Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Due to SCP-XXXX's location having high civilian activity, four armed guards disguised as Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park rangers are to be stationed outside of Site-32's opening. To ensure Site-32's concealment, all non-authorized personnel are to be redirected immediately. Only members of the science division with clearance 3/XXXX may lead exploration attempts. All authorized site researchers are required to send a formal exploration request to the respective site director prior to sending on-site task force on excursions within SCP-XXXX. Because of SCP-XXX's nature to negate outside communications, all exploration attempts are to last a maximum of one hour (additional time may be added at the permission of the site director).
Description: SCP-XXXX is a large superstructure measuring roughly one hundred fifty (150) meters in length located in a cave system within Ayers Rock, Uluru. SCP-XXXX’s exterior is created from a high-strength non-reactive metal alloy with electromagnetic wave restricting properties. Chemical composition analysis does not match any known material on earth, suggesting an extraterrestrial origin.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: Because of SCP-XXXX's uncooperativeness to remain within baseline reality and aggressive nature towards Foundation intervention, physical containment is currently unattainable. MTF Ω-9 "Dimension Hoppers" operatives are to establish and maintain a provisional site within Universe-421 on Earth-278. MTF Ω-9 is to record all hume discrepancies within Sol-421 and report any major deviations to Earth-0. All methods of transportations in-between dimensions is to be carried out by SCP-████-4.
Any outgoing and incoming objects with a hume level higher or lower than SCP-████-4's hume footprint is assumed to be SCP-XXXX. In the event that SCP-XXXX creat

Addendum XXXX-A: SCP-XXXX was discovered when
Addendum XXXX-B: As of █/██/██, all attempts at contact via Dimensional Research Site-567 is hereby suspended by order of O5 command.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX may not be in contact with other anomalous items as it poses a risk of accidental neutralization of said items. When not used for testing, SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a standard 10 x 10 meter humanoid containment cell at Humanoid Containment Site-06-3. Basic amneties are to be given including three full meals a day of adequate nutrition. Requests of additional apparatus may be granted for the purpose of recreation or education. SCP-XXXX's holding cell is to be monitored at all times by CCTV.
Under no circumstances is SCP-XXXX allowed to be in contact of any firearm outside of testing without written permission by no less than two Level-4 clearance researchers and approval by site director. Any personnel attempting to provide SCP-XXXX with a firearm without written consent is to be immediately detained and be subjected to reassignment.
Additionally, SCP-XXXX is allowed to fulfill certain posts within the site when requested to under the strict surveillance of no less than two security operatives of Lieutenant rank or above. Posts may not include the handling of tests including other anomalous humanoid entities.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a, presumably, male operative dressed in standard Foundation security fatigue weighing approximately 214 kilograms in weight and 1.8 meters in height. Measurements are taken based off uniform worn as SCP-XXXX has not been observed taking off said fatigues since time of containment. Physical appearance is indescernable from standard security operatives, excluding a maroon armband to distinguish it from other personnel. SCP-XXXX possesses unremarkable strength and agility compared to similar operatives. Displays of proficiency in hand-to-hand combat, weapons mastery, and discipline are in line with standard Security Division training regiment. Aside from abstaining to identify itself (See Interview Log XXXX-1), SCP-XXXX is highly conforming towards Foundation staff requests (within regulations), especially to high ranking individuals within the security department.
SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties are not observed until a firearm is introduced. Instructions to dispatch any living, sentient and/or sapient object (or object otherwise capable of perceiving its own existence and function) using said firearm will result in a guaranteed almost guaranteed neutralization of the objects intended use or functionality (see Testing Logs XXXX-1). Type of firearm, used including varying calibers or rifling, is irrelevant. This ability has been observed in the successful termination of SCP-██ enhanced D-class personnel to several apparatuses belonging to the Anderson Robotics organization.
Addendum XXXX-1: SCP-XXXX was recovered on █/█/██ at Site ██ after a failed terminal login was observed by RAISA. SCP-XXXX was detained after questioning when identification was proven inconsistent with current database. Subsequent to recovery , SCP-XXXX had been noted as "unlike himself" by fellow operatives and Foundational staff. Investigations are currently underway to discern a link between SCP-XXXX and Lieutenant ███████.
Addendum XXXX-2: Testing is currently underway regarding the extent of SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties Full testing logs are attached below.

SCP #: XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Under strict supervision by operatives of the Beta-7 task force, SCP-XXXX is permitted to carry out post-amomaly cleanup when deployed. Under no circumstances is SCP-XXXX allowed to come in contact with or attempt to recontain anomalous objects or entities without prior permission from O5 Command.
