Item #:SCP-XXXX

Object Class:Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be guarded by multiple personnel near the 6x6 fence placed in front of the only entrance of SCP-XXXX. A group of three to five D-Class personnel are to enter the SCP-XXXX every month to serve as food or host. In the event that SCP-XXXX-1 is able to escape SCP-XXXX, security personnel are to not engage and instead evacuate to the exclusion zone where heavy duty weaponry and armored vehicles on standby are to immediately fire and destroy the instance of SCP-XXXX-1. It is advised to use high-calibre napalm shells with temperatures reaching 135 degrees as the tough exterior of SCP-XXXX-1 appears to be bulletproof. Due to the largeness of SCP-XXXX, it cannot currently be contained at any site and is currently guarded by multiple soldiers as a makeshift base is made there.

Description:SCP-XXXX is a spatial anomaly that has taken the form of an underground labyrinth
which stretches on for roughly 15 miles but when entered and then activated it seems that it is much bigger and lengthier than the original length. The paths inside have been observed to be twisted to the point of appearing to be similar to a maze.

SCP-XXXX was discovered in /9/24/20██/ after the entire town of ██████, Crete took part in a mini-marathon inside it causing over ████ people to suddenly disappear.
It had been later known that a crater also formed in █████, Crete. After the discovery of the event, Foundation agents began Project Un-Anchoring which wiped every single trace of the town and crater.

Trying to destroy the roof of SCP-XXXX whether inside or out, will work but will only stay open for 20 seconds until the hole fixes itself by anomalous means.

When entering SCP-XXXX a time limit of 1:19 begins and after this, an event known as Fáseis will occur consisting of five phases. The first phase consists of an unexplainable alertness and increases of paranoia, the second phase increases this paranoia into full-blown fear of bulls and a memetic effect begins and making subjects see bull-like figures from far away, the third phase begins with all subjects become distressed as they try to exit SCP-XXXX, the fourth phase consists of the entire labyrinth appearing to loop itself as roads switch and disappear. The final phase consists of the subjects experiencing a large wave of exhaustion as a figure known as SCP-XXXX-1 begins to stalk them, after 1:19 subjects die of exhaustion are consumed and torn apart by SCP-XXXX-1 with parts like the arms and legs appear to be completely ignored by it

SCP-XXXX-1 is a tall, armored, bull-like humanoid with a large axe and shield closely resembling the Greek myth of the Minotaur.
It is theorized that after Incident-505-A that the armor of SCP-XXXX-1 is organic.

Testing Log:

Subjects:D-0017, D-6421 and D-7234 are told to enter SCP-XXXX with cameras in their helmets

Procedure:The D-Class are radioed by command to look for test samples and anything else interesting

Results:D-0017 and D-7234 managed to find an area which was not seen by drone footage containing ancient rusted armor appearing to originate from the Minoan Kingdom along with a piece of paper, the samples are placed in bags and droned away. During the fifth phase all three men are consumed by SCP-XXXX-1

Analysis:"We need more men in there, and we can't let that bull [EXPLETIVE] stop us from getting data"

+ Incident-505-A

The first paper has been translated to
"Kill this monstrosity, no god of ours could have made this, not even Hades, send it to Tartarus and make sure this is not seen by other citizens. Hopefully the prison we built for him can hold strong"
While the second has been translated to
"Do your best to tame the Minotaur so we can use it against the Germans"1
