He didn't have to wait long for Sol to act, picking up some strange stirrings in the air, which, for some reason, reminded the demon of a cooler fan. Honestly, this wasn't what he expected at all, and somewhat perplexed, Ido continued to 'listen' to the motions of the air, raising his head to expose a patch of uncovered fur hidden beneath the chin - only to turn to a backwards dash the next moment. The mage charged at straight his opponent, despite there being an obstacle inbetween, and having seen how powerful his magic could be, Ido were right to assume that the makeshift cover was about to be busted and pull away from it.
However, perhaps unbeknowst to Sol, his sword wouldn't cut through the boulder in just one stroke. Adding sawblades, no matter how miniature, was a foolish decision: both creating great amounts of friction and jerking the blade around, they would rapidly dissapate all of the blade's kinetic energy and bring it to a screeching halt, leaving his weapon stuck. This could be a good opportunity to strike, but Ido had nowhere to hurry - the chances he would actualy hit Sol were too low to bother. Instead, he concentrated on increasing his supplies of Kzich, gathering all of it into one large sphere again.
As it flowed into existance, Ido made a few more preparations, tearing up the jacket to expose his chest, Ido let the fur there pick up the air's movements unhidered by clothing, slightly heighteneing his tactile senses, and then, took two grenades from his belt - one flashbang, one smoke. As soon as Sol would be within line of sight, he would try to blind him, while setting up a smokescreen behind the windmage to hide them both from the gunner's sight. This way, even if he opened blind fire, he would risk hitting them both; wether he would shoot or not would let Ido know if he really had any agreement with Sol.
