Two food types are placed inside of SCP-|||||||’s containment at a time when feeding the subject. The results are below.

Test one

Items: One pile of pan-fried steak equal in weight to a cow. A cow.

Results: Subject ate both the pile and the cow.

Test two

Items: a pile of chicken nuggets from [REDACTED] fast food restaurant weighing equal to an average human male. One group of chickens, also weighing equal to an average human male.

Results: Subject ate the chickens, and looked disgusted with the nugget pile.

Test three

Items: [REDACTED]

Results: Never again. That was disgusting to watch.

Test four

Items: A D-Class with culinary experience and enough supplies to feed SCP-|||||| any dishes of the D-Class’s choosing.

Results: Subject ate until the D-Class ran out of food, then allowed the D-Class to leave. It refused to allow the cooking supplies to be removed, and has moved them into a corner of its containment cell. More than likely a sign it wants more.

Conclusion: SCP-|||||| is capable of associating humans with a supply of food and deciding not to eat them if said human is providing meals that it enjoys. Also, apparently [REDACTED] chicken nuggets are unfit for even its consumption (A being I have personally watched eat a metal table)

It hasn’t left its shadow in weeks. The food is piling up. It hasn’t even tried to break containment. We see movement when personnel are introduced to its containment, but it doesn’t try anything. It just watches. We did a test and had purposefully had D-class set up the floodlights at an unsafe distance. It didn’t care. It has been making odd noises. Soft whines, chitters. Like it’s in pain. But, we know it has hyper-regeneration, and that it doesn’t feel any physical pain. I mean, I’ve personally watched it chew off its own leg because it had an itch without even a flinch. There’s something wrong with it, and that is a terrifying thought. I’m going in, despite orders against it. It hasn’t come for daily communication. We haven’t used the set up for it in so long. More to come.

Date:|||||/12/|||||||||

We brought in all kinds of doctors, each of the foundation staff. Some refused to approach it until after I approached myself. The lights in its containment have all been turned off for its comfort. We think we’ve figured out what is wrong. We’ll be releasing SCP-999 into its containment once again shortly. Hold.

The test was... inconclusive. SCP-999 definitely could tell something was wrong. It tried so hard. SCP-999 is showing signs of exhaustion and refuses to be taken from SCP-||||||’s containment cell. |||||| appears to be suffering from a severe case of depression. One that 999 seems to be incapable of treating. This is upsetting for 999, and unsettling for the foundation. This could mean the mental condition affecting ||||||| could be anomalous. 999 will be allowed to stay in its cell until further notice, or until it decides to leave itself. I am going to be up for a while longer taking care of paperwork, and checking on ||||||. We are unsure what we can do, but [The rest of the file has been expunged]

A file written by Dr. Taylor following a site-wide containment failure on 04/10/|||||||

Date:  04/15/|||||||

Site: ||||

File No.: 11319

Written by: Dr. [Redacted] Taylor

This report is being written as SCP-|||||||| is being re-contained. Those of the electrician division still alive are repairing the site’s electrical grid at this very moment. We are currently investigating the cause of the electrical failure that lead to the breach in the first place. The rest of this file will be used to provide a transcript of the events leading up to the incident. Begin Transcript Routine repairs of the lighting system in SCP-||||||||’s containment cell began. A set of two (2) rows of the full-spectrum lighting had malfunctioned and were being replaced when the entire site’s electrical system failed. This included the back-up generators used to power the containment locations that are electrically dependent and pose a high risk of casualties if a failure occurs. This fact leads me to believe that this event was anomalous in origins and worthy of further investigation.

Within moments of the failure, SCP-|||||||| emerged from the darkness and killed all personnel within its cell. The SCP then proceeded to explore the site. So long as the personnel did not directly interact with |||||||| they were left alone. MTF, however, caused the subject to destroy a portion of Wing Alpha due to the use of flash grenades and full-spectrum, though moronically weak, flashlights causing irritation to it. It was almost as if the subject were giving itself a tour of the facility until then. Once MTF became involved, though, any living thing within ||||||||’s line of sight was treated as hostile and immediately attacked. We are down 94 staff members, and those are only those that have been found deceased. Some may still be hiding, or perhaps captured by the subject. 

Experiment Director: Dr. Bezruk

Date: ||||||||||||

Experiment Subjects: SCP-||||||| and SCP-999

Foreword:

Dr. Taylor is on a mandatory sabbatical due to insubordination during the request (or, as Bezruk put it, ‘demand’) of performing this test and, while this test has been approved, Taylor is being punished by not being allowed to be involved.

Begin log:

After Bezruk is briefed on both the containment procedures and the experimentation request Taylor outlined, a collection of D-Class and personnel are gathered in preparation.

two D-Class are tasked with setting up the lighting to avoid a containment breach due to the containment cell needing to be open for easy extraction of SCP-999 in case of emergencies. Preemptively, exterior containment measures are already in place in case ||||||| leaves its cell.

