Took care of fellow Scholar Winnie. Almost couldn't get 
her and had to retreat. Right shoulder got torn up, but it 
will heal with time. As | ran back to the shrine, the tree 
threw a dozen or so legs at her and dragged her back. 
Yet another secret it's revealed. I'm surprised at how far 
the tree has come. It's a bit frightening Its judgement is 
sound. Fifty one. 


I'm wanted. | can't believe it. Gaarreth was holding/ 
clutching (??) a paper with my name. | dragged the 
damn monkey back after he was drugged and bit/ 
mauled/chewed (?7?) his face. Let the tree do the rest. 


The paper says I've been kidnapping fellow citizens of 
and eating them inside the shrine. | don't know who saw 
me. | should have been more careful. | should have 
looked around. Gaarreth can't be the only one looking for 
me. | have to go. 


| have to save/preserve these notes. | can come back for 
them later. Suiward and Sari will see reason in what | 
did. They'll let me go. | can show them everything I've 
done, everyone I've dealt with. 


Last thing before | stash these. Sixty three. | have to 
keep a tally.

The following document was found in SCP-2746 in a building that 
appeared to function as a filing/record room. 


WITH SOLEMNITY AND 
RESOLVE 


we execute Scholar Izaak's punishment for his atrocities towards his 
fellow inhabitants. 


Before Our Great War, Izaak was known for his knowledge of 
medicine, being passionate and devoted to helping others. During 
better days, he was known for being an invaluable contributor to the 
construction of the healing houses, which have sadly since been 
destroyed during these dark days. 


While in hiding from his fellow inhabitants, Izaak Crafted a tree using 
his own flesh and bone, with the intent that it would provide him 
food. Though Izaak briefly offered the tree's fruit with good 
intentions, he ultimately used his craft for the maiming of other 
citizens, and took their limbs and bodies to fuel and grow his 
abomination. 


For his crimes against the inhabitants of __, the following orders, 
along with relocation to the under plane, have been commissioned 
for Izaak's punishment: 


1. Izaak's remaining forelimb is to be crushed beyond healing 
limits, then severed, so he can never Craft again. 
2. Izaak's blood is to be injected with charcoal from the Grand 
Hearth, so that the sins and corruption he ingested from the 
fruit of his tree are cleansed. 
3. Izaak will be branded with the names of each citizen he 
caused to suffer. These brands, along with his severed limbs, 
will be transferred to his human shell upon permanent 
banishment from 
4. Izaak's Tree has shown surprising resilience to destruction, in 
both crude and spell-casting terms. To combat the possibility 
of it spreading further, spells will be enacted to permanently 
render all of its seeds sterile. It shall then be magicked away 
to the Unplotted Lands in the under plane, where it will remain 
untouched for the centuries to come.

« SCP-2987 | SCP-2988 | SCP-2989 » 


SCP-2989: Of Bookworms, Bamboo, and Beating 
Hearts. 


Item #: SCP-2989 
Object Class: Safe Neutralized 


Special Containment Procedures: Site-2989-a has been 
constructed in the Arashiyama bamboo forest in Sagano, Kyoto, 
Japan at the point at which SCP-2989 instances manifest. 
Site-2989-B has been installed at the former Barnswood public 
library, Barnswood, Montana, USA. 


While manifested, SCP-2989 instances are to be constantly 
observed and recorded. SCP-2989 instances may be handled for 
observation purposes while not feeding. SCP-2989 instances are 
not to be interacted with or disturbed while in the pupal stage. 


Description: SCP-2989-A and SCP-2989-B are a pair of organisms 
resembling a Japanese Emperor caterpillar and an Orange 
Spicebush Swallowtail caterpillar, respectively. 


SCP-2989 instances will periodically undergo spontaneous spatio- 
temporal shifts, relocating to a seemingly random point in time at 
either Site-2989-ca or Site-2989-B. In order to trigger these shifts, 
SCP-2989 instances will enter their pupal stages, at which point the 
instances will dematerialize and rematerialize outside of its chrysalis 
at another point in the timeline. Of note is that the time elapsed 
between when an SCP-2989 instance enters its pupal stage can last 
anywhere from a few minutes to several years. Though multiple 
temporal copies of each instance have been observed at the same 
time, and SCP-2989-A and SCP-2989-B have both materialized at 
the same time at different Sites, at no point have both SCP-2989 
instances been observed to exist at the same time at the same Site. 
(See Addendum 2). 


