In the nick of time, Fred sweeps Joy's feet out from under him. Joy
crashes unceremoniously to the ground, his pickaxe missing the guard's
neck by inches.
Fred leaps onto Joy, struggling to wrench the weapon from his grip. The two roll back and forth on the muddy ground as the the violent rain pelts them. Joy manages to land a vicious blow to Fred's solar plexus, and is about to drive his pickaxe through Fred's chest when Vimes catches him from behind. Joy snarls at him and cranes his neck, trying to bite his face. Fred gathers his breath, staggers back to his feet, and drives his sword into the killer's stomach. Joy pitches forward, his intestines spilling to the ground. He sputters a few unpublishable last words, and dies. Vimes breathes a sigh of relief and exchanges a meaningful glance with Fred. "Go," he breathes.
