Scheme

"So she is still alive, anything else?"

Looking up at the ceiling the old man began talking again but toward nobody.

"If it gets enough blood and time it can fully recover, if it was an adult female like you claim then it could be hundreds of years old."

"So it is old and can recover, well that is interesting. The men that dropped it down the well didn't mention it dying from the sun but from the drop, were they wrong?"

"Yes, vampires don't die that easily. It is still alive but cut apart and bones smashed, it knows it is hopeless to do anything."

Drinking my drink, I think about everything he said. I guess it is interesting information, very interesting information. I sip my drink for ten minutes, I think I got a bad idea.

Leaving the bar, I begin walking toward the docks. Walking to the docks I walk into the storage building, the store inside is my goal. Walking in the store is side is empty with a 20 some guy drinking booze behind the counter.

"Hello, I need a rope to measure water depth."

"Well we got some in stock, just not high quality stuff."

"How far do they go?"

"Around 70 meters, we don't carry bigger sizes without you placing a order."

"I will take your cheapest one then."

Struggling to carry the damn rope I made it to a sewer entrance, throwing it down and in I close it behind me and began the long pull toward my goal.

I spent my entire stash on this rope, I am betting my future on my idiotic scheme!

Hearing carriages go by on top, I continue to push the damn rope in a dark tunnel. My only way to navigate is through sheer experience, and I make it to my goal.
