Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: All personnel entering the enclosure of SCP-XXXX must wear hazmat suits, used spray to remove bodily odors, and filled in the logbook beforehand. Additionally, personnel has to partake in an extra quarterly medical evolution to check for possible infections.1 Personnel can request extra medical check ups, antihistamine cream, and earplugs freely.
Personnel that wishes to gain access to SCP-XXXX for research purposes are to take a test on diplomatic stances after their safety credentials have been acknowledged by the Site Director of Site-36. If the results are deemed satisfactory, the Site Director will subsequently inform personnel and adjust their file in the medical database.
The basic diet of SCP-XXXX is to be composed of honeydew, nectar, and other plant-based secretions. If personnel on neighboring sites from any level or agents of hostile Groups of Interest must be terminated, they may be used as a substitute for the daily nutrition of SCP-XXXX.
The original territory of SCP-XXXX has been publicly declared as a breeding zone for endangered animals and has been closed off to the public.
A young female specimen of SCP-XXXX.
Description: SCP-XXXX refers to a species of mosquitoes that inhabited the Ratargul Swamp Forest in Bangladesh.2
Specimens from SCP-XXXX do not defecate or lay eggs. Instead, they grow in size up to 18 cm whilst developing a gradually darker red pigment marking them as adult, who will die by charging en masse on one mutual target. The blood from the mosquitoes will form new larvae upon unification.
Whilst trying to contain the instances of SCP-XXXX, the Foundation suffered casualties from several attacks. Consequently, SCP-XXXX got taxonomically classified as the Aedes kamikaze.3
After anatomical studies, an extra organ between the occiput and the stylets was found.4 This organ makes specimens of SCP-XXXX able to make internal vibrations to communicate by speech.
Discovery: On 27 April 1952 in Ratargul Swamp Forest, Bangladesh, a Doctor in Entomology named Zalim Mehrotra claimed to be charged and hit by "A massive red mosquito of an unknown species".5 Dr. Mehrotra hypothesized that they were a prehistorical ancestor of mosquitoes across Indo-Asia or are a mutated version that may have been closely related.
The specimen died from the collision impact. Dr. Mehrotra described the experience as "being hit by a dart or small arrow at high speed". His wounds were looked after and Class-B amnestics were administered.
The forest was subsequently closed until 12 May 1952 (see addenda). Information to the public stated that the park was closed due to severe danger of flooding. The park was reimbursed for their monetary loss.
Addendum-1: Containment Attempts of SCP-XXXX
From aerial footage, a red swarm of SCP-XXXX was located in a publicly untouched part of the swamp. Over the course of several days, researchers identified specific flying patterns. On 05/05/1952 a first containment attempt was made.
5 May 1952: Containment Attempt 1
Description: 20 D-class individuals were told to run and swim to containment units on the higher side of the swamp, whilst being doused in a chemical that would lure but render the anomaly docile.
Result: The specimens of SCP-XXXX charged towards the D-class personnel. The chemical failed to fulfill its purpose. There were 26 casualties.
- 17 D-class individuals died from an uncountable amount of puncture wounds
- 3 D-class individuals drowned to death whilst fleeing
- 4 Field agents and 2 researchers fell victim to SCP-XXXX in the search and retrieval of the corpses
6 May 1952: Containment Attempt 2
Description: The containers from the earlier attempt were filled with odor enhancers and livestock.6
Result:
- No livestock survived
- SCP-XXXX did not show preference for any target
- Captured specimens were found deceased upon opening the units from flying against the walls repeatedly
- All larvae were pierced, the remains were used for anatomic and genetic research purposes
7 May 1952: Containment Attempt 3
Description: Each unit was occupied by 10 D-class individuals with the same blood type and an installation to release sleeping gas and CO2.
Result:
- There were no survivors from the D-class personnel.
- SCP-XXXX has no preference for any blood type.
- Specimens that woke up early pierced all other specimens and larvae before flying repeatedly against the wall.
Note: Uncaught specimens of SCP-XXXX have become wary of the containment units, rendering further attempts useless. Instead the anomaly has begun to target Foundation Personnel. The Ethics Committee politely requested that further usage of D-class personnel should have extra safety measures.
A perimeter around the territory of SCP-XXXX was set under the appearance of maintenance in wildlife reserves. Personnel of the Ratargul Swamp Forest was replaced by Foundation personnel. On 12 May 1952, the park re-opened again to the public with limited entrance after suspicions within the local authorities began to rise. A report about more frequent flooding was presented, making it possible to reroute all guided tours, limit the amount of visitors, and prevent further problems with government agencies.
Addendum-2: The Mosquito War
A larva of SCP-XXXX.
After several lethal attacks from SCP-XXXX on personnel, the Mobile Task Force Lambda-12 "Pest Control" and Psi-3 "Buzz-Killers" were tasked to shoot specimens of SCP-XXXX that came out of the perimeter and attacked personnel.
Killing instances or parts of a collective SCP is normally prohibited. However, since SCP-XXXX only reproduces after the parents' death, is guaranteed to die during the attack, and results in less casualties, it was allowed under special circumstances. Personnel was also able to send back newly formed larvae after the attacks. A new terrarium on Site-36 was made for the containment of SCP-XXXX.
