Transcript of Containment Breach 13-34 Eyewitness Account Interview
Interviewed: Assistant Researcher Li Huang.
Interviewer: O5- █
Foreword: Temporary Containment Area 17-Gamma’s surveillance functions were completely disabled at 0811. Around 0832, it is estimated that Containment
Breach 13-34 occurred at Temporary Containment Area 17-Gamma. Assistant Researcher Huang was an eyewitness of Containment Breach 13-34 and the immediate aftermath.
** O5- █:** Describe the events leading up to Containment Breach 13-34.
Huang: People flocked to 17-Gamma for safety. The logic was that if it could contain a Keter-class SCP object, then it could protect them. Though communication > with the main Site had been disabled, 17-Gamma was believed to be one of the safest places in Site-17. Basic security had remained uncompromised, and there
were plenty of weapons. At 0823, of course, the attack by—Huang coughs.
Huang: Excuse me. 17-Gamma came under attack. Many Foundation personnel, having…collected SCP objects from Site-17, began to use those objects in order > to repel the attackers.
O5-X: They intentionally breached containment for those objects?
Huang: Not everybody. The explosion had already breached containment for some objects, which were just picked up off the ground.
O5-X: Did you do that?
Huang: No.
O5-X: Please continue.
Huang: The exact details escape me. However, approximately thirty seconds into the firefight, I became aware of somebody using SCP-399 as an enhanced > stunner by producing what I presume to be some sort of pressure shockwave. I suspect unauthorized usage of SCP-914 in order to provide a sufficient power
source.O5-X: Do you know exactly how 17-Gamma’s containment unit was breached?
Huang: No. I didn’t even see it happen. Maybe a stray grenade caused structural damage. But even if I had seen the breach occur, I wouldn’t have understood > the significance. I didn’t know what 17-Gamma was containing. I didn’t have the clearance. I assume that many others were similarly unaware. In the absence of a > chain of command, we simply didn’t know where not to go and what not to do.
O5-X: What happened during Containment Breach 13-34?
Huang: The shockwaves were very loud, which already exacerbated the situation. However, that alone was not enough to cause the destruction associated
with Containment Breach 13-34. I am not entirely certain, but I have my suspicions about what did. A piece of metal debris that resonated with a shockwave in just
the right way, producing a sound quite like a bell…we all know what happened next. When I woke up, SCP-469 had been put back into containment.O5-X: Unfortunate coincidence?
Huang: Maybe. But fifty-two people died in Containment Breach 13-34. If you wish to attribute that to unfortunate coincidence, that’s your decision, sir.
