Nadine has no choice but to withdraw and step back, jaw tight and eyes wide with sudden fear. The curse slips out without thought, low and quick. Viktor needs to lie still, he needs to stop, he's going to bleed out...
But all manner of things were indeed prepared for, and she knows that now she just needs to stay out of the way. Alucard is quick to act, making it seem simple to take the situation in hand. Out of habit, she finds herself offering a quick little silent prayer that this interruption isn't a prelude of things to come.
And that it doesn't set them back any. Time is of the essence, every second wasted...better not to think about it. This will work, it will go fine.
She's ready to step back in and resume, the moment it's safe.
