Scp-7038

Item #: SCP-7038

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-7038 is to be monitored at all costs by no more than three high-profile SCP marine boats. No commercial or personal watercrafts are allowed in the area at any given time, and perimeter of 320.04 meters (1,050 ft). During the period where SCP-7038 sucks in water, all watercrafts and water-based exercises are to be banned and vacated until the event is over.

Description: SCP-7038 is a phenomenon that occurs in the Strait of Messina near the top of the strait. This phenomenon occurs during certain times of the day every day of the year and compromises of two different parts.

SCP-7038-1 is a large whirlpool that occurs on the Sicily side of the strait. This large whirlpool occurs at least three times a day and takes in large quantities of salt water each time before it spits the entirety of the water back out roughly an hour after ingestion.

Further analysis of this whirlpool shows a gigantic boulder in the center of where it occurs that holds a beautiful fully developed Ficus carica (common fig tree). Under the water where the whirlpool occurs shows the real SCP-7038-1. SCP-7038-1 is a gigantic obese monster with tremendously large mouth and four circular rows of 5,000 teeth in each row. SCP-7038-1 has flippers for motion, but is shown to be unable to motion through the water and is genuinely believed to stuck to the sea floor.

SCP-7038-2 is another gigantic creature that is on the Italy side of the strait. SCP-7038-2 has the appearance of a beautiful woman from the head to the torso, which is completely bare of clothing. The bottom half of SCP-7038-2 has the tails and body of a serpent that winds all the way to the end which is that of three dog-like heads. SCP-7038-2 is stated to be ferocious in appetite and aggressive in nature.

SCP-7038-1 and SCP-7038-2 were both discovered after 19 reports from Italian fishermen came in about the phenomenon that resulted in several recent deaths of other fishermen. Fishermen would tell tales of the ‘treacherous’ waters that would devour boats and swallow fishermen whole. SCP personnel ended up finding more details on the phenomenon that had been dated back during the earlier years of the Greeks. SCP personnel went to the strait to check it out and located SCP-7038-1 right away. The addendum below details the discoveries of SCP-7038-1 and SCP-7038-2.

Addendum: SCI-1-034

Interview with retrieval team Epsilon-Sigma.

Dr. Chase: So, you are saying you are the only one who survived your trek to find SCP-7038?

'''Sigma Leader Troy: Yeah...you never gave us a description of what to look for. We were only alerted to one entity that made up SCP-7038. There turned out to be two.'''

Dr. Chase: So, describe the experience for the record.

Dr. Clef: Alabaster...

Dr. Chase: Stop!...*looks back at Sigma Leader* Go on.

'''Troy: Well, we heard from the local fishermen about the anomaly and was given a pathway to follow in order to make it to the anomaly. We were on the water for a couple of hours before we noticed the whirlpool that was being created by SCP-7038-1. As we headed over there, we look off to the side, since we were on the other side of SCP-7038-1. We looked at the rock formation when a creature pops out of the rock wall and...This damn creature just swallow several members of my men as I tried to maneuver the vessel out of the way from the creature. As I did that, I noticed we were being caught by the whirlpool and being dragged in. I jumped from the ship and thought some of my men would jump too, but nope. They were dragged down with the ship. I watched the two creatures as a boat came by and rescued me before bringing me back to land. I refuse to go through this shit again unless me and my team are better briefed.'''

'''Dr. Chase: That will not be necessary. Thank you for you time. Perhaps you can give us one last word for the record?'''

Troy: Fuck...all I know is, until now, I thought the Greek legends were false...guess Scylla and Charybdis do exist.