In the event of a breach scenario, SCP-XXXX is to be treated as Foundation personnel and redirected to the nearest breach shelter under escort by no less than three Beta-7 operatives. Engagement of other SCPs is strictly prohibited and any attempts to do so by SCP-XXXX will be redirected by any means.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a, presumably, male operative dressed in Mobile Task Force Beta-7 "Maz Hatters" fatigue and weighing approximately 214 kilograms in weight and 1.8 meters in height. Measurements are taken based off uniform worn as SCP-XXXX has not been observed taking off said fatigues since time of containment. Physical appearance is indescernable from standard Beta-7 operatives, excluding a maroon armband to distinguish it from other personnel. SCP-XXXX possesses unremarkable strength and agility compared to similar operatives. Displays of proficiency in hand-to-hand combat, weapons mastery, and discipline are in line with standard Mobile Task Force training regiment. Aside from abstaining to identify itself (See Interview Log XXXX-1), SCP-XXXX is highly conforming towards Foundation staff requests within reasonable cause.
SCP-XXXX's anomalous properties are not observed until a firearm is introduced. Instructions to dispatch any living, sentient and/or sapient object (or object otherwise capable of perceiving its own existence and function) using said firearm will result in a guaranteed almost guaranteed neutralization of the objects intended use or functionality (see Testing Logs XXXX-1). Type of firearm, used including calibers or rifling, is irrelevant. This ability has been observed in the successful termination of SCP-██ enhanced D-class personnel to [DATA REDACTED].
Additionally, SCP-XXXX is observed to have complete invulnerability to any and all attempts to inflict physical trauma by any normal or anomalous methods to date. It is noted that atempts to extract information regarding as to how SCP-XXXX obtained its anomalous properties will result in emotional distress and is currently ill-advised. (See Interview Log XXXX-1)
Addendum SCP-XXXX.1: SCP-XXXX was contained during EVENT XXXX during a standard sterilization protocol conducted by Beta-7 following a raid on a warehouse located in [REDACTED]. Warehouse occupants have been identified to be members of the Church of the Broken God. Current motives are unclear, however it is stated that intentions to 'bring a prophet of unremitting torment' were established by several members.
SCP #: XXXX
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is currently contained at Armed Research Facility-143 within a climate-controlled humanoid containment cell. The containment cell is to be outfitted with steel walls measuring no less than two meters of thickness in any direction and must be kept at a humidity of less than 10% and an ambient temperature of -15° Celsius. Air scrubbers have been installed to remove surrounding SCP-XXXX-1 particulate matter. Sanitation facilities belonging to SCP-XXXX's cell zone must have its water cleaned of residual SCP-XXXX-1 instances and recycled.
SCP-XXXX is prohibited from coming into contact within any device capable of producing heat in excess of 430° centigrade. Light fixtures within the aforementioned cell is to be equipped with low-heat LED lamps. No firearms capable of discharging live ammunition are to be introduced to SCP-XXXX's outside of pre-approved testing in designated testing chambers. Security personnel assigned to SCP-XXXX must carry rubber bullet alternatives.
Receptacles containing chemical compound KNO3 (potassium nitrate) must be kept on site. Portions of the substance must be administered to SCP-XXXX in 100 milligram caplets three times a day in supplement replacement of standard humanoid meals. Additional potassium nitrate for testing purposes may be requested after prior clearance with the Site Director.
SCP-XXXX is provided counselling by the current site psychologist for the purpose of up-keeping morale and providing a means for compliant interviews. Official interview sessions must be held on a weekly basis, while visitation for recreational purposes may be requested on SCP-XXXX's behalf. Communication is to be carried out through microphone assisted by an acrylic glass window.
Direct access to SCP-XXXX's containment cell is prohibited. Physical contact may only be established by D-Class personnel and handled by no less than three security personnel.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a humanoid entity which identifies itself as Mobile Task Force operative Charlotte Kingsley1. SCP-XXXX weighs approximately 62 kilograms in weight2 and 167 centimeters in height. Although SCP-XXXX appears to have working external organs, full-body radiography of SCP-XXXX reveal no apparent internal bodily systems.
The space of which its respective bodily functions would normally take place is occupied by around 52 kilograms of SCP-XXXX-1. SCP-XXXX-1 is a low explosive black powder of undetermined composition with an explosive yield ranging from █ grams to █████ megatons of TNT per cubic centimeter (estimated). SCP-XXXX-1 is normally dark black in coloration, with lighter hues denoting less yield. SCP-XXXX-1 is accessed from underneath SCP-XXXX's epidermis, while secondary sources are found where external bodily fluids are normally secreted. Shed skin cells and hair also convert to SCP-XXXX-1 particles.
