The Karkonites at the receiving sight were a bit startled when the human appeared as they were not expecting anyway else; however, once they noticed the Yardrat with him they realized where he had come from.  The Karkonite that had been grabbed struggled for just a moment before noticing everyone else had stopped panicking.  He settled down and turned to look at the human.

"Oh, you must be reinforcements!  Thank goodness I was afraid when had been suddenly attacked from behind for a moment!  Anyway, the others have already gone off to Sunshi Village to fight the slavers!  Our communications have been jammed so that explains why no information about the enemy has gotten out before now.  Oh right you just got here, they went that way!"  The Karkonite quickly pointed Spyder in the village's direction.

There was something off about the way the machines acted, it appeared that as long as the Karkonites were alive that was all that matter with the rough way they handled things.  With how many had appeared at once it was pretty obvious why none of the even smaller villages had managed to have anyone escape, the riders had radar equipped and communication jamming so escape by the rather low technology level of their opponents was nearly impossible, as long as there weren't too many to capture at once.  The riders themselves were not especially strong by a martial artists standards, but they were robust and certainly much stronger than most planet's general population, but it was their equipment that really set them a step above.

Three more bikes were loaded up and sped off toward the cliff side as quickly as possible, the riders themselves stayed behind to run interference and attempt to capture more natives.  Brackus crackled with annoyance as he watched the bikes drive off with their captives, unfortunately he had no good way to stop them without potentially killing their new captives, so there was only one option left.  He flew after the closest bike, raised a small gun and shot at the bike's back.  Instead of a bullet, a small tracker glued itself to the bumper as the bike sped off, as they were machines the best way to keep track of the bike would be electronically, as ki would be no good as the Karkonites' levels were too low to effectively trace.

He returned to the battlefield and started to buzz around the riders, striking out with his sword when he got in range.  He dove down on one and quickly lobbed off its head, then turned and fired a ki blast into the chest of another, downing it instantly as it failed to guard in time.  A third managed to stick him with a baton, causing him to careen out of control and smash into the ground, the electric impulse causing his muscles to spasm.

"Currsssed machine."  He hissed as the rider tried to strike him again with the baton but he managed to grab its arm, holding it in place while he ran it through with his sword.  "We should finish this up as quickly as possible so we can chase after those vehicles."
