[Alucard understands the situation, even through the burning agony of it. The whole attack was a two pronged thing, the first meant to weaken and isolate himself, the second to ensure the deed was done out of the way.
His free hand flies to the pocket of his trousers where the car keys are kept, and he has to move. Running is...no. He can't run, not like this. That demands sharper intakes of breath, renders his throat more painful, makes the situation more obvious to those on the street. His eyes though, they're still on Trevor. Trevor and the assailant, who seems too single minded to do anything about the man pinning him down.
Fuck.]
Understood.
[He croaks the word out, then exits the alley. There's a sharp left that he takes, and it is through sheer intent that Alucard wills himself back to where the car is parked, closer to the open air market than the fish monger or even the yarn shop. There's groceries in the car already, and Alucard knows he will be expected to remain in the back with them. He can't drive safely at the moment, after all.]
