Iskierka, for her part, doesn't even notice that Gary's injured. Not so much because it doesn't matter to her, but because she used to the sorts of battles where stopping to mend an injury could very cost them the turn of the tide. That and it's not usually her place to see to the aviators flying with her. There are doctors for that sort of thing, when they make it back to the ground; what aviators do until then is largely a mystery to her.

She does, at least, notice Haruto's yell, but that's all but instinctive. You notice people yelling on the battlefield because that's about the only way to be heard over anything else. It's just that it's not orders to do something (or not do something) and so she puts it out of her mind.

Instead, what she registers is the way Haruto is advancing on it with a knife and then Gary's making his own strike. It's not much but it's enough. Enough that Iskierka's absolutely certain that they can manage this. She'll let Haruto have the finishing blow if he wants it, but even so, she's approaching from the same side as before, slow and steady this time. And if no one else decides to do anything, as soon as she gets close enough her claws lash out and strike deep - not a killing blow, but very definitely a crippling one.
