SCP Sandbox

SCP #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is kept in a shock-resistant case in the High Value Object Storage vault on Site 71. Any researcher that wishes to experiment with SCP-XXXX must consult with Doctor Xiao beforehand, and is authorized only 2 hours of continuous testing per experiment. Any personnel with a history of psychoactive drug usage are not permitted to handle SCP-XXXX or witness its effects. SCP-XXXX is to be handled by D-class personnel only. One D-class personnel will be designated as SCP-XXXX-2, and is authorized to bypass the monthly D-class turnover until said D-class expires from natural causes.

During any experiment, if any witnessing personnel begin to exhibit signs of fatigue or falls unconscious for any unexplained reason, they are to be terminated immediately, and the experiment halted. A sudden abrupt stop to any processes will kill SCP-XXXX-2; thus, a standby D-class must be ready at all times to assume the position for later experimentation.

Object Description: SCP-XXXX is a sphere that has a radius of 4.0 centimeters and a mass of 1.2 kilograms, composed of porous jadeite. When light is shone directly onto the object, the sphere reflects the light and displays a metal surface. When light is shone through the sphere, the sphere will appear translucent and the air bubbles can be seen. The sphere has several indentations and a few chips on its surface, though the object itself scores higher than a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale.

When SCP-XXXX is picked up by a human (referred to as the subject), SCP-XXXX will glow for approximately 5 seconds, before displaying its anomalous effects. The subject is able to use SCP-XXXX to alter the physical properties of any object within 10 meters of the subject. Test subjects have been recorded to perform the following within the area of effect:

• Shattering a 40 centimeter thick lead wall by converting it into glass, then throwing a rock into the glass;
• Turning a vial of hydrofluoric acid into pure water (which was confirmed later by testing);
• Turning a wooden knife into a steel knife with a hardness similar to S30V, then embedding the knife into a slab of wood;
• Converting a 400-gram pile of flour into a 400-gram pile of high-purity cocaine (product was confiscated and incinerated by security);
• Turning a D-class personnel's hair into copper wire;
• Attempted to turn a pound of lead into diamond, but underwent a [DATA EXPUNGED] event, creating an instantaneous localized vacuum which caused the subject to explode. SCP-XXXX was not damaged in this event, and was cleaned of all bodily fluids. This event occurred before it was determined that users of psychoactive chemicals were not to be used for any further handling or experimentation with SCP-XXXX.

Any objects that are altered retain their new properties, even after leaving the area of effect. The anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX can last up to half an hour, or until the user grows weak and collapses from psychological exhaustion. Tests conducted revealed that certain portions of the cerebrum and the pineal gland have increased periods of activity while the subject is using SCP-XXXX. Tests also reveal that with continual usage of SCP-XXXX, certain areas of the cerebrum begin to decrease in activity until there is no electrical activity present in those areas of the brain, and autopsy results reveal that these parts of the brain appear to have atrophied away, leaving sizeable gaps in the brain matter. The subject is not affected by the loss of brain matter while using SCP-XXXX; any subject that is not using the object or is outside of the area of effect have decreased mental faculties and exhibit behavioral and psychological difficulties, as well as many physiological symptoms. For this reason, it has been determined that one D-class personnel will be designated to handle SCP-XXXX for all experiments, as the decreased mental faculties lead towards greater suggestibility and higher obedience, lessening the chances of rogue events or escape attempts.

When a subject with prior usage of psychoactive substances witnesses SCP-XXXX's effects or is using SCP-XXXX, there is a large chance that SCP-XXXX will perform an action very different to the one that the user is trying to perform, and will often lead to fatal and catastrophic results. It has been theorized that the usage of psychoactive substances lowers the body's tolerance for the energy required to perform any large-scale actions, and will cause a temporary anomaly that is as minor as the subject's limbs spontaneously exploding, to as severe as tearing holes into the fabric of space-time and obliterating everything within its area of effect.

SCP-XXXX was recovered from an undisclosed location in southern Iraq in 2007, after a Foundation strike team traced an attempted ambush back to a cave. The user of SCP-XXXX tried to change the walls of the cave into razors, but underwent an [DATA EXPUNGED] event, bisecting him while also decapitating two strike team members. SCP-XXXX was retrieved and was sent to Site-71 under request of Doctor Xiao, where it is still used for materials testing.

