Item#: SCP-6711

Level 4

Containment Class: safe

Secondary Class: thaumiel

Disruption Class: dark

Risk Class: danger

Daytime Location of SCP-6711, Circa 2017.

Special Containment Procedures: A .25 kilometer perimeter consisting of a 3 meter tall fence around the entity is established, monitored and maintained. The area within this perimeter, SCP-6711-Δ, shall be inaccessible without express permission by the designated authority on the entity. All instances of SCP-6711-A shall be recorded and aggregated on a monthly yearly decades centennial millennial basis to determine further exploration data.

Description: SCP-6711-Δ is a designated area, situated to the northeast of the former Second Springs Hot Springs in the defunct Ancient San Bernardino Land Preserve. The entity is defined as a spatial-temporal anomaly, approximately 3 meters in circumference located off the southern intersection of two unnamed access roads previously used by California State Rangers, as well as the former proprietors of said Second Springs Ranch.

Individuals who pass through the boundary of the entity during the day will experience no ill-effect. However, for currently undefined reasons, individuals who pass through the anomalous region of the entity during nightfall will invariably find themselves in a larger, mostly unexplored space, akin to a large, arid desert, in which time dilations are prevalent.

Within the parameters of current exploration, it can be determined that the further a subject travels into the entity, the slower time progresses for the subject relative to the time outside the entity’s boundaries. Current theories suggest that a temporal singularity exists a the center, at an indeterminable distance into the entity, where if the singularity reached, time outside the boundary would approach infinity.

Instances of SCP-6711-A are long-form wavelength transmissions from MTF Agent - “Coyote”.

Discovery: The entity came to Foundation attention when two civilians looking to participate in activities associated with Second Hot Springs were reported missing. Foundation Personnel embedded in the California Ranger Service, per Protocol Plainsight-201, were notified of the situation and sent to recover the lost individuals. All relevant documentation is contained henceforth.

Transcript of Audio-Video Surveillance

Samuel Lowenthal: Jackson, thank you for your patience. How are you feeling?

Subject-A: I… I… uh… where am I? Where is Maria?

Lowenthal: I can’t share that information with you right now.

Subject-A: What is this… place?

Subject looks around. He looks disoriented.

Lowenthal: You have been in contact with an unknown area of space-time, and are currently under quarantine observation.

Subject-A: Unknow… quaren…huh? Wait, how long will I be here? How long were…

Lowenthal: You were lost in the desert, correct?

Subject-A: I… we… yeah…

Subject-A is distant and distracted.

Lowenthal: How long were you lost?

Subject-A: We… uh… for the night? The sun didn't come up until…

Lowenthal: Jackson, according to telephone records we have, you made a call from Maria Schultz’s phone at 01:34am on Tuesday, May 9th. Yes?

Subject-A:I… Yeah, she wanted to keep trying to reload the map, but it wasn’t working. The phone was at 3%… So I took it from her and called 911… She didn't like that.

Lowenthal: Jackson, today is Thursday, the 18th. You've been gone for 9 days.

Subject-A: I… no… can’t be. The sun never came up… it was only night. The moon stayed… All night.

Lowenthal: Jackson, can you tell me any details about what you saw while you were lost?

24 seconds pass in silence.

Lowenthal: Jackson?

Subject-A remains silent.

O’Harrahan: (In earpiece.) Sam, we’ll pick this up tomorrow?

Lowenthal: Yes ma’am. Any word on the female, Maria?

Subject-A: Huh?

O’Harrahan: (In earpiece.) No one has breached the containment area yet, Sam.

Lowenthal: Maybe tomorrow then.

Transcript of Audio-Video Surveillance

Lowenthal: Good day, Jackson. How are you feeling today?

Subject-A: I’m… I’m still trying to understand. We were only lost for the night. It was cold. So I called…

Lowenthal: Yes, Jackson, do you remember anything strange about the call? Any thing at all?

Subject-A: No. The lady just asked what we looked like and what we were wearing, she sounded weird… I was upset.

Lowenthal: Why were you upset?

Subject-A: It was like she was pranking me…

Lowenthal: Jackson, could you take a listen to this?

Reseacher Lowenthal takes out a recording device and plays its contents.

Begin Recording:

Operator: 911, what is your emergency?

Subject-A’s voice can be heard speaking back to the operator, however his voice is pitched down, and much slower than typical speech patterns.

