( the startled noise from four is the most human sound he's ever made in front of dante, probably. he's light, enough so that the force with which dante yanks him forward and out of the car makes his head spin tenfold and not just from the flip. maybe some of the bloodloss catches up to him too, but he doesn't factor that in just yet. vaguely he's aware of their last pursuer going up in flames, which is convenient now that they too are without a car and four doesn't feel like he can run very fast if at all.
in fact, he's gone momentarily slack in dante's hold, trying to reorient himself with not much success, incredibly dizzy. his words come out softly even so, on the threshold of gasps. blood has completely soaked through the fabric he tied around his upper arm and between that and the gash across his face, the smell of it is overwhelming. the only thing that competes is the smoke from the fire. )
