222: It'll wear off in an hour. We're the GOC 
"Hive Collapse" Strike Team. I'm "Bear". It's a 
pleasure to meet you. 


(Amidst protests the team is moved to the 
center of the room by an additional four GOC 
members, all in yellow suits.) 


SiteCommand: We have just received 
validation of their claim. Due to our terms of 
engagement with the GOC, we cannot offer 
additional aid to MTF Mu-Pi-6 at this time. 


MP6-1: Shit. What are you planning to do with 
us? 


Bear: We've verified that you're from The 
Foundation, which is the only reason that the 
majority of you will get out of here alive. 


MP6-1: The Majority? Now listen here, pal- 


Bear: "Honey Badger", scan them for 
infection. 


Honey Badger: On it. 


MP6-1: How dare you insinuate that we've 
been infected. 


Honey Badger: You'd be surprised at how 
hard it is to detect infection. Our team lost a 
few members before we developed the 
technology. 


MP6-2: Why did you massacre all of those 
Chaos Insurgency agents? Wouldn't you want 
to leave any alive for interrogation? 


Bear: No, there isn't any reason to let them 
live anymore. They've more or less decided to 
let the bees take over their sad excuses of a 
body. There are rumors that even some of the 
Delta Command have been infected. Now 
a'days we just kill them and get all of the 
information that we need from their brain 
honey. Intel has indicated that they're the most 
likely culprits behind this spread of infection, 
so we need as much information from them as 
we can get. Their pathetic ideology has made 
our lives real easy in some ways. 


Honey Badger: They're dead men walking. 


MP6-4: Where does that leave us? Will you be 
harvesting our brains as well? 


Bear: No. My supervisors made it clear to 
avoid pestering The Foundation when 
possible. "Honey Badger", which ones have 
been infected? 


Honey Badger: These three, sir. 
(Three gunshots are heard.) 

MP6-3: THE FUCK? I'LL KILL YOU! 
MP6-1: Explain yourself! 


Bear: Those 3 were infected and had to be 
terminated. Given your outfits, | don't think 
you've realized just how infectious the bees 
are. 


MP6-3: So you killed them? They weren't 
zombies! They were still themselves! 


Bear: (Motions to another GOC member) Get 
the cleanup crew "Raccoon". | don't want to 
see a speck of blood here. (Looks at MTF Mu- 
Pi-6) That may be true, but given enough time, 
they will stick out like sore thumbs, all the 
while becoming ample targets for your 
enemies to hunt down. 


MP6-1: That doesn't excuse your actions! 


Bear: Listen here little lady: If it wasn't for our 
intervention your entire damn site would be 
overrun with those things. Maybe if you've 
spent a little more time thinking with that 
noggin of yours you'd realize that you three 
aren't the only ones to have lost people to this 
thing! 


MP6-3: Oh you can fuck right off. 
MP6-2: What's going to happen to us? 


Honey Badger: Nothing, you're free to go as 
soon as you Can move again. 


Bear: Alright, enough talk. We need to clean 
up and move to the next location.

Addendum 3368.8: Per protocol, The Foundation issued a formal 
request for an apology to the GOC due to the loss of personnel at 
their hands. Three days following this request, Foundation 
operatives obtained several packages from the GOC, which 
contained blueprints for paratechnology related to SCP-3368, as 
well as a small collection of fully built versions. Most notable are the 
"Yellow Suits". Yellow Suits offer protection from head to toe, are 
complete with "indoor facilities" such as insulation and air 
conditioning, and have been explicitly made to "never be removed". 
Of particular interest to the SCP-3368 Research Team are the "Bee 
Trackers", scanning devices which, according to GOC 


documentation, "can find and track SCP-3368 with 99.9% precision." 
In addition to this is a note from D. C. Al Fine, which has been 
scanned and logged. 


[LEVEL 4 CLEARANCE REQUIRED TO VIEW "GOC_Msg_3368_1.Ic 


GOC missive sent to SCP Foundation MTF Mu-Pi-6 
Leader MP6-1 and the 05 Council. 


To MTF Mu-Pi-6 and Their Superiors, 


The Global Occult Coalition High Command 
has received word that our "Hive Collapse" 
Strike Team has claimed three lives from your 
task force. Certainly, these lives were taken 
with a heavy heart and cold purpose. The only 
known cure for this infection is death, and this 
infection is taking over the world at an 
unprecedented rate. The Foundation will note 
that these are not the only lives that we have 
taken in this manner, as many of our own have 
fallen to this disease. To stop this infection 
from spreading, the Global Occult Coalition will 
do what needs to be done, no matter the cost. 


To this end, The Global Occult Coalition has 
derived a simple ultimatum for veiled 
organizations: The infected members are to be 
purged, regardless of their status as friend or 
foe. To prevent these situations from arising in 
the future, we will extend our hand and offer 
The Foundation our paratechnology. It is in 
both our interests that The Foundation takes 
care of their own. 


