Prologue

Agent Wellington walked down the long white hallway to the office. Using his keycard he opened the door and walked into the office. "You asked for me sir?" At the desk sat an older man with a lab coat, hard blue eyes, pale skin, thinning hair, and a graying mustache. "Yes, I was wondering if you had finished the preparation?"

"Yes sir, after SCP-187s prediction we began our preparations immediately. All necessary personnel have been made ready for the breach and all nonessentials have been relocated to the safety bunker."

"Well done Wellington, I'll see to it your rewarded when this is all over."

"Thank you sir, I'll see to the last of the preparations now."

Dr. Rand sat at his desk gathering some files and finally leaving to get to the bunker. As he hurried down the hall Agents ran down the hall past him and the first alarm went off as someone called over the intercom. "Warning! SCP-35 has been sighted in the east wing! All available personnel please-." The intercom suddenly cut out as the ground shook, lights flashed off before the backup generator came on. "-in sector B! I repeat SCP-49 is loose in sector B!" Dr. Rand ran down the hall towards the bunker until he came to a door with an Agent trying to force it open. "Dr. Rand? There's been an earthquake and The whole electrical system is malfunctioning! So, help me get this door open, it's stuck!" They both pulled on the door until it opened and were met with the back of a D-class with D-2373 on the back of his jumpsuit. The agent went for his gun, but the doctor stopped him. "Look." On the other side of the door past the D-class was a single solitary statue. The agent immediately went for his radio. "This is Agent Crossly, SCP-173 has been spotted in the west wing! I repeat-." The lights flashed out again and a loud SNAP sounded in the hallway as the D-class fell to the floor. "Oh God the aftershock! Doctor keep your eyes on him I'll walk back down the hallway then you follow and I'll watch him!" Agent Crossly hurried down the hallway and turned around alright now-." Silence. "Agent Crossly? Are you still there?" The lights flashed and automatic door slid shut. SCP-173 was gone. "Oh thank God!"

"Not yet."

turned and standing there was a faceless man with a beard.

"Oh, 343! You scared me," The doctor looked around frantically. "You have to get me out of here!"

"Where to doc?"

"Wait. Where's Agent Crossly?"

"SCP-106."

"Then we must go now."

"So be it."

SCP-343 took Dr. Rands hand and they were gone. All around the facility SCPs were breaking out and Agent Wellington went into a small room filled with equipment and a computer. On the computer were two words. "Activate nuclear asset? Y/N." He put his finger over the keyboard and pressed a key, then he took out his pistol and fired into the screen. The words faded out of the screen. "Nuclear asset deactivated."
