This is Khrenta writing, Bob's memories are degrading quickly probably due to his head being hit that hard, i will of course continue taking care of him as I'm literally all around him. Also as I have access to every system in this tank I discovered it has a replicator which uses a lot of energy due to energy to mater conversion, thankfully it also has a fusion reactor which pumps hydrogen from water vapor in the air. This tank was a really good gift for us as I remember that usual tanks don't have most of these things.
An other waves of SoE soldiers has come but I will not let anyone hurt Bob so I killed them all quickly. I don't know why they keep coming.
It's been a year since we went inside the tank, there is no more contact with locals and only SoE are in contact but I'm not willing to communicate with them.
A few more years have passed and the KCG responded that they will send help as soon as possible. All of this due to light lag but it's what we have to live with. They haven't stopped trying and I think I killed more in this form than when bob died.
Bob has lost the ability to talk, I'm really worried about what will happen, it saddens me that his vision wasn't 100% accurate as he said that I said that we had been married for a billion years.
I traveled so much as I kept moving that I saw snow through my sensors, I told it to Bob bu he doesn't seem to be able to understand me so I put what I saw on a screen and he seemed rejoiced and rushed out the tank and for some reason tasted it but at least he is happy.
Today Bob rushed out the tank and didn't came back so I sent drones to look for him but I didn't find him I will keep looking for him.