SCP #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept immersed in a solution of mineral spirits in a clear container, which is to be sealed in a triple-locked airtight steel frame. This frame is currently kept in containment storage at Site-71. Any handling of the object itself must be done with tongs, to prevent injury from sharp surfaces. Personnel handling the object must not have any metal or electronic devices on their person, to prevent electronic damage.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a robot model that was constructed from scrap parts and painted over with a silvery enamel paint. The object is shaped as a humanoid, with its limbs being connected to the torso by short springs. Located on the back of its head, on its chest plate, and on its front foot plates are green jadeite crystals that glow in low light conditions. When upright, SCP-XXXX stands at 9.1 centimeters tall.

The object becomes animate when exposed to electromagnetic fields created by electronic devices. When exposed to such fields, SCP-XXXX will proceed to walk over to the device and systematically disassemble it. Using these components, SCP-XXXX will construct a beacon (referred to as SCP-XXXX-2). When a beacon is constructed, SCP-XXXX will begin to walk around SCP-XXXX-2, and will continue to do so until interrupted, or until another electronic item is introduced to the object. At the present time, the function of these beacons are unknown. At the time of this writing, there are currently 24 beacons classified as SCP-XXXX-2.

Examination of this beacon shows that

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-XXXX are to be kept in the site 71 arboretum. At the time of this writing, there are currently 3 instances of SCP-XXXX located within the arboretum, each instance classified as SCP-XXXX-1 through -3. Any personnel working near SCP-XXXX are to wear a hard hat, puncture-resistant gloves and a fall arrest if working in the air. Any injuries are to be reported to the arboretum staff as per standard operating procedure. During the months of March to May, only assigned level 2 personnel are permitted access to the section of the arboretum where SCP-XXXX is contained. Any harvesting of SCP-XXXX is to be done with chainsaws equipped with diamond-coated teeth - use of a non-approved chainsaw will result in injuries and equipment damage.

All items that are obtained from any instance of SCP-XXXX are to be reported to the supervisor on-duty, and an inventory of items maintained. Items are to be kept in a locked safe located in the arboretum, with access restricted to authorized level 3 personnel or higher. Any unique or anomalous items obtained from SCP-XXXX are to be isolated and reported to Dr. Xiao. All personnel will submit to a body search upon leaving SCP-XXXX's containment area. Any personnel caught with items from SCP-XXXX will face appropriate disciplinary action, and will be barred from further work involving SCP-XXXX.

Any instances of SCP-XXXX located in the wild are to be destroyed and all fruit transported to Site 71, with the reason of destruction being a contagious defoliating disease.

Description: SCP-XXXX is an apple tree. The object is approximately 30 meters tall with a diameter of the farthest reaching branches of about 15 meters. During the months of June through March, SCP-XXXX will act like a normal tree, including shedding leaves and "blossoming". SCP-XXXX shows no immunity to temperature extremes and to chemicals, but shows resistance to insect pests and plant diseases.

During the fruiting season

Item No. : SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is stored in a secure case, which is stored away in High Value Object Storage vault at Site 71. Any researcher who wishes to sign out SCP-XXXX for experimentation must consult with Dr. Xiao first. Any D-class bonded to SCP-XXXX must be terminated by the end of the experiment.

Any D-class used for experimentation must not have had any previous contact with any reliquary SCP.

Object Description: SCP-XXXX is a set of steel wings with a supporting back brace. There are six wings in total, with three wings for each side. The top wings and the bottom wings are significantly longer than the center wings, measuring at 1.56 meters from wing root to wingtip. The center wings are 1.05 meters long.

** Item No.:** SCP-XXXX

** Object Classification:** Safe

** Special Containment Procedures: ** At the moment of this writing, there are currently 23 instances of SCP-XXXX in containment, with two activated instances. All inactive instances of SCP-XXXX are to be stored in a electrostatic-protected box in the High Value Object vault at Site-71. The two active instances of SCP-XXXX are to be stored in their own containers in Site-71's primary armory, and can only be signed out to Researcher ██████ and Sergeant █████████. All personnel handling SCP-XXXX are to wear thick gloves and not has any sort of blood discharge. D-class personnel are prohibited from handling SCP-XXXX.

No activation of any instance of SCP-XXXX is to occur at this time.

