Awakening AI

[darkwind]

Planet Toledo was once the home of the Order, surviving attack during the Nomad War, the planet didn't survive against human betrayal. In 818 AS, the Nomads launched a full-scale invasion, while The Order was under attack by Core forces. Against all odds, they were able to stand on equal ground against invaders, but a surprise attack of nomad bombardments destroyed their battleship and planetary defenses.

The nomads targeted not only defenses, but they also targeted crucial lines of the planet, turning its surfaces to magma flowing everywhere, killing the remaining population under bombardment, lava and changed atmosphere.

Order, Core, Nomads.... all perished in the battle... and one recon drone coming from Gammu AI sector to investigate and record what's happening. The drone was not lucky, as one of the shots firing around flew too close to his power generating systems, disabling them and turning the drone in yet another lifeless body floating around.

Before shutting down entirely, it was able to proceed with one last command...
$: Activate Nanobot #0
$: Activate Na... ]^C[^R

>: Nanobot #0 is starting to load
>: Ship power generator checking.... failure
>: Error... not sufficient energy to boot the system

>: Reboot...
>: Ship power generator checking... failure
>: Error... not sufficient energy to boot the system
>: Turning on an energy-saving mod
>: Deploying solar panels to gather energy

Many years passed since this moment. One drone was not enough for quick repairs, and its energy reserves were not sufficient to do a lot of work, as much more time it has to be gathering energy from a very dim star, which solar rays were not able to penetrate Nebula cloud surrounding the planet with high efficiency

it took 8 years for one repair nanobot without energy supplies to accomplish its task to some degree until in one faithful day it succeded in its efforts.
>: Trying to boot power generator... Success.
>: Checking power generator levels ... 10% of normal energy regeneration is available.
>: Activating main personality matrix

Awoken, but crippled. Eight years of being exposed to radiation and time without proper maintenance in the graveyard around the planet were not merciful to the drone body. Having barely sufficient generating power now, it is capable to fly at a very slow speed, to activate more nanobots if needed, but no shields or guns to use.

Leaving the graveyard can be fatal, as anyone could destroy it without any effort. As drone even needed to enter hibernation every time when foreign lifeforms were patrolling nearby, not risking to draw their attention.

Moving through the debris when no one is around, the solution was found. One of the Order vessels, cruiser class "Resheph" recon ship named "Amounet", was motionless and abandoned at a different corner of the battlefield from the past.

Activating all remaining nanobots the choice was made to board, repair and assimilate this ship, transferring consciousness inside of it. The ship appeared to be in a semi-good condition, most of the damage was dealt by EMP guns, frying its circuitry, computer controls, and energy distribution.

After the transfer being done. The new central processing unit of the ship started to take the remaining systems under its control. While nanobots repaired damaged systems. Storage room of the cruiser nanobots and repair materials were found, the nanobots circuitry was also fried by EMP blasts, but their resources for ship repairment remained to be in condition for usage.

All repairs were accomplished. The cruiser provided to Order defense was one of the best from the best. Inventorying its equipment showed next weaponry to be installed
[1] Light Mortar
[2] Cruiser Blaster Turret
[2] Cruiser Pulse Cannon
[7] Order Cruiser Turret

While other equipment showed why it was named "Amounet" which means "The Hidden One". The installed cloaking device with multiple scrambling systems allows for the ship to enter any battlefield unseen and to exit in the same way.

The only thing remains to restore its supplies and ammunition to its fullest degree, for the ship once again to be flying among stars and showing to its enemies Order supremacy in ship construction.
