Having the ability to fly will knock two days off the journey! Hurray!

The barrier would block any abilities that try to go through it, so Todoroki would at least need to put an arm inside the room before attempting, despite the bear's claw being there immediately. (The barrier is made to block magic and abilities, but not living things or items)

Will they take the risk to step close to the bear or is there a plan that would help push the bear further away?
