Damion and 1048 were running as fast as they could to get away from both the Plague Doctor and the Old Man. They didn't know where to go and soon they hit another elevator.

"Oh, great," Damion had said under his breath.

Reluctantly, he and the teddy bear stepped inside and hit the button. As the elevator went down, Damion had blinked just in case 173 was near. When the door opened, they were greeted by a dark hallway with a broken gas pipe. As they stepped out, they heard something.

"What the hell was that!?" an unknown voice had said.

They looked around the corner to see nothing. Where that voice had came from, they had no idea. Damion decided that it would be best if they sneak over to another exit. They stepped out, careful not to make any noises. Soon they heard something walking by and hid behind a generator. What stepped into their view was horrifying.

The creature was quadrupedal and had a dark red skin tone. It's teeth were red as were it's claws and the spikes it had on it's back. It opened it's mouth, as if speaking.

"Is somebody there?" it had said with a almost frightened tone while looking around.

Soon, it walked past them and they got ready to crouch by. As Damion and 1048 got close to the creature, it stopped and looked around more. Damion instantly froze and held his breath, knowing that if he made a single sound, he was dead. 

Luckily, the creature didn't hear him and kept moving. He and the teddy bear quietly breathed out and kept sneaking by. Soon, they came across a blood-stained document, finally giving them some idea of what they had saw.

Item #: SCP-939

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-939-1, -3, -19, -53, -89, -96, -98, -99, and -109 are kept in Cell 1163-A or 1163-B, 10 m x 10 m x 3 m containment chambers within Armed Bio-Containment Area-14. Both cells are environmentally regulated and negatively pressurized, with walls constructed of reinforced concrete. Access to these cells is regulated by an outer decontamination chamber and inner gas-tight steel security doors. Observation windows are constructed of laminated ballistics glass 10 cm in thickness protected by a 100kV electrified mesh. Humidity is maintained at 100% at a temperature of 16° C. Specimens are monitored at all times via infrared cameras. Level Four authorization is required to access SCP-939, their containment areas, or the observation chambers.

SCP-939-101 is dismembered and stored in Cryogenic Preservation Tanks 939-101A to 939-101M within Bio-Research Area-12. Access to SCP-939-101 requires authorization by two Clearance Level 3 personnel, one of which must be present for all research and testing. The contents of only one (1) 939-101 tank may be accessed at any given time. Core temperature of SCP-939-101 tissues must be monitored while removed from cryogenic preservation; should core temperature exceed 10° C, tissues are to be returned to their corresponding tank and all testing suspended for a period of seventy-two (72) hours. Barring core temperature exceeding 10° C, research of SCP-939-101 tissues may continue as long as its ramblings and pleas for release may be tolerated.

Containment cells should be cleaned biweekly. While this takes place, SCP-939 specimens will be transferred to the adjacent cell. During this time, the cell's door and observation window must be inspected for damage and repaired or replaced accordingly.

Heavy sedation of all SCP-939 is required before any interaction, including transfer between cells and experimentation, may take place. See Document #939-TE4 for transfer and experimentation protocol.