** Object Description: ** SCP-XXXX is an elongated teardrop-shaped metal object with crystal circuit traces embedded within the object. The object measures 10.72 centimeters from the tip of the object to the other end, with a diameter of 4.55 centimeters at the widest point and a thickness of 0.50 centimeters. Within the circular section of the object is a gel that contains similar circuit traces, and will reform in a span of 2 minutes should the gel be perforated. Research into the chemical composition of the gel is ongoing.

The object exhibits its anomalous effects when exposed to human blood. When the gel is exposed to human blood, the object's circuit traces will light up and the object will levitate in the air for approximately 5 seconds. Once this short time has passed, the object will begin to shear off copies of itself, ranging from 2 instances of the object to quantities numbering over 10,000. The thickness of the resulting copies depend on how many instances are produced - due to the nature of the SCP, it is so far impossible to determine the size of an instance resulting from a large number of copies.

At this stage, SCP-XXXX can perform one of three actions:

• XXXX-1 occurs when the user is severely incapacitated or killed. The object's numerous copies will surround the subject and will impale the subject at all angles. Once the objects' copies are all inside the subject, the numerous copies will spontaneously ignite, engulfing the subject in flames. Once the subject is incinerated, the copies will combine to form the original object, and will deactivate. This is implied to be the reset motion of the object, in order for a new subject to activate and use the object.

• XXXX-2 occurs with roughly 98% of all cases studied at the moment of writing. The object will begin to surround the subject, before forming a set of wings behind the subject. Wing numbers range from 1 to 8 wings. The copies project a field in-between themselves and two copies will embed themselves in the base of the subject's skull. At this point, the subject has full control over the object, and can activate and deactivate the object at will. The object will not recognize any other attempted user until the current subject undergoes XXXX-1 and the object resets itself.

• XXXX-3 occurs with the last 2% of all cases studied. The copies will surround the subject and face the tips outwards. A beam of energy is projected from each copy towards the subject, who undergoes a [DATA EXPUNGED] event which results in the formation of [DATA EXPUNGED] limbs, other significant general mutation and a sharp decrease in mental faculties. Aggression will increase exponentially, and the subject will cease action after approximately two hours of activity, after which the subject will undergo XXXX-1. This is implied to be a rejection mode for when an unsuitable user attempts to activate the object.

I remember playing with my dad's toys when he was young.

Gears and springs and other nifty things.

Those were good times back then. I miss my pa.

I can still recall meeting up with some friends on the 26th of March that year.

He gave me a gun and we went to the local bank.

We got the cash, but the alarms began to go off.

I got scared, and my weapon didn't work, so I tossed it.

It hit the ground and shot my friend in the back of the head. What luck.

I didn't have the strength to even move my legs when the cops finally came…

I've sat in that prison cell for years now, waiting to die.

Until a man, dressed like a Secret Service agent, came up to me with a brown envelope in hand.

He asked me if I wanted to get out of this cell.

I was so enthusiastic that I totally forgot about anything else that he may have mentioned.

I signed my name on the paper, and I was out of the state prison by the next day…

These men, wearing orange suits… they lead me to this room, and strap me down.

They took out a needle, and injected me with something. As soon as they were finished, they left, and left food and drink in the cell.

I got off of the chair, and began to eat. Tasted like simple cafeteria food.

Over the next few days, I began to feel less and less hungry. I asked the mirror what they did to me. They told me to just continue as I normally do.

The men in their orange suits came in again, and left a TV with a remote.

It's been a long while since I've watched TV. I sat down and began to watch the Saturday cartoons again.

The pain set in days later. It felt like a heart attack.

I ran to the window with whatever was left of my strength, and begged them to send help.

The men in the orange suits came back, and began to wheel me to another room.

When I arrived, there were more men in orange suits. One of them began to hook up wires to me, and another one put a mask on me.

At Site 19, accidents can and do happen, and this may result in an emergency. This can be a minor as a simple clogged toilet in the male's washroom, to a breach of a Keter-level SCP. Therefore, it is the responsibility of all employees at Site 19 to review safety and emergency procedures. All station supervisors will be equipped with emergency planning materials in the event of such an occurence.

Fire

In the event of fire, employees are to evacuate the immediate vicinity. Site 19 is equipped with automatic sensors to detect and extinguish fires - however, handheld fire extinguishers are available in the event of system malfunction or system failure.
In the event of a major fire, employees are to evacuate the entire section, if safe to do so. Employees should ensure that the doors behind them are closed - all doors at Site 19 are rated for 90 minutes to continual flame exposure. In the event of being trapped by smoke or flame, employees should proceed to the nearest safe zone and activate the emergency alarm - this will provide a signal for rescue crews to locate you.

