Prologue

A drone floated in space aimlessly, unresponsive and not heeding the asteroid that it was about to impact-

BONK!

The drone stirred and then shifted it's direction, as if sleeping.

as it changed it's position, a piece of gray rock somehow managed to get into it's 'mouth', or the hole below it's visual receptors.

The mysterious rock got inside it's refining unit and... stayed there as nothing happened.

BONK!

The drone got into another rough contact to it's side with another asteroid.

The impact miraculously turned on the drone's refining unit, then it started processing and refining the mysterious rock inside it.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

______________________________________

An unknown amount of time passed by until the refining unit finally finished it's process.

It automatically sent the refined mass to the storage unit, then it turned itself off after few seconds.

The weird material gained from refining the stone suddenly melted and seeped into storage unit's walls, then the drone glowed with a grey light for a moment, before dimming slowly.

Vrrr...

The drone vibrated quietly and it stirred slowly, showing a sign of waking up.

[Deactivating hibernation-]

Then it stopped, somehow it wiggled, as if shifting in it's sleep, heck, it somehow looked like it snored.

[-canceled.]

Then, like it was enemies for life to them in it's past life, it crashed into another asteroid.

BONK!

This time, it stirred violently, making a sharp turn to the opposite direction, and it's vision receptors flickered.

[Deactivating hibernation...]

Vrrr...

[Hibernation deactivated.]

The drone woke up and it's vision receptors turned on, two lights shined dimly as it looked at the void before it's eyes.

The lights flickered a few times and then brightened up, it turned it's body around, searching for any signs of artificial structures to no avail.

It stayed still for a moment, as if contemplating about the situation, then it closed it's eyes, it vibrated every now and then, as if snoring.

Vrrr...

Vrrr...

[Waiting for command...]

Vrrr...

[Requesting for command...]

Vrrr...

[Command input timed out, pausing system.]

Vrrr...
