"This is very bad" sighed Illya, as she had to try avoiding the lightning. If she put swords between herself and the lightning, it would be no good, for she would just be wasting her time by blocking her route of advance. But getting hit wasn't worth it, because that would hurt her.

That left only one alternative - counter the lightning with hard magic that would collide head on with it. And so Illya swiped her sword, and a wave of light was fired from the blade, flying straight for the lightning. It wasn't meant to kill anything, just to equal the lightning and cancel it out, so Illya could buy herself breathing time.

That, and Illya was using the time to change from her sword to her bow.