Subject-A (Recording): We are lost near Second Springs. Send help.

Operator: Sir, I’m going to need you to speak clearer and tell me what you are wearing.

The Operator’s voice is heard speeding up and sounding higher pitched.

Subject-A (Recording): What I am wearing? We are lost! We are the only fucking people in bathing suits with a flashlight wandering the desert! Send…

The line is terminated.

Operator: Sir?

End Recording.

Subject-A: That wasn’t my voice, was it?

Lowenthal: It seems that you stumbled upon and into what we like to call a temporal anomaly. You are lucky we found you.

Subject-A: I remember seeing a flashlight and the sun coming up in the distance, yet it was still night where Maria and I were. I ran towards it.

Lowenthal: Thats when we picked you up.

Subject-A: Yes, umm… how’s Maria?

O’Harrahan: (In earpiece.) I think we are done for today.

Lowenthal: We will talk tomorrow, Jackson.

Transcript of Audio-Video Surveillance

Lowenthal: Morning Jackson, feeling better?

Subject-A: Yeah a bit. How is Maria? Its been a while… I know I’m in quarantine, but..

Lowenthal: I am sure she is fine. I want to ask you about the time you were lost two weeks ago.

Subject-A: You mean last nigh… Oh, yeah its all weird, huh?

Lowenthal: Yes, it is. Can you tell me about the night when you and Maria were lost?

Subject-A: Well, we were trying to make our way back to camp. Maria and I knew each other for a long time and I always had a thing for her ya know?

Lowenthal: Mmhmm.

Subject-A: Well, she was moving outta town, gonna start new and fresh, and I footed the bill. She wanted, like, one last adventure so she suggested the nudie springs. Thought it would be, like, my chance, you know?

Lowenthal: Mr. Kimble, I am more concerned about what happened just prior to your phone call attempt. Can you fast forward?

Subject-A: Oh, yeah sure, well like, we had done a bunch of blow and drank the entire day. As we were trying to find our way back we took a wrong turn down this old dirt path.

Lowenthal: A service road, yes?

Subject-A: I don’t know. We were trying to just follow this fence. When it stopped, I made the call. She thought we should try to head back towards the mountains, back to the springs.

Lowenthal: What happened when you left the path.

Subject-A: I dialed the phone as I followed her. Made the call, then after that we got in a fight. I didn’t want the night to end with her yelling at me like that. This was for her. I love her, ya know?

Lowenthal: I see, now, before you were picked up by the search and rescue team, could you tell me anything else?

Subject-A: I tried to keep us close to the road, every time we went too far out of sight of the road, we moved back. Then I noticed a flashlight waving in the distance, and far away the sun was rising. So, I ran to it. After that I was so tired, all I remember is sleeping and waking up here.

Lowenthal: Did you notice any strange creatures?

Subject-A: Huh? No, just the usual pack of coyotes howling. The air seemed so still…

Subject-A remains silent for 14 seconds.

Lowenthal: Jackson, thank you. That is all for today.

Subject-A: When will I get to see Maria?

Lowenthal is silent for a moment.

O’Harrahan: (In earpiece.) You can tell him.

Lowenthal: Jackson, Im going to be honest with you, Maria… Maria never made it out with you.

O’Harrahan: (In earpiece.) Sam, lets use Protocol Blemish to cover up Schultz’s disappearance.

Lowenthal: Copy.

Subject-A: Huh? What! No! She was… she… right behind… me…

Lowenthal: We will be sending in someone, hopefully, and with luck they will find her. For now, I need you to stay calm and cooperate with my agents here.

Two detainment guards enter the room.

Subject-A: What… no! Please… Maria!

Subject-A post quarantine, was charged in a public court, as guilty in the disappearance of Maria Schultz. Subject was summarily acquired by The Foundation.2 No further follow up is considered necessary.

Archived Exploration Log

Given his previous interactions with SCP-6711, D-101488 has been selected as first exploratory subject into SCP-6711. D-Class is to be given: One flashlight, a stop watch, one days worth of rations and water, as well as a lifeline tether & harness around his waist connected to a point outside the anomalous boundary. Standard Audio/Video equipment is to be used for data analysis.

Due to anomaly’s nature, the majority of proceeding transcripts are time stamped to the date the precursive data was aggregated and digitally processed.