Flooding

In the event of a flood, employees are to evacuate the level and proceed to higher levels.

The following was obtained from a firefight with GOC officials on the date of ██/██/████, along with an unknown weapon prototype. The weapon has been sent to Site 19 for further research. Below is a copy of the operating manual that was recovered from the body of the former operator. Only pages of importance are included in this document - the rest have been omitted for brevity.

The upper receiver parts are as follows:

• Reflective Assembly Carrier
• Steel Barrel
• Power Regulation Circuit
• Aluminum Shroud
• Aluminum Upper Receiver
• Shroud Cap
• DM-22 Sighting Computer (Refer to DM-22 Operating Manual)

The lower receiver parts are as follows:

• Power Socket Adaptor
• Electronic Trigger Group
• Integrated Weapons Management Computer (Refer to IWMC Operating Manual)

//At this point, some pages are missing or damaged beyond readability.

IWMC Usage

The IWMC is designed to supplement MET leaders' squad management by working with the internal circuit computer, the FA-12 Resource Manager and the networked DM-22 Sighting computers to provide an overview of the combat situation to the team leader, granting a high degree of situation awareness and allowing the leader to effectively designate targets to their squad.
The IWMC is only mentioned briefly in this manual, particularly when an optional system requires proper integration with the IWMC. Any questions pertaining particularly to the IWMC can be found in the IWMC Operating Manual.

SCP-XXXX - Mechanical Curiosity

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: Due to the immobile nature of SCP-XXXX, Site-71 has been constructed in order to contain the SCP, and to provide a proper processing unit for any materials entering into SCP-XXXX, or any objects that SCP-XXXX may create. Any objects that are created must be inspected by containment staff. No personnel are to enter the core for any reason - all maintenance will be done by remote-control robot. Any objects transported out of Site-71 must be cleared by at least three Level-3 personnel. Activation of the complex is only permitted by the authorization of at least one O5 personnel.

In the event of automatic start-up, all personnel are to immediately evacuate from levels 6-12, while remaining out of the way of active machinery. Containment teams are to immediately report to the surface to receive any objects produced by the SCP.

Object Description:

SCP-XXXX is a large underground factory complex that is constructed primarily of brick, steel and glass. This factory is dedicated to the construction of 18th century goods. Inside the complex is a variety of machines that are clockwork-based; these make up part of a large factory construction line. Disassembly of the industrial machines reveal complex assemblies, including gear trains, unseen types of transmission, and large steel timing chains. Chemical testing of the machines reveals the components to be composed of mostly iron ( > 95%), with the remaining elements composing of traces of carbon, manganese, chromium, nickel and tungsten. No abnormal properties have been observed with the machine parts.

SCP-XXXX is divided into 12 levels, with each level connected by elevators and large transport tubes. Ladders, crawlways, stairwells and suspended catwalks allow for human access into the structure. All levels are connected by a large shaft which routes electricity, water, communication wires and pipes throughout the entire complex. Inside each level is a series of iron chain conveyor belts and tracks for autonomous machines to follow. The complex has been divided into what appears to be the following:

• The surface structure is designed for mass storage and preparation for transport. It also provides a point where raw materials can be sent to the raw materials level. Models to be produced are designated from the control room situated within the building;

• The first level is the finishing level, where paint is applied, joints are lubricated, and general function of produced items are passed through a quality control system. Any items observed to have failed the forge's automatic quality control is sent down a chute to the recycling level;

• Levels two through five are assembly levels - machines at these levels are dedicated to taking components and constructing assemblies from individual components. Level 2 is dedicated fully to completing the products, and is equipped with advanced robotic arms and assembly machines.

