Solomon accelerated, following the tracks now at the speed of sound. The tracks continued on and on. Soon Solomon saw a rise of hills, except they weren't one of the hills had been cloven in two, a great furrow cut through it, leaving somethin gakin to an impact crater trail.

Solomon thought that there could be some wisdom in taking a little bit of time to plan his approach to the crater. Something powerful enough to cut a hole in the earth like this might still be operational. In fact the sled that he had been following seems to suggest that something was still operational on this ship. Could this be the source of all of those kidnappings? What would aliens want with that many people. The possible answers made Solomon cringe.
Solomon begins to try to remember if he has ever seen anything like this before in the Guard databases or if he has ever heard about this type of thing from any of the other heros on the planet.
Action #1 5 stones in General Knowledge specialty in super hero history to try and remember anything that might be helpful in this situation
Action #2 1 stone in flight to try to move to the nearest cover while he thinks.

Solomon made his way to the only available cover- the remaining hill sections. As he did so he thought and thought, he could remember no situation in which there had been kidnappings like this, and the sled was of no design he had seen before, however the armour, that reminded him, a small amount, of the armour worn by the Amii' invaders- though this was much less bulky and imposing.

The Amii' what would they be doing back? Didn't David destroy them? If what he destroyed was just one of their ships the world is in the greatest danger that it has ever known. I've got to let the Guard know. Speaking into his communicator Solomon leave what may be his last message.
"Legend to base. I may have run into an Amii' scout group. I am moving closer to investigate. Requesting assistance ASAP. Legend out."
Let's see what we've got thought Solomon.
Action #1 6 stones in flight (5 shifted to defense) to slowly and carefully explore the impact trail. Solomon will try to remain behind cover if possible.

Solomon's call went unanswered once more, the team was still out. As he skirted around the imapct crater he found a small blackened ship similar in some ways to the previous Amii' ship, only this was far smaller, perhaps only big enough for thirty or forty. It was in bad shape, large sections of it's hull were missing and it did not appear functional. There were no signs of activity outside of it.

As Solomon stood near the ship all he could think about was David. What would he do in this situation? What could Solomon do? Fortunately this ship was not nearly big enough to pose a real threat to the earth but why would they be kidnapping all of these people? Solomon wouldn't find out anything by standing around and wondering. It was time to face his fears. These creatures were responsible for the death of his father. They would not take another life while Solomon could still draw breath.
Solomon moved toward one of the holes in the hull that would be large enough for him to fit it. It was time to go exploring.
Action #1 1 stone in flight to move towards the ship and through one of the holes in the hull.
Action #2 5 stones in close combat shifted to defense.

As Solomon stepped through the nearest hole in the hull he found himself in a dimly lit, dark-steel coloured metallic corridor. Green lights flickered on and off all the way down the corridor, the doors along the hallway were mostly shut, a few were partially wedged open, but it seemed impossible that anyone was in them what with the tilt of this part of the ship, nearly at a forty-five degree angle. Lining the corridor was a long line of new structures, built with lighter-coloured, Earth metals. Each was a tube of some description, covered with a sickly green plastic. Inside, wired-up and floating in a fluid, were human bodies, twisted into shapes that were not normally seen comfortably for humans.

Solomon looked at the poor souls inside the tubes and resolved that he would free them but he wasn't sure if releasing them would alert the Amii' to his presence. After a few moments to consider his course of action he began to slowly move deeper into the ship doing his best to stay out of sight.
Action #1 3 stones in flight (2 shifted to defense to move throught the ship)
Action #2 3 stones in intelligence to try to stay out of sight and look for the inhabitants of the ship.

As Solomon moved down the corridor, bathed in the green glow he heard the sound of clanking footsteps coming up the hallway towards him, judging by the sounds they would round the corner in a moment, and then, even at this forty-five degree angle he would be in combat with them.

Solomon's heart began to beat fast and his breathing quickened. What should he do? It appeared that a confrontation was nearly inevitable. It appears that he has the element of surprise for the moment could he use that to his advantage? He would have to. How many of them could there be? Sounded like maybe just a couple. Solomon crouches low to the ground and prepares to surprise his uniformed hosts.
Action #1 12 stones in close combat split into two attacks of 6 stones each on who ever comes around the corner as long as it looks alien.

The sounds got louder and louder, and then a moment later two lithe figures, almost identical to the two who had kidnapped the man rounded the corner. Without wasting a second Solomon swung at them, slamming his fists into the sides of their heads. The two helmets clunked together, but the two Amii remained standing.

OOC: Does it appear to Solomon that the figure took any damage or are they pretty much unaffected by the attack?

OOC: Its hard to say, they're wearing powered armour, however it's likely they have been , the helmets do appear a little damaged.

Well that was disappointing, thought Solomon. I better finish these two quick before they let their superiors know that I'm here.
Action #1 12 stones in close combat to grab one of the Amii' and slam him into the other one.