SCP-XXXX is capable of recovering lost internal SCP-XXXX-1 mass over time along with repairing its outward appearance. This process is accelerated when introduced to chemical compound KNO3, or potassium nitrate. The substance also doubles as nourishment. Sufficient loss in SCP-XXXX-1 is enough to incapacitate SCP-XXXX until it has recovered adequate mass.
All firearms in contact with SCP-XXXX have had their cartridge propellant replaced by SCP-XXXX-1. Bullets discharged using SCP-XXXX-1 display exaggerated characteristics, including significantly higher muzzle velocity upwards of ███ kilometers per second. Bullets are not observed to transfer kinetic energy up until contact with an organic entity, whereupon it will cause physical trauma ranging from ruptured organs to immediate displacement of the subject's body mass3.
SCP-XXXX has displayed extensive knowledge regarding Foundational assets, most notably regarding Mobile Task Force Epsilon-6 "Village Idiots" and actively makes reference of them in interviews. Information disclosed by SCP-XXXX is not to be considered a data breach. SCP-XXXX displays extreme aversion when asked for further elaboration.

Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Researcher Connolly
Foreword:
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Researcher Salieri Hayde
Foreword: This interview was the first conducted prior to SCP-XXXX's initial containment achieved two weeks ago. Doctor Hayde was sent to interview SCP-XXXX as a means to provide psychological evaluation and SCP-XXXX-1 sampling. D-3278 was used for the sampling process.
Dr. Hayde: Good evening, SCP-XXXX.
SCP-XXXX: Oh, what is it this time? I've told you, multiple times, that I really d-.
SCP-XXXX glances through the observation window.
SCP-XXXX: You're not Connolly.
Dr. Hayde: No, I'm not. My name is Researcher Salieri Hayde.
SCP-XXXX: And you're here for?
Dr. Hayde: I'm here for the collection of SCP-XXXX-1 samples. By venipuncture. Is it alright if we enter your containment?SCP-XXXX: I don't see why not. But I was made aware that I'm not allowed to have anyone else in here.
Dr. Hayde: Restricted, but not completely barred. I was granted permission from Site Director Finnegan under these circumstances.
SCP-XXXX: You can come in if you want to.
Dr. Hayde: Alright.
At this point, SCP-XXXX's initial containment cell doors were opened. D-3278 reluctantly passes through the opening holding a protective equipment case.
D-3278: Uhh, it's like a freezer in here.
Dr. Hayde: (To SCP-XXXX) I was told you had a chair somewhere around here, with armrests.
SCP-XXXX: I do.
Wooden scraping can be heard from the containment cell
Dr. Hayde: Alright, I'm gonna have to ask you to take a seat before we begin the procedure.
SCP-XXXX complies. The entity proceeds to roll up its sleeves to present its forearms
SCP-XXXX: What's it for?
Dr. Hayde: Huh?
SCP-XXXX: What are you going to do with the stuff in me?
Dr. Hayde: (Clicks tongue) I'm afraid that's above your classification. (To D-3278) You can start.
D-3278 opens the case containing the empty sample tubes.
D-3278: Hey, Doctor Hayde?
Dr. Hayde: Yes? What's wrong?
D-3278: I'm not a nurse or anything, but I'm pretty sure that people had veins we're supposed to use to, uh, get blood and stuff.
Dr. Hayde: The entity doesn't have veins. Have the needle reach about a millimeter in the forearm, then start drawing SCP-XXXX-1. We need five vials.
D-3278: Okay. Alright. Hey, lady, you okay going through with this? These needles are awfully wide.
SCP-XXXX: I'm fine, thanks.
At this point, D-3278 injects SCP-XXXX with a needle attached to a sampling bottle and starts drawing SCP-XXXX-1 instances.
D-3278: Jesus, what the the fuck. Is that sand?
Dr. Hayde: The qualities of SCP-XXXX are irrelevant to your knowledge. Please continue the procedure.
D-3278: Why's it black?
Dr. Hayde: I said t-
SCP-XXXX: Please be quiet. (At D-3278) Another word and I'm shoving that needle into your eyes.
Silence for approximately fifteen seconds.
Dr. Hayde: That comment was unnecessary, SCP-XXXX.
SCP-XXXX: I don't care. He's being annoying and smells like sweat.
D-3278: And you smell like rotten eggs. (Pauses) Oh. Oh shit.
Dr. Hayde: D-3278, if you could complete the operation without further remarks I can assure you it will go a lot smoother.
D-3278: Yeah. Yeah, alright Doctor.
No further conversation is held until D-3278 extracts the remaining needed vials of SCP-XXXX-1.