Lowenthal: D-Class, please approach the anomaly. Once inside, please immediately start your stop watch.

D-101488: Yes sir.

A/V feed from D-101488 continues normal operation up to the point of crossing the SCP-6711 boundary. Once crossed, video feed is terminated and only audio transmissions are receivable.

Lowenthal: D-Class, stop right there, can you still hear me?

D-101488: Yes sir, but your voice sounds strange.

D-101488’s voice recording sounds slow and pitched down.

Lowenthal: Your’s as well. What does our transmission sound like?

D-101488: You sound all whiny and high pitched, and are talking really fast.

Lowenthal: Please proceed 10 feet. As you do please say the alphabet.

D-101488: Uhh, ok.

As D-101488 recites the English Alphabet, his voice becomes progressively lower and lower. The time it takes for each letter to be heard becomes longer and longer.

5 hours pass.

Lowenthal: D-Class we will touch base tomorrow.

Digital processing reveals that upon completing the alphabet, D-101488 responded to Reseacher Lowenthal’s previous message.

D-101488: Mister Lowenthal, I can’t understand you. All I hear was a quick high pitched noise in my ear. If you want to know, my stopwatch says 3 minutes, 13 seconds. If that helps.

D-101488: Maria? Maria!

A few brief seconds of running footsteps and panting are heard. For record keeping purposes, Maria Schultz will henceforth be referred to as “Subject-B”.

Subject-B: (In the distance.) Jackson you asshole! Where did you go?

D-101488: You won’t even believe me…

Subject-B: Well after the night we’ve had, try me.

D-101488: Ok, so, bear with me, we are in a time-thing, area, like its not normal.

Subject-B: Hmm…

D-101488: And so like, outside the time zone, thing, months have passed! You've been missing. I got convicted of murdering you!

Subject-B: I’m about to murder you, stop playing.

D-101488: No really, there’s like this crazy government group that deals with this shit. Now come on, follow this rope and we can get out! Come on! Time is like, literally of the essence.

Subject-B: You’re just lucky you are my ride outta here.

2 minutes of running and heavy breathing is heard.

D-101488: Here!

Distant MTF Voice: Freeze! Do not move, or you will be shot!

Subject-B screams.

Subject-B: Jackson! What the fuck! What the fuck!

D-101488: Don’t shoot! I am D-Class, 101488! I’ve been trapped in the time thing!

Distant MTF 1: Let me see those hands! Hands!

Distant MTF 2: Don’t you fucking move!

D-101488: Please! Find Mister Lowenthal, he was the researcher that sent me in! What is the date?

Distant MTF 2:(Voice draws nearer.) Its Friday, the second of April.

Subject-B: We’ve been gone for a whole year?

MTF 2: What, no? No one has been near this thing in over 20 years.

D-101488: Sir, what year is it?

MTF 1: 2038.

A thud is heard.

MTF 2: The female has lost consciousness!

D-101488: Maria!

MTF 2: Stay down!

A second thud is heard along with the sound of the mic hitting the ground.

MTF 2: Get Dr. Richards.

Subject: SCP-6711?

Francis,

My friend, I know it has been a long time. I hope retirement is treating you well. I am surprised I still find the work so fulfilling. Reaching seventy was something I never thought would occur given our line of work, and I can’t imagine how your later years must be treating you.

However, I must digress to the most pertinent matter. I got the strangest email from Richards. You remember right? The intern while we were at Delta? Well, it seems that our past has caught up with us. In respects to Delta, if you can recall, D-101488 and his counterpart, civilian Maria Schultz, Subject-B, have just reappeared post SCP-6711 boundary!

I do believe that given the time frame obtained from D-Class’s time piece, that a formal MTF expedition is warranted.

Please let me know your thoughts on this matter.

Samuel,

It is so good to hear from you. I am, to the best of my abilities, trying to enjoy retirement. My position as Site Director has surely taken a toll on me, as you probably now understand. I try to thrive to my best extent. These quiet years have allowed me much time to think and reflect on all that I have done in the name of Secure, Contain, and Protect.

I hope Richards, as well as yourself is well.

As much as I believe an exploration into SCP-6711 would be beneficial, the possible ethical implications would be against my current philosophies regarding human treatment.

All that being said, should you find a suitable, willing candidate for the mission, I, as the Project Lead on the anomaly, would give my endorsement.

