Item #: SCP-XXX

SCP-XXX at the location of it's discovery.

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept within a 5x5x5 meter containment area at Site-██. The containment area must be guarded by at least three [3] guards of Level 2 or lower security clearance armed with tranquilizer syringes, and emergency transmitters. At least one [1] Class D personnel is to be placed within SCP-XXX’s containment chamber per month. In the event of an SCP-XXX-3 event, all guards are to tranquilize any nearby foundation personnel, activate their emergency transmitters, then tranquilize themselves. Within fifteen [15] minutes of the emergency transmitters being activated, a single Class D personnel must be placed within SCP-XXX’s chamber. The Class D must not come into physical contact with his/her guards under any circumstances. Should the Class D resist, all non lethal forces are authorized, so long as they do not cause unconsciousness.

DESCRIPTION: SCP-XXX was recovered in the home of Mr. and Mrs. ██████ in ████ California in 20██. At first glance SCP-XXX appears to be a ██████ brand flexible necked shower head. The anomalous properties of SCP-XXX become apparent when a single human stands underneath it, without any other humans or animals in the same enclosed area as him/her. After the subject is standing underneath it, SCP-XXX enters an active state and begins spraying hot water of approximately forty two [42] degrees celsius, depending on the subjects preference. Once underneath the water of SCP-XXX, the subject will refuse leaving the vicinity of the shower head, no matter what threats are issued.

After about fifteen [15] minutes of the subject being under SCP-XXX, SCP-XXX-1 begins to manifest. SCP-XXX-1 is an unusually thick form of the fog that regularly forms when taking a shower in an enclosed room. It has the anomalous property of completely filling any enclosed area of less than one thousand [1000] cubic meters. At this point, the subject becomes less relaxed, and when asked about how they feel, they describe it as “nice” but often accompany it by asking if they sent somebody else in to watch them without notifying them.

Within three [3] minutes of SCP-XXX-1 manifesting, SCP-XXX-2 will appear to walk out of the steam. The subject then loses any feelings of safety or comfort acquired from SCP-XXX’s memetic effect, and generally begin screaming. SCP-XXX-2 is approximately 1.75 meters tall, with three [3] extremely long clawed fingers of about .5 meters each, it has arms that are approximately 1 meter long each, and it seems to have little to no muscle mass. In every case, it attempts to stay concealed. The subject is then grabbed by SCP-XXX-2 and [DATA EXPUNGED].

After being [DATA EXPUNGED] by SCP-XXX-2, SCP-XXX-1 clears, and no fluid is left behind except for a puddle of water where the subject previously was. Based upon numerous tests, it has been determined that this puddle is equivalent to the amount of water inside of the subject.
SCP-XXX-3 manifests when SCP-XXX is not “fed” for an extended period of time. What happens during an SCP-XXX-3 event is as follows: SCP-XXX enters an active state, then the closest conscious human to SCP-XXX’s containment chamber begins to feel what they describe as “sticky” or “grimy”. This human will hereafter be referred to as “the subject”. The subject will attempt to rub the “grime” off of themselves using their clothes, their hands, or their mouth. After this fails, they will demand to be let in to SCP-XXX’s chamber. If this is denied, they will attempt break in. At this point, they either manage to get into the chamber, already filled with SCP-XXX-1, and then spend about 1 minute in the chamber before they are [DATA EXPUNGED] by SCP-XXX-2, or they are successfully held off. If the latter happens, SCP-XXX-3 will continue to affect humans until one has successfully managed to enter the area affected by SCP-XXX-1, and then said human will be [DATA EXPUNGED] by SCP-XXX-2. During an SCP-XXX-3 event, SCP-XXX does not require the person consumed to be affected by SCP-XXX-3.

When escorting a Class D to SCP-XXX during an SCP-XXX-3 event, guards are to not have physical contact with the prisoner if s/he is affected by SCP-XXX-3. (see INCIDENT LOG XXX-B)

+ Incident Log XXX-A

Incident Log XXX-A:
Footage is a security camera directly in front of SCP-XXX’s containment site.

0:00: Three guards are standing in front of SCP-XXX’s chamber completely silent, two in front, one in back, triangle formation.

1:04: Guards seem to hear something. The two in front seem to be looking around for the source of the noise. The guard in the back, however, seems to have something irritating his skin. He has taken both of his gloves off, and is repeatedly rubbing the back of both hands on his vest.

1:45: Guard in back is becoming hysterical, taking off many of his clothes, seeming to scream. The other two guards back off, when their faces come into sight of camera, they are visibly confused. Hysterical guard begins to shoot at the containment area’s door. Other two guards seem unaffected, but can be seen requesting backup.

2:17: Subject manages to break through containment area’s door, and runs, naked and screaming, into the chamber.

2:25: Unaffected guards peer into chamber, confused. Then they reel backwards, obviously yelling.

2:45: Backup arrives. SCP-XXX-1 has cleared. One of the guards is seen in the fetal position in a corner, other is seen vomiting into a trash can. Guards are questioned by backup, but are seen mouthing “too fucking horrifying to describe” and “I just need a moment. Or maybe a lifetime, I just saw Sam get [DATA EXPUNGED] by that thing.”

2:45-2:00:00: Men are moved away from scene for questioning. They are replaced by three other men. Tape ends.

