[What happens next is the dhampir becomes a wolf. Easier to run and weave and distract the creature in that form and without having to worry about what might happen if one of his bat-form-bats became injured.
Pointedly, the wolf only leads the creature on a chase, making sure it slams itself into a tree.
Then Alucard flees, abusing his superhuman speed. He makes it to the gate only a minute or two after Astarion does, appearing as if nothing has happened at all.
Before announcing himself or explaining that no one can be allowed back in there to the guards, he waits, assuming the other vampire has gotten a head start on that.]
