SCP: 5-Hour Energy [by Ze_AphEX]
Item #: SCP-????
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-???? currently sits inside of a glass container. Following SCP-???? Test K, SCP-???? must always be left empty after testing to prevent unauthorized consumption of SCP-???? fluid. When authorized for testing, SCP-???? must be filled with any liquid (excluding magma, lava, or any other lethal/dangerous liquid supplied by SCP-294, along with any blood or other bodily fluids extracted from any organism, living or dead) prior for testing to begin. When testing on organisms, living or otherwise, a pressure washer connected to a large enoigh water source must be on-hand should termination be necessary.
Description: SCP-???? is a standard 1.93 fluid oz. bottle of 5-Hour Energy Berry. Both the SCP-???? itself and whatever liquid is contained within it display anomalous properties, however the liquid only displays said properties after being poured into SCP-????. SCP-???? appears to apply these properties to any liquid poured inside of it, regardless of whether or not it contains caffeine or any other energy-giving ingredient.
Liquids poured out from SCP-???? all display the ability to power all sorts of machinery, ranging from old coal engines and steam engines to modern diesel engines. Additionally, when poured onto electronic devices, these will be functional even when not connected to any power source, and in the case of devices which are manually shut down, they will fail to do so for exactly 5 hours after being doused with SCP-???? fluid. After these 5 hours expire, any device doused with it will cease to function until reconnected to a power source.
SCP-???? fluid also affects organisms who consume it or (in the case of corpses) have it forcefully injected into the bloodstream. In the case of live subjects, all of them have displayed the ability to manifest and manipulate several known forms of energy, these being kinetic, electric, thermal, radiant, and sound energy. In the case of deceased subjects, although they do not seem to posses these abilities, SCP-???? fluid is capable of complete cellular reconstruction, bringing the subject back to life in perfect condition. However, after the effect of SCP-???? fluid passes, the subject immediately expires, and all damages present before reanimation reappear.
Blood or bodily fluids is never to be inserted into SCP-????. Upon being poured out of SCP-????, the anomalous blood will become both incredibly acidic, capable of melting through wood and damaging steel. It will also become violently electric, electrifying everything in an approximately 3 meter radius, including humans.
It is currently unknown whether or not SCP-???? is indestructible, as tests regarding this have been prohibited, however it can be confirmed that it is malleable, and composition tests have proven SCP-???? is made of plastic. It is also unknown whether or not the effects of SCP-???? fluid stack, as tests in regards to this have yet to be carried out.
Test A (unintentional discovery)
Subject: Dr. ███████
Procedure: In his office, Dr. ████████ drank a 5-Hour Energy Berry bottle which he had brought with him from his quarters.
Results: Dr. ████████ immediately shorted out his computer and other electrical appliances in his office after touching them. When opening the door, he accidentally shocked a coworker. Dr. ████████ was forced to wear a non-conductive suit for the duration of effects, which lasted 5 hours in total.
Test B
Subjects: Dr. ████████'s 5-Hour Energy Berry bottle, D-2615
Procedure: Dr. ████████'s 5-Hour Energy Berry bottle was refilled with normal water without any caffeine. It was given to D-2615, who was told to drink it.
Results: D-2615 manifested the same abilities as Dr. ████████ when he drank from the bottle, which lasted exactly 5 hours. Dr. ████████'s 5-Hour Energy Berry bottle is now cataloged as SCP-????.
Test C
Subject: 15th century sword
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was poured onto the sword.
Results: 15th century sword did not receive any anomalous properties of any kind.
Test D
Subject: 18th century steam engine
Procedure: Steam engine was given SCP-???? fluid as fuel instead of coal.
Results: Steam engine immediately began to function, and continued functioning for exactly 5 hours.
Test E
Subject: Standard 3000W. diesel-powered generator
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was poured into gasoline tank in place of diesel.
