Especially since that mass murder will basically only have Apollo's name attached to it.
There's quiet when he rounds the building, no sound save for his own hurried breathing and the shift of his clothing as he looks around wildly for his target... and that's when the attack comes, not from the front but from the side, a hit that completely knocks the wind out of him and slams him into rough stone.
It's almost enough to distract him from the teeth that puncture skin just above his left shoulder. Almost. The only saving grace is that the response to his immediate attempts to fight back -- a fist to his stomach -- keeps him from shattering his pride even further with any sounds of pain. That, and the fact that this is a vampire who's clearly fed recently and thus is far less likely to drain him dry over his audacity in actually chasing the man down.
When the vampire finally loses interest in favor of some other distraction Sasuke's only half-conscious, slumping to the ground and fumbling for his phone. Crawling back is going to have to take a rain-check when the pavement is this accommodating.
