"Out of the question!" Natalia's prim voice rang out across the distance from where she knelt next to Tear. Her eyes were locked firmly on Yuri as she stood, shouldering her bow. "Unless you have the ability to fly or teleport, you'll just be adding to the list of people we need to recover. There are better ways of finding them. That globe in the lab, does it not reveal our locations?" She turned her head to see if anyone else could confirm this. "It could be some sort of teleportation."

Her head turned to examine the Black Crystal with open suspicion. "Besides, I don't trust that...thing. What if it's set to explode and kill us all where we stand in one last act of spite? We need to leave, regroup, and make a new plan. Help us escort the injured back to the Enterprise."

Despite the firmness of her command, she meant no ill will toward Yuri. He'd been a good friend to her almost from day one. She trusted him. And she would not see him lost so easily.
