The Signal

In my lifelong search alone flying among the stars, I sought kin not at all my own. My ship, ear and voice called and waited, to no avail. Although regrettably, by my choice, to find another, I did avoid other frequencies on which to tail. But upon a fateful time it came; a bump by mistake, and then the sound of a voice another through static was found. The dial shifted, mistakenly and plain during a fall with none to blame. From the noise came a rough yet fine: "Sirius B, New Castor, Moon Divine". I charted the course, and found plain to see a mere 10 AU, not much time and felt my soul alight with glee. The signal's source was found, a probe sitting in debris all around. Surrounded by signatures unknown and jesting boastful laughter abound. "Lock and load, take everything for your own!" ~
