Traversing unstable terrain where the laws of physics didn't always apply while being attacked by random enemies was actually something that Pit had experience with, and it hadn't been a [i]pleasant[/i] experience then either. Every minute they spent trying to get around this place was a minute that Goldlewis could be in deep trouble. And not only that - there was this weird feeling that the angel was getting. He caught himself unconsciously rubbing his wings together more than once, trying to wipe off some invisible, grimy, corrosive substance that he wasn't sure was even really there. If being in the Astral Plane was effecting him like this, he was worried about how it was effecting the humans with him. They needed to find Goldlewis as soon as possible and escape. As they came upon the final stretch of the weird, winding path their goal came into view. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"I see him!"[/color] he exclaimed at the same time as the rest of the Seekers would have been laying their eyes on the man as well. It wasn't just Goldlewis though, there was a huge monster facing off against him. It looked like some sort of angry red alien jet engine, with two floating fists and a pair of cannons on each shoulder. Basically a classic monster brute, maybe even a little uglier. Unafraid, Pit sprinted to Goldlewis' defense. The others wasted no time in going on the offensive, but Pit kept his orbitars equipped off a hunch that Enceladus might try and finish off its kidnappee before attempting to engage four new opponents at once. He'd made the right choice when a large volley of fire bolts streaked toward them. The Guardian Orbitars' projected an equally large energy shield, enough to stop the bolts completely. When both the shield and the attack faded, Pit looked back at Midgar's former secretary of defense. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"Sorry we didn't bring your alien,"[/color] he said, not remembering it was supposed to be a secret in the first place. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"Like Midna said, you can take cover until we beat this thing!"[/color] With that the orbitars gave way to the Palutena Bow once more, and Pit began his own assault. Roxas' theory made total sense, so he focused his arrows on whatever body part the other boy was attacking. Most of the time it was an arm, and the angel was especially aggressive with his firing whenever it looked like one of said arms were going to shoot something at one of his team mates. Whether it was bolts or lasers, they hand firing them would be knocked off balance even if only a little, giving the other Seekers an easier time avoiding the attacks. It was when those attacks were turned on him that things got dicey for Pit. The explosive aftermath of Enceladus' moves kept the angel moving even after he dodged a direct attack, and though the heat and debris didn't do much damage it would pile up eventually. That, and ranged weaponry wasn't the only thing Enceladus had going for it. Counting its torso, the Chimera had three battering rams with which to mow the heroes down. It sent one of its arms flying like a rocket, and though the punch missed Pit the force of its impact splintered the ground, sending several pieces off into the abyss - including the one Pit had been standing on. With alarm he started to jump between pieces of debris to make it back to solid ground, or more solid ground anyway. It made him easy pickings for a couple of lasers, but he'd much rather suffer some wounds than be lost adrift in an alternate dimension forever. He tumbled back onto the main platform, picked himself back up and rejoined the fight. He lent his bow to follow up shots, continuing to hammer away at Enceladus. Another punch soared toward him, but Pit met it with a quick strike from the Upperdash Arm. It softened the blow but he still ended up getting thrown back, and his entire arm stung from the burden. [i]Okay, not gonna try that again,[/i] he thought. He did have one more strategy that he was eager to employ. Pit kept an eye on those cannons, whenever it looked like they might fire he would be ready. If he had to run to an ally so be it, but it would be all the better if they turned on him. The was positive that the orbitars' reflect could send the Chimera's cannon fire right back at it, if only he could time it correctly. It was a good thing he'd had a lot of practice with that too, so when things finally lined up he could return the monster's attack to sender.
