Item #: SCP-XXXX
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-XXXX currently resides in █████ Forest, Germany. A 10 kilometer perimeter surrounding SCP-XXXX-01 is to be established and maintained as a region of operation for the Foundation, under the guise of a Nature Preserve, and all civilians are to be barred entry.
All on-site personnel must refrain from wearing military or laboratory attire. Additionally, openly carrying an weapons or items resembling weapons is strictly forbidden
Following Incident XXXX-01, no Foundation personnel may enter SCP-XXXX-01.
Description:
SCP-XXXX is the designation for an anomalous swarm of Apis Cerana (common honey bees) discovered by the Foundation in 1982. Instances of SCP-XXXX are much larger than their non-anomalous counterparts, and exhibit heightened levels of aggression towards humans, specifically children. Additionally, all instances of SCP-XXXX are red in coloration, and possess DNA identical to that of Homo sapiens. Most instances reside within SCP-XXXX-01, a massive beehive-like structure built over the remnants of a 1940s-era school house. The inside of SCP-XXXX-01, accessible through the doorway of the initial structure, is composed of a series of underground chambers and tunnels of a currently unknown magnitude.

Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Following careful consideration, SCP-XXXX, as well as instances A and B, have been given free roam of the light containment zone of Site 19 so long as none of them come into contact with SCP-529. Otherwise, the three instances are to be kept together in a standard-sized containment chamber bearing miniature versions of the furnishings used in standard humanoid containment chambers. Since being contained, SCP-XXXX as well as instances A and B have displayed a passion for solving mysteries. To keep the entities entertained and maintain the guise that they are employees of the SCP Foundation, staff are encouraged to entertain the “cases” the instances intend to solve by providing encouragement and cheese to the mice, so long as the mysteries do not endanger the safety, secrecy, or mission of the Foundation. Scavenger hunts or similar activities may occasionally be provided for enrichment purposes.
Additionally, SCP-XXXX is not permitted access to toothpicks. Cheese may be used to bribe the entity into giving up any toothpicks it obtains. Parmesan is preferred.
As of Incident XXXX-A, the remains of SCP-XXXX are to be buried in the Site-19 cemetery.
Description: SCP-XXXX is the designation for a sapient Mus Musculus (Common House Mouse) with affinity for solving mysteries. The entity is capable of speech with a thick British accent, and identifies itself as “Detective Mousetache”. (Note that the whiskers of SCP-XXXX are extremely thick and black in coloration, giving it the appearance of having a mustache. The name is believed to be derived from this appearance.) SCP-XXXX has requested Victorian-Era furnishings to be placed within its containment cell. The entity possesses a brown-white splotched coat, often walks bipedally on its hind legs, and has an affinity for wearing human-esque clothes. Such attire primarily consists of:
- A large red handkerchief, often tied around the subject’s neck, meant to resemble a superhero’s cape.
- A yellow origami hat created by Dr. Underwood from a post-it note during her lunch break.
- A wristwatch stolen from the bedside of Dr. Ross
"I've paid Dr. Ross for the watch. SCP-XXXX can keep it."~ Researcher Sylvia Black
- A toothpick stolen from the cafeteria, often used as a sword against SCP-529. Because of this, numerous toothpicks have been confiscated in order to prevent injury to either SCP.
Discovery: SCP-XXXX was discovered at a Fast Food Restaurant in Berkley, California. SCP-XXXX had jumped onto the counter and ordered "A cheeseburger with only cheese". Following a period of distress by the employee which entailed the smacking of SCP-XXXX with a broomstick, Agent Underwood (who was on her lunch break) intervened and brought SCP-XXXX into Foundation custody without further incident, although she did purchase a cheeseburger made entirely of cheese prior to leaving the restaurant. Amnestics were later distributed to all civilians present during the incident.
Interview Log XXXX-1:
Foreward: The following interview occurred following SCP-XXXX's entry into Foundation custody. SCP-XXXX is located in a cage with Dr. Underwood seated across from him.
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX
Interviewer: Dr. Underwood<Begin Log>
Dr. Underwood: Hello, SCP-XXXX. How are you doing today?