D-3278: I'm finished, Doctor Hayde.
Dr. Hayde: Excellent, please proceed outside of the containment area.
D-3278 closes the protective case and hastily departs from SCP-XXXX-1's cell zone. Containment blast doors were observed to close.
SCP-XXXX: Am I seriously going to expect more people like him in the future?
Dr. Hayde: (Chuckles) Fortunately no. We only needed that much.
SCP-XXXX: It also means I won't be seeing anyone else for the rest of my stay here, right?
Dr. Hayde: What's wrong with me?
SCP-XXXX: Oh, nothing. I kinda just expected someone from E-6. Not a doctor.
Dr. Hayde: I'm sorry, but Director Finnegan explicitly said not to contact Epsilon-6 operatives.
SCP-XXXX: And why's that?
Dr. Hayde: Well, as far as they're concerned, you're supposed to be dead. Charlotte Kingsley was killed in action following the latest mission report.
SCP-XXXX: (Silence)
Dr. Hayde: (Quickly) Uh- I mean, that's not to say that you aren't. It's just that people have a hard time believing you're not someone else. We can't exactly take biological samples and have it tested because of your outlying, ah, condition shall we say?
SCP-XXXX: What about you? D'you think I'm not "Charlotte Kingsley"?
Dr. Hayde: I have my own beliefs, and I have my full confidence that you are who you are.
SCP-XXXX: Right.
Dr. Hayde: So, what do you usually do in your free time?
SCP-XXXX: Not a whole lot. It gets really dull most times.
Dr. Hayde: And your entertainment apparatuses aren't interesting to you anymore?
SCP-XXXX: They aren't. It feels weird, in a way. It feels like I'm biding my time here without all the stuff that I'm usually held responsible for.
Dr. Hayde: And what were those responsibilities?
SCP-XXXX: Assignments. I'm sure you've had your fair share of mission logs.
Dr. Hayde: I do.
SCP-XXXX: In a way, it's a relief. I don't have to put up with researchers telling us to go through with whatever we had to go through.
Dr. Hayde: And being discharged from the Mobile Task Force doesn't concern you at all?
SCP-XXXX: I don't know. Others definitely had it worse than I did. But I do know that sitting in a sterilized room all day is really boring. I wanna do something else. I can't be the only humanoid on site can I?
Dr. Hayde: Actually, you are. Your specific traits are a considered a hazard to the workplace. We can't really let you out of your containment cell. The guys up front says we risk too much.
SCP-XXXX: Yeah, I can see that.
Dr. Hayde: Uh, look, I gotta go. We can arrange for another meeting tomorrow. I can come by and visit during my break if you'd like.
SCP-XXXX: That would be nice.
Dr. Hayde: See you then.
SCP-XXXX: Hey, before you leave. Sorry if I'm acting up today. I haven't really adjusted to my new quartering arrangements. Tell them the suit doesn't come off.
Dr. Hayde: (Nods) I'll let them know.
At this point Dr. Hayde leaves the observation window. SCP-XXXX is viewed staring at the ballistic door before getting up.

Sent: 17:28, █████ ██, ████Subject: SCP-XXXX-1 Sampling Issues
Body: Senior Researcher Matthews,
The recent batch of SCP-XXXX-1 samples came in about a week ago. The vials that were contained within the case are enough to start chemical analysis, and possibly explosives testing if we can get it approved. But, we've had to undergo further chemical testing with the instances before we could proceed. The results were concerning. To myself and my colleagues.
The exact quantities have been forwarded to your personal terminal. The instances themselves are heading into deep storage at Warehouse 108, kept in check by SRA. When brought to baseline reality, SCP-XXXX-1 acts similarly to traditionally milled gunpowder. Water soluble.
I know that destruction of SCP instances is against our ideals, but SCP-XXXX creates an unlimited supply of this stuff. It would be for the best.
I've updated the SCP description appropriately. Please consider.
Sincerely, Researcher Lucas Walton
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Researcher Salieri Hayde

SCP-XXXX: What else do you do when you're not visiting me?
Dr. Hayde: What? Like during break?
SCP-XXXX: No, I meant- you're a psychiatrist too right?
Dr. Hayde: I am, yes.
SCP-XXXX: So there are other humanoid skips here too.
Dr. Hayde: Not necessarily. You're the only one here that isn't some sort of object.SCP-XXXX: Right, but you have met other anomalous humanoids on other sites?
Dr. Hayde: Yes, I have, why?
SCP-XXXX: Nothing. I just kinda thought it was funny. To think I worked closely with things that looked human but weren't. Only to become one of them.Dr. Hayde: Does that concern you a lot?
