Nickname: City of the Hurt
SCP-XXXX at time of recovery.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Class: Euclid Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently kept locked in a 10 x 10 meter security cage in Site 48, only accessible by Level 3 personnel. Explorations are to be approved by the on-site director, and by 5 level 3 personnel before beginning. All explorations are currently on hiatus, due to the events on ██/█/██ (see exploration log 3 for more details). Three security personnel are to guard SCP-XXXX at all times.
Personnel with a history of childhood abuse are not permitted to enter SCP-XXXX under any circumstances (save for exploration purposes).
Edit 1: Unconcealed weaponry is not permitted during expeditions in to SCP-XXXX.
Edit 2: Personnel are to ignore any statements SCP-XXXX-1 instances make.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a 8 x 8 x 1 meter children's ball pit, filled with approximatley 500 pastel plastic balls. SCP-XXXX is not anomalous in it's make and model, however, SCP-XXXX becomes anomalous when any personnel reaches the bottom of the pit.
When any personnel who have undergone psychological/physical abuse by a parent or outside force before the age of 18 reaches the bottom of SCP-XXXX, they will be transported to a parallel dimension. This parallel dimension has not been fully charted, save for a city roughly ███ square kilometers in size.
SCP-XXXX-1 instances are very large humanoid creatures, roughly 15-20 meters tall. SCP-XXXX-1 instances have elongated necks and arms, as well as no mouths. SCP-XXXX-1 instances can, however, communicate in a currently unknown way.
Please see SCP-XXXX exploration logs for more details.
Exploration personnel and related abuse:
Security Guard ███████: Psychological abuse from stepmother at the age of 7.
Security Guard ███: Physical abuse from outside force (relatives) from 10-18.
D-20129: Physical abuse from alcoholic father between ages 7-15.
D-20136: Psychological abuse from mother between ages 2-18.
D-20148: Physical abuse from outside force (bullying) between ages 15-18.
D-20181: Personnel refused to share.
Begin Camera. Camera begins in city limits, 3 SCP-XXXX-1 instances in the area. See photo XXXX-1 for more information.
D-20129: Jesus, what the hell are those things?
Control: SCP-XXXX-1 instances. So long as you show no hostility, they will not attack.
D-20129: They creep me the fuck out. One looks… never mind.
Control: Say again, D-20129?
D-20129: Audibly concerned. Nothing, just… reminded me of someone.
Security Guard ███████: Let's move gents, we have a whole city to cover in just a few hours.
Small time lapse of 2:19. Personnel enter city limits, SCP-XXXX-1 instances are activated.
SCP-XXXX-1-1: Subjects activate. Hostiles detected near the children. Protect. Instances begin to advance quickly to exploration team's position.
Security Guard ███: Jesus, these things are fast!
Security Guard ███████: Open fire!
Gunshots. SCP-XXXX-1 instances reach security team within 30 seconds. SCP-XXXX-1-1 instance attacks Security Guard ███████, proceeding to tear off his arm and crush his body. SCP-XXXX-1-3 proceeds to crush Security Guard ███'s weapon before killing him by [REDACTED].
D-20148: Oh my god! D-20148 proceeds to regurgitate.
SCP-XXXX-1-2: No weapons. No violence. The children have had enough.
Time lapse of 14:16 without any action. D-20181 sits in silence.
Control: Muffled sounds of yelling. We're calling off the exploration team. Retreat back through the entrance.
D-20148: Standing up. Control.
Control: Yes, D-20148?
D-20148: I'd like to stay, if that's alright.
Control: Negative, D-20148. We need to get you out of there.
D-20148: Let me rephrase that; I'm refusing to leave.
Control: D-20148, return to base immediately.
D-20148: I won't, control. I'm sorry. This place is better than any shit world I'd want to go back to.
Control: D-20148, return to base, or we will be forced to terminate you.
Radio silence.
Control: Dammit, get D-20148 back here!
End log.
Closing statement: Security team who proceeded to enter to retrieve D-20148 was wiped out by SCP-XXXX-1 instances. D-20148 has not been seen since. SCP-XXXX-1-2 was described as looking like D-20129's councilor.
My councilor was the nicest woman in the world… anything that could bear that face with such violence is sickening.
-D-20129
Please close before proceeding.
Exploration personnel and abuse issues:
D-20821: Physical abuse by older brother from ages 6-15.
D-20910: Sexual abuse by older sister from ages 13-19.
D-20881: Physical abuse by stepbrother from ages 7-12.
Guard ███████: Psychological abuse from outside sources (school bullies) from age 6-18. IMPORTANT NOTE: Guard ███████ used a concealed pistol, rather than an assault weapon like the other two security guards.
Begin Camera Log. Exploration team entered city limits without problems. Main city was labeled as New Haven City.
Guard ███████: Control, we've entered city limits without issue. Where are we going?
Control: Your main priority is to find D-20148, with a secondary goal of exploration of the city.
D-20910: Woah… they got Jimmy?
Control: D-20148 disobeyed orders and entered the city. We were unable to detonate the remote-disable collar.
Guard ███████: We'll attempt to get him back.