With Reverence,

Former Dir. - Francis O’Harrahan

Subject: Mission Opportunity

Mr. Bazarian,

I am reaching out to you as I am in need of someone with your expertise. We have an anomaly that requires the finesse of a survivalist such as yourself. Your aptitude in previous missions as well as personal feats makes you the best and only candidate. Your K2 ascent and your leadership skills in recovery of SCP-████, certainly come to the forefront. Please let me know your consideration.

Mr. Lowenthal,

Thank you for reaching out. It’s been a rough time for me with the mass resettlement from Florida. Carolyn died a few months back and then I got diagnosed with an inoperable tumor… The shit list goes on and on. Times like this I wish dad was around. I know he wasn't the best Agent, but God to I want to do him proud. I wish they would let me see his last log…

What kind of mission parameters are we dealing with here?

Agent Bazarian,

I’m well aware of all the things life has thrown at you lately. I am truly sorry. To be up and front with you, this is the kind of mission you don’t come back from. Along with your professional experience, I also considered your personal affairs when choosing you as a prime candidate. Should you accept, I shall see to it that you have access to the SCP-████ File, detailing your father's last mission.

The anomaly itself displaces subjects inside by years in the future. We had a D-Class in there for a little over 15 minutes his time, while more than 2 decades passed for us. This could be your chance to start over.

Caleb, this might be your chance to do something amazing. Make your dad proud.

All the Foundation needs is your cooperation.

Let me know your thoughts,

Time: 01:35

Starting Lead: Dir. Samuel Lowenthal

Current Former Lead: Trank Webber

Agent Bazarian: Mic on. Command, do you register? Call sign “Coyote”.

Command: Loud and clear Coyote. Go for final gear check.

Coyote: Five day rations and tool kit all check. Tether…

A tugging sound is heard.

Coyote: Tether secure.

Command: Thats great, Coyote. Please proceed to Boundary.

Coyote: Copy Command.

Lowenthal: Ok Caleb, you’re all set to go in. We will monitor you throughout the years on our side. Just keep us updated with an entry every 12 hours your time.

Coyote: You got it doc. Anything else?

Lowenthal: No, just thank you for your time. I hope when you come back, there’s something worth all you’ve lost. I do believe this will be the last we ever speak. Your father would be proud.

Coyote: Thank you, doc. Command, permission to proceed into SCP-6711?

Command: Granted.

Lowenthal: Godspeed.

MTF Transmission

Command. First log. Travel time, 12 hours, 4 minutes. Distance traveled, around 15 kilometers. I am doing my best to stay in a straight line, that way getting back, when the time comes, should be easier. Despite being a moonless night when entering, the space is illuminated by a full moon. It makes seeing easier. The terrain here is pretty uniform, a few large jutting rock faces every half kilometer or so. Very devoid of vegetation. The most common vegetation is the occasional Joshua Tree as well as some tumble weeds. Animal life, if it does live in here is extremely sparse.

Command Response

Agent Coyote, this is Project Lead on SCP-6711, Site-Delta Director, Trank Webber, the year is 2136. The world outside is still very much recognizable. We have updated your transmissions to “SCP-6711-A”. We will be able to respond to you for only a short time more, as sending these long wave frequency transmissions can only reach a finite limit. We will advise when communication is no longer viable. For now, it was nice to speak with you, if only one way. I want you to know you’re kind of a legend around here. Godspeed.

SCP-6711-A Transmission

Command. Second log. Travel time, 24 hours, 8 minutes. Distance traveled, around 34 kilometers. Surprisingly, the weather here, stays a constant 76.5 degrees Fahrenheit, and does not seem to have any moving air currents, or even weather for that matter. It is always night, with a full moon, no stars… I find it strange, but comforting that I can see well.

Command Response

SCP-6711-A, good to hear your voice. This is Static Command Post Delta. Established solely to monitor SCP-6711-A transmissions. Many anomalies have been neutralized in the time you have been gone. With the merging of many, what you would call G-O-I’s, the GOC, and the Foundation into the "Foundation of Greater Earth". We seek to only contain Thaumiel entities and those entities that may provide Thaumiel status. Fortunately, SCP-6711 has been deemed as such and you may continue to exist within it. This will be our last transmission as we can no longer physically produce lower wavelength frequencies into SCP-6711. We have built a native code within the Foundation Database called “Coyote Ugly” that will ensure that no matter when you are, your voice is heard. You are on your own now. Godspeed.