• Levels six and seven are dedicated to the creation of components. Machines at this level are designed to work with extremely hot material, including molten steel and molten brass. Small machines create dies for larger machines to use for object molds. Example machines at this level include slag stirrers, automatic temperature gauges, oxygen blasters and robotic flyers that scoop up samples of the molten metal for quality testing;

• Level eight is a recycling level - any refuse from the higher levels of the complex are sent to this level to be sorted and melted down, before being re-processed. Insect-like robots have been observed to take apart faulty objects and sort them into large bins. Automatic carts take the bins and dump them into a large blast furnace, with stirring machines and air injectors keeping the mass settled. Liquid is transported from this level by large bucket to the seventh level for further processing;

• Levels nine and ten are storage for raw ores and materials. Automated carts and arms can be seen transporting materials taken from the surface and transporting them to the elevators for melting down at the upper levels. Materials that have been located at this level include coal, iron ore, bauxite, silicon dioxide, copper ore, and unprocessed gemstones. Robots at this level sort out material brought down from the surface level, and deposit them into large piles according to their type;

• Level eleven is the power core of the facility - no robots have been observed at this level;

• Level twelve is the research and development workshops of the facility. Robots at this level can be seen developing designs and occasionally send a message via pneumatic tube to the surface for processing. As of this moment, all 65 machines at this level have been shut down, and have been accounted for.

Machines found at various levels include:

• Blast furnaces;
• Metal shears;
• Hydraulic presses;
• Sand blasting machines;
• Water jet cutting arms;
• Robotic arms;
• Large-scale mills and lathes;
• Oiling machines;
• Magnetic arms;
• Degaussing assemblies;
• Crucible cranes;
• Steam rollers;
• Metal planes;
• Vacuum pumps, and
• Stamping/engraving arms.

In addition to the machines found throughout the facility, various automatons have been observed to work throughout the facility. These machines (with the exception of the machines on level 12) are based off Babbage-style engines, and are charged periodically by connecting to electrified poles through the levels. Disassembly of a specimen reveals that the machine recharges through electrostatic contact with the poles, and retain the charge through a basic parallel plate capacitor. These automata are made of a similar alloy to the larger, stationary machines. Small automatons rely on fluid or cable-based computers for their instructions, while larger automatons use mechanical computers. The following is a list of observed robots and their functions:

• Water-blasting automatons to cool pieces from cutting operations;
• Automatons equipped with arc welders to periodically repair the steel supporting structure. These machines also house larger capacitors to store the necessary charge;
• Dozer-style machines to clean the level floors and deposit any debris towards a reprocessing tube;
• Maintenance automatons that replace and repair any damage to a machine;
• Automata equipped with insectile appendages sort out and disassemble faulty components;
• Centipede-like machines that move along the top of ingots, inspecting for impurities;
• Flying machines that have two rotary blades and are armed with claws. They transport parts to various levels, destroy obstructions or deter intruders (two staff have been injured by these sentries);
• Spider-like robots that maintain the integrity of the structure, and
• Snake-like robots that are used to inspect the interior of large assemblies and machines.

NOTE: SCP-XXXX is creating new robots in response to containment. All staff must refer to Addendum XXXX-03 for further instructions.

These lists are by no means exhaustive - research staff are still cataloguing machines and automatons that are discovered.

The core of SCP-XXXX is located at the second-lowest level of the complex, and is surrounded by blast doors constructed of a combination of lead plating, iron plating and cadmium plating. Inside the core structure is a reactor bank, composed of 18 glass cylinders arranged on a icosahedral steel object, that is attached by 3-meter thick poles to the floor and ceiling of the room. Pipes filled with a water-like fluid are connected to the suspended cylinders, and are believed to act as a cooling system. The radiation dosage at the core icosahedral structure has been measured in excess of 50 sieverts/hour, making human exploration of the reactor structure impossible. No components from the reactor structure have been disassembled up to this date. 30 complete skeletons have been found in this room - all have been assumed to have succumbed to radiation poisoning. No personnel are to approach this room for any reason unless authorized, and personnel are not to remain on this level for any longer than two hours - radiation dosimeter tags must be worn at all times to keep track of exposure time.

The lowest level of SCP-XXXX is composed of small workshops, which appear to have been used to model machines for the main lines, as well as provide models for the machines to produce. On this level, a storage unit has also been located, and completed models have been located in this storage unit. Objects include toys, weapons, personal vehicles, animals, implants, and, in one case, an artificial clockwork human head that could [REDACTED]. A list of items obtained from level twelve can be found in Addendum XXXX-01.

The robots from the lowest level are designed with insect-like appendages for manipulating machines and tools. The distinguishing feature of these robots is that, in the core of each robot, there appears to be a human brain. None of these robots have been disassembled as of this writing. It is assumed that the robots are sentient, but are designed to do nothing but to design. Attempts to communicate with these robots produces no response (See Addendum XXXX-02).

