Item #: SCP-X

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures:

The crate containing SCP-X is to be contained in the storage warehouse in site-██ (See incident report X-2) SCP-X is to be kept in its original crate in a secure storage vault in the armory in site-19, clearance level 2 personel and higher may request a package of SCP-X, and is in no way required to use up the entire package, as supplies are limited. Mobile Task Forces may request to use SCP-X, upon approval of at least one level 3 research director of site location.

Current available packages remaining: 2,934, plus 12 pieces.

Description:
SCP-X is a small package of ████-brand bubble gum, containing 16 pieces of individually wrapped strips, 7cm x 3cm in size. Each piece tastes of either mint or cherry, and only once being chewed are its anomalous properties produced, hereby after referred to as SCP-X’s active state.

SCP-X’s active state is produced after 5 seconds of chewing, after which a transparent cyan sphere, is created around the subject made of an unknown, indestructible substance. When the sphere completes its expansion, the flavor of SCP-X takes on a bitter taste, often causing subjects to gag. At no time however, should SCP-X be removed from the subject’s mouth during its active phase. If removed, the sphere will collapse in on itself, causing everything inside it to be condensed into a small black orb, approximately 3 cubic centimeters in size. It is safe to say, that the subject is to be presumed terminated when this reaction occurs, as the mass of the black orb is roughly equal to that of the subject.

All tests to date have proved the sphere to be completely indestructible, withstanding sharp implements, gun fire, plastic explosives, artillery, a trash compacter, extreme temperatures, being dropped 100km above sea level onto a tungsten plate, and [REDACTED]. When exposed to radiation, SCP-X filters out all harmful wavelengths, including but not limited to, Ultra Violet, Gamma, X-rays, and Delta Wavelengths. When physical force is applied to SCP-X in its active state, the Bubble will create a ripple effect that stops when the edge of the ripple reaches the reverse side. All sounds heard from outside the “Bubble” are muffled if they exceed 75db, as a method of preventing the subject from sounds that may cause harm to the subject. So far, the only proven method of affecting the subject within the “Bubble” is with memetic objects, which has proven as a useful tool for getting D-Class to cooperate with research personel.

The interior of the “Bubble”, through unknown methods, provides a comfortable environment for the subject, and adapts to the subject’s needs, such as oxygen, humidity, temperature, and air pressure. Thanks to Dr.Z , a remote operated mechanical jaw was constructed for use in an experiment involving a shark as the subject; the Bubble filled with cool salt water and moved as the shark “swam”. The “Bubble” itself follows the subject’s center of mass, but also acts as a sort of extension to the subject’s body, as it can be pushed, causing the subject inside to move with it.

Incident Report-X-2:

During a test, a D-Class escaped the test chamber after pretending to lose consciousness when SCP-X entered his mouth. When the test chamber doors were opened, D-Class activated SCP-X and ran out of the room, avoiding all methods of capture.

D-Class made its way down the north corridor of site-sss, and when finally arriving at a wall on the west side of the facility, phased through the wall. Cameras on the perimeter of the facility, show D-Class stop outside the wall, pause for approx. 3 seconds, and then spit out SCP-X during its active phase.

D-Class presumed terminated. SCP-X relocated to higher security containment. Further tests have been made in attempt to recreate this anomaly but have thus far failed.
