Thank you. I'm so tired. I'm on the right track. I'm on the right track. It is a dark and stormy night.

You've spent the last several days hiding in this broom closet, with nothing but the rank water of the mop sink to sustain you. The chaos has long since died down. It's time to make a break for it. Lightning routes the sullen darkness of the empty halls, stepping cautiously over the shriveled, dried-up body of Dr. Coffey. you do your best to remain silent you have no idea how I hunt best to take every precaution No, no, no, no, no, no, no, not yet, not like this!

Oh, lucky for you, you're headed in the opposite direction from whoever that was, towards the security office. The door to the security office is ajar, held open by a desiccated corpse. lying face down in the doorway. Nichols, on the other hand, is sprawled out backwards in his seat, flesh and spilt organs dry as old bones. Water drips from a pipe in the ceiling onto his crisp, translucent translucent skin pools in the viscera on his lap and drip

It drips down onto the linoleum. The floor is covered in water, and you step slowly across it. Careful not to lose your footing. Welcome to SkipNet database. Please enter your username and password. Access granted. Access file. SCP-3280. Yes. Tell me everything. Accessing file SCP-3280. Please wait. Another flash of lightning, out in the hall. Your eyes dart towards the door, paranoid, dreading, anticipating. I could be anywhere. File found. Opening SCP-3280. Clearance level 0.

Note, due to your clearance level, some information may be withheld or incomplete. Item number, SCP-3215. Object class is redacted. Special containment procedures, SCP-3280, is to remain in place at its point of origin in the defunct Johnston Labs and Pharmaceuticals Research Center, which is now on Development of a suitable long-term containment solution is ongoing. Yeah. Maybe hurry it up, folks.

Should SCP-3280 reach the entrance to sub-level 2, the site will automatically enter our security lockdown. Making entrance and egress impossible. Shit. Note that this will also activate blackout protocol, ensuring that no hazardous or sensitive information is broadcast from this site. This is necessary to prevent a full containment breach and failure of third mission. They must mean protecting the general populace. Great. They won't even be able to call for help.

description. Where's the description? Shit. I don't have access. But of course, despite the repeated assurances that your security upgrade was in the process of being implemented, you're still level zero. And thus, effectively worthless as far as Overwatch is concerned. You couldn't even detonate the on-site warhead if there was one. Ah, the file, though. Was that image even right? I've seen it before. Surely, Anna. No. No, no, no. That can't be right.

No time to be worried about something so inane. Oh, I need to get in somehow. I need more information. The faint drip, drip, dripping reminds you of nickels. Still... there behind you glassy-eyed staring at the wall in shock His ID card is wedged beneath him, but you're able to slide it out and detach it from the loop.

Thankfully, Nichols was the kind of fool who scrawls their password on the underside of their clearance card, as you discover upon turning it over in your hands. Thanks, Nichols. I'll pour one out for you when I make it out of here. Log out successful. Welcome to SkipNet database. Please enter your username and password. Okay. Okay, now I'm in business. Access security footage.

This is definitely helpful. You don't want to miss the opportunity to seize up whatever it is that is out there. But you've already seen your own eyes. Accessing. Access second floor barracks. Researcher Jensen has hanged himself with a makeshift noose from a nearby bunk. A lightning flash illuminates a puddle beneath his corpse. Access second floor, east wing. Dr. Emanuel stumbles listlessly throughout the darkened hallway. He clutches his gut and collapses, his belly expanding.

stretching and then popping open, spilling organs like a burst pinata. is jerky in seconds as I pour myself out of him. Jesus Christ. The first floor is flooded. Several people attempted to break through the front door, despite the security measures rendering the site inescapable. As they are all face down, you do not recognize the bodies in the water. A man in an orange jumpsuit lays dead in the corner of the basement.

A pipe on the near wall has burst and is steadily leaking onto the concrete floor. Access first floor cafeteria. It is difficult to tell how many staff were present here. All that remains, aside from errant clothes bobbing about the surface of the water, is a pinkish slurry pooling under the windows. It's the same all over the site. The dead and the dying. Everywhere you look.

Whatever caused this, whatever is lurking in these halls remains unseen, or at least unrecognized. This isn't getting you anywhere, and it's getting harder for you to think. Access file SCP-3280. Accessing file SCP-3280. Please wait. FILE FOUND OPENING SCP3280 CLEARANCE LEVEL 2 NOTE DUE TO YOUR CLEARANCE LEVEL SOME INFORMATION MAY BE WITH HELD OR INCOMPLETE Item number. SCP-3280. Object class. Euclid. Special containment procedures. 1D class personnel is to be deposited.

into sub-level 2 per week through subterranean access point gamma. They are to be presented with misleading information concerning the nature of SCP-3280 and instructed to progress to the lowest level of the facility. They are to be equipped with a flashlight as well as a security baton for self-defense. An ultrasonic transmitter is to be sewn into their clothing, which will broadcast a frequency capable of drawing SCP-343 to the location upon accessing the deepest area of the sub-level.

This should draw SCP-3280 away from the sub-level's entrance as it prefers live prey. I do. It's true. I'm ashamed to admit that there is a time where I was stupid enough that this worked. Unfortunately for you, there's a direct correlation between my intelligence and my volume. The failure to contain SCP-3280 in this manner will result in a full lockdown of Site-51. MTF IOTA-12. The silencers in Tau-4, water, water everywhere will be immediately dispatched to contain the threat.

Should 12 hours pass without overwatching, receiving an out clear from these teams, all sides are to enact emergency measures in preparation for an imminent case scenario Gracias. SCP-3280 is a sapient entity composed of a fluid physically identical to water, capable of traveling about 2.5 kilometers per hour. non-anomalous water introduced to SCP-3280 becomes incorporated into its mass and a removed sample is proved to operate identically. At the same time of its discovery, the entity

was approximately 66.4 liters in volume. It is currently estimated to be about 2,500 liters. Closer to 10,000 now. The entity is hostile to human life. SCP-3280 will seek out humans within its vicinity, forcing its mass into open orifices. SCP 3280 is also readily absorbed through the pores. the affected experience symptoms such as loss of motor control How are we getting at that? Vectoration, reflux, visual hallucinations, and abdominal pain.

SCP-3280 displays claustrophobic behavior violently expelling itself from confined spaces or containers such as vials or test subjects. SCP-3280 will constrict its mass, lashing out in pressurized bursts which can exceed 255 megapascals, rendering all attempts of failure. physical containment or transportation impossible. When not hunting living prey, SCP-3280 will attempt to exit the underground level that is currently contained within. Thus far, SCP-3280

has been kept away from the sub-level's entrance. I believe that if SCP-3280 learns that it is sealed within the sub-level, It could instigate a violent response from the answer. Irrevocably pregnant thing. SCP-3280's escape. Super Eagle. Once it becomes incorporated into the planet's water cycle. Contingency measures include It would probably be the fun way to kill this thing. Oh, you can't kill me. Gracias. This episode was possible This week, I'd like