+ Addendum XXX-A

Addendum XXX-A:
Following the events of Incident XXX-A, all guards to be Security Level 2 or lower, I don’t want to risk getting any higher level personnel killed by this type of event. Also, this hasn’t ever happened before, leading me to believe that it is caused by the fact that we haven’t given tested any Class D in over 45 days. To keep this from happening again, or at least hopefully prevent it, I am adding a requirement of placing a Class D in there at least once a month. Also, all guards are going to have emergency transmitters, and tranquilizers. In the event of a -A event, guards are hereby ordered to activate the transmitters, and tranquilize all Foundation personnel sight.

+ Incident Log XXX-B

Incident Log XXX-B:

Footage is security camera in front of SCP-XXX’s containment area.

0:00: The three guards in front of the containment area hear SCP-XXX enter an active state. They react by quickly tranquilizing everybody within visual range, then activating their responders, and then tranquilizing themselves.

2:15: Foundation guards are enter frame, escorting D-XXX-17 to SCP-XXX’s containment area.

2:30: D-XXX-17 becomes hysterical, obviously being affected by SCP-XXX-3.

2:35: Both Foundation guards start to suffer the same effects as D-XXX-17.

2:40: As all three approach the door however, a verbal debate breaks out. Lip readers are able to detect words such as “I get to” and “No I’m first”. The Foundation guards then attack D-XXX-17.

3:55: D-XXX-17 is killed. Foundation guards begin fight between each other.

8:22: One of the foundation guards has his leg broken, he then draws his a firearm, and discharges it at the other guards leg.

22:16: The guards’ battle has reduced to simple clawing and scratching, as both have been crippled by the other.

30:07: The guards of SCP-XXX awake, and find the other Foundation guards fighting on the ground. In an attempt, all SCP-XXX guards attempt to stop the fight between the wounded Foundation guards.

30:15: SCP-XXX guards start to suffer S-XXX-3 symptoms. They group together to kill the wounded guards, then continue to fight among themselves.

32:18: Other foundation personnel that were knocked out in hallway start waking up. By attempting to break up the fight between guards, one by one they start joining in the fight.

38:19: All personnel that were in the hallway (approximately 25) are in a group fighting.

40:20: In the commotion, a Foundation guard calls for backup against “the crazy rioters”.

41:15: Backup arrives. Approximately 35 men dressed in Foundation anti-riot gear.

42:27: Through physical contact, all Foundation anti-riot troopers are under the influence of SCP-XXX-3.

1:25:06: Only five subjects are left fighting. All have serious wounds, and are still fighting to (assumedly) see who will be the one that can go into SCP-XXX’s containment chamber. A doctor walking by sees all of the bodies on the ground, and instead of attempting to intervene, calls in Foundation security.

1:30:06: All but one of the subjects are executed by Foundation security guards. Last person alive crawls into the containment chamber with a relieved smile on their face. When reaching the door however, SCP-XXX-2 appears. Survivor attempts fleeing, however they find they cannot go more than 2 meters away from the area affected by SCP-XXX-1. SCP-XXX-2 then [DATA EXPUNGED] the subject on camera, however it manages to keep it’s ‘face’ partially concealed during the whole period it is on camera.

1:31:00: Foundation security force is seen vomiting, crying, and passing out. Captain can be seen requesting clean up crew. Captain of the security force passes out.

1:33:00-2:00:00: Cleanup crew arrives, and the Foundation security officers are taken to the on site psychiatric ward. Clean up crew finishes cleaning up bodies, new guards are assigned to SCP-XXX’s containment area. Tape ends.

+ Addendum XXX-B

ADDENDUM XXX-B:
Following Incident XXX-B, it has become clear that SCP-XXX is far more dangerous than previously thought. Contact seems to trigger XXX-3’s effects, and since only one person can be affected by XXX-2, they obviously fight to the death to determine who will be the ‘sacrifice’ as it were. Therefore, I am adding to the containment procedures that there must be no contact with the Class D as s/he is heading towards XXX’s containment chamber, even if not affected by XXX-3. I don’t want any more risks taken.

Begin log:

“Okay then, let’s get this started.

“Dear O5-██,

“I would like to request transfer from SCP-XXX.

“Though I have spent many hours researching SCP-XXX, it’s functions, and it’s origins, I feel as though I am no longer fit to continue research on this particular SCP.

“I understand that a high level doctor requesting transfer is very rare but… but… Oh for fucks sake, I can’t keep up this tone anymore!

“I just cant work on this fucking SCP anymore. I’ve seen men I care about get… get… actually, I won’t tell you what that monstrosity does to them, you have the fucking tape, look at it your damned self!

“Do you know what it’s like, watching somebody you know get turned into a puddle of fucking water “for science”?! Watching the terror run over their face, as they realize that they're dead? Watching over sixty men and women fight to their deaths just to see who can die a horrible death first! And the class D’s! Do you know what it’s like ordering a person to their death behind their backs, then telling them to step into a shower for no reason. Feeling their screams as your own, because it was you that did it to them, it was you that lied?

“Do you know what any of that is like?

“If your answer is yes, then please, please approve my transfer. I just can’t fucking do it anymore, it’s too god damned hard.”

Silence for several seconds. Pacing followed by a sigh can be heard.

“Fuck, that’s not going to get me anywhere. I guess I’ll just get rid of it. Hope nobody finds this, I’m probably fucked if this gets shown to O5-██.”