SCP-XXXX How does it look like I'm doing in this bloody cage? I demand you release me this instant, ast damnedig!
Dr. Underwood: If you do cooperate, I'll try to see if there's any way I can make you stay here more comfortable. But I'll need you to answer some questions first.
SCP-XXXX: Where the hell am I supposed to use the loo? This is inadequate service. I demand an upgrade to the luxury suite!
Dr. Underwood: We aren't a hotel, SCP-XXXX. Now, I need you to answer some questions.
SCP-XXXX: I need to take a piss, you secondhand muppet!
Dr. Underwood: Oh, um, can't you just use a corner of your cage? We'll be sure to clean it later.
SCP-XXXX: The Bloody Hell do you mean? Just crap out here in the open? Like bloody animal?
Dr. Underwood: Well I'm-
SCP-XXXX: You'd bloody better give me some tea and biscuits! Or you'll regret the day you were born!Dr. Underwood: We'll see about that. But first, I need you to answer some questions. First off, do you have a preferred you'd like me to call you?
SCP-XXXX: That's Detective Mousetache to you, you cheese-stabbing twat.
Dr. Underwood: Very well, Detective Mousetache. And do you mind telling me where you're from exactly?
SCP-XXXX: Why, I'm from Mousetropolis! Tis a beacon of infrastructure for all mousekind. A wonder of the modern world. Only the finest mice in all the land reside there, including yours truly.
Dr. Underwood: I haven't ever heard of Mousetropolis. Would you mind telling me where it is?
SCP-XXXX: Of course you've never heard of it! Do you have a wet sneaker for a brain? You're an outsider to my world. Where I'm from, your kind are long gone. My species simply took over after that. An Sk-class dominance shift scenario, I believe your kind it's called.
Dr. Underwood: How did you learn that term? It's exclusive to the SCP Foundation.SCP-XXXX: Well, that's because I'm part of the SCP.
Dr. Underwood: Pardon? I've never heard of the Foundation employing any mice before.SCP-XXXX: A ydych chi'n ddarn o lanedydd golchi dillad llysnafeddog? Of course your dimension's Foundation doesn't hire mice. I'm part of my dimension's SCP: The Secret Cat Police. We're dedicated to keeping the cats away from the general public. Can't allow them to know that cats exist. The sheer chaos and panic it would cause would be unparalleled. It is the duty the SCP to defend our species from those horrid beasts, and I shall fight till my last paw, my last whisker, to ensure the safety of Mousetropolis!
Dr. Underwood: Cats? Your organization is dedicated to fighting cats?
SCP-XXXX: Affirmative. Cats are a serious threat to my kind. It's only right we keep all of mousekind safe from those filthy creatures.Dr. Underwood: If I may ask, how did you arrive at this dimension? Did you come here on purpose?
SCP-XXXX: I'm a detective! Coc y gath! I'm here to solve a mystery. But the rest of that information is classified, and as such, I won't be able to provide any further details. After all, I'm sure you'll understand, being a part of an SCP Foundation yourself.
Dr. Underwood: Well, do understand that the more information the Foundation possesses, the better we may be able to assist you.
SCP-XXXX: Thank you for your offer, but I must get going. After all, I am here on a mission.
Dr. Underwood: I'm sorry, Detective Mousetache, but for your own safety, I cannot allow you to leave this property for the time being.
SCP-XXXX: Listen, mada'am. You forget who you're talking too. I'll have you know that I'm a very high-ranking of the SCP Foundation. False imprisonment of a mouse of my status bears quite hefty disciplinary action, regardless of your species or home dimension.
Dr. Underwood: Alright, what about a compromise? I'd like to give you an offer of employment, here at the Foundation. You'll get a private quarters, a paycheck, and plenty of um… mysteries for you to solve. Yes, mysteries! Very important mysteries, vital for the Foundation's functionality. We'd be honored to have a mouse of such high status such as yourself on our team.
SCP-XXXX: I'm flattered, truly. But I don't work cheap. And my loyalty to the SCP of metropolis is unshakeable! I'm sorry, but no amount of money or mysteries will convince me to work for a heinous primate that-
Dr. Underwood: What if we gave you cheese?