SCP-XXXX was discovered located in the Pacific Ocean, near the island of [REDACTED], in 1999. Archaeologists exploring the area accidentally came upon the surface building, and brought up some of the materials from the storage units. When the Foundation was alerted to the presence of the SCP, a research team was sent in to contain the object. Upon discovering the actual size of the object, it was decided that Site-71 would be set-up in order to experiment with and take advantage of the SCP.

Addendum XXXX-01: The following is an incomplete list of model prototypes that have been located within SCP-XXXX. Items that have been subjected to non-destructive and destructive testing will have notes attached:

Addendum XXXX-02: These robots are very interesting. They do not need much in the way of electricity, and yet perform to the same level of efficiency, if not greater than, today's modern robot technology. Various explorations into the facility reveal many more robots, that it would take me time to catalogue and examine them all. Further detailed lists of the mapped facility, machines, robots, created models and experiments will follow. - Dr. Xiao

Addendum XXXX-03: The factory complex, in apparent response to continual human exploration, has started constructing new automatons. Observed and captured specimens reveal a set of mechanical glass eyes, as well as a complex card-punching system that punches information similar to binary code onto a cardboard sheet. Automatons have been observed to be following Foundation personnel through the structure, and around the island site. Foundation staff is to remain aware of these robots, and are to immediately report to Dr. Xiao in the event of new automatons being observed.

Addendum XXXX-04: The following is a collection of photos taken from exploration into the structure:

A recovered engine taken from a damaged milling machine. The engine was replaced by maintenance robots two hours later.

Another engine recovered from a constructed steam engine.

An inspector robot that was taken to a testing chamber within Site-71. The robot did not resume normal operation until it was returned to its proper sublevel.

A collection of firearms produced by SCP-XXXX. No anomalous effects were observed from the handling and testing of these weapons.

It's been a little while since I've last seen my kids.

That fucking dirtbag, Jerry… at least he got to rot in hell, without this pain. Should've shot him in the nuts instead of the head.

It's been three years since I've been sentenced. Two weeks ago, though, a man working for this so-called "Foundation" thingy asked me if I wanted to participate in some research study.
I asked him what I got in return, and he said after a month, I could be free. Of course, I would accept such an offer, anything to get me out of this piece-of-shit prison cell.

Whatever these scientist-douchebags injected me with, it's painful.

They watched behind glass windows as I bled out. I kept bleeding, but refused to die. Those men in their white jackets, continuing to watch over me.

Finally, the bleeding stopped. They allowed me to rest, at least for a short while, before they injected me with something else…

… when I woke up, I was already forced into a clear box, and above a shaft. Holy shit - that's one long drop down.

I heard a microphone asking me to "concentrate" on growing wings. How the fuck was I supposed to do that? Of course, I told them to go fuck themselves. They gave me 15 minutes, and I saw a timer start counting down from 15. I didn't know what would happen at 0, but I didn't want to find out.

I felt my body shake, as if something began to tear its way from my back. I thought for a short while about what they injected me with, and… maybe, I could grow wings.

With every last bit of my will, I forced my body to grow these "wings". It felt like an eternity, forcing these painful shards out of my back.

And they grew. Ugly, flesh-formed wings like a bat, but they're still wings. The timer was at 2 minutes.

I forced open the lid of the box. Thankfully, it wasn't reinforced or locked or anything.

I spread my wings, and began to fly. Almost fell down the first few flaps, but got the hang of this.

As I began to fly to the surface, I thought of my kids once more. I could go see them again!

I saw some scientists in their ugly orange suits and some military guys in black follow me. They can't catch me now!

I'm almost free! I'm almost-

EXCERPT: Post-Experiment Log 016-08

"D-11621 was infected with SCP-016 on ██/██/████, and managed to survive the near-total exsanguination. D-11621 was placed in an acrylic box suspended above a mine shaft, and was told to focus on growing wings, and given 15 minutes before the bomb detonated. At the two minute mark, it was observed that D-11621 finally grew out a fully-formed set of wings, similar to a bat. Using these wings, D-11621 was able to escape the mine shaft and fly above Testing Area-██. Subject was terminated by gunshot fired from a Mossberg 500 shotgun. Autopsy revealed the wings anchored to the shoulder blades, and the muscles also attached to the shoulder blades and collar bones. Genetic testing of D-11621 is underway, to determine if genetic makeup affects the outcome of 016 mutation. - Dr. S. Xiao