FIN-6711-A Transmission

Command. Third log. Travel time, 36 hours, 12 minutes. Distance traveled, around 56 kilometers. Coyote Ugly, huh? Good name. So I guess I just keep going? Keep speaking? Now, it’s starting to feel real. Knowing that I’m just recording into the void. For me, knowing its been just over a day, but god knows how many years outside… I read somewhere once that a man dies twice, the first time when his life comes to an end, the second when his name is said for the last time. I wonder… have I past the second part before the first? (SCP-6711-A pauses and sighs.) I just… Ok, no time for that. (SCP-6711-A laughs.) No time! Haha! Ok, well… I notice a large rock face about 30 kilometers in the distance. Thank you NODs! The summit seems to provide a great vantage point to survey a larger portion of the area. My goal is to trek hard towards it.

Regarding FGE Item Number .6711

The FGE looks forward to further updates regarding the space and state of the FIN-.6711 area. Should future endeavors be unmitigated against some of our greatest Threats, FIN-.6711 shall be considered as a potential Ark.

FGE-.6711-A Transmission

Command. If you would even be called that still… How many years? Centuries? For me, its 50 hours, 6 minutes. I have made it to the top of the rock face. It took some serious climbing. I’d say the face was 200 feet… plus. When I reached the top…(Silence for 8 seconds.) The land, SCP-6711… it’s… it’s massive. I can see my tether disappear into the distance, to what would be west. But the space… its so incredibly flat that there is no horizon. No curvature… just a flat expanse of the same terrain. It continues on in all directions… I’m unsure if it ever changes, but it looks as ancient as the Mojave always has. I wonder why? This used to be a sea at some point, right? There are tall, dark mountains beyond the flat distance that surrounds the entire area. I tried to use my LDM to measure the distance, but the beam never returned. I only got back the message, “Unreceived”. I’ll be camping here for the night and will make my descent tomorrow.

CACS Transmission

Fuck. Ok. So. Sorry, to whoever may be listening. I know I am overdue for my report. Let’s just say I met some… unforeseen problems, and I think I know why. First off, I am off the rock. Second, pertinent to the mission, I guess is that, there is nothing left out here, just more space… Maybe somewhere out there is an edge, but I don’t think me spending all of eternity to find it is my goal. I feel I have accomplished what I set to do. Any organization getting this should be satisfied with my limited insight. Third… well, I’m… I’m not doing so great. It seems the tension on my tether cord was overwhelmed.. I was just starting the descent from the rock face when this happened. I managed to catch myself on my 3rd belay bolt, about 25 feet down, however the overhang provided just enough arch length for me to slam much harder than expected into the face. My ankle and shin took the brunt of the impact and I am unsure of their diagnosis, however, currently immobile, possibly broken, seems to be the case. Oh yeah time, I guess y’all need that. Time, 64 hours, 2 minutes.

Regarding CACS Transmission

The automated CACS response unit for .6711-Aggregated Time Anomaly, found no pertinent data regarding previous interception. Anomaly still behaves as initially described. The sentient life currently inside is deemed important, though expendable. Response unit will remain active for any changes per native sub-protocol: Coyote-Ugly.

Unknown Transmission, (Recovered by PROGRAMMING ERROR: CYTUGL -████-ATA)

Its been 89 hours, 22 minutes. Sorry to whoever I need to be sorry to for not recording on the dot. So, after I made it down off the face, alive, with no honorable mentions for my tether friend here. I pulled all of what I could for about 2 hours, only to find a severely aged and frayed end of the line. Given that even just post-boundary, time progresses at least at twice, if not three times more than pre-boundary, I guess so much time has passed that my tether cord deteriorated and snapped. Hell, how long have I been here? How long does it take for a kevlar support to break down? After the fall, I am unsure of which way is back, and with no rope to guide me, I guess I’ll just have to track its markings in the sand to get back. Gotta stay vigilant if I ever wanna see the other side of this thing. Less than 2 days of food remains, and I have about… fuck… 64 kilometers back. This is gonna be tough.

Thoughts on the Recent Transmission

The retired CACS entity number, formally known as FGE-.6711-A is still transmitting a coherent signal. Re-designation to formal Archival Number for retrieval processes are to occur. Pending approval for Experimental Data Protocol - "Everett"
