SCP-9835 (Troll Blood)

Item #: SCP-9835

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: There are currently no known ways of fully containing SCP-9835, researching ways to stop it are in development. If SCP-9835 is predicted to appear in an area they will be given the pretense of a large storm, to minimize casualties, they'll be ordered to close their windows. Any victims that have seen SCP-9835 should be transported to the nearest hospital and given Class B Amnesties. If an instance of SCP-9835-1 is seen "floating in blood" it is to be destroyed immediately.

Description: SCP-9835 is a red cloud with similar properties to rain, but is instead human blood. Tests have concluded this blood is usually 17-24 years old.  It is also notable that the cells of SCP-9835's blood tend to be larger than they would normally be. However, no typical biological mechanisms have been identified to explain this effect.

SCP-9835 appears around nearly abandoned urban cities, where it has a chance to show up randomly in the area with the least amount of people at night. While SCP-9835 itself is mostly not harmful, individuals that come in contact with SCP-9835's blood will have the sudden urge to cover themself in more blood because "blood floats on blood". (See Test Log 1-A) The blood interacts with objects the same way water would and dissolves after approximatly 6 minutes, meaning locking yourself inside or wearing protective gear are two of the only ways to stay safe.

When subjects are covered in more than 40mm of blood from SCP-9835, they will be transformed into a black humanoid with relatively skinny limbs, no eyes a thick white jaw and blood constantly pouring out of the eye sockets, now referred to as SCP-9835-1. SCP-9835-1 will then float up into SCP-9835, joining any other instances of SCP-9835-1 that may follow. All instances of SCP-9835-1 are to be dealt with extreme caution, sniper rifles and rocket launchers seem to work best.

While SCP-9835 is moving, there is a chance that SCP-9835-1 will start lashing out, violently attacking anyone nearby. SCP-9835 will not intervene in this, instead sending out red clouds of blood causing many more victims to get "covered".

SCP-9835 and all instances of SCP-9835-1 will disappear after it deems enough subjects have been covered or if theres not enough subjects outside at the time. Next time SCP-9835 reappears the SCP-9835-1 instances will appear along with it and depending on the quantity of SCP-9835-1 instances will amplify the rate of which the blood from SCP-9835 appears. As the numbers increase, the more violent and angry SCP-9835 becomes.

Test Log 1-A:

+ The squad of operatives was sent into SCP-9835's environment on ██/██/20██ occuring in ██████, Maryland. A newly transformed instance of SCP-9835-1 started speaking to an operative, this is the first recorded incident of SCP-9835-1 speaking.

Following is a transcript of the events:

<Begin Log>

SCP-9835-1: "Blood floats on blood."

Anonymous Operative: "You can speak?"

SCP-9835-1: "We speak."

SCP-9835-1: "We are all in pain, one of us will stop the pain and the pain will stop."

Anonymous Operative: "How do you know this?"

SCP-9835-1: "Death is coming soon, it waits for us, it does not go away until it finds us."

SCP-9835-1: "Blood floats on blood."

SCP-9835-1: "Come with me and you will be free."

As the operative is retreating the SCP-9835-1 instance swiftly follows them and engages in combat.

SCP-9835-1: "Please be still."

SCP-9835-1: "We will let you live."

SCP-9835-1: "Let's fight together."

SCP-9835-1: "Run, you will not be safe."

SCP-9835-1: "Laugh now, enjoy your time with us."

The operative then shoots SCP-9835-1 in the torso.

SCP-9835-1: "Hold on."

SCP-9835-1: "That's enough."

SCP-9835-1: "I'll be back for you."

SCP-9835-1 then floats into SCP-9835.

The operative emerges, unharmed and and the members of the squad exit SCP-9835's environment.
