
"Er..I suppose I'll sleep upside down, being a vampire..er...Runt can sleep in the corner..Who vill take ze hammocks?"

Dirkly, tried to ignore the casual confession but couldn't. It wasn't all that huge a surprise but that didn't mean he wasn't completely terrified.
After a few dreadful moments of coming to terms with his doom he decided he probably couldn't out run a vampire. He'd just await for his inevitable end in a dignified fashion.
"I'll take one. In fact maybe I should lay down for a moment..I'm feeling rather faint.." he said wearily, as he choose a hammock. He looked up blankly as he tried to clear his mind. "I always thought it was in coffins or sumthin like that.."

Alice moaned and clutched her head, praying to Barrucadu to end whatever sick form of vampire hormones was making her lust for Togo's blood as he got closer to her. She did not dare dig her fangs into her lip as she usually did, for fear of drawing her own blood and losing control
It was good he did not know many vampires? she thought. That was fine with Merrylan, but only because he was a black ribboner, and he never seemed to lust for blood, to Alice, anyway. But, she was his girl friend, and she knew if she told him their relationship would only lead to him wearing necklaces of garlic, or sleeping with a wooden stake, or something like that
"It is not just the blood," she mumbled, sadly, "but, it is nothing that I can tell you. I'm sorry, Togo,"
Alice sat in silence for a few moments until she could keep her tears back, and slowly rose to her feet
"Let's go meet up with the others," she mumbled, not even able to meet Togo's gaze

"Jusrst as long as you don't paint me blue and make me wear a kilt." moaned Runt, scratching an ear.
Merrylan gave a concerned look to Dirkly.
"Oh, my yes. Coffins..vhat I vouldn't givve for a good coffin, oy...but, ve do have ze ability to sleep upside down lad, so we get an extra hammock technically." He winked."I suppose vhun for You, vhun for Orcakeline, vhun for Alice and vhun for Togo..zere! Prrrroblem solved!" He beckoned the drunken sailor over."Ve should set sail now."
Togo and Alice ran through the swarming crowds of pestilent Morpork, stuttering apologies and politely shoving their way through the crowd.
The reached the rocking ship.
"The Prid of Ankh Morpork?" said Togo, and shrugged. They went aboard.

Alice stepped into the dusty cabin with Togo, and looked around at the assembled watchmen. She saw Merrylan and sidled closer to him
"I need to talk to you, later," she whispered, hoping that Togo could not hear her, "it's important,"
She stayed closer to Merrylan than was usual, but she was desperate and did not know what to do

Fennuth relaxed a bit as he lay on the hammock, if Merrylan wanted to drink his blood he'd of done it by now. He felt safe, at least for now.
He wondered about Togo and Alice, he'd suspected both of them too, and since he knew that one was a vampire, did that make it more likely that the others were too? He would've sworn he saw Alice's fangs back at the mended drum.
The scrawny, cowardly, young watchmen turned in his hammock to face away from most of the others. He couldn't stop thinking about vampires! It was really starting to get to him... He'd probably be driven mad... "I'm stuck on a boat with horribly monsters, some tiny blue men, a dwarf, and..that a talkin dog? and a talkin dog" he spoke very faintly in a sing-song voice to himself.

"Talkin' dog? No there's no talking dog here, you must be imagining things, while your lying there, you minght want to give the nice doggie a buiscui-" but Runt was cut off, when Merrylan gave him a sharp kick.
"Shut up." he said Evenly, he turned back to Alice and winked."Meet me in zee brrrrigg in about, say 10 minutesss." he winked at her and grinned.
"Set saaail!" yelled the drunken pirate, and his crew. There was a general hustling about.
Togo left the cabin, oblivious to Merrylan and ALice's conversation, and walked to the edge of the ship. It was still evening so the Ankh Morpork's famous thig fog still occupied the docks, the thick, sludgy water curved around the ship very slowly, making brief sucking noises.
Togo, unwittingly, took a deep breath of the air. After he'd finished throwing up, he continued to look at the view.

Alice blushed, as she usually did when she was talking to Merrylan, but she dismissed it as she was focused on more important things at the moment
"Thank you," she mumbled, gratefully, and went to sit down in a hammock, to settle down
Laying back, she looked over into the hammock next to hers and noticed the new lance constable, he looked as though something was troubling him
"Lance Constable..Dirkly, right?" she mumbled, "is something wrong?"

Dirkly imagined a sensible person would avoid talking to a vampire. He was far past the point of being sensible.
Lance Constable Fennuth turns to Alice weakly "I was expecting a dull boat ride where I'd get to know my coworkers. Then maybe a dragon and a nice maiden once we got to Krull, then we get whats in a box er whatever and then head back. I got more than I bargained for I guess."
He looked her over carefully now. "You're..um.. like Merrylan, aren't you?" he asked her quietly