SCP-XXXX: How much cheese are we talking?
Dr. Underwood: As much as you'd like! Any kind of cheese in the world. Just say the name, and its yours!
SCP-XXXX: Well, I doubt the SCP Foundation will mind if I take a few vacation days here. I'm sure I can work it out with them later. Now, when do I get that cheese?
Dr. Evergreen: If you'd like, you can eat this cheeseburger I got for you.
SCP-XXXX: It's a deal!<End Log>
Afterword: SCP-XXXX was released from its cage and allowed to consume the cheeseburger purchased by Dr. Underwood, after which it was moved to a standard containment cell. SCP-XXXX was later provided with a false contract of employment as a "private investigator" for the Foundation as a part of its Containment Procedures, and is to continue being provided with "mysteries" and be paid with cheese in order to maintain such a guise.
Log XXXX-A:
The following is a log of cross-tests between SCP-XXXX and other Safe-Class SCPs housed in/near Site-19, used to determine whether or not SCP-XXXX and its companions could be given free range of Site-19.
Subject: SCP-387 "The Living Lego"
Experiment Log: SCP-XXXX requested to use available parts to construct a Lego man. Subject attempts to do so, but SCP-387 does not animate. SCP-XXXX then constructs a mouse using the available parts, which does animate. SCP-XXXX and the SCP-387 instance then proceed to build a city inhabited by mice made of SCP-387, which SCP-XXXX is the apparent ruler of. Three hours into the experiment, a series of "murders" occur, in which a number of SCP-387 mice instances become inanimate and partially disassembled. SCP-XXXX proceeds to follow a series of disassembled lego parts, which brings him to the lair of a rather large mouse. After a confrontation with the instance, SCP-XXXX discovers that the large mouse is actually a cat disguised as a mouse. He proceeds to slay the SCP-387 cat with a toothpick, after which researchers terminated the experiment.
Afterword: SCP-XXXX requests more exposure time to SCP-387. Playtime with SCP-387 may be used as an incentive for good behavior in the future.
Subject: SCP-131 "The Eye Pods"
Experiment Log: When first exposed to SCP-131 A and B, SCP-XXXX appeared frightened and avoided both instances. However, once researchers introduced a ball into the containment cell, SCP-131-B rolled it towards SCP-XXXX, who then pushed it back. Both SCPs continued this activity for three minutes until SCP-131-A took the ball for itself. SCP-XXXX climbs on top of SCP-131-B and refers to it as his "Steed", and proceeds to chase SCP-131-A throughout the containment chamber in an effort to retrieve the ball.
Afterword: Interaction between both SCPs appears to have a positive and healthy effect on both entities. As such, further socialization between SCP-XXXX and SCP-131 is recommended.
Subject: SCP-507 "The Reluctant Dimensional Hopper"
Experiment Log: SCP-XXXX claims to recognize SCP-507 due to one of his previous visits to SCP-XXXX's home dimension. SCP-XXXX proceeds to berate SCP-507 for six minutes about being a "Filthy, cat-kissing, treacherous primate", after which SCP-XXXX challenged SCP-507 to a duel and attempted to stab him with a toothpick. The experiment was then terminated, and neither SCP suffered any physical injury.
Afterword:After being questioned regarding SCP-XXXX's claims, SCP-507 stated he never saw any creatures resembling SCP-XXXX during any of his travels, but does recall an experience in which (Authorized researchers may view more information regarding this shift by reading BN2-AL6-CTE.) Out of concern for contamination, SCP-XXXX and its surroundings were tested for exposure too Toxoplasma gondii, although no traces were found. The relationship between SCP-XXXX and SCP-507 appears tense, and as such, contact between both entities should remain minimal.
Closing Statements: Following careful consideration, SCP-XXXX, as well as instances A and B have been granted the privilege to reside in the lower light-containment levels of Site-19, so long as it is not exposed to SCP-529, nor any other felids. Cross-testing between SCP-XXXX and SCP-529 "Josie the Half Cat" are strictly forbidden.
My first-ever SCP draft! I'm so excited! I can barely contain myself.
Lord help me.
