As per usual, the alarm rings to indicate that the SCP's have breached containment. One by one each creature comes out of their cells to become free for a few hours. Including a small 3-year-old girl.
The small girl skips down the hall while holding a small purse full of crayons and paper. A smile was plastered on her face. She hummed a small nursery rime that her friend 049 taught her.
A while later of skipping and singing she finds another one of her friends sitting on the floor. It was SCP 096! He was facing the wall and had his face covered with his hands. The little girl skips towards her friend and stops right behind him.
"Hi, Lanky!" She said with the most cheery voice she can muster.
096 took a small peek from behind his shoulder to confirm if he knew who she was. He gave a small smile when he finds out that the little girl talking to him was 053. "Hi, Abby." He turns his whole body to face her and lets her see his face. True he doesn't like it when people see his face but she was one of the SCP's he gave an exception to. She didn't think of him as a hideous monster as most do.
053 runs up to him and hugs him tight. 096 returned the hug. She lets go and looks up at him. "What are you doing here all alone?"
"Oh, me?" he looks away and rubs the back of his neck. "I-I'm just waiting for 847."
053 looks at him confused. Because she is so young, she has trouble remembering so many numbers. It took her about two year to fully remember 096's number. And since their numbers are so close together, they've known each other longer.
"Oh right. You have trouble remembering numbers. I-I'm t-talking about Macy."
"Ah, Macy!" Her eyes sparkled up with joy. She loved Macy. She was so nice to her and always brushed her hair. What those two loved to do more was play model. 847 was always helping 053 out on the best and fashionable clothes. But 053 always put on her favorite dress back on. She just loved it too much.
"Y-yeah." 096 blushed a little. "So where are you heading off to?"
"I'm going to see 682!" she stood tall and smiled.
"Oh... him." he sighed. "Well, Good luck. I'll just stay here and wait."
"Okay! Say hi to Macy for me!"
"I will."
The two bid their farewell and left. Well, 053 did, 096 stayed where he was.
She turned a hall to her left and saw the elevator. She pressed the button then waited. Once the elevator doors open she went inside and stood and her tippy toes to reach the last button; which was very high.
While waiting, a black stain started appearing next to 053. She looked and smiled. 106 popped his head out of the black stain, which is known to be a portal to his pocket dimension.
"Heya, kid!" Only the upper half of his body was showing.
"Hi, Uncle Larry!" She waved to him.
"Going to see 682?"
"Yup!" She gave a wider smile.
"That's nice. Try not to get eaten."
"Don't worry. He would never eat me."
"Glad to hear that. Welp. Time for this old man to skedaddle."
"Okay! Bye, Uncle Larry!"
"C'ya later, kiddo." 106 dives back into his pocket dimension and disappears; hoping to find his next victim next time.
The elevator dings and the doors open. She walks out and the doors close behind her.
She skips all the way to the end of a hall and stops in front of a giant door. She reached inside her purse and took out an O5 card. Since the slot was so high up, she had to try and stand on her tippy toes to reach it but it wasn't enough. She huffed in frustration like she always does when she comes and tries to visit.
Once again she stood on her tippy toes. Right as she was about to jump, a mechanical hand gently grabbed the card from 053 and swiped it on the slot.
"If you need help, just ask."
053 turned to see it 079 who swiped it. She smiled at his appearance. "Hi, 079! You came too?"
"Salutations, 053. And yes. I will be coming here more often now that I have this body."
053 claps her hands while jumping. "Yay!"
The AI grinned at the little girl's actions. "Shall we go?"
She smiled more and nodded her head.
The two SCP's walked inside the heavily contained room. The AI was about to hack into the main system to open 682's cell until the door opened by itself.
He looked over at 053 and found her on her knees on the floor. A piece of the floor was removed right in front of 053. 079 walked towards her and saw there was a lever inside the floor that she pulled.
Because of how dangerous 682 is, the door to his cell is opened differently. The doctors are usually the only ones who know how to open it, but 053 managed to take a peek at how they do it.
053 jumps up and runs over to the heavy metal door that leads into 682's cell. There was a platform many feet above the pool of acid where 682 is contained.
"HI, 682!" 053 frantically waves at the giant lizard beneath.
079 leans on the rails. "Hello, dear friend."
682 looks up and sees his two favorite SCPs, he will admit. "Hey! Hold up. I'll be right there. Go back to the other room until I tell you to come back."
The two did as they were told and left.
682 swims in circles for a little bit then dives down. After a few seconds, he leaps up and manages to hold on to the railing. He uses his tail and legs to lift himself up with ease. It was extremely painful to dive down in the acid but he did it anyway just to see them.
Once on the platforms, he starts shaking to get rid of the remaining acid in his fur and sheds to make himself smaller. Just the right size for 053.
"Okay. You can come out now." He lays down on the ground and waits for them to come in.
053 comes in running at full speed to 682. She jumps on his nose and nuzzles it. 682 gave a low chuckle. Once 053 gave him back his eyesight he saw 079 walking towards him.
"Glad to see you made it."
"Heh." 079 gave a sly smirk and sat next to 682. He leaned into him and sighed. "I as well. I only hope the foundation does not find out about this. They will take away my body if they did."
053 frowned. "The people here can be so mean sometimes. I don't like it."
682 scoffs. "I don't like people in general. Fucking morons." He mumbled the last part.
"Well anyway, do you wanna draw with me, 682 and 079?" 053 took out some crayons and a few sheets of paper from her purse.
"Hmm." 079 picks up a red crayon. "Draw?"
682 sighs. "You're gonna draw on my face again, aren't you?"
053 responded to 682's question with puppy eyes and the quivering lip.
"Fine."
"Yay!" She took a pink crayon and started drawing a flower.
079 looks at them both with curiosity. 682 notices. "Just start scribbling that thing on that piece of paper and make some kind of picture."
079 smiles. He grabs a piece of paper and starts drawing the flower 053 was drawing on 682.
