Slipfast

adj.

longing to disappear completely; to melt into a crowd and become invisible, so you can take in the world without having to take part in it—free to wander through conversations without ever leaving footprints, free to dive deep into things without worrying about making a splash.

From slip, to move or fly away in secret + fast, fortified against attack.