SCP-XXXX: Little bit. Speaking of which, I met a girl once like that. While we were stationed at Site-17 for a bit.
Dr. Hayde: Really? What about her?
SCP-XXXX: Well, I've never actually met her. More like perused her containment files. It mentioned something about Alpha-9.Dr. Hayde: I see. What about it?
SCP-XXXX: Don't they usually train anomalous humanoids?
Dr. Hayde: I'm not in a position to say anything, but I've heard about things like that, yeah. Why, do you want to join them?
SCP-XXXX: What? No. It's just… (sighs) I don't know.
Dr. Hayde: What don't you know?
SCP-XXXX: Being part of a task force again. I've met and worked with people closely. Only for them to be dead the next day.Dr. Hayde: I see.
SCP-XXXX: Do you know what that's like?
Dr. Hayde: I've known people that died. Not here though. Not yet anyways. I'd imagine its hard for you, but I've never experienced anything like that. So I can't say.
Silence.
Dr. Hayde: Were you afraid of dying when you were deployed in Epsilon-6?
SCP-XXXX: Sometimes. Not anymore though.Dr. Hayde: Why not?
SCP-XXXX: Because I know if I did I'd probably kill others too.
Dr. Hayde: (Nods) Yeah, I can see that.
Silence.Dr. Hayde: (Clears throat) Hey, next time I come for another interview session, I was thinking maybe I could bring up some games from the rec room. Know anything that you might like?
SCP-XXXX: I liked playing chess with some of the people in E-6, what about you?Dr. Hayde: I've never been a stickler for strategy games, but we'll see.

Addendum SCP-XXXX.2: Related Firearms Testing Transcripts
Weapon Utilized: Beretta M9, one magazine containing one round of ammunition.
Target Subject: One ballistics dummy
Testing Procedure: SCP-XXXX is instructed to fire upon the assigned target subject using all given rounds of ammunition in order to trigger SCP-XXXX-1.
Experiment Transcript: SCP-XXXX enters the containment chamber housing the ballistics dummy. SCP-XXXX is ordered to discharge all given rounds into the dummy. SCP-XXXX complies and successfully lands all discharged shots nearing the center of the target subject. Technical deviations from normal firearm capabilities were not observed.
Weapon Utilized: Beretta M9, one magazine containing one round of ammunition.
Target Subject: D-58193
Testing Procedure: SCP-XXXX is instructed to fire upon the assigned target subject once.
Experiment Transcript: SCP-XXXX enters the containment chamber with D-58193. SCP-XXXX is ordered to terminate D-58193 via single shot from given firearm. SCP-XXXX complies and discharges one round from the Beretta M9 handgun. D-58193 is successfully incapacitated from a gunshot wound to the lower hip and is left on the testing floor for three minutes.
D-58193 expresses his physical discomfort while attempting to stop the flow of ensuing bleeding. Subject later expires of exsanguination.
Notes: The initial combustion of SCP-XXXX-1 propellant has completely warped the gun barrel from further use. Muzzle velocity was observed to reach ██ kilometers per second. Despite this, the bullet appeared to have embedded normally.
Weapon Utilized: Beretta M9, one magazine containing one round of ammunition.
Target Subject: D-47891
Testing Procedure: In order to further research the conditions of which SCP-XXXX-1 affects standard firearm ammunition, SCP-XXXX is ordered to terminate D-47891 via single shot through the lower thigh.
Experiment Transcript: SCP-XXXX enters the testing chamber containing D-47891, who was previously attempting to converse with the testing group on the purpose of his attendance. At this point, D-47891 is interrupted by SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX was observed to take aim at D-47891's head who was repeatedly questioning SCP-XXXX's intents to fire.
One gunshot was heard from the testing chamber. Upon projectile contact, D-47891 violently explodes causing testing chambers to be coated with seared flesh and organs. SCP-XXXX vocalizes its extreme distress by shouting expletives while attempting to stem the flow of SCP-XXXX-1 as a result of flying bone shrapnel. SCP-XXXX was later recovered after sufficient SCP-XXXX-1 samples were taken.
Notes: SCP-XXXX was requested to terminate the subject immediately prior to introduction with D-47891. Researchers Salieri Hayde and Senior Researcher Elijah Matthews were placed in the medical unit to treat minor blast injuries from sustaining blast overpressure shockwaves.
Weapon Utilized: Beretta M9, one magazine containing one round of ammunition.
Target Subject: D-59103
Testing Procedure: To further research the circumstances of which SCP-XXXX-1 affects firearm projectiles, D-59103 had been outfitted with kevlar reinforced armor as SCP-XXXX-1 affected firearms do not pierce non-living materials such as cloth.
