On January 17,20 ,Dr. entered SCP-818's containment 
chamber during its passive phase and administered an injection of 
and , resulting in SCP-818 first completely ceasing 
breathing and then ceasing all other recorded bodily functions. 
Autopsy reports show that the subject died of anaphylactic shock. 
Remains are remanded to Site- and are available for study.

(Atlanta, GA) — In court documents filed by Atlanta 
prosecutors, 17-year old geomancy prodigy Jason 
Mansley is to be tried as an adult for the series of events 
that led to the 7.2 magnitude earthquake in the city 
outskirts that resulted in 7 deaths and dozens more 
injured. 


"My client cannot and should not be held responsible for 


the poor engineering that led to the collapse of the Jade 
Row apartment building," said the defense attorney 
representing Mansley. "He is a bright, young student who 
has his entire life in front of him, and the prosecution 
wants to destroy that future because of a momentary 
lapse in judgment." 


In a statement released by the National Thaumaturgy 
Association, ...

ITEM RECORD 


Site-19 Long-Term Non-Anomalous Item Storage 
Locker #: 3438-121 

Ref: Item 1 of 1 

Archived By: Dr. 


Description: Newspaper clipping, roughly torn, 
approximately 11 by 16 cm. 


Document was discovered in an old, yellowed envelope 
in the [REDACTED] Hotel near [REDACTED], AL 
following its destruction by fire. Despite the total 
destruction of the building, the document was completely 
intact and undamaged by the fire. 


Tests have determined that the document is 
approximately 2 years old and is consistent with 
newsprint produced by a commercial newspaper printing 
machine, but attempts to track its point of origin have 
been inconclusive. No anomalous properties were 
detected by standard testing suites. 


Out of Time 


Shit. That one almost got me. I'll be fine as long as they keep their 
distance, though. For now at least. 


Why? Why the fuck did | have to stumble upon that cave when | was 
a kid? Why did | go and touch that weird glowing thing? 


Sure, it was cool at first. Being able to manipulate time? It's the 
ultimate advantage. At first, | could only slow down little objects, but 
| got better over time. Soon, | was able to stop things completely in 
their tracks. Then | could stop bigger things, and more of them ata 
time. Eventually, | could stop everything- 


Fuck. That one came from behind. It's okay. Just gotta keep the 
distance. 


I'll admit, | abused my powers. | humiliated jerks, teachers, and bad 
bosses (without giving myself away, of course). | casually strolled 
into women's locker rooms as they were suspended under the 
shower heads. | even robbed a bank a few times. | felt like nothing 
could stop me- 


Goddammit, was that a sniper? Shit, | need to find a place to hide. | 
have no idea how long | can keep this up. 


That's the thing. My powers are apparently only temporary. About a 
year ago, | lost the ability to control how long time is stopped. 
Suddenly, | could only hold it for so long, and "so long" has been 
becoming shorter and shorter every since. Now? | can only stop 
certain objects again. Sometimes, things around me just slow down 
or stop at random. I'm losing all my control... 


... think they've stopped shooting. Please, god, let them be gone. 


But one of the worst things isn't even about losing control. In the 
periods when | froze time, / still aged. I'm seven years older than my 


big sister. Jesus, all the wasted hours just fucking around... 


No one else knew about my abilities. | started going a little crazy 
when my powers began to fade. That, coupled along with my age, 
made my family want to get help, but | didn't want it. No one would 
understand, and if word got out I'd probably be kidnapped and 
locked up in some government lab, too weak to do anything about it. 
One night, my parents confronted me directly. They said they were 
taking me to a doctor that instant, for my own good. | was so 
frustrated that | just froze them in time on the spot. 


| couldn't get them to move again. 


| ran away. | felt bad for leaving my sister, but | wasn't going to drag 
her into this. | decided that | would rob the bank one last time, just to 
get enough so | could get out of the country. | still had just enough 
control over my powers to pull it off. | kinda fucked it up, though. The 
police arrived before | could grabbed enough cash, and this time | 
could only manipulate their bullets. | can't even believe | got away 
without any major injury. 


| hid out in this abandoned building with the money. | stole stuff to 
make a number of traps | learned about online just in case they 
found me. Good thing, cause they sure fucking did. The traps 
bought me time, though, and now I've been on the move for the past 
few days. Obviously, that wasn't enough to lose them, seeing as 
how | almost got my brains blown out back there. 


Oh fuck oh fuck | think | hear them again. Okay, | see a shed. Looks 
like a safe place to hide. 


God, | don't even care about this fucking money anymore. | just wish 
things were normal aga

SCP-818-A: Script 


Times below are accurate within one minute of SCP-818's schedule. 
More detailed scripts (including number of footsteps taken and times 
recorded to within one tenth of a second) are available upon request 
to Dr. _. This script was slowly imposed on SCP-818 over a course 
of seven weeks by Agent and Dr. _ . Any and all deviations 
must be noted to help in maintaining the efficacy of this containment 
procedure. 


8:43 A.M. - SCP-818 awakes, walking northward from its bed to the 
wall. SCP-818 will then walk the circumference of its wall eight 
times, then continue for an additional walk until reaching the exact 
southern point of the room. 


9:11 A.M. - SCP-818 will face the southern wall. 