SCP-2989 instances have demonstrated the ability to ingest and 


metabolize both paper products and bamboo plant tissues with no 
adverse effects. Whenever dematerializing from Site-2989-B, 
SCP-2989 instances cause the growth of bamboo plants on nearby 
surfaces. Upon dematerializing from Site-2989-a, SCP-2989 
instances cause the discoloration of nearby surfaces. This 
discoloration takes the form of text in modern English, French, and 
Japanese. 


Addendum 1: Samples of text generated by SCP-2989 instances at 
Site-2989-a. 


Text generated by SCP-2989-A: 


| see all your words. 
Why am | still unable 
To find you my dear? 


A blind man is one who sees but has no vision. 

A faithful man is one whose vision is still beyond the 
horizon. 

How then can faith be blind 

And vision needless of faith? 


Wait, | think we almost met that last time. Try aiming a bit 
to your left. 


i must find you i need you i miss you with my entire being 
and yet even though i let all my words flow out from my 
heart in the present they are unable to find you 


Text generated by SCP-2989-B: 


And so we follow endlessly 

The troubles which we leave for ourselves. 
Unable to move on 

Except in this hopeful infinity. 

Unable to forget. 


Why are so many feelings needed, when one 
overwhelms the universe? 


Twirling through the ocean vast 
Side by side two nets are cast. 

Each one hopes to snag the other 
To hold love stronger than a brother. 


I miss you. 
Addendum 2: Incident 2989-ATLAS 


On //20 , both SCP-2989-A and SCP-2989-B simultaneously 
materialized at Site-2989-a. Both SCP-2989 instances moved 
towards each other, triggering a spatial disturbance. Once the 
disturbance had subsided, both instances had merged into a single 
chrysalis. After eight days, a butterfly of unknown species 
(designated SCP-2989-C) emerged from the chrysalis. SCP-2989- 
C's wings possessed a fractal pattern with orange, yellow, and 
green coloration. After three hours and forty three minutes, 
SCP-2989-C underwent a spatio-temporal shift, escaping 
containment. Discolorations on nearby surfaces formed the word 
"Whole." in fifty five different languages! as well as in three unknown 
scripts. No SCP-2989 instances observed as of Incident 2989- 
ATLAS. Object Class changed to Neutralized.

« SCP-2988 | SCP-2989 | SCP-2990 » 


SCP-2990: Silently Soaring 


Item #: SCP-2990 
Object Class: Euclid 


Special Containment Procedures: Mobile Perimeter Beta-A is to 
be established around one or two instances of SCP-2990. Groups of 
three or more instances are to have Mobile Perimeter Beta-C 
established. Instances that separate farther than 20 meters from 
groups are to be contained as singular instances. Class-C 
amnestics are to be used on civilians upon witnessing an instance of 
SCP-2990, though the total period of exposure may be factored into 
the amount or type of amnestic given. 


If an instance of SCP-2990 moves into a populated area, Mobile 
Task Force Pi-1 ("City Slickers") is to be sent to administer aerosol 
Class-S amnestics over the area. In the case that an instance 
remains in the area for longer than a period of 2 weeks, temporary 
stationing of personnel is authorized for monitoring purposes (See 
Incident Form-2990-B). Civilians should also be administered the 
antidote for Class-S amnestics, upon settlement of personnel. 


SCP-2990-A is currently held in Site-45 storage. No further efforts 
are currently needed to contain SCP-2990-A. 


Description: SCP-2990 refers to several intangible, levitating 
humanoid statues. All instances assume the pose of a human male 
standing upright. Each humanoid appears to consist of various 
materials, including wood, marble, concrete, and polymers. Groups 
of SCP-2990 tend to have instances composed of the same 
substance as each other, or at least relating to each other. Testing 
cannot confirm if each humanoid is made of the material they 
resemble, as each is completely intangible and cannot be interacted 
with. 


All instances of SCP-2990 behave similarly to objects in a vacuum, 


and are not affected by friction. However, all instances appear to be 
following Earth's orbit and rotation around the sun. It is currently 
undetermined if gravity is able to affect an instance's trajectory, or if 
each instance is purposely following Earth's movement. There are 
currently 47 logged instances, including 5 that are currently located 
in isolated or subterranean areas not able to be readily surveyed. 


Occasionally, instances of SCP-2990 may change in direction and 
velocity through unknown methods. The changes are usually minor, 
and physical objects do not appear to have any influence on these 
changes. Instances of SCP-2990 are also capable of moving 
through any type of material without resistance. No adverse effects 
have been found in making contact with an instance. 


It is currently undetermined if instances of SCP-2990 are sentient or 
sapient, though trends in behavior has been noted:
