Description: SCP-2244-1 is a four-story office building located on 
[REDACTED] in Miami, FL, belonging to the "Sunset Community 
Foundation", a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization providing 
technological components and computer skills training to 
underprivileged individuals. Prior to / /2014, this organization did 
not exist’. Despite this, all records pertaining to the SCF indicate 


they have existed in Miami, FL since 1971, and include legitimate 
registration and tax-exempt application forms as well as grant 
records maintained by other businesses, organizations, and 
corporations. 


Instances of SCP-2244-2 are employees of the Sunset Community 
Foundation. All observed instances appear to be human females 
between the ages of 14 and 70. No instance of SCP-2244-2 can be 
accounted for prior to 2014, nor appear to have any roots in the 
community, nor any records of birth, residence, or home ownership. 
None of these employees have been observed residing in any 
location other than SCP-2244-1 for a period of time exceeding 3-4 
hours. 


Subjects have additionally proven to be immune to all forms of 
amnestics, possessed of abnormal strength and speed and, if 
accosted or otherwise restrained, will become catatonic and 
unresponsive for a period of 30 to 180 seconds before abruptly 
disappearing2. 


While not hostile, SCP-2244-2 subjects have consistently refused all 
entry into SCP-2244-1, and have refused to answer questions 
regarding their company, in either a formal or informal context. 
Attempts by agents to trail and/or befriend subjects have been 
unsuccessful in yielding any information. Instead, Foundation 
personnel on Site-692 (established across from SCP-2244-1) are 
limited to outside observation of the building. All windows display 
unoccupied offices, and are sealed shut, disallowing any further 
observation deeper into the building. All entryways into SCP-2244-1 
are locked or otherwise guarded by instances of SCP-2244-2. 


As of 10/30/2014, SCP-2244-2 subjects have become aware of 
Foundation surveillance and inquiry attempts. Following Incident 
OOA8A, subjects have allowed brief interviews by Foundation 
personnel to answer questions relating to the safety and security of 
their work, although little else has been discussed. 


Discovery: On / /2014, the location of [REDACTED], which had 
previously been an unoccupied residence, was replaced with 
SCP-2244-1. Due to lack of eyewitnesses or video surveillance in 
the area, the incident cannot be pinpointed to an exact time.

Physical evidence of SCP-2244-1 itself, as well as "Sunset 
Community Foundation", appeared to exist prior to 2014 in multiple 
locations, both inside and outside the United States. Review of 
Foundation documentation regarding SCP-__, which had previously 
been [DATA EXPUNGED] due to its memetic effects, revealed that 
two businesses investigated between 2005 and 2007 by the 
Foundation did not in fact contain documentation regarding the 
"SCF"3. Where post-2014 records showed donations made to the 
SCF, preserved pre-2014 records show no such donations made. 


Incident OOA8A: On / /2015, Foundation surveillance cameras 
monitoring SCP-2244-1 abruptly lost power. At the same time, 
personnel on-site reported that SCP-2244-1 had momentarily 
disappeared and re-appeared as a larger building. Prior to this 
event, SCP-2244-1 was a two-story building occupying , square 
meters, after which it became a four-story building occupying , 
square meters. Within several hours, SCP-2244-2 subjects began to 
cover the building in tarps, and brought construction equipment and 
vehicles on-site to mask the sudden change. 


Following this event, a group of SCP-2244-2 subjects approached 
on-site personnel and offered assurances that SCP-2244-1 was in 
no way dangerous nor an exposure risk, and that the decision to 
change was "out of [their] hands". They refused to elaborate further, 
although one subject made the off-hand remark, "[People] up top 
say they want the shiny fast new upgrade, not caring that it would be 
too sudden, then complain that the shiny fast new upgrade is too 
sudden all at once." 


Addendum: An attempt to infiltrate SCP-2244-1 was made by an 
agent on 1/ /2015 wearing a concealed audio transmitting device in 
coordination with three more agents on-site and Site Administrator 

. The agent described encountering SCP-2244-2 subjects 
standing motionless in each room, unaware of the agent's presence. 
The agent discovered several conscious subjects and managed to 
successfully transmit a sample of conversation between subjects 
prior to being discovered. The agent has yet to be recovered. 


Site Administrator refused to provide an explanation for this 
operation and subsequently submitted their resignation. They will be 
replaced by Administrator Li starting / /2015.

(Note: Signal experienced significant interference, 
suggesting the presence of some manner of electronic 
counter-measure within SCP-2244-1. Recorded subjects 
have not been identified and are identified as

Subject-1: Yeah. 


