[Continued from Addendum 5b]
[12:17]: SCP-4883 enters the observation room of its containment chamber. Research staff trigger containment breach alarm. Two guards open the door from the corridor carrying handguns.
[12:18]: Both guards dominant hands are hyper-cooled and their handguns are flung at significant speed from them. One of these handguns strikes a member of the research staff in the forehead, causing a concussion. SCP-4883 enters the corridor.
[SCP-4883 moves unopposed through site corridors for 6 minutes before reaching the office area, in this time, an ad-hoc response team is formed from on-staff security.]
[12:24]: SCP-4883 is met by Ad-hoc security team. Team contains six security officers armed with SMGs, co-led by Lieutenant Vukan Vasiljevic and Lieutenant Andrew Walker.
Lieutenant Walker: "HEY FUCKING STOP RIGHT THERE OR I'LL DROP YOUR ASS,"
SCP-4883: "Screw you! I'm getting out of here, and you can't stop me. Get out of the way, or I don't care how little they pay you!"
[It is assumed that SCP-4883 is extremely distressed. It is also possible that SCP-4883 is already reflecting the vectors of all incoming kinetic energy, and therefore cannot hear the security team.]
[12:25]: An organised first response team under the command of Corporal Harvey Norman arrives. Team forms a shield wall and is armed with several automatic rifles, SMGs, Grenades, and shotguns. SCP-4883 has been surrounded in the corridor.
Lieutenant Walker: "BITCH I GET PAID DECENTLY, FINAL WARNING- CEASE AND- Desist?"
[SCP-4883 moves through a door in the side of the corridor and enters the engineering offices. The mechanism is found frozen solid, delaying security pursuit.]
[12:26]: SCP-4883 has entered engineering offices. O4-[REDACTED] and Researcher Alyssa Armistead were working on a new network security AI, and have been stuck inside since the containment breach. They are spotted by SCP-4883.
SCP-4883: "Who are you."
O4-[REDACTED]: "Just a couple of low level scientists. How about yourself? And we would very much not like to die."
S: "You're awfully calm." [SCP-4883 is visibly distressed] "I think you're important, you're going to come with me." [It is not clear why SCP-4883 drew this conclusion.]
O4: "I will go with you as long as you let my colleague go. Along with my work. That is quite important to me." [O4-[REDACTED] raises their hands] "Other than that, I'm all yours."
S: "All right, stand between me and the door. How do I get out of here, if we walk into a trap, I'll kill you to blow through it." [O4-[REDACTED] follows instructions.]
O4: "I can't tell ya mate. I just transferred here, and I have had about an hour of sleep in the past week, so I dont trust myself to give directions."
[12:27]: SCP-4883 moves to the door and unfreezes it, then stands behind O4-[REDACTED]. All site security are aware of the protocol that the life of an O4 takes absolute precedence over the survival of an SCP object.
O4: Listen. Like I said, I have nothing of value. Not maps, no way out, nothing." [Pause] "If you intend to kill me, I would ask you… You know… Don't."
S: "I don't intend to kill you unless it helps get me out, but your life has no value except as a hostage. If you can change that, you should."
O4: "They would rather shoot me to get to you. So, as it stands, you gain nothing from me in a hostage situation. I would much rather like to take a seat."
S: "You aren't taking this seriously enough."
O4: "I haven't slept. I've dealt with a life of hardships. I lack the capacity to give two fucks." [O4-[REDACTED] removes [REDACTED], apparently to cool down.] "You, however. You threaten to kill me if you get your way. Yet you're a human being. You would let something like that weigh your conscious down?"
S: "After what you people have put me through and taken from me, I won't go out of my way to hurt you, but it's not like you had to take this job. The only person who has something that should be weighing on your conscience is you, for working in this hell of a place."
[12:28]: Response units are still organising to breach the door.
O4: "I make artificial intelligence systems. I didn't put you through anything. However, I am one to recognize you as a human being. And as for why I work here?" [O4-[REDACTED] removes their cap.] "Money. I put myself through college with funding from the Foundation after my parents kicked me out and stopped supporting me because of my [REDACTED]."
S: "There are so many people who've never had a chance at support. They work everywhere, hell, every other poor person doesn't get real help from their parents, and none of them feel the need to cover their student debt by designing security systems for an extra-judicial race-based torture committee!"
O4: "Well, there are also many other people who don't take the best opportunity. I took an opportunity after living on the streets of Haiti because my family physically and mentally attacked me for my [REDACTED]. Look, I'm sorry. If that's what you want to hear, that's it. My entire country wouldn't hire me or anything because of who I am. I know you know what that feels like."
S: "Doesn't seem like anyone ever put you in solitary confinement for six months for being alive. Don't put your level of hard on the same level as mine, people were mean to you, I don't even think I'm sane anymore after what people you helped put me through."
