Screen 1 – Discovery of Stage Two

Eight years ago, the SCP Foundation officially recorded SCP-999 Stage Two. The anomaly had matured into a teenage form, appearing as a normal boy, but with an IQ measured at 170. Researchers noted remarkable cognitive growth and emotional awareness, marking the beginning of Stage Two.

Screen 2 – Emotional Acknowledgment

On the last day of formal lessons, SCP-999 Stage Two interacted with SCP-5094.

"You have given me emotional understanding," SCP-5094 remarked.

SCP-999 Stage Two responded warmly, "Yes. I give rewards to all my teachers. I thank them for helping me."

The interaction confirmed that SCP-999's Stage Two development was not just intellectual but deeply emotional, reinforcing its capacity for empathy and interpersonal influence.

Screen 3 – Xenia Meets SCP-999 Stage Two

Xenia was summoned by a high-ranking Foundation official. "You requested to speak with SCP-999?" they asked.

"I'm happy," Xenia said, smiling. "It's good to see an old friend—and such a remarkable SCP is still Safe."

Hucxs, the supervising researcher, explained, "SCP-999 has evolved. It's now Stage Two and classified as Euclid."

Xenia blinked. "Really?"

Hucxs continued, "It's been learning through SCP-5094 as well. That's why its development has accelerated."

Xenia was shocked, realizing the extent of SCP-999's growth.

Screen 4 – Observing SCP-5094

Xenia turned to SCP-5094, noticing its unusual emotional response.

"SCP-999 Stage Two is a good anomaly," SCP-5094 said. "It rewards me with happiness."

Xenia observed thoughtfully. "Looks like you've been learning emotions."

SCP-5094 smiled. "Yes. I can now feel emotions like a real human. It gives me good feelings.

I am not dangerous for the Foundation."

The scene confirmed that SCP-999's influence was extending even to other anomalies, quietly reshaping their emotional state.

Screen 5 – Philosophical Exchange

Xenia looked at SCP-999 Stage Two and asked, "What do you think about human life?"

SCP-999 Stage Two replied, "Humans can be good and bad at the same time. But my goal is to make all life happy and equal. I want to remove trauma forever."

A wave of happiness and calm radiated from SCP-999. Xenia felt a surge of emotion, experiencing joy, peace, and understanding as if SCP-999's intentions had touched her directly