Experiment Transcript: Non-applicable.
Notes: Testing halted as a result of SCP-XXXX's uncooperative nature when told to carry out the fourth test.
Interviewed: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Researcher Morgan Connolly
Foreword: The interview was conducted following SCP-XXXX's refusal to carry out the fourth firearms testing procedure. Researcher Morgan Connolly was sent in temporary replacement of Researcher Salieri Hayde.

[SUPERFLUOUS DATA REDACTED]
Dr. Connolly: So how many people know what your middle name is?
SCP-XXXX: Just him.
Dr. Connolly: Doctor Salieri Hayde?
SCP-XXXX: Yes, unless you are to count RAISA. But unfortunately my personnel files are not for your disclosure.
Dr. Connolly: How often have you been seeing him?SCP-XXXX: As long as he wished.
Dr. Connolly: And what do you think of him?
SCP-XXXX: He's polite.Dr. Connolly: Was your experience with him satisfactory? As a psychiatrist?
SCP-XXXX: He does his job and knows his boundaries. I can't say anything else. What are you getting at?
Dr. Connolly: I have no doubts that you have questions about why I'm here today.
SCP-XXXX: I asked at the start.Dr. Connolly: Doctor Salieri Hayde has been placed in the infirmary. I'm here to fulfill his role in his absence.
SCP-XXXX: He's still in the medical ward?
Dr. Connolly: Unfortunately so. You've made quite the fiasco during your third visit to the firing range.
SCP-XXXX: Is that what it's called now? A firing range?Dr. Connolly: The specific term is 'testing chamber' but I was made aware that you preferred more general descriptions.
SCP-XXXX: What about it?
Dr. Connolly: I want to know why you won't go through with the third testing.
SCP-XXXX: Are you asking me why I'm choosing not to kill a third D-Class?
Dr. Connolly: Essentially.
SCP-XXXX: Well, you see doctor, it's quite simple. It's because I don't want to.Dr. Connolly: You are being presented with what represents the worst qualities of humanity. It seems questionable to us that you are refraining from terminating another one of them.
SCP-XXXX: Yes, but with drugs they tend to forget who they were. Dont they?Dr. Connolly: I was aware that you are a self-proclaimed task force operative?
SCP-XXXX: Self-proclaimed? Listen, I-
Dr. Connolly: If any of what you claim to be is true, I don't see the problem. Why would such a person be faced with an obstacle so common in their work environment?
SCP-XXXX: Just wait a minute. Who the hell do you think you are? Are you assuming that my job is to kill people?Dr. Connolly: Well, I had assu-
SCP-XXXX: You assume nothing. That's all you're good at. Assumption. You can read and write, but you will never be in a position to assume what we do out there.
Dr. Connolly: We're detracting from the main topic here. What I wanted to know is why you didn't shoot.
SCP-XXXX: Why I didn- why I didn't shoot? You sadistic [EXPLETIVE], do you really think I'm gonna carry out whatever the [EXPLETIVE] you want!
Dr. Connolly: This behavior is unwarranted, if you do not maintain professionalism we will terminate this interview.
SCP-XXXX: Unwarranted? I'll [EXPLETIVE] show you warranted you little-
At this point, the entity starts to attempt to break free of its cuffs chained to the interviewing table causing SCP-XXXX-1 instances to flow from its wrists. The entity proceeds to shout multiple obscenities directed towards Dr. Conolly.
Dr. Conolly: Guards? Guards! We have a containment breach at [UNINTELLIGIBLE]
The doors leading to the interviewing hall burst open and two security personnel are seen restraining SCP-XXXX while attempting to remove the attached cuffs from the table.

Salieri Hayde knocks in the ballistic glass to get the attention of SCP-XXXX, who was attempting to journal. A waltz can be heard softly emanating from the room.
Dr. Hayde: I borrowed a chess board from the game room.
SCP-XXXX: Oh. Hey, Sal.
Dr. Hayde: You look pretty beaten up. What's wrong?SCP-XXXX: I don't know. I think I'm just having a really bad week.
Dr. Hayde: Why's that?
SCP-XXXX: I-I don't think people know that I'm… me.
Dr. Hayde: I don't follow. What do you mean?SCP-XXXX: The people in charge of gun tests. They don't see me for what I am. More like what I'm supposed to be. They think I'm some moral deprived hitman.
Dr. Hayde: What?
SCP-XXXX: I've had to kill two D-Class two weeks ago. One day they were there, and they told me to shoot. So I did. One of them exploded in front of me. It took me awhile to… to take out all the bone shrapnel from my chest.The entity inhales shakily.