After several months of continuous attacks and no further development, personnel tried to make the perimeter smaller in an attempt to establish a better frontline. The main goal was to increase the distance between SCP-XXXX and possibly isolate it further. Logs are available below.
Foreword: Audio log from the attempt to adjust the perimeter on 11 February 1953.
Recorded Personnel: Scouting Team 11: MTF-member Cécil Gondrier, field agent Anand Yangar, and technician/researcher Satya Mehrotra.
<Begin Log>
C. Gondrier: Click. Sector 11 is clear. Over. Click.
A. Yangar: Great, we're almost done then.
C. Gondrier: Almost.
S. Mehrotra: Yeah, after this we still need to stay here for 3 days before the next crew comes in, right?
C. Gondrier: Well you do, I'm not on rotation.
A. Yangar: So you are here stuck 24/7 in this swamp with full equipment? Damn, that sucks.
S. Mehrotra: I'm only wearing an additional hazmat suit and some boots and I sweat my ass off already.
Bzzz.
C. Gondrier: Stop.
S. Mehrotra: Come on, I didn't mean to offen—
A. Yangar: Mehrotra, shut up for a sec. I think Gondrier is onto something.
C. Gondrier: You heard it too?
A. Yangar: Yes, a light buzzing.
C. Gondrier: Ok, watch my back. Click. This is Gondrier, Sector 11. Asking for status on adjacent sectors. Heard light buzzing, over. Click.
MTFC: Click. MTF-Commander Daksh Thakre responding to Gondrier, Sectors 10 and 12 are clear. Confirm the source of the buzzing noise. Proceed with caution. Over. Click.
C. Gondrier: Click. Roger that, over. Click.
Bzzz.
S. Mehrotra: Yeah, I hear it too now.
A. Yangar: Let's just hope it are normal mosquitoes.
C. Gondrier: Be quiet, this might get messy.Bzzz.
C. Gondrier: Click. This is Gondrier, Sector 11. Buzzing getting closer. Set a 60-second response timer. We might have a charging attack here. Over. Click.
MTFC: Click. Roger, timer running. Sector 10 and 12 stay on alert. Over. Click.
MTF-K12 Sector 10 and 12: Click. Roger, temporarily taken halt. Over. Click.
Bzzz.
S. Mehrotra: What the—
A. Yangar: You've got to be kidding me, that can't be one swarm.
C. Gondrier: Click. Gondrier, Sector 11. SCP-XXXX spotted. Evacuating now! Over. Click.
MTFC: Click. Say again, I can't hear you over the static. Over. Click.
A. Yangar: Damn it, it's not static it's—
Bzzz.
<End Log>
Aftermath: Scouting Team 11 and Sector 11 were overwhelmed by SCP-XXXX. Other sectors were charged by other swarms of SCP-XXXX. There were 83 casualties due to the limited mobility in the area. The bodies could not be recovered.
After this event, the old perimeter was re-established and attempts to negotiate for a cease fire were made. These consisted of multiple speakers that send out a pre-recorded messages every two hours.
On 20 February 1953, a single specimen of SCP-XXXX came flying towards the perimeter.
Interviewer: Dr. Ravi Bhaumik
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX-1<Begin Log>
Buzzing that slowly increases in volume.
SCP-XXXX-1: Excuse me, I think you wanted to negotiate about something?
MTF-K12-6: Loads gun. Oh, god SCP-XXXX is— Wait, you want to negotiate?
SCP-XXXX-1: Yes, I do.
MTF-K12-6: Uh… Can you wait here for a moment? I have to get the right man for this.
SCP-XXXX-1: Sure, but don't let me wait too long, please.
Several minutes of content omitted for brevity.
Dr. Bhaumik: Excuse my lateness, I came as fast as I could.
SCP-XXXX-1: Are you the representative?
Dr. Bhaumik: Yes, I am. You can call me Dr. Bhaumik. You are here to negotiate?
SCP-XXXX-1: Well, first I need to know what you want to negotiate about into more detail.
Dr. Bhaumik: We want you to stop charging in and costing us valuable people. In exchange, we can stop killing you.
SCP-XXXX-1: Whilst that definitely seems reasonable for you, from my perspective your people committed a genocide, whilst we didn't.
Dr. Bhaumik: I cannot deny that we killed more than you but since you'll die and even reproduce from charging in anyway. Is it really that bad to limit the casualties?
SCP-XXXX-1: We do have higher brain functions than normal mosquitoes but we are still overcome by or instinct sometimes. I'm really holding myself back as we speak. Do you think it is easier for us to go against our instinct or for you to just move away? Why the hell are you here in the first place?
Dr. Bhaumik: Well, we want to protect—
SCP-XXXX-1: Protect? Ever since you have been here there have been more casualties on your side than before and then you blame it all on us. Yes, we aren't completely innocent for certain things that happened but you disturbed us, you tried to kidnap us before this all happened. Have you ever considered our perspective?