Finally and most importantly, many of our 
divisions have taken notice of Foundation 
activity around the infected members of the 
non-paranormal political elite. Due to the risk 
of a Broken Masquerade, the Global Occult 
Coalition shall not interfere with these activities 


at this time. However, as an act of good faith, 
we cordially request an exchange of 
information. The Global Occult Coalition asks 
that The Foundation offers all information it 
has on these members of society as well as 
the infection in general. In return, the Global 
Occult Coalition will offer its own research as 
well as a steady supply of paratechnology until 
this issue is resolved. 


Yours Sincerely, 


Under-Secretary-General D. C. Al Fine 
United Nations Global Occult Coalition 


Transcript Log of 05-Council Meeting on / /2016. 
Subject: GOC Request Regarding SCP-3368. 


05-1: The next item on today's agenda deals 
with the D. C. Al Fine's proposal regarding the 
bee infection. Arguments for support will go 
first. 


05-10: | support the use of GOC intelligence. 
There's a lot of information that the GOC has 
withheld from us, and this alliance would make 
for a good opportunity to learn more about 
their paratechnology. 


O5-4: | support an alliance with the GOC. It 
could provide us with a foothold in future 
dealings with them. 


05-9: | support Al Fine's proposition because 
of the alternative; The Foundation cannot 
afford a fight with the GOC. Furthermore, our 
goals align: We all want to stop the infection 
from spreading. 


O5-2: | offer my support as well. | did not 


appreciate what the GOC did to MTF Mu-Pi-6, 
but we should take the steps needed to make 
sure that they won't do it again. | do not want 
any more Foundation personnel to be lost from 
poor containment procedures. 


(7 minute passes.) 


O5-1: If there are no more arguments in 
support then it is time to hear from the 
opposition. 


O5-6: | oppose the very idea of a GOC 
alliance. As Al Fine mentioned in her 
"apology", we are to take care of our own. The 
GOC has their own ideology and agenda, 
which | believe to be incompatible with The 
Foundation's. To accept the GOC's help in this 
manner is to set a terrible precedent. 


Q5-8: | also oppose the proposition. The 
Foundation should not rely on paratechnology, 
especially if it isn't developed in-house. 


05-7: | do not oppose receiving help from the 
GOC, but | do oppose aiding them. The 
Foundation maintains a lot of information that 
is kept under lock and key. We should not risk 
the release of any of our secrets for a problem 
as small as this one. 


(7 minute passes.) 


O5-1: If there are no more arguments to be 
made, then voting shall begin. 


VOTE IN FAVOR OF GOC ALLIANCE TO 
PREVENT THE SPREAD OF SCP-3368 


Support (6): Two, Four, Five, Nine, Ten, 
Eleven 


Oppose (5): One, Three, Six, Seven, Eight 
Abstain (2): Twelve, Thirteen 
MOTION PASSES 


O5-6: Very well. | have a request of my own. 
With regards to this SCP, | truly believe that 
the GOC has made fools of us, and the 
appropriate response is an extreme increase 
in the special containment procedures. Y'all 
should have received a copy a day or two ago. 
My fellow colleagues have shown me some 
numbers and | believe that we can make these 
changes by spring of 2017. | vote in support of 
them to better protect our people from 
infection. 


O5-1: Of course. Are there any more 
arguments in support? 


05-2: | will support these changes so long as 
MTF Mu-Pi-6 and the SCP-3368 Research 
Team receive the required manpower and 
resources to accommodate them. If it isn't 
already obvious to the rest of the council, | will 
approve any change that decreases the 
chances of MTF Mu-Pi-6 becoming infected. 


O5-9: | offer my support as well. Given recent 
events, I'm certain that the infection is 
spreading throughout The Foundation as we 
speak. It must be stopped by any means. 


05-11: While these new special containment 
procedures are a bit much, these bees pose a 
significant risk to The Foundation's ability to 
keep secrets under lock and key. As such | 
must vote in support. 


(17 minute passes) 


05-5: | vehemently oppose these changes. 
They're far too severe, and nobody is going to 
wear a beekeeper suit 24/7. 


05-3: | agree with O5-5. These changes will 
also introduce unethical situations that will 
involve discrimination of SCP-3368-1 
instances. These individuals still retain their 
memories and personality. An Ethics 
Committee Case could result from this. 


Q5-12: | oppose O5-6's proposal based on its 
cost alone. | have crunched the numbers, and 
they tell me that while we can afford this, it will 
reduce our emergency funds significantly. | 
believe that more research is required to come 
up with a more cost-effective solution. 


(7 minutes passes) 


O5-1: Alright, | think enough has been said 
here. Let's vote. 


VOTE IN FAVOR OF INCREASED SPECIAL 
CONTAINMENT PROCEDURES FOR 
SCP-3368 


Support (7): One, Two, Six, Seven, Eight, 
Nine, Eleven 


Oppose (6): Three, Four, Five, Ten, Twelve, 
Thirteen 


Abstain (0): 
MOTION PASSES 


Addendum 3368.9: In Spring 2017, the leader of MTF Mu-Pi-6 and 
The SCP-3368 Research Team met with O5-2 in her garden for the 
first of many monthly status meetings. 


in a crippling loss of self-confidence and self-esteem. 