999 is released into |||||||’s cell. It appears confused. More than likely that was due to the lack of anyone within the cell. ||||||| is still within its sleeping space, though soon leaves to show itself. 999, while momentarily startled by |||||||’s sudden appearance, soon settles down and begins to approach. ||||||| is visibly agitated by 999 being within its cell. It moves to swipe 999 with its fore-claws once 999 is within range. 999, of course, is unharmed by the action and instead envolopes |||||||’s claws. ||||||| hisses and growls, gnashing its teeth against its own limb in an attempt to sever it. Halfway through, though, 999 begins to apply its anomalous properties by nuzzling its pseudopods against |||||||. ||||||| freezes in place, then immediately sits down. All violent action ceases and ||||||| begins releasing sounds which can only be described as ‘content’. Once ||||||| appears fully calm, two D-Class are sent into |||||||’s cell. They are instructed to attempt physical contact with |||||||. |||||||, upon being ‘pet’ as D-28647 put it, leans much like a dog into the touch. 999 continues to nuzzle ||||||| and soon has climbed onto the subject’s neck.

Conclusion:

This test has been a total success and this log is ending here. 999 will be removed and ||||||| is to be given more space to sleep.

Addendum (audio log made by Dr. Bezruk):

That son of a bitch! I am never working with that bastard again. I went to remove 999 from its cell. Upon removing the SCP, ||||||| BIT ME. Thankfully, the medical team on standby were able to remove me and 999 from its containment and it didn’t attempt escape. Little [DATA EXPUNGED] took my arms.

Addendum two (2) (written by Dr. Taylor):

Upon confirmation of the counsel’s approval of the request and upon receiving the equipment requested, set up has begun and currently we are working on replacing a monitor broken by the subject. It appears, however, to now understand that it is not a living being and will more than likely not lash out again at it.

H---o?

Hello, can you hear me?

Good, the comms are functioning again.

This is Commander Farzaneh Pollard Sadiq broadcasting from Exploratory Vessel XR-59308. We are roughly [REDACTED] minutes away from the destination.

The devices have been armed, and we are readying deployment of the -static-.

We should be able to see the targe-- 

[A second voice, identified as Mission Specialist Leos]

Leos: What in the flying fuck is that?

Sadiq: What is what? What do you see, Leos?

Leos: It’s more like.. What I don’t see. There’s no stars over there... Other than.. That one.

[Supposedly, Leos is pointing out the ‘there’ and ‘that one’ in question to Commander Sadiq]

EXPERIMENTATION LOG

Experiment: Attempted eradication of the anomalous being which had been spotted a year prior near MACS J1149+2223 Lensed Star 1. 

Experiment head scientist: Dr. [REDACTED] Taylor

Experiment procedures:

A spacecraft had been dispatched to intercept the anomaly and deliver multiple singularity devices into the area around it. These would, hypothetically, create multiple non-anomalous black holes around the entity and pull it inside out to collapse in on itself. Tests upon other singularities have been considered a success.

Experiment results:

I nearly died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital!

My name is Rita Ann Reimer. I am 68 years old and live in Annapolis, Maryland.

I had my first heart attack in October 2008. By June 2009, I had suffered a Code Blue and had 10 stents and a defibrillator.

I was then relatively stable for several years, but starting in June 2013 I had a series of increasingly serious heart episodes. On April 7, 2015, I had a heart attack accompanied by severe respiratory distress and nearly died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.

All this time I had been told that my arteries were too narrow for bypass surgery. This was not good news as my arteries were over 90 percent blocked.  But this was about to change!

I have been a Baltimore Orioles season ticket holder for 36 seasons. On Memorial Day, May 25, 2015, I went to an Orioles game and suffered another heart attack right outside Camden Yards. The ambulance took me to the University of Maryland Medical Center, which is right next to the stadium. It was my sixth hospital in eight months, in three states.

First, I would like to thank the Emergency Room staff not just for their expert care, but for their kind and reassuring manner. Having your defibrillator fire repeatedly is painful and scary. Unlike another recent hospital experience, they were very sympathetic and even helped me breathe my way through several potential firings.

But mostly, I would like to thank cardiac surgeon Dr. Bradley Taylor, who after examining my records said he thought I was a good candidate for bypass surgery. I admit that at first I was politely dubious, having been told for years that that this was not an option. But given my 90 percent blockage, I felt that I had no choice. And it turned out he was right!

I had a successful triple bypass on June 5. On June 10 they also replaced my six-year-old defibrillator with a newer model that is supposed to last for 11 years. Two months later, I have been cleared to drive and have started a cardio rehab program at my local hospital. While I still have a ways to go, I’m definitely stronger and have more energy. Thank you, Dr. Taylor!
