A piece of SCP-XXXX

Item: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: All instances of SCP-XXX must be kept in a keypad-locked container at Site-48. Outside of testing, SCP-XXXX may only be handled with the containment chamber's robotic arm to prevent accidental activation. Testing of SCP-XXXX requires the approval of two level-03 researchers. Tests outside of the allocated testing area are prohibited.

Description: SCP-XXXX refers to 17 16 (see: Test #6) pebbles of varying sizes and color.

The anomalous properties of SCP-XXXX manifest when a human (referred afterwards as SCP-XXXX-1) picks up and throws the object. When SCP-XXXX hits the ground, SCP-XXXX-1 appears to instantly teleport to its position.

While the teleportation happens instantly to outside observers, SCP-XXXX-1 still experiences the entire journey to SCP-XXXX's location in real time. For example, if the object is thrown 100 meters in a direction, SCP-XXXX-1 experiences the effects of walking a hundred meters in a quick pace. SCP-XXXX-1 does not gain any movement-enhancing abilities and must overcome the obstacles, which obstruct their path while "travelling". SCP-XXXX-1 does not retain the memory of the effect. If SCP-XXXX-1's life functions cease while "travelling", the effect immediately stops and the carcass appears at SCP-XXXX's position.

Wearing gloves does not stop the object from activating, however using automatized robotic devices do. In order to activate the effects of the object, SCP-XXXX-1 must consciously throw it; accidentally dropping, putting SCP-XXXX down or forcefully removing it from SCP-XXXX-1 does not activate the teleportation effect.

+ Open Testing-log-XXXX - Access Granted Test#: 1

Goal: Establishing SCP-XXXX's basic function.

Procedure: One Class-D was instructed to pick up one piece of SCP-XXXX and throw it as far as he can.

Result: The object landed 18 meters away, the subject experienced a slight increase in heartbeat and breathing, but was unaffected otherwise. SCP-XXXX was found near the subject and reclaimed. Observation: "The object seems to possess basic teleportational capabilities, but the state in which the subject appeared corresponds to someone who actually ran there. Further testing is needed." Test#: 2

Goal: Determining if the travel is truly spontaneous.

Procedure: One Class-D was given a remote controlled stopwatch, which was activated at the time of throw, then introduced to the object. The subject threw SCP-XXXX 15 meters away.

Result: The watch was deactivated at the moment of reappearance. The display showed that eight seconds have passed. SCP-XXXX's recovery was uneventful. Observation: "My theory is, that SCP-XXXX doesn't really teleport its user, but stops time for everyone, other than the subject and their belongings." Test#: 3

Goal: Determining how much can SCP-XXXX-1 affect its surroundings.

Procedure: One Class-D was instructed to throw SCP-XXXX through an opening, which connects to another room. The rooms are separated by a locked door. The key was put near the lock in plain sight.

Result: The subject appeared in the other room. The key was found in the lock, with the door being open. Observation: "This confirms my hypothesis. It seems that the subject can freely manipulate objects in frozen time." Test#: 4

Goal: Determining if SCP-XXXX grants it's user any kind of anomalous power.

Procedure: One Class-D was instructed to throw the object out from a locked room, from an opening which was smaller than the subject was able to fit through.

Result: The subject expired upon reappearing. The body has suffered numerous injuries and blunt force trauma, presumably from trying to break the locked door and trying to fit through the small opening. The object was recovered without any incidents. Observation: "Looks like the object forces it's user to relentlessly try to approach its position. Also it's worth noting that, if the subject expires, the body experiences actual teleportation." Test#: 5

Goal: Determining the effects of prolonged exposure to the object's effect.

Procedure: Agent T████, with above-average endurance and strength, volunteered to test the object extensively. The agent was escorted to the top of Mt. [REDACTED] at ██\██\████ with one piece of SCP-XXXX, standard hiking gear, a standard Glock-17 firearm, one (1) diary with a frost proof pen and supplies for three weeks. T████ threw the object aiming at the base of the mountain.

Result: The agent reappeared close to the base-camp, suffering from hypothermia and bearing frostbite wounds. His firearm and hiking gear were missing, however the supplied diary was still clenched in his hands. The agent had no memories of writing into the diary. After being treated of his conditions, the agent returned to his duties following a short medical leave. The SCP-XXXX was deeply encased in snow, but other than some slight degradation from the cold, it was unharmed and successfully recollected.

While the diary is mostly unreadable, the following can be summarized: Every conscious being the agent encountered was frozen in place, unaffected by stimuli.

The day and night cycle did not stop and the agent could still manipulate his surroundings.

The agent experienced a strong pulling feeling towards SCP-XXXX's location, which he described as an "invisible compass".

The agent showed symptoms of mania after being under the effect for a prolonged time, partially losing control of their body. Test#: 6

Goal: Determining how the object interacts with the subject, after it has been divided into multiple pieces.

Procedure: One piece of SCP-XXXX was pulverized into twenty-seven small pieces, which were given to the Class-D test subject.

Result: The subject threw the pieces of SCP-XXXX which scattered mid-air five meters away. The subject vanished and reappeared as [REDACTED]. The remains were incinerated with the on-site incinerator, along with the pieces of the object. Observation: "Well, it was pretty obvious, but that doesn't mean we don't have to try it. Testing with broken pieces is hereby suspended for being too dangerous."
