The SCP Foundation

Chapter 97: SCP-1192

In the city of Newark, New Jersey, a police officer had stepped out of his residence and on to the sidewalk. He was wearing the New Jersey police uniform and he was on his way to the police station.

"Alright, everything should be all good..." the police officer said to himself, inspecting every inch of his uniform. "Okay, all good."

With that, the police officer started walking towards the police station. He took a few steps forward, and he suddenly heard a bird chirping nearby.

"Huh?"

The chirping continued, and the police officer thought to look down. There he saw a juvenile male Gang-gang cockatoo near his feet.

"Oh, hey there, little guy..." the police officer responded to the cockatoo. "How are you doing?"

The bird had chirped in return.

"Heh, isn't that just adorable..." the police officer chuckled to himself. "Well, it's nice meeting you, little guy. I have to go to work now."

With that, the police officer continued on his way towards the police station. However, the cockatoo continued chirping, getting his attention once again.

"Hm?" the police officer looked back. "Hey, little guy, I'm heading off to work now. You should probably go back to your family."

The cockatoo chirped in response.

"Are you okay?" the police officer asked. "You don't look hurt to me..."

At this point, the cockatoo started to act erratically, which concerned the police officer; he knew something was wrong.

"Alright, stay there, little guy..." the police officer told the bird.

The police officer then took out his phone and went through his contacts. He proceeded to call someone, who picked up almost immediately.

"Hey, uh... I got something to report here..." the police officer said. "It's... I dunno... it's a bird, that's acting weird. It looks like it wants to tell me something."

"Alright, stay there. We're heading to your location."

"Athena, are the papers and pencils in order?"

"Yes, Jaina. Everything's all set."

"Alright, then we shouldn't wait any longer." the researcher stood up from her desk. "Come on, Athena, we should be there by now."

"Alright..."

The two researchers left their office and went on their way towards an experimentation chamber, to interview it about its properties.

"So... which SCP is it time, Jaina?"

"We're assigned by Doctor Stevens to interview SCP-1192." the researcher answered. "A small cockatoo that has an apparent knowledge of a six to eight year old child."

"That's quite interesting." Athena responded.

"It sure is... however, we do have some reason to believe that the knowledge isn't from the cockatoo itself." the researcher said. "They say that a child has somehow entered the cockatoo's body."

"Is it really what this SCP is? A child in a cockatoo's body?"

"We couldn't say for sure. It's a mere speculation." the researcher answered. "Which is probably why the site director assigned us to interview it."
