Special Containment Procedures: The general area of SCP-8000 is to be locked away from the public with the SCP-8000 symbol being covered up.

Description: SCP-8000 is a black and red symbol of unknown origin. It appears on a wall around the South Kaibab area of the Grand Canyon. The SCP-8000-A event occurs really rarely. During SCP-8000-A, the symbol glows incredibly bright while multiple bright and white lasers shoot out of the symbol and head for objects that can be considered dangerous to humanity. People report seeing entities of unknown shape. The lasers are too bright to get a clear photo of them, but it's considered impossible to find out what is inside the laser. The length of SCP-8000-A doesn't seem to stop at a certain point. It will continue until its job is complete, at which point the lasers will disintegrate, with no traces of it going anywhere else. The symbol will also dim down and be observable again. When a laser reaches a dangerous entity, the figure will look like it attacks the object, causing the object to disintegrate and vanish. It's unknown if the atoms of the object still exist or not after being disintegrated. The lasers have been seen to be able to go anywhere on Earth, shooting to the other side of the world to eliminate a dangerous entity. The only exception to the disintegration is other SCPs. Any dangerous SCPs that have escaped their containment chamber are forcefully grabbed and teleported back to their chamber.

SCP-8000 was eventually found out to be the reason all SCPs are back in containment after SCP-6004's attack. However, it's existence was still hidden until it became visible in the place it is in today. Everybody within 20m of SCP-8000 were said to have heard a male voice in their head saying “Do not be alarmed. I am here to serve Earth and protect its wildlife. The pathetic beings that live among you have fucked it up enough. But Xitleclese (zz-ie-tuh-kleez) fixed it as much as she could, and now it’s time for me to do my duty. You have shown to not be all evil, and for that I will spare you.”

So far, nothing can stop SCP-8000-A from happening. Luckily, SCP-8000 has amnestic properties that cause those that witness its extermination event to forget ever seeing it.
