Agent Brown: Hello there Tasha. First off, how and why did you enter SCP-XXXX?
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Oh man, that was so long ago. I was camping with my family, a few months after my seventeenth birthday. My sister and I were playing in the woods, and we heard something. Well, more like the absence of something, if that makes sense. We wandered to the source, and found the ring, with the gates. We thought we'd enter just a bit to check it out, and I swear we didn't even go too far, but then we were lost.
Agent Brown: I would say you look to be in your mid-twenties. I'm guessing you were stuck in there for some time?
SCP-XXXX-1-16 snorts.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Yeah, "some time" is one way to put it. Hard to know exactly, but based on my cellphone's time, it had to have been at least five years.
SCP-XXXX-1-16 hands Agent Brown a flip-phone. It is branded "KOMIO", a name that does not match any known brands.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: I disabled the wireless to save battery, but it was kind of unnecessary. It only ran out of battery sometime last year. But yeah, I've been there for a while.
Agent Brown: Speaking of which, how did you survive? Food and water and such.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Oh there were occasionally fruits and ponds we could use, but they all tasted bitter and made me sick. But I just didn't get hungry or thirsty as fast, it was weird.
Agent Brown: No I'm guessing you didn't get out the same way you came in, which entrance did you go through?
SCP-XXXX-1-16: I'm not too sure, but I think it was to the east.
Agent Brown: You mentioned your sister? Where is she?
SCP-XXXX-1-16 pauses.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: I-I don't know. We, after we entered we realized we were lost. We tried to retrace our steps, and we ended up right where we thought the entrance should've been, but it just wasn't. We stuck together, holding hands most of the time.
SCP-XXXX-1-16 gulps, and takes several deep breaths.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: We encountered one of those monsters, a huge spider thing, but I'm pretty sure it had way more than eight legs. We just ran. We ended up in a weird forest, and somehow outran it. We hid in a little area near a fallen tree, and I went to look, just around the corner, I swear, and…
SCP-XXXX-1-16 appears to be holding back tears.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: I came right back, I, r-right after. I came right back when the spider was gone, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I searched and searched, but I just cou-couldn't.
SCP-XXXX-1-16 pauses to wipe away a tear.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Only seven years old. There's no way she survived, and even if she did, there's no way she'll make it out. It's hard as shit living in there, there are a lot of crazy fucking monsters every where you go, and you can never make it back to places where you've been. I've tried leaving stones and twine, but you run out real fast. I-If you don't mind I don't want to discuss her anymore.
Agent Brown: Understood. Remember you can request a psychologist whenever you need it.
SCP-XXXX-1-16 sniffs. Agent Brown sits up.
Agent Brown: So, what kinds of areas where there? What was your general survival method?
SCP-XXXX-1-16: You know, for all the time I spent in there, for all the getting used to the weird land, I don't miss it a bit. Makes my mind numb just thinking about it. I don't think I ever really mastered survival either, I just was always afraid, always on edge, always running from something. That's what you mostly do, just run away. If they try to cut you off you can just angle a bit to the side and you can totally miss 'em, it's so weird.
Uh, so I usually tried to find something that could be used as a shelter. Those animals, they sure are strong but they're really dumb. If you hide from them for more than a minute or so they'll give up right away, or if you throw a rock or something. Well, then again, it, uh,
SCP-XXXX-1-16 takes a deep breath.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: It is hard to find things once you've lost them.
Agent Brown: I see. Now from what we can see from glancing into the different entrances, there are desert-like areas, forests, lakes, lava or volcanic areas, and voids. Do you recognize those?
SCP-XXXX-1-16 nods.
Agent Brown: Any areas you think I should know about?
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Yeah. You'll see some stoney areas once in a while, real peaceful. There are some spooky looking creatures 8 feet tall, but they seem to be friendly even though they creepy as fuck. The streams there are some kind of healing water, makes you younger and stuff. Wouldn't have survived without it.
Agent Brown: But you said you could never find a place once you left it.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: Yeah, but there would be new areas. You just explore long enough and you would see a type of area again. They just weren't all too common.
SCP-XXXX-1-16 pauses, placing her hand on her chin.
SCP-XXXX-1-16: There were also the spider dens, these rocky areas. Don't go near them, it's real hard to escapee. Uh, and plains were my favorite. No shelter, and cold as fuck, but basically no creatures. They seemed real big compared to the other areas, but you could exit them real quick if you wanted to. They had some giant horned things, but they only ate grass. Well, they did attack other creatures who'd come after you or them, but it's not like they were protecting you personally they, you know. They just didn't want weirdos near their kids.
Agent Brown chuckled.
Agent Brown: todo