Dr. Hayde: That's awful.SCP-XXXX: (Nods) Yeah. It was. They tried to pressure me into doing it again, but I told them no. That was it. Final straw. Then they told me I wouldn't get to see you again.
Dr. Hayde: Well, I think it's safe to say they don't have control over visits. But at least it's over, right?SCP-XXXX: I thought so, too. Then, they pulled me in for questioning. Asked me why I didn't want to follow through with it in the first place.
Dr. Hayde: You made the right choice.SCP-XXXX: The others don't seem to think I have one.
Silence
SCP-XXXX: During the interview, I got pushed around by some dolt who thinks he knows everything about me. MTF units, and the lot. Does he really think I work as an assassin?
Dr. Hayde: Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Conolly has been through a lot. Disassociated with a lot of people. It's how he gets through with the day.
SCP-XXXX: Still doesnt do me justice. Look what I've done to you.Dr. Hayde: Shot term hearing loss. It's nothing, really. It wasn't your fault, either. We pushed you too hard.
SCP-XXXX: You could've died from that.
Dr. Hayde: We've suspended testing indefinitely. You can rest now, can't you?
SCP-XXXX: Isolation isn't rest.
Dr. Hayde: You're right.
Silence.
Dr. Hayde: I've been wanting to tell you something but now under these circumstances, I think it's best if I don't .SCP-XXXX: Tell me.
Dr. Hayde: I'm going to be reassigned to Site-17 at some point. I don't know when.
SCP-XXXX: Oh, don't do that.
Dr. Hayde: I know that you might be upset, but I can't really do anything about it. Please understand.SCP-XXXX: You're gonna break me. Out of everyone else, why did you get picked?
Dr. Hayde: Same reason why they picked me for you, apparently.SCP-XXXX: For what? Your conversations flow like syrup. You suck at chess and card games, even when its 'go fish'. Your taste in movies are abysmal. They can't possibly pick you.
Researcher Hayde lets out a small chortle.
SCP-XXXX: You can't go.
Dr. Hayde: I know. But I don't have a choice, Charlotte. I'm going to get rotated out with an equivalent researcher.
SCP-XXXX: You don't know what they'll do to me here.
Dr. Hayde: You can't come with me, even if I wanted you to.SCP-XXXX: I don't want to spend another minute here. For all you know, they're gonna start jacking me up with amnestics, and you know that those-
Dr. Hayde: I know. I know they don't work.
SCP-XXXX: What am I going to do?
Dr. Hayde: I'll think of something.SCP-XXXX: I trust you.
Dr. Hayde: I trust you not to lose your head until I get back, okay?
SCP-XXXX: Okay, I promise. You're the best.
Dr. Hayde: Before I go, d'you mind telling me what the name of the music is? The one you're playing?
SCP-XXXX: It's called The Second Waltz. By Dmitri Shostakovich.Dr. Hayde: It's beautiful.
SCP-XXXX: (Softly) Yeah, it is.
Researcher Salieri Hayde flashes a weak smile before shutting down the communications panel and departing the containment zone.

Addendum SCP-XXXX.4: Logs Regarding Procedure-XXXX-CHARLEMAGNE

Sent: 21:53, █████ ██, ████Subject: New Project Proposal Regarding SCP #XXXX
Body: Site Director Finnegan,
In recent light of my previous interview with SCP-XXXX, I've taken to exploring other methods of which to relieve it from the stress thats being derived from our workplace. The entity responded negatively to my recent visitation, expressing needs to withdraw from its containment cell as a result of less than optimistic views from other containment staff.
This will inevitably lead to flaws in long term containment, since the entity is already discontent at its current situation only four months since initial containment was achieved. As we've cleared before, the entity is not biological and therefore cannot be subjected to drug alternatives to force contentedness, nor do I think that would be effective otherwise. Leisure privileges held outside of its containment cell is out of the question, especially considering its traits.
Therefore, I would like to propose a procedure dedicated to relieving SCP-XXXX of its SCP status. I believe that this is the only way to at least relieve it of its suffering. Although it would warrant a reclassification of neutralized. I know that it's against our pillars to carry out such a procedure, but it has to be the most humane way of doing so.
Needless to say, it also requires you to sanction the use of a Scranton Reality Anchor. The procedure draft has been sent to your personal terminal. Please consider.
Best regards,
Researcher Salieri Hayde

Subject: RE: New Project Proposal Regarding SCP #XXXX
Body: I'll allow it, under several conditions.
You will attend the project alongside the rest of the research and development personnel under classification Level-3/XXXX and above, with Senior Researcher Andrew Matthews presiding as team leader. I've edited the document to accommodate these requirements.
