Pat Nelmes' SCP

Item #: SCP-3172

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Due to the unpredictable locations that SCP-3172-1 appears, containment is created by a quickly erected perimeter by heavily armed Foundation personnel. This area is small, approximately 15x15 meters in size around the targeted anomaly referred here onward as SCP-3172-2.

No personnel is to enter SCP-3172-2 in fear of instantaneous cellular dispersion in the body. If the location of SCP-3172-2 is an urban or populated zone, all civilians are to be removed from SCP-3172-2 immediately. If resistance is met from civilians to said relocation effort, Foundation personnel are authorized to use lethal force.

Once all human organic matter has been confirmed to have been removed from SCP-3172-2, the next priority of removal from the area; is all other organic material. Due to the complexity of removal in certain biomes, such as forests, and the limited time before SCP-3172-1's appearance, fire teams are authorized to use scorched-earth tactics, allowing organic matter to be removed at a much quicker speed. It is deemed justified to use such methods of containment when in regards to SCP-3172-2, as SCP-3172-1's area of created destruction will be much higher, for each organism left present in SCP-3172-2.

After SCP-3172-1 has been neutralized either by Foundation forces or through natural means, collection and containment must occur as quickly as possible to mitigate the rapid decomposition of SCP-3172-1's body. To help slow decomposition during transport to Foundation research site ██████, the deceased body of the SCP-3172-1 is to be placed in a container of reinforced steel filled with a mixture of water and Ethylene Glycol at temperatures of 273 K.

Safety is not required in the handling of SCP-3172-1's body, but extreme caution is needed in the extraction and securing of the items found attached to or beside SCP-3172-1, which are filed under SCP-3172-█ through SCP-3172-███ (See Addendum 2: Objects Collected). These items will not decompose as SCP-3172-1's body will, as they are not organic, so extra time can be spent onsite recording and retrieving these items. All items taken from SCP-3172-1 are contained at Foundation research site ██████, ensuring the separation of the two from one another.

Containment of SCP-3172 at this time is impossible. Research is ongoing.

Description: SCP-3172 is a highly advanced form of radio wave communication connecting and broadcasting to Foundation radio or cellular devices. SCP–3172 can affect a wide range of devices, in various Foundation locations. Devices include but not limited to ham radios, Foundation PA systems, mobile phones, even once connecting to a █████. Investigation to track the source of SCP–3172’s origination point is met with little success as the signal is comprised of a wave length with such a high frequency it is currently undetectable on the electromagnetic spectrum. Normally any frequency over the gamma ray frequency range would cause great harm to persons in close proximity, but SCP–3172 is seemingly harmless with no cases of damage to Foundation personnel.

Once connection has been established between SCP–3172 and a seemly random Foundation transmission device, an audible message begins to play of a man’s voice that sounds approximately between the ages of 30-50. The message that follows is almost the exact same in each event except for a difference in location, and time.

“Establishing link, frequency checked, timeline connected. RED ALERT! All Foundation forces at site ███████ assemble and mobilize to coordinates ██.████° N, ██.████° W. Unknown anomaly set to appear at ████ hours. Casualty levels, high, if not contained. Sending SCD Squad █████ through to assist.”

Moments after the transmission has been broadcasted the signal is cut and the device connected returns to its normal functions.

Whether or not Foundation personnel are sent to contain the said anomaly, SCP-3172-2 will appear at the message's appointed time and coordinates, destroying all organic matter in its area. SCP-3172-2 is a pulsing cube of energy, blue and purple in color, with extremely high levels of heat and radiation. SCP-3172-2 will continue to remain for exactly 16.7 seconds after appearing and then quickly dissipating revealing within it, SCP-3172-1.

SCP-3172-1 is a multi-formed, multi-being mass of flesh with six or more humanoid (and non-humanoid in cases where animal life was present within SCP-3172-2) sets of heads, limbs, torsos, waists and cloth. SCP-3172-1 is hostile in nature and proceeds to indiscriminately attack the nearest object before it. SCP-3172-1’s main form of attack is its multiple sets of extremities which flail in all directions. The strength of each limb is not examined to be anything but that of a regular human, however SCP-3172-1 can use each one of these limbs in unison during its attempts to grab or kick, thus resulting in higher than normal combat abilities. Therefore close combat with SCP-3172-1 is advised against.

