Faustina jumped off his back when the lightning birds converged on him. He saw her stumble and he moved to support her. He stood below as Denen launched into the air, her winds flapping sharply. He watched as she fought, but his eyes darted around to the other birds as they neared him, but flew upwards towards the other ninja. One came straight for them and with a quick flick of his wrist a kunai was pulled from a holster and found it's way between the offending creature's eyes. It fell at his feet writhing and sparking with electricity.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Donta," she called. "If it's still possible, hiding might be a good option after all. Otherwise we will be here for hours."</span><br/><br/>Donta nodded and swept Faustina off her feet into his arms, his pink wings stretching wide to grasp air. He too lifted up and he shot towards Denen, dodging more attacks and diving birds. As he flew, he muttered a quiet spell under the screeching of the birds around him. As he reached Drenen, he kicked a diving bird away that was aimed for her back and winced as he felt the electricity numb his foot and lower leg, but at the same time, his focus did not waver, completing his spell and grabbing Denen around the waist.<br/><br/>"Phantom, I invoke thy power. INVIZ!" he yelled. A ghostly image of a specter appeared in a cloud of smoke that loomed menacingly over them as they hovered in the air for a moment, its outstretched arms embracing them.<br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://images.wikia.com/finalfantasy/images/7/77/Phantom_ffx-2.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>The world around them seemed to shimmer for a moment then color was lost from around them. Donta carried Denen and Faustina in each arm as he drifted quietly to the ground and landed in a rather open area gently putting them down but being sure to keep a hand on each of their backs. He gave both a cautious look and hissed a quiet, "Shhh."<br/><br/>The lightning birds above became confused and circled, screeching and sparking as two neared each other. Some swooped dangerously close, but Donta remained still and gripped the girl's shoulders to keep them still. His gaze fixed on the air above them. They seemed to be in clear sight, with no cover to obscure their sight, but they didn't see them at all.<br/><br/>They waited, unmoving until they screeched in frustration, then flew off into the trees. Donta waited for five more minutes until he was sure he heard silence, then let go of their shoulders. As he did, the color of their clothing suddenly vanished as they rejoined the world of normal sight, himself remaining invisible.<br/><br/>"That was close." he said, then noticed everything was still grey to him, "Phantom, you can stop now." He heard a sigh in his head and he reappeared before them in a shimmer at first then became solid, "Yeah, that trick comes in handy sometimes. You two alright?"