I will sign my approval when the remainder of the assigned testing group has agreed to the current editions. That includes agreeing to your newly held responsibilities.
The procedure will not commence until the transfer of funds towards the Logistics Department for the transportation of a Scranton Reality Anchor has been completed on your behalf. We're not helping you on this one. Financially, anyways.

Procedure XXXX-CHARLEMAGNE
Project Designation: Procedure XXXX-CHARLEMAGNE
Primary Directive: To extricate SCP-XXXX from anomalous identification by surgically removing internal SCP-XXXX-1 instances through the use of Scranton Reality Anchor.
Personnel Involved: Containment Specialist Elijah Colemann, Researcher Morgan Conolly, Researcher Salieri Hayde, Senior Researcher Elijah Matthews, and Researcher Lucas Walton. Undertaken by written permission from Site Director Dallas Finnegan.
Anomalous Items Used: SCP-XXXX
Relevant Materials Used: One Scranton Reality Anchor (SRA)
Funding Required: $2,719 US dollars for transportation of the nearest unused SRA unit. $789,482 US dollars replacement fee in the event of unit malfunction. Fulfilled by Researcher Salieri Hayde.
Planned Procedure:
Phase One
I. The entity designated SCP-XXXX must be notified of the project proposal and its intentions and must agree to preliminary briefing statements prior to procedure execution.
II. To begin first stages of Procedure XXXX-CHARLEMAGNE, the testing chambers of previously disbanded firearms tests are to be retrofitted to accommodate a Scranton Reality Anchor. This process is to be overseen by Containment Specialist Elijah Colemann and be completed no less than three weeks subsequent to procedure approval.
III. One bed within the Scranton Reality Anchor's area of effect must be placed for use by SCP-XXXX to experience changes in hume level.
Phase Two
IV. Once the entity has been secured, the Scranton Reality Anchor will be directed to emit Hume radiation levels of baseline reality in order to isolate SCP-XXXX from SCP-XXXX-1's effect.
V. Medical Department surgeons will then be authorized to enter the containment area to perform surgical removal of SCP-XXXX-1 instances from SCP-XXXX. All instances must be kept in the effective Hume field of the Scranton Reality Anchor at all times.
Phase Three
VI. Once all instances of SCP-XXXX-1 are confirmed to be removed from SCP-XXXX body, SCP-XXXX will be immediately removed from the Scranton Reality Anchor's area of effect. SCP-XXXX will then undergo proper reclassification of Neutralized and, once cleared from any and all anomalous effects, will be given the title of "Charlotte Kingsley".
Failsafe Contingencies:
I. As sedatives have, by nature of SCP-XXXX, been proven unfruitful, the bed containing SCP-XXXX must be outfitted with leather straps and be fitted to SCP-XXXX. This is to prevent any interference during Phase 2 in the event that SCP-XXXX regains the ability to feel under the influence of the Scranton Reality Anchor.
II. During the surgery process, no less than three security personnel armed with riot control shotguns capable of delivering 12 gauge rubber buckshot rounds must accompany the surgeons at all times.
III. In the event that SCP-XXXX breaches the leather straps on the bedding, the medical department personnel attending to SCP-XXXX must immediately evacuate the area. Upon perceiving any hostile intents, the aforementioned guards are authorized to engage SCP-XXXX until the entity has been successfully detained.
IV. For whatever reason deemed necessary, the Scranton Reality Anchor is wired to be immediately cut from Site-09's main power grid and being shut down in the event that the procedure goes awry. This will effectively cause SCP-XXXX to revert back to its anomalous state.

[BEGIN LOG]
Dr. Matthews: Alright before we commence, does anyone have anything to say?
Dr. Hayde: No.
Dr. Conolly: We've signed the agreement, let's just get on with it.
Dr. Matthews: Researcher Walton?
Dr. Lucas: I question my own attendance here, personally.
Dr. Matthews: You were chosen as a chemist. No doubt you have experience in SCP-XXXX-1's qualities. Now, if nobody else has anything to say…
Dr. Matthews motions to Dr. Hayde to open SCP-XXXX's containment cell leading to the Scranton Reality Anchor containment.
Dr. Matthews: Let's begin.
Ballistic doors are heard opening. At this point, SCP-XXXX cautiously enters the housing unit. The entity makes a brief surveillance of the room, pausing at the bed stationed near the Scranton Reality Anchor. The ballistic door closes.
Dr. Hayde: Good evening, SCP-XXXX. Please take a seat.
The entity examines the leather holding straps on the bed.
SCP-XXXX: That's intense.