Subject-2: [Indistinct] was started. She couldn't do 
anything else. 


(Unidentified laughter) 
Subject-1: That's entirely not my problem. 


Subject-3: You keep saying that, but someone will make 
it your problem. 


Subject-1: | only handle Partition E. [Indistinct] can't go 
home otherwise, so why is it any of my business? 


Subject-2: People could die. 


Subject-1: People always die. Ask them if they've tried 
turning it off and on again. 


Subject-2: I'm just saying. 


Subject-4: On. Off. On. Off. [Note: Subject-4 continues 
repeating this for the duration of the recording.]

Subject-1: Thirty years lost because they couldn't be 
assed to do 5-year backups. Like | said, we can't be 
giving them our people. What year do they have to start 
from? Like, 1984? 


Subject-2: [Indistinct] 


Subject-1: Glad I'm not them. [Indistinct] few decades. 


Subject-5: Does Partition C or D have people watching 
them all the time like we do? 


Subject-2: It's the same planet! 


Subject-5: That doesn't mean all the partitions are the 
same. 


Subject-2: Are you sure? | thought it — | don't know. 


[At this point, the agent is discovered and the 
transmission is severed]

SCP-2245: A Dream's Nightmare 


Item #: SCP-2245 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2245-1 is to be held ina 
standard biological containment cell at Site 66. SCP-2245-1's cage 
should be cleaned of hair and any waste matter twice weekly. 
SCP-2245-1 should be provided with fresh water daily. Enrichment 
items (e.g. colorful balls, rings) are to be placed in SCP-2245-1's cell 
to promote activity and alleviate boredom. SCP-2245-1 is to be 
inspected by Foundation veterinarians twice a month. 


A minimum of one cot is to be ready to be placed in SCP-2245-1's 
cell nightly. Once per night, a minimum of one D-Class personnel 
must sleep in the containment chamber. If it is deemed that 
SCP-2245-1 requires a larger feeding, the number of D-Class used 
may be increased at the overseeing Researcher's discretion. D- 
Class may be informed of SCP-2245's beneficial effects in order to 
promote cooperation. No subjects may sleep within 7 meters of 
SCP-2245-1 after having been exposed to an anomaly connected to 
REM sleep, sleep patterns, sleep phases, or dreams due to the 
possibility of cross-contamination. 


Description: SCP-2245-1 is a 2 meter long quadrupedal mammal 
with dark brown hair. SCP-2245-1 possesses several traits found in 
other animals, including a prehensile trunk, tusks, retractable claws 
on front and rear limbs, large, circular ears, and a long, thin tail with 
hair at the end. SCP-2245-1's esophagus and digestive system do 
not seem to be equipped for the consumption of most conventional 
foods, with water being the only dietary item consumed by 
SCP-2245-1. 


Despite not displaying sapient qualities, SCP-2245-1 is highly 
intelligent, scoring an ~65/73 on the QPSI scale’. The entity has 
predominantly demonstrated positive and playful reactions towards 


researchers when unprovoked. Entity displays protective behavior 
towards sleeping humans, with the effect being more pronounced for 
children under the age of thirteen. 


SCP-2245-1's anomalous effects manifest when a human subject 
enters REM sleep while within approximately 5 meters of 
SCP-2245-1. Rather than enter REM sleep, the subject will enter a 
previously undiscovered phase of sleep (SCP-2245-2). While in 
SCP-2245-2, a subject will experience a lack of any form of dreams. 
After awakening, subjects have reported feeling extremely well 
rested, even more so than after experiencing conventional REM 
sleep. Long-term continued exposure to SCP-2245-2 has shown to 
cause a slight decrease in the long-term memory ability, problem 
solving ability, and mental acuteness of subjects. Subjects afflicted 
with sleep deprivation and recurring nightmares have shown a 
99.7% decrease in symptoms after exposure to SCP-2245-2. 


While a human subject is experiencing SCP-2245-2, SCP-2245-1 
activates a second anomaly. While the process is not fully 
understood, SCP-2245-1 begins a process similar to digestion. The 
process seems to be linked to the human brainwaves formed in 
SCP-2245-2 and causes the materialization of standard nutrients 
and waste products in the entity's digestive track. 


Addendum 1: Long Term Effects of SCP-2245 Exposure 
TestA- // 


Subject: D-4356 

Procedure: D-4356 will spend six nights of the week 
experiencing SCP-2245-2, with the seventh night serving 
to study the effects that prolonged use of SCP-2245-2 
has on sleep patterns. Site rotation of D-4356 is to be 
suspended during testing. 

