Sari evenly returns their stare with narrowed eyes of her own, and its all to apparent she doesn't quite see eye to eye about how he wants to handle things. Heck, its probably clear enough that she thinks what they inadvertently did to it was a well deserved happy accident by her actions and attitude, so them trying to no doubt undo that punishment and take away her right to give one of her very own to it was not well received.

Then her gaze drifts to the bloodied Sword in his grip. She takes a good long look at it, a for a second it appears that she was having second thoughts about her opposition towards its wielder, before she suddenly scowls at it and then them in quick succession, and once more firmly shakes her head, and curtly turns her back on him, preparing herself to swiftly enact her own justice on the finned fiend....or perhaps being struck down herself by Nathan.  No, no, she will not be cowed or swayed on this matter, not even if the boy tries to enforce his will and authority on her with that damn Artifact of his. The life reaping they inflicted upon her adviser was far too great of a crime for her to overlook or let others pass judgement on in her place, so she will have her vengeance upon it, or force them to do unto her what they did to it and take the full burden, responsibility, and her future grudge for what happened.....

Nathan tries a more subtle approach to get through to her instead of issuing a direct threat.  "You may bear Sarimanok's name, but that does not mean you need to be the heavy handed tyrant he became.  That's not who he was originally.  Strike at Lumineon, and I'll have no choice but to stop you myself.  I do not wish to do so, but I will.  A tyrant is not looked upon kindly by those they rule, and I am almost certain Terra will have his own concerns as well."

Nathan's faster, especially after she used that Curse, and the Sword makes her increased Defense irrelevant if Nathan chooses to use it.  Sari's unlikely to kill Lumineon before he can subdue her.  Nathan raises the Sword, preparing to carefully strike if Sari does not relent, and a hand goes to one of the pokeballs on his belt as well...

He will not let Sari kill this Lumineon, and he's going to do so without shedding any further blood unnecessarily.
