Research Log - SCP-087 Exploration
Date: 11/19/2001
Research Team: Dr. Emily Anderson, Researcher Mark Stevens, Security Officer Johnson
Objective: To explore and document the phenomenon within SCP-087, also known as the "Endless Staircase."
[Begin Log]
Dr. Anderson: Today marks our first official expedition into SCP-087. Our previous investigations have revealed very little, and it's time we shed some light on this mysterious anomaly. Let's proceed with caution, team.
Researcher Stevens: Understood, Dr. Anderson. I've equipped our team with additional lighting and communication devices to ensure safety and effective communication during the exploration.
Security Officer Johnson: Don't worry, Doc. I'll be keeping a close eye on the surroundings. If anything goes wrong, I've got your backs.
Dr. Anderson: Excellent. Let's begin our descent and document any abnormalities we encounter.
[The team begins their descent into SCP-087. The air feels heavy and the atmosphere grows increasingly tense.]
Researcher Stevens: The staircase seems never-ending, as if it stretches into infinity. It's difficult to judge the distance we've covered so far.
Dr. Anderson: Keep an eye out for any anomalies or changes in the environment. Document everything we observe.
[After descending for approximately 100 flights of stairs, the team encounters the first significant anomaly.]
Security Officer Johnson: Hold on a second. Do you hear that?
Dr. Anderson: Yes, it sounds like distant footsteps.
Researcher Stevens: The sound seems to be coming from below us, echoing up the staircase. Let's proceed cautiously.
[The team continues their descent, following the sound of footsteps. The tension in the air becomes palpable.]
Dr. Anderson: The ambient lighting is starting to fade. Stevens, activate the supplementary lighting equipment.
Researcher Stevens: Lights on. Proceeding.
[The team reaches a landing with a doorway leading to a dark corridor.]
Dr. Anderson: We've reached a point of interest. Let's investigate further.
[As the team enters the corridor, the sound of footsteps grows louder.]
Security Officer Johnson: There it is! Look!
[The team shines their lights on a shadowy figure, SCP-087-1, standing at the end of the corridor.]
Dr. Anderson: Document everything, but maintain a safe distance. Observe its behavior and any other details.
[SCP-087-1 starts to move towards the team, prompting them to retreat.]
Security Officer Johnson: It's coming closer! We need to retreat!
[The team rapidly ascends the stairs, closely pursued by SCP-087-1.]
Dr. Anderson: Maintain visual contact, but keep moving!
[The team manages to reach a higher landing and barricades the doorway behind them.]
Dr. Anderson: We have successfully evaded SCP-087-1. It's clear that this anomaly is aggressive and poses a significant threat.
Security Officer Johnson: Agreed. We should regroup and analyze our findings before attempting further exploration.
[End Log]
Note: Further exploration of SCP-087 has been temporarily suspended due to the aggressive behavior exhibited by SCP-087-1. Additional research and analysis are required to develop appropriate containment measures and ensure the safety of personnel involved.
