I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a kite' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'alien not i with another alien rushes' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'alien' could be 'et' (extra terrestrial) and 'et' is present in the answer.
'i' could be 'a' and 'a' is located in the answer.
'another' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to get' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for elanet that I've seen before include "BIRD" , "kite" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