Team ascended to the top of a skyscraper (labled as Heavenreach Tower) in 1.2 hours and took an overhead shot of the city. See Photo XXXX-2.
D-20881: This city is beautiful… in a haunted, fucked up kind of way.
Guard ███████: Do you see buildings in that bay, over there? Guard ███████ points to the northwest bay. Several buildings are in the middle of the bay.
Control: Interesting. Try to make your way to the bay, if you can.
D-20910: Is it me, or are there a ton of those giant humans we saw earlier?
Camera pans down to see two additional SCP-XXXX-1 instances patrolling the city. Full transcript available below.
Control: Ruffling papers. Two more than we've previously recorded. Must be ones we never observed.
Guard ███████: Radio silence, then small whisper. What the actual fuck…?
Control: What is it, ███████?
Guard ███████: It just looks like… ███ is on one of those.
Control: Just a coincidence, ███████. Proceed with the missions.
Guard ███████: Hesitant. Yeah… okay.
Extraneous information cut. Exploration team arrives at bay. D-20881 proceeds to gag on an unknown force.
D-20881: Jesus, it stinks here! What died and was turned inside out before shitting everywhere.
D-20910: Laughter. Probably just you, Ronny.
D-20881: Stuff it, Sckavone.
Guard ███████: Shut up, all of you. We don't know if any SCP-XXXX-1 instances are in the area.
D-20821: Yeah. Besides, this entire place is fucked.
Building is shown in the center of the bay. SCP-XXXX-1 instance spots the team from behind.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Citizens. Please do not harm the wildlife while visiting Hope Bay.
Control: Comply with the subject. We can't risk angering it.
D-20910: Uh… sure, sorry. We weren't planning on it.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Thank you. Have a nice day.
SCP-XXXX-1-4 exits the area. Exploration team exits SCP-XXXX without incident.
2 more SCP-XXXX-1 instances appear, and two security guards died last time we were here. What the ████ is this place?
-Dr. ████████
Transcript of SCP-XXXX-1 broadcast:
Citizens of New Haven City! Please comply with the Protectors, as they are only here to help you! If you see suspicious activity, tell your nearest protector immediately! We will rebuild! We (data lost) survive!

Please close file before proceeding.
Important Note: The following is not as much an exploration log, as it is an accidental camera-feed glitch that came from within SCP-XXXX. Camera belonged to Security Guard ███████.
SCP-XXXX-1-3: This one entered with weapons. We will now purify him.
Camera, at this point, glitches 22:05 minutes through. Camera comes back, and SCP-XXXX-1-1 stands in front of an open chest of an SCP-XXXX-1 instance. Open chest has a human brain in the center, hooked up to an unknown machine. SCP-XXXX-1-4 speaks with a metallic and grating voice.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Why… won't… you let… me die…
SCP-XXXX-1-1: You need to serve penance. You bring violence to a safe haven. Your arrogance is your undoing.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Just wanted… to protect… friends…
SCP-XXXX-1-2: Of course you did, ███████. But now, you will protect thousands in this new form.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Kill… me…
SCP-XXXX-1-3: You display no violence. We will not kill you.
SCP-XXXX-1-4: Kill… me… please. I'm begging… you.
SCP-XXXX-1-2: Why would we kill you, when you can be a part of a greater cause?
SCP-XXXX-1-4: What… Cause…
SCP-XXXX-1-1: We'll destroy your world of violence, for our own.
D-20148 comes in to the shot, smiling. He proceeds to close SCP-XXXX-1-4's chest, before going off camera. SCP-XXXX-1-1 proceeds to look in to the camera directly.
SCP-XXXX-1-1: I know you're watching us, Secure Contain Protect foundation. You are not welcome here, and we will kill you if you enter. You bring nothing but death and hatred.
SCP-XXXX-1-2: You bring nothing but sadness and anger.
SCP-XXXX-1-3: You bring nothing but violence and greed.
All SCP-XXXX-1 instances: We look forward to seeing you in our land so you may be purified.
End Log.
Closing Statement: After this log was found during archive footage 2 hours after it began (21:48 CST), 2 SCP-XXXX-1 instances (SCP-XXXX-1-1 and SCP-XXXX-1-4) proceeded to enter Site 48 via rift. They proceeded to kill ██ personnel before being destroyed after crushing them via the access lift
Of important note, every time SCP-XXXX-1-4 killed a foundation personnel (most notably D-20129, D-20136, and D-20148), it apologized.
"███████ was in there. I don't give a ████ what the brass say, I killed a human being by cutting the counter weights."
-Security Guard █████
Addendum 1: Security guards are now to be posted outside of SCP-XXXX's containment area.
Addendum 2: [DATA EXPUNGED] On-site nuke destroyed by SCP-XXXX-1 instances. [REDACTED] casualties. MTF ███-2 entered Site 48 and destroyed the SCP-XXXX-1 instances. 28 more SCP-XXXX-1 instances have been made.
"I'm hereby requesting we destroy SCP-XXXX's city by transporting a nuke through SCP-XXXX. By our calculations, we'll be overrun in █ days.
-Site Director ███████████
"Request granted. You have 4 days."