Results: Generator immediately began to function without being manually turned on. Attempts to turn the generator off were met with failure. Generator continued to function for exactly 5 hours.
Test F
Subject: Standard 10000W. diesel-powered generator
Procedure: SCP-??? fluid was poured into gasoline tank in place of diesel.
Results: Generator immediately began to function without being manually turned on. Attempts to turn off the generator were met with failure. Generator continued to function at maximum output for exactly 5 hours.
Test G
Subject: 2018 Toyota Camry
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was poured into gasoline tank in place of diesel.
Results: Vehicle immediately turned on, fuel gauge read as almost empty. The vehicle was driven twice for about an hour each time. Vehicle turned off after exactly 5 hours.
Test H
Subject: Disconnected computer, monitor included
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was poured over all electronics.
Results: The computer and monitor both powered up instantly, despite both being disconnected from a power source. All attempts to shut down both the computer and the monitor were met with failure. Both devices remained functional for exactly 5 hours.
Test I
Subject: Computer, monitor included; all computer components were disconnected from the PSU, which itself was disconnected from an external power source
Procedure: SCP-??? fluid was poured over all electronics.
Results: Upon the fluid being poured, Dr. █████ was immediately electrified. The liquid which poured out, which has now been confirmed to have been blood, [DATA CORRUPTED]. Dr. █████ did not survive. Further investigation revealed Dr. ███████ to be responsible for pouring blood from SCP-294 into SCP-????. Dr. ███████ was subsequently demoted to D-Class subject.
Test J
Subject: D-4275
Procedure: D-4275 was given SCP-???? and instructed to drink its fluid.
Results: D-4275 reported feeling energetic. D-4275 was instructed to touch the 3000W. generator. Upon contact, the generator immediately turned on and remained functional for 5 hours after contact. D-4275 was then instructed to touch the provided vehicle (2016 Honda Civic). Upon contact with the hood, nothing happened. After opening the hood, D-4275 was instructed to touch the engine. Upon doing so, the car immediately started, and remained active for 5 hours after contact. D-4275's electric effects lasted for 5 hours after consumption.
Test K
Subject: D-2385
Procedure: D-2385 was given SCP-???? with instructions to drink its contents.
Results: D-2385, after drinking from SCP-????, reported feeling powerful. When told to attempt to arc electricity, [DATA EXPUNGED]. Subject was finally neutralized by accidental spillage of 25oz. cup of water, [DATA EXPUNGED]. Casualties confirmed at ██: █ researchers, ██ guards, and █ agents. Containment procedures readjusted accordingly.
Test L
Subject: Deceased middle-aged male; cause of death: multiple stab wounds in torso
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was poured into the mouth of the subject.
Results: No changes or alterations to subject's condition were detected.
Test M
Subject: Deceased middle-aged male; cause of death: lung cancer
Procedure: SCP-???? fluid was injected directly into subjects bloodstream.
Results: Subject immediately regained vital signs. After several minutes, subject regained consciousness. A superficial psych evaluation was conducted, which revealed the subject had many of his memories from throughout his life. Further health evaluation revealed subject's lungs to be in perfect condition, along with all decomposed flesh having been completely reconstructed. Subject was instructed to touch the provided 3000W. generator. Nothing happened. Subject was instructed to touch the provided vehicle(2017 Mitsubishi Lancer)'s engine. Nothing happened. It appears reanimated subjects do not manifest energetic abilities as live subjects do.
Test N
Subject: D-1607
Procedure: D-1607 was given SCP-????. SCP-???? was filled with blood. D-1607 was instructed to drink SCP-???? fluid.
Results: D-1607 was electrified as soon as the first drop of fluid left SCP-????. SCP-???? fluid melted straight through D-1607, before settling on the floor. SCP-???? fluid continued electrifying everything in an approximately 3 meter radius for 5 hours. D-1607's corpse collapsed on top of the puddle, resulting in most of D-1607's body being melted.