Dr. Bhaumik: Well—
SCP-XXXX-1: Stop. I'm not done just yet. You said: "you'll die from charging in anyway" and that you kill us to limit the casualties.
Dr. Bhaumik: Yes, I did say that.
SCP-XXXX-1: We mostly bite birds and primates that live here for nutrition. In fact, we don't feed on humans. Those swarms that attacked you are about to die. They searched and attacked specifically you so they could have a small chance of tasting your delicious blood before dying.
Dr. Bhaumik: Did dying specimens always do that? What about that declaration of war?
SCP-XXXX-1: No, normally dying mosquitoes found the tastiest source and charged them. But now we know that a steady amount of humans is here. A lot of us target you too because of all the victims you made until now. You too should know that revenge is a strong motivator.
Dr. Bhaumik: If I could find some substitute, do you think we can stop all this bloodshed?
SCP-XXXX-1: I don't think it is completely possible to substitute a human that if I'm brutally honest. How would one even do that?
Dr. Bhaumik: Oh, I don't mean to substitute humans for another animal or some artificial source of blood.
SCP-XXXX-1: Wait, then how- I don't understand.
Dr. Bhaumik: Substituting humans with other humans. We send them in here. And you are free to charge them.
SCP-XXXX-1: And how do I know those aren't innocent people?
Dr. Bhaumik: Trust me, if you think we are bad, you haven't seen anything.
SCP-XXXX-1: Hmph. Try to convince me.
Dr. Bhaumik explained exactly what D-class personnel is and how death row works. Dr. Bhaumik showed some explicit examples of what some D-class had done. Data omitted for brevity.
Dr. Bhaumik: So, what do you think now?
SCP-XXXX-1: Ok you are making a lot more sense now. But I can't guarantee every one of us will honor some agreement, especially when they only break it just before death and can't face consequences afterwards.
Dr. Bhaumik: What about we only shoot those who cross the border here.
SCP-XXXX-1: If you can send in those people consistently, I can understand that action.
Dr. Bhaumik: Now that we finally are making progress, do you want me to find a way to get the corpses out of your territory too?
SCP-XXXX-1: No, the vultures will take care of that. The rest will sink in the mud I presume.
Dr. Bhaumik: So-
SCP-XXXX-1: No, I'll have to report back or they will get suspicious. Can you meet me back here tomorrow at sunrise? Perhaps we already have an agreement by then.
Dr. Bhaumik: I understand, see you tomorrow.
<End Log>
Afterword: Dr. Bhaumik suggested that weekly on Saturday at 19:00 two individuals that are to be terminated are given access to the forest within the perimeter. The Ethics Committee albeit with some hesitation approved his suggestion on the condition that Dr. Bhaumik was the first one to enter the perimeter. Enemies of the Foundation and personnel of any level that is to be terminated in Bangladesh, East-India, and Bhutan can be selected for this and have priority over D-class personnel.
Foreword: Continuation of the previous log.
Interviewer: Dr. Ravi Bhaumik
Interviewee: SCP-XXXX-1<Begin Log>
Dr. Bhaumik: You're here early, the sun hasn't come up yet.
SCP-XXXX-1: Well, mosquitoes are supposed to be mostly nocturnal and I suggested the time. So, how did things go on your part?
Dr. Bhaumik: I can send in two persons per week. I do not have the authority to haggle for more and unfortunately, I will have to get in myself.
SCP-XXXX-1: I wasn't planning on bargaining. I am really glad that it will be weekly, you know that being slightly lower than our average lifespan.
Dr. Bhaumik: So how did things go on your end?
SCP-XXXX-1: They were concerned about the frequency but since it is weekly, that problem seems to be solved already. I also want to tell you that they are watching. If they were unhappy they would probably have charged in already.
Dr. Bhaumik: I suppose the only thing that's left is to seal the deal. I have some paper with me… but I suppose you can't write.
SCP-XXXX-1: We can make it a blood pact if you are ok with that.
Dr. Bhaumik: You want to charge into the paper?
SCP-XXXX-1: Yeah, I'm getting old you know. Just take a vest from one of your heavy guys and apply the paper on your person. It will likely be crumbled or torn but I'm sure some of my splatters will end up on it.
Dr. Bhaumik: I understand.
Dr. Bhaumik puts on some equipment and positions the paper. An increasingly louder buzzing can be heard.
SCP-XXXX-1: A sting of beauty is a joy forever.
Splat.
Dr. Bhaumik: Hmph. Damn, that hurt more than I expected. Couch.
Dr. Bhaumik takes off the paper.
Dr. Bhaumik: Take this back. I'm now going to fulfill my end of the bargain.
Exited buzzing can be heard.
SCP-XXXX-2: Doctor, let us meet again after death!
SCP-XXXX: Charge!
Dr. Bhaumik: Damn it, I refuse to be the only one afraid of death here.
Dr. Bhaumik and SCP-XXXX charge in.
<End Log>
Afterword: Following these events, there have been no particular incidents with SCP-XXXX.
Next individuals up for termination by SCP-XXXX: D-4431 and D-3607.