O4: "You're right. Nobody did put me in solitary confinement. If we're going to have a pity-party, I wouldn't say this is the time nor place to do it."
[12:29]: Response units breach the door and throw a flashbang into the room. SCP-4883 ducks behind O4-[REDACTED], hiding its face, presumably assuming the flashbang was a conventional grenade. A second flashbang is thrown and a team advances into the room, SCP-4883 appears unaffected, it is thus assumed that SCP-4883 was reflecting all incoming kinetic vectors. Team take aim at SCP-4883.
SCP-4883: "I have a hostage!" [Team reported later that SCP-4883's voice sounded muffled. O4-[Redacted] has crumpled to the floor in front of SCP-4883, presumably in response to the flashbangs.]
Lieutenant Walker: "Yo fucking chill man, we're chill. Everyone's chill," [Walker has now recognised the hostage as an O4, the team is alerted by the emergency phrase 'Everyone's chill'.]
S: "Looks like they do care about you."
Corporal Norman: "You're gonna kill some IT guy, or whatever the fuck he is. And if you do, you lose all your chips, and we just shoot you. By holding a hostage, you're doing nothing but putting yourself in a spot"
L. W: "C'mon man, either way, this plays you're going back to the cell. Don't have to take any lives here, We don't negotiate with terrorists or their hostages."
S: "You have five seconds." [SCP-4883 is visibly on the verge of a breakdown.] "Five seconds, let me out of here, or he gets it, and you guys do to."
[12:30]: O4-[REDACTED] procures a scalpel they collected when the containment breach alarm was triggered from inside their lab coat. They attempt to stab SCP-4883 in the groin, this motion is arrested but not held by SCP-4883's anomalous properties. A response unit attempts to fire a tranquillizer at SCP-4883, this is also blocked, however in the confusion O4-[REDACTED] is able to escape and pass the line of responding security personnel. As soon as O4-[REDACTED] is out of the firing line, Lieutenant walker fires his P90.
[12:31]: All units begin to fire. SCP-4883 is hit by over 300 rounds of ammunition, calibre varying - all shots are blocked. SCP-4883 charges forward, facial analysis shows that SCP-4883 was screaming. By the speed of this movement, SCP-4883 was transferring kinetic energy from the gunfire into its own motion. Upon entering its area of effect, two security personnel are frozen completely solid - their bodies simultaneously break into ice shrapnel, spraying the remaining team. This kills both guards, shrapnel kills three more and injures thirteen. SCP-4883 continues on its course, bypassing security staff and escaping into the corridor. It is observed that the ground under SCP-4883 appears to be glowing red and steaming slightly.
[12:32]: Remaining elements of response unit refuse initially to engage SCP-4883 in the corridor, allowing SCP-4883 to escape and proceed largely unimpeded. It picks up a shell casing that has rolled out of the room.
[For the next 12 minutes SCP-4883 attempts to escape the facility. When confronted by an armoured door, the door freezes solid and breaks away from SCP-4883. This is repeated several times until SCP-4883 reaches the area immediately outside of the main elevator entrance zone. Here, a heavy blast door is placed. Responding MTF elements under the command of major Henderson have set up a defence perimeter immediately in front of the elevator, behind the blast door.]
[12:44]: SCP-4883 inspects the blast door. It is observed that SCP-4883 has forced the shell casing into a rough ball.
[12:47]: Lieutenant Vukan arrives, having followed SCP-4883. It is unclear why followed SCP-4883, he does not appear distressed and does not seem to spot SCP-4883. SCP-4883 spots Vukan. SCP-4883 accelerates its casing ball towards Vukan, it is observed that the glow under SCP-4883's feet dampens slightly - the ball is accelerated quickly enough to ignite from air friction, an estimated minimum of 1.5km/s. Lieutenant Vukan is killed.
[12:48]: SCP-4883 appears to have a mental breakdown.
[12:50]: SCP-4883 recovers somewhat. It breaks down the door in the same manner as before - MTF forces deployed to hold the lobby do not immediately open fire, instead deploying tear gas. SCP-4883, presumably identifying the head of the unit by their shouted orders, strikes Major Henderson with a similar projectile. The projectile hits the major in the head, killing him. The projectile was launched from the rubble of the door and is assumed to be a piece of steel. MTF units sporadically engage SCP-4883, which launches itself past them at significant speed, blows open the elevator doors whilst freezing them, then launches itself up the elevator shaft. After this maneuver, cameras outside of the site show the red glow has subsided. Leaving a trail of ice, SCP-4883 flees and is lost by satellite surveillance in the surrounding forest.
[Subsequent searches by personnel on the ground as well as disguised Foundation helicopters and drones fail to find SCP-4883. It is assumed SCP-4883 has reached a major metropolitan area, and MTF Iota-10, 'Damn Feds' is activated.]