¢ SCP-434-2 will act and advise the subject for their own 
benefit, regardless of the requirements or well-being of others. 
The loss of SCP-434-2 will cause the subject to consistently 
fail to consider their own needs in decision making, to a point 
that is often eventually fatal. 

¢« SCP-434-3 rarely speaks and does so only to counsel the 
avoidance of activities or effort on the subject's behalf. The 
loss of SCP-434-3 results in the subject apparently losing the 
ability to sleep without chemical assistance and a deep-seated 
reluctance to take rest of any kind. 

* SCP-434-4 will often fixate on a specific object or quality 
possessed by an individual known to the subject and advise 
its acquisition. SCP-434-4 will also react negatively to all 
individuals who are not the subject. The loss of SCP-434-4 
results in the subject losing the capacity to identify objects as 
theirs and, over an extended period, gradually erodes their 
sense of self. 

* SCP-434-5 will advise the subject to explore their whims and 
desires regardless of practicality or the presence of other 
requirements. The loss of SCP-434-5 results in the subject no 
longer being able to experience enjoyment in any form of 
activity, with the expected associated physiological damage. 

* SCP-434-6 will advise aggression, active or passive, to 
counter all difficulties suffered by the subject. SCP-434-6 is 
the most likely to be violent. The loss of SCP-434-6 results in 
the subject becoming almost entirely passive and avoiding 
conflict of any kind. Subjects lacking SCP-434-6 will not 
engage in violence of any kind regardless of the situation. 

¢ SCP-434-7 will advise the subject to what the subject believes 
to be their best long-term gain, regardless of the needs of 
others. The loss of SCP-434-7 will result in a crippling 
degradation of the subject's long-term planning and decision 
making capabilities. 


SCP-434 was first brought to the attention of the Foundation by a 
member of The Order of St _, an organisation that has had 
extensive historical contact with SCPs. SCP-434 was reported to be 
stored in a vault in the Vatican; however, when a Foundation 
recovery team was dispatched, the vault was found empty. Forensic 


[LEVEL 4 CLEARANCE REQUIRED TO VIEW "3368_Monthly_Status 


05-2: Hello you two. I'm glad you could find 
the time to come out here. 


MP6-1: Yes, it is nice to finally meet you in 
person. 


Dr. Bickers: (Gesturing at the plants) Did you 
do this yourself? 


05-2: Well, not all of it. | do soend most of my 
time here. | find that gardening helps me think. 


Dr. Bickers: It is quite impressive. Lots of 
flowers here. 


05-2: Thank you Makshi. How is your team's 
research going? 


Dr. Bickers: Through the help of some other 
researchers within The Foundation, we have 
come up with a Foundation variant of the 
GOC's Yellow Suits. These new Foundation 
grade beekeeper suits have so far passed our 
tests. However, we're still having some trouble 
understanding the science behind the GOC's 
Bee Trackers functionality. 


05-2: That is unfortunate but understandable. 
For now, we'll just have to keep those 
beekeeper suits on real tight. What about your 
research project into reversing the infection? 


Dr. Bickers: That is ongoing. We're still in our 
early stages for that. 


05-2: | see. Let's address the elephant in the 
room. Darva, how have you taken to the 
news? 


MP6-1: Poorly. That note from D. C. Al Fine 


was as far from an apology as one could get. 
The least we could do is slap their wrists, but 
apparently, we're going to join forces with 
them? Did | read that memo correctly? 


05-2: You did. The O5 Council... as a whole, 
believes that cooperation with the GOC is the 
preferred option. They have a variety of 
resources at their disposal that they have 
offered to us, and what they ask of us is 
chump change when you consider the 
alternative. 


MP6-1: Them murdering our own people? 


05-2: Yes, that is one of the things we wish to 
avoid. With these types of global issues, 
there's a saying that if you don't handle the 
situation yourself, someone else will handle it 
for you. Given their long history of incursions, it 
seems to me that they desperately want to be 
that someone else. 


MP6-1: | see... Where does that leave our 
team? 


OQ5-2: Your team will do as it has done before, 
only with more caution and a greater sphere of 
influence. Now then, let's get down to 
business.

Addendum 3368.10: The following personal diary entries belonging 
to infected Foundation personnel were found and noted during 
routine inspection. Routine inspector has since been 
reprimanded.

Personal Log Entry #883: 


Today marks the first month of O5-6's 
tyrannical rule. I'm only half joking here. 
Scientific progress has been greatly hampered 
by these dumb suits. We're forced to wear 
them at all times. Eating, showering, and 
sleeping are still possible through... means... 
but this is getting out of hand. Rumor has it 
that some sites are starting to use D-Class 
Personnel to gather food and supplies now to 
avoid arousing suspicion. There has to be a 
security risk involved there, but O5-2 won't 
hear it. The only times that | can leave the site 
is to visit her for the monthly status meeting. | 
never thought I'd be so pleased to see an old 
lady in my life...