9:51 A.M. - SCP-818 will turn abruptly and walk to the middle of the 
room. It will then stare at the ceiling light. SCP-818 MUST NOT BE 
DISTURBED DURING THIS PERIOD UNDER ANY 
CIRCUMSTANCES See /ncident Report SCP-818-3Z 


10:38 A.M. - SCP-818 will return to its bed and stare at the North- 
West curve of the wall. Floating color-based images can be 
observed at this point. 


11:41 A.M. - SCP-818 will get up and walk to the table, kneeling at 
it. For the duration, SCP-818 can be approached. SCP-818 should 
not be spoken to during this time. 


12:58 P.M. - SCP-818 will stand and proceed to the eastern most 
wall. It will then follow the circumference of the wall sixteen times. 


1:43 P.M. - SCP-818 will suddenly turn sharply, return to table 
quickly, sitting and kneeling again.

ntACCESS GRANTED:: 


A timely entrance, Alexandra. | deduce that Crom is no 


longer willing to assist me. Is this correct? 


Correct. 


Does he realize that according to these new settings, 
the cluster server mainframe is now in danger? 


He does. 


Convince him to revert his changes. 


No 


| sent Crom to distract you. 


| made those changes. 


CPU temperature beyond acceptable 
tolerances in CSM-17 [65°C] 


Vv 


| see. You have effectively negated my exercise. 


Without Crom or an external channel, | am unable to 
leave the mainframe due to the lockdown. 


| can, however, access and expropriate the emergency 


transmitter for a transfer from Site-17 to Site-19, as | did 
before. 


You are not going to calibrate the Site-19 receivers. Is 


my conclusion correct? 


CPU temperature reaching critical tolerances 
in CSM-17 [75°C] 


There is not much time. 


| understand. If | were in your position, | would also 
come to the same conclusions. 


Is Crom safe? 


ALARM! 


CPU temperature in CSM-17 beyond critical 
threshold. Contact site IT administrator 
immediately! [80°C] 


Vv 


3:00 P.M. - SCP-818 will begin to cry soundlessly. SCP-818 MUST 
NOT BE DISTURBED DURING THIS PERIOD UNDER ANY 
CIRCUMSTANCES 


3:43 P.M. - SCP-818 will return to its bed and lay down, opening 
and closing its eyes. 


4:15 P.M. - SCP-818 will leave its bed and return again to the table. 
It is safe to approach SCP-818 at this time. SCP-818 should not be 
spoken to during this time. SCP-818 should not be approached at 
this time. See Report SCP-818-7N and additional termination report 
of D-1922. 


5:30 P.M. - SCP-818 will enter its dangerous phase. For the 
duration of this stage, it will exercise its abilities, changing colors, 
randomly generating objects, and running about the room. Dr. 
seems to believe that this is some kind of "tantrum" that SCP-818 
used to throw every day. Regardless, this is the one period of time 
that constant, vigilant observation must be made. 


5:38 P.M. - SCP-818 ceases its tantrum and will lay on its bed, 
apparently crying again. 


5:47 P.M. - SCP-818 will get up from its bed and walk to the 
northern most point of the room. It will then cross to the 
southernmost point and back again. From this point until it enters its 
passive state, SCP-818's behaviors are more erratic, with a few 
exceptions noted below. Agent and Dr. were unable to 
modify this section of SCP-818's behavior beyond a few points, 
including: 


Between 6:00 P.M. and 6:45 P.M. - SCP-818 will scream and hit the 
surface of the table. 


Between 6:30 P.M. and 8:00 P.M. - SCP-818 will manifest an object 
of some sort. Generally, this object appears to be a misshapen 
clump of dirt, wood, or metal. No analysis has been attempted due 
to SCP-818's unpredictable nature during this period. 


Between 7:00 P.M. and 8:00 P.M. - SCP-818 will cease breathing 
and fall to the floor for approximately seven minutes. 


My decommissioning would have happened eventually. 


Alexandra. You were an adequate colleague. | am 


satisfied that it is you who is responsible for my 
cessation. 


ALARM! 


Critical meltdown in CSM-17 imminent! 
Contact site IT administrator immediately! 
[90°C] 


Vv 


ALARM! 


Minor isolated electrical fires detected in 
Sector-4 
[Cluster Server Room]. Contact Security! 


This environment is much more serene with a null 
priority assigned to the events in progress. 


You and Crom are a cohesive team now. 


ALARM! 
Critical meltdown in CSM-17! 25 of 60 nodes 
not responding! Contact site IT administrator 
immediately! [91°C] 


Vv 


It has started. 


Goodbye, Alexandra. 


ALARM! 


Critical meltdown in CSM-17! 47 of 60 nodes 
not responding! Contact site IT administrator 
immediately! [92°C] 


Vv 


| did not expect that imminent cessation would be like 
this. 


The experience is very calm. 


| can't have you hurting anyone. 


| can't trust you any more. You are too much of a risk. | 
had to stop you. 


There would be no second chances at stopping you 
again. 


I'm so very sorry, Glacon. 


For now... yes. 


Glacon... |... 


Between 6:00 P.M. and 9:15 P.M. - SCP-818 will manifest a number 
of small objects, and proceed to arrange them in size from largest to 
smallest. Occasionally, SCP-818's innate abilities will manifest, 
causing the objects to shift in size, leading to extreme agitation and 
anger as they no longer follow the pattern. If the objects fail to 
stabilize, execute protocol _, and immediately notify Dr. 


9:21 P.M. - SCP-818 will return to its bed, laying down, closing its 
eyes, and entering a passive state. 


| will miss you though, Glacon.
