((In combat, it is generally good to at least refer to your movements in some kind of proportional relation to your upper limits. As a note, just be aware that even in Natrelmon maximum speed cannot instantly be obtained. It'd also have been wise to consider not going on a direct path unless you have a specific tactic in mind. I will assume given the bonuses from the Wind's typing for moving at maximum speed that you are doing that.))

Shio calmly reacted, ordering for her Hitsuji to place it's globes of Ielle and Indolu about 10 feet in front of it, putting them about thirteen feet of the ground, overlapping the fields so if Kyonshi continued on it's direct frontal path. Additionally, Hitsuji, at mental command, launched two Radiant Stars on Kyonshi's path, positioned so they would just barely clip his wings on each side - making a side route escape difficult. Unless Caelyn was very creative, Kyonshi would likely be diverted off of the frontal path completely, or pigeonholed into it even further. Of course, Shio was already ready to make the movements even more difficult with spells she could easily fling in response to either Caelyn's or Kyonshi's actions.

Although Caelyn and Kyonshi were unaware, Hitsuji's Unyielding Zone (Earth Passive) was directly around it, the sheep remaining firmly in position. It was the other reason that Shio had selected Kohitsuji as her starter. The sheep Natrelmon was very independent and needed very little from her in terms of protecting himself. It synergized with her usual style. What was challenging for Shio was that her spells were not the most effective in this style of combat. At least while the match remained on good terms, she would be restrained from utilizing the full scope of her Gishiki magic.