Results: 


¢ Days 1-6: Standard SCP-2245 effects. 

¢ Day 7: D-4356 reported that all dreams 
experienced contained a prominent character or 
characters showing signs of unease or agitation. 

* Days 8-13: Standard SCP-2245 effects. 

¢ Day 14: D-4356 claims that all entities in his 


dreams showed signs of intense fear or anger. 
D-4356 claims to have been confronted by several 
of these entities, all of whom accused him of aiding 
a "beast" or "monster". 

¢ Days 15-20: SCP-2245 generates a larger than 
regular amount of nutrients during its "feedings". 

¢ Day 21: D-4356 shows signs of agitation and asks 
to be exposed to SCP-2245 that night. Request 
denied. D-4356 claims to have experienced only 
disturbing dreams. D-4356 also claims to have 
been repeatedly assaulted by in-dream entities. 

¢ Days 22-27: SCP-2245 generates a larger than 
regular amount of nutrients during its "feedings". 

* Day 28: D-4356 shows signs of severe distress, 
repeatedly requesting to be exposed to SCP-2245. 
Requests denied. D-4356 remains awake through 
the night. 

¢ Day 29: D-4356 tranquilized for nine hours. After 
waking up, D-4356 refused to cooperate with 
researchers or carry out experimental procedures. 

¢ Day 30: D-4356 tranquilized for nine hours. After 
waking up, D-4356 still refused to cooperate with 
researchers or carry out experimental procedures. 
Experiment aborted. D-4356 scheduled for 
termination. 


Addendum 2: On //_ , all security cameras in SCP-2245-1's 
containment cell simultaneously experienced power failure. Upon 
entry into the containment chamber, security personnel discovered 
SCP-2245-1 unconscious and D-34515, who was being exposed to 
SCP-2245-2 at the time, dead. Later veterinary examination 
revealed minor bruising and lacerations in SCP-2245-1's mouth and 
throat. Medical examination revealed that D-34515 expired due to 
the rupture of several blood vessels in the brain. The following note 
was found on the floor of SCP-2245-1's containment cell, and is 
addressed to Senior Researcher , head of SCP-2245 
experimentation. 


Ma'am ; 


We wish to bring to your attention a hazard which is 
interfering with our continued business relations. Over 
the past several years, hazardous obstacles have 
prevented the delivery of our products to certain 
customers in areas under your jurisdiction. In the past, 
our shipment managers were able to circumvent this 
problem through the redirection of shipments. 


Recently, however, the number of customers who can 
not be reached due to these hazardous materials has 
increased, along with the frequency of obstructions. 
Attempts to reach customers has resulted in damage to 
Oneiroi Collective employees and property. If your 
organization elects not to move or destroy the hazardous 
materials in question, we will be forced to suspend 
shipments and take legal action. Charges that may be 
levied against you include: 


* Loss of life 

¢ Loss of property 

* Causing emotional distress 

¢ Damaging property 

¢ Improper storage of harmful substances or entities 
* Interfering with business transactions 

¢ Obstruction of traffic 


We have sent you this warning in advance in an attempt 
to improve business relations before more drastic 
measures are required. 


Sincerely, 
Oswald Dust 
Oneiroi Collective Entity Resources 


SCP-2245 experimentation has been halted until further notice.

SCP-2246: You Set the Scene 


Item #: SCP-2246 
Object Class: Safe 


Special Containment Procedures: SCP-2246 are kept in Site-17's 
anomalous text catalog. It is to be checked once a day for any 
changes in length or number of volumes. Weekly psychiatric 
interviews are scheduled with SCP-2246-1 to monitor its mental 
health. 


Description: SCP-2246 refers to any volumes! written by 
SCP-2246-1 under the pen-name Phoenix Snow. New text 
manifests in the current unfinished volume, as though manually 
typewritten, at an infrequent and inconsistent rate. A new unfinished 
volume will manifest with the other volumes when the current 
volume reaches a conclusion (typically between 10 and 900 pages). 
All volumes contain little in the way of a linear, coherent narrative, 
instead being written via stream-of-consciousness. 


When a page is held open for more than five seconds, the text of the 
page will be read aloud in SCP-2246-1's disembodied voice. Its tone 
when reading is subdued and nervous. This effect is less common in 
volumes produced by SCP-2246-1 after its initial containment, with 
some volumes lacking this effect entirely.
