SCP XXXX
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be monitored at all times via CCTV footage. The bottom of SCP-XXXX is to be chained off, and signage is to be put up that "Roof Access. Entrance is prohibited." The roof of the building is to be masked as a construction site, with wire fencing put up around the perimeter of the roof, and covered in yellow tarp.
Description: SCP-XXXX is located in a 15 story office building, in █████, Ohio. SCP-XXXX was brought to foundation attention through agents imbedded in the Health and Saftey Department when building inspectors discovered a sixteenth flight of stairs in an unused stairwell, henceforth referred to as SCP-XXXX. According to intercepted reports between officials, The top of the stairs "opened into a vast, endless space.", Hereafter classified SCP-XXXX-1. The foundation moved in, and Class A Amnestics were Administered to 7 of the people involved. The 8th member of heath and safety asphyxiated upon entry of SCP-XXXX-1, and his death was covered up.
SCP-XXXX appears to be a normal flight of stairs, and visually matches the other flights in the stairwell. SCP-XXXX appears to be under the effects of some kind of spatial warping. They measure in at the same length and height of their matching flights, but SCP-XXXX-1 has been determined to be located in the upper mesosphere. Work to determine how this is possible is inconclusive.
SCP-XXXX-1 appears to be a large cloud stretching in all directions. This cloud is tangible, and can be stood upon without support. The surface of SCP-XXXX-1 appears to be a derelict waiting area. Explorations of SCP-XXXX-1 have found several items of interest, which were brought in for testing. on expedition SCP-XXXX-D, SCP-XXXX-2 and -3 were discovered.

SCP XXXX
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: -Safe- Keter
Special Containment Procedures: -SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a secure refrigerated room, to slow SCP-XXXXs' rate of decay.- SCP-XXXX is to be enclosed in a secure refrigerated room, with a hermetically sealing door, and separate ventilation from the rest of Site-███. Instances of SCP-XXXX-1 are to be classified as Class-E Personnel. Instances of XXXX-2 that are not to be used for research purposes are to be incinerated on a daily basis. Our three instances of SCP-XXXX-4 are to be routinely trimmed, and the seeds of grown instances of SCP-XXXX-5 are to be removed, and donated to Manna Charitable Foundation, Via the regular channels. The SCP-XXXX-5 instances themselves are to be incinerated.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an apple retrieved from a farmer named ██████ █████. This farmer, who had originally contacted the foundation, was found deceased when squads arrived, appearing to have shot himself. An autopsy showed a large amount of apple seeds in his lungs and stomach. The body was stored in the morgue at Site-███. The blue, plastic, "Igloo" brand cooler was found in a shed behind the house, and as per instructions given by the farmer over the phone, was not opened. Continuing to follow instructions given by the farmer, containment squads razed a small grove of trees to the ground. For posterity, a transcript of the phone call to the foundation has been saved, and may be viewed in Interview-XXXX-A.
A Research Team, led by Senior Researcher Dr. King, was hastily put together, and proceeded with caution, given the apparently Cognito-hazardous nature of the scp, as judged by the information they had. After a full round of testing, it was determined that SCP-XXXXs' cognito hazard was a disease, transmitted by touch and sight, causing those affected to exhibit hallucinations involving apples and apple seeds, which grow more and more and more vivid as the stages progressed, culminating in actual apple seeds, designated SCP-XXXX-2, to manifest around the affected individual. At this stage, the individual is to be referred to as SCP-XXXX-1, and given Class-E quarters in the quarantine zone, where they are required to live until they inevitably expire. It is to be noted that no amnestics can cure this Cognito-hazardous disease. Documentation of testing can be found in Testing-XXXX-A
Following Event-XXXX-Alpha, it was discovered that SCP-XXXX's disease is also transmittable via smell, albeit a much slower acting strain. Due to shared ventilation between SCP-XXXXs' previous containment chamber and the rest of Site-███, Almost all personnel on-site at any point during Event-XXXX-Alpha contracted this strain, and so the foundation lost many highly capable, high level agents and researchers. Only one member of personnel was not affected, as over the week that Event-XXXX-Alpha took place, Senior Researcher Dr. Kevlar, who was present to work on project ███████, happened to have a cold. Documentation of Incident-XXXX-A was readily accessible to any member of the foundation, as it is considered a cautionary tale by most senior personnel, and often referenced when teaching new personnel. However, it is currently under reevaluation and as such is currently restricted. The only transcript of Incident-XXXX-A which is not restricted is a transcript from camera 19, located in Site-███'s cafeteria, of the hours 4 to 6 PM on day 3 of the incident. Tenatively labeled Incident-XXXX-A Cam 19 transcript, it is available to view down below.