SCP-3172-1’s secondary form of attack, not observed in all cases of SCP-3172-1, is it's use of advanced weaponry attached to or held by SCP-3172-1. These unfamiliar devices which are filed under SCP-3172-█ through ███, are high powered plasma guns resembling advanced military weaponry. The blasts from SCP-3172-█ through ███ are powerful enough to pierce the Foundation force’s advanced Kevlar body armour, cauterizing the area shot instantly. Thankfully, SCP-3172-1 does not appear to be coordinated enough to aim its weaponry, so shots fired from SCP-3172-█ through ██ follow random trajectories.

The sound emitting from SCP-3172-1 is a combined screaming of each and every exposed mouth attached to SCP-3172-1. A combination of this sound and the rapid eye movements suggest that SCP-3172-1 is in great pain, giving researchers the theory that SCP-3172-1 is not a naturally formed body.

After an approximant 10 to 15 minutes after SCP-3172-1’s arrival from SCP-3172-2 it will begin convulsing and die. Screams emitted from SCP-3172-1 are raised in these final moments before SCP-3172-1 dies, giving Foundation personnel a green light for extraction. Caution is still advised however, as even after SCP-3172-1’s body ceases movement, it has been observed that different parts of SCP-3172-1 can die at different times, giving further proof that SCP-3172-1 is not originally one being.

Due to SCP-3172-1’s hostile nature and its limited lifespan, it has thus far been impossible to capture one alive. Research is ongoing to create specialized temperature weapons for Foundation forces that will place SCP-3172-1 in a stasis state, hoping to delay both SCP-3172-1’s death and destruction.

In all cases of SCP-3172-2 and SCP-3172-1 there has been no sightings of the “SCD Squad █████” mentioned in SCP-3172’s transmission.

Addendum 1: Incident Report - 1.

The following is an audio log between Dr. ████ and a civilian named ███████ from the town of ███████, Ontario.

Dr. ████: State your name for the record please.

███████: My name is ███████…..

Dr. ████: Thank you, ███████ can you please explain to me the events of January
██, ████, involving the destruction of ███████ secondary school?

███████: I don’t….I don’t wanna….I dunno….

Dr. ████: I understand putting what you saw into words will be difficult, but I can assure you we’re here to help and every piece of the puzzle you give us will save more lives. So please ███████, do your best.

███████: I don’t wanna bud…please….

Dr. ████: Helps us, help others.

███████: I DON’T KNOW OK! (the civilian slams his fist into the table) Me and some buds were just leaving school to play a little hooky ya know? Then I turn around and this fuck’in big cube thing is coming out of it. The light was so bright. Thought it was an explosion you know? Like, a shooter got in or something. So we froze me and my buds… then I called the cops I swear!

Dr. ████: You’re not in trouble ███████, you did the right thing notifying the police. Then what happened?

███████: Fuck man…FUCK. The light, it was gone and then I…I heard it….oh god….FUCK!

Dr. ████: Please, what did you hear?

███████: THE FUCKIN SCREAMIN BUD! So many screams! Coming from the gym! If I hadn’t listened to my friend, if I hadn't skipped that fucking school meeting….oh god!

Dr. ████: You're doing great ███████, please have some water.

(The civilian takes a sip of his water, hands shaking and spilling some on the table)

███████: god…damn….

Dr. ████: This is hard but your almost done ███████, please what did you see after the light faded?

███████: Ok…the screams started…hundreds of them, all crying, like in pain. It was so loud, then blue jets of stuff starts shooting out of the gym…melting the walls. The whole fuckin thing falls in on itself. It all came crashing down, my buds, they ran. They were smart, me - I fuckin' froze there. Like a 10 ply bitch. Couldn’t fuckin' move my legs I was so scared. God I wish I had run! Then I wouldn’t have seen it…saw them…

Dr. ████: Who did you see?

███████: All of them! The whole fuckin school was…the teachers, the kids like me…fuck I saw my girlfriend ███ there. I SAW HER FUCKIN THERE! They were, melted together, like when you mush all your play-doh together. They were screaming at me! I saw all their eyes looking at me, crying! I swear they were begging for me to help them! THEY WANTED ME TO SAVE THEM BUT HOW COULD I!?! DOC YOU TELL ME HOW I COULD HAVE HELPED THEM!?!?!

(The civilian begins to sob and at this time is too emotional to continue questioning)

Dr. ████: I think were done here. Thank you for your time ███████. Come, we’ll make it all go
away.

███████: …promise?

<End Log>

Closing Statement: After the events of ███████ secondary school, SCP Foundation personnel have been instructed that if an unexpected transmission comes through their devices, it is NOT a prank call or glitch and must be relayed to the Foundation site head immediately.
