A new purpose

[Lolipop12]

A month had passed since the arrival on Planet Gammu and with no activity. By now, where the unit landed, there was no trace from its passage. The vessels were completely covered by snow and ice. Snowstorms were in rendezvous and it caused snowfall all over the area where it landed at the beginning of the month. The cold temperature froze the surface of the land, turning the snow into ice and the same process continued over and over. The weight of the snow was heavy enough to keep the artificial intelligence stuck. Only if being discovered by another one of its kind or by a human will be the unique way to get out.

The unit was not aware of its surroundings. The compression caused by the weight of the snow and ice compressed its body, its alloy was deformed, causing damaged on some hardware. The core and the memory storage were safe fortunately. But servomotors were completely crushed. In the possibility Unit-9467F wakes up, it could not do much than simply stay still or simply try to activate a distress call. Of course, the call itself wouldn’t reach long distances all because the unit was not on a ship or connected to a communication relay.

A sudden unknown signal forced the unit to wake up. Compressed by the ice and the snow, the unit was unable to move. It needed to get out of this natural trap. The solution taken was only to emit a signal with coordinates of its location. The signal was weak, but strong enough to let someone in orbit reading the signal.
