Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Foundation front company Sams Citrus Products is to occupy and handle all processing and shipments to and from Orange County Farms. Foundation agents embedded in workforce are to monitor for any further anomalous activity and are equipped with necessary Hume monitoring devices.
Any new instances of SCP-XXXX-A are to be secured and sent to Site 103 for storage. SCP-XXXX-A instances are to be stored in standard anomalous object containment lockers. SCP-XXXX-B is to be held in a standard low level reality bender containment cell in Site 88, with one Scranton Reality Anchor present at all times except for testing purposes. At no point should SCP-XXXX-B come into contact with any SCP-XXXX-A instances unless permission for testing is granted by at least two Level 4 Pataphysical Research Department Heads.
Description: SCP-XXXX is an orange farm located in Orange County, Florida. Prior to discovery by the Foundation, SCP-XXXX was owned by an individual designated PoI-2622. Interviews with local residents described labor primarily consisting of illegal immigrants. SCP-XXXX primarily functioned as a seemingly non-anomalous orange farm, except for the instances of SCP-XXXX-A growing there.
SCP-XXXX-A instances represent normal Citrus X sinensis that can be consumed as normal with no adverse affects, save for two key differences. One is their abnormally high Hume levels, measuring at 1.5 times the level of the surrounding area. The second is their ability to grow into SCP-XXXX-B instances under specific circumstances, or when manipulated by another SCP-XXXX-B instance.
SCP-XXXX-B are humanoid entities that retain their high Hume levels from their original state. In accordance with Scranton's Law, their discrepant Hume level in relation to their surrounding reality grants them minor reality bending capabilities. SCP-XXXX-B instances are identical in appearance to humans, save for their orange tinted skin, fully black eyes and lack of observable body hair. Should an instance of SCP-XXXX-A or a non anomalous Citrus x sinensis fruit be presented to SCP-XXXX-B, it will make an attempt to "hatch" the instance. Testing has shown partial success before being halted. See testing logs in addendum for full report.
SCP-XXXX was called to the Foundations attention when reports of an "orange skinned child" (later designated SCP-XXXX-B) working on the field were shared between workers in nearby farms. Agents embedded in agricultural workforce were alerted and notified the Foundation. Reconnaissance of the farm by agents confirmed the existence of the entity as well as abnormal Hume levels. Due to this, it was deemed necessary to bring in MTF Lambda-5 for the securing of a potential reality bending anomaly. Both SCP-XXXX-A instances and SCP-XXXX-B were successfully contained. PoI-2622 could not be located anywhere around the premises. Searching of PoI-2622's quarters revealed worn thaumaturgical symbols surrounding the east wall as well as numerous papers on the desk opposite. Of interest was a letter, which at it's discovery was tattered and torn, possibly an incomplete attempt at its destruction. What information could be salvaged from the letter is listen in the addendum below.
Addendum:
Test A - 4/13/20
Subject: SCP-XXXX-B
Purpose: To analyze SCP-XXXX-B's response to non-anomalous Citrus x sinensis fruit.
Results: Citrus x Sinensis fruit introduced to SCP-XXXX-B's testing chamber. SCP-XXXX-B approached the fruit and retrieved it from the ground with its hands. Entity appeared to fumble aimlessly with it, with evident distress in its vocalizations and facial expression. Testing halted after ten minutes with no change.
Analysis: It seems as if SCP-XXXX-B was attempting to manipulate the orange in some way. I suggest we deactivate the Scranton reality anchor next time and observe what it wants to do. The Hume level difference between itself and the chamber isn't high enough to affect anything on the outside. - Dr. Kant.
Test B - 4/14/20
Subject: SCP-XXXX-B
Purpose: To analyze SCP-XXXX-B's reality bending capabilities on a Citrus x sinensis fruit.
Results: Citrus x Sinensis fruit introduced once more to SCP-XXXX-B's testing chamber. This time, reality anchor was turned off. SCP-XXXX-B approached the fruit as before and retrieved it from the ground. Entity held the fruit in its hand and seemed to focus. Fruit began to sprout appendages before main body began to elongate. Testing halted and anchor reactivated to prevent creation of second anomaly.
Analysis: Very interesting. Although the orange was indeed non anomalous, SCP-XXXX-B was still able to manipulate it. Had it been able to continue it presumably would have been a sentient entity like itself. The testing chamber would have still had a high concentration of Hume, and the object would certainly have been grounded in reality from direct contact to the entity. I wonder if this would work with other kinds of plant life? - Dr. Kant.
Test C - 4/15/20
Subject: SCP-XXXX-B
Purpose: To observe SCP-XXXX-B's interactions with other forms of plant life.
Results: Crops of various kinds were introduced to the testing chamber. Reality anchor was activated before start of test. SCP-XXXX-B was observed to maintain a distance from the foreign fruit and vegetables presented to it. Testing ended with entity still maintaining a fair space between itself and crops.
Analysis: It seems to have an aversion to crops other than oranges. Let's try this again, this time with the anchor turned off. I think we'll get some very intriguing results. - Dr. Kant.
Test D - 4/16/20
Subject: SCP-XXXX-B
Purpose: To observe SCP-XXXX-B's abilities to manipulate foreign crop.
Results: Crops of various kinds were introduced to the testing chamber as they were last time. SCP-XXXX-B was again noted to be maintaining a fair distance. Anchor was deactivated. Almost immediately after, SCP-XXXX-B was observed to back into the far wall, clutching at its head in seeming distress. Recording devices picked up muttering from the entity. Repeated listening suggests the entity was in fact vocalizing the word "bad" continuously. This is the first documented time SCP-XXXX-B has used any kind of language to communicate.
Analysis: Peculiar indeed. Something about the difference in Hume level affected the way SCP-XXXX-B reacted to the crop. We've never even heard it use any sort of language before today. I'm going to hold off on introducing any -A instances for now. We don't want two potential low level reality benders in cooperation with each other. I'd like to run some other tests on the effects of high Hume on organic life in future. - Dr. Kant.
