[[>]] [[module Rate]] [[/>]] **Item #:** SCP-3579 **Object Class:** Euclid **Special Containment Procedures:** Any physical instances of SCP-3579-1 are to be taken down by undercover Foundation personnel, disguised as working men and women. Any website hosting digital instances of SCP-3579-1 are to be remotely changed as to not feature SCP-3579-1. All calls to SCP-3579 are to be traced and ended if possible. Research of SCP-3579 is only to be conducted by Level 2 staff using a cell phone with the phone number of SCP-3579 on speed-dial, kept in storeroom 24 of Site-15. **Description:** SCP-3579 is a telephone operated service running under the name “Insta-Gator”, using the telephone number 1-800-███-████. At random intervals, advertisements featuring SCP-3579 will appear in major cities. These are identified as SCP-3579-1. Instances of SCP-3579-1 will feature the phone number associated with SCP-3579 and the tag line: "//Need some help with a troublemaker? Wish you could just eliminate 'er? We'll be your problem solving crusader. Just call us at Insta-Gator!//" When the number associated with SCP-3579 is called, a pre-recorded voice asks the caller to name a destination. When a valid destination is spoken into the phone, the pre-recorded message asks them to press a number on their phone to select an amount of alligators and a special request for an extra fee. When a number from one through nine is pressed, a corresponding amount of fully grown, live American alligators (//Alligator mississippiensis//), identified as SCP-3579-2 will enter the specified area through any body of water within 10 m of identified location, and attempt to fulfill the request. If no water is within the 10 m radius, a small puddle which expands to accommodate the amount of alligators will form. If nothing is requested, instances of SCP-3579-2 will remain hostile. After 10 minutes, any instance of SCP-3579-2 currently not in the water will attempt to return to the body of water, into which they will dematerialize. If the body of water was created by SCP-3579, it will dissipate into water vapour. Instances of SCP-3579-2 display various anomalies compared to regular American alligators. Instances of SCP-3579-2 are always male, exactly 4 metres long, and visually exact to any other instance of SCP-3579-2. If kept outside of a body of water for more that 5 minutes, instances of SCP-3579-2 will suffer myocardial infarction, causing them to cease life functions. Recent scans of the DNA of multiple instances of SCP-3579-2 concluded that each instance has identical genetic makeup. The location that SCP-3579 operates from is currently unknown. **Test Log:** > **Test 3579-01** > **Location chosen:** ███████ Wetlands, Louisiana > **Amount requested:** Six > **Objects present:** None > **Special request:** None > **Purpose:** Initial test of the capabilities of SCP-3579 > **Result:** Six instances of SCP-3579-2 violently thrashed out of the water in a tight circle and constantly leaped and attacked the air above them for ten minutes before returning to the water. > **Test 3579-02** > **Location chosen:** Pond within Biological Research Site-104 > **Amount requested:** Two > **Objects present:** Two Class-D personnel. D-3579-01 standing next to the pond, and D-3579-02 standing 15 metres away. > **Special request:** Attack the Class-D personnel. > **Purpose:** Test if SCP-3579 can manifest instances of SCP-3579-2 in a closed environment as well as test SCP-3579-2's hostility towards humans. > **Result:** Two instances of SCP-3579-2 crawled out of the pond. The first immediately attacked D-3579-01, while the second chased down D-3579-02 and attacked. Both instances of SCP-3579-2 killed their respective Class-D personnel and returned to the pond after ten minutes. > **Researcher's Note:** //Well, that was... gruesome. Remind me to keep that number secure. Ick. -Dr. L█████// > **Test 3579-03** > **Location chosen:** 'Beside me' (Within a research laboratory in Site-15) > **Amount requested:** One > **Objects present:** A live pig. > **Special request:** None > **Purpose:** Test to see if SCP-3579-2 can manifest itself without a water source as well as its hostility towards animals. > **Result:** A small puddle formed on the floor of the lab beside Dr. L█████. Despite the puddle not being deep at all, an instance of SCP-3579-2 emerged from it, with its body half submerged as it thrashed. It did not attempt to eat the pig. > **Researcher's Note:** //Seems these things won't actively hunt unless told to. -Dr. L█████// > **Test 3579-04** > **Location chosen:** A bowl of water within a two-roomed research laboratory in Site-15 > **Amount requested:** Three > **Objects present:** A remotely closed door between the two rooms. > **Special request:** Enter the second room. > **Purpose:** Test SCP-3579-2's lifespan out of water. > **Result:** Three instances of SCP-3579-2 dove from the bowl, two of which attacked the Class-D personnel standing near the doorway and later returned into the bowl. The third instance traversed to D-3579-05 and attacked them. The doorway was locked down while the instance of SCP-3579-2 was in the room without the bowl. After five minutes of being trapped, the instance of SCP-3579-2 suffered myocardial infarction and died. > **Test 3579-05** > **Location chosen:** Within a research laboratory in Site-15 > **Amount requested:** One > **Objects present:** A clipboard with a research notes page placed on the ground, [[[SCP-1161]]] left open in a display case. > **Special request:** Research [[[SCP-1161]]]. > **Purpose:** See if SCP-3579-2 has non-destructive purposes. > **Result:** A sink within the lab turned itself on, filling with water. A single instance of SCP-3579-2 climbed out, and calmly crawled towards the clipboard and SCP-1161. After being hunched over the clipboard for about 4 minutes, the instance of SCP-3579-2 climbed back into the sink. The clipboard was filled out, in scrawny handwriting. > [[collapsible show="Clipboard Filled out by SCP-3579-2" hide="ACCESS GRANTED"]] >> **Name:** instent algator >> **Researching:** scp one one six one >> **Observations:** had werds 'how to build a shelf' and instructshuns on how to bild one. >> >> //The rest of the document is blank.// > [[/collapsible]] > **Researcher's Note:** //Huh, this could have a somewhat useful purpose. -Dr. L█████// > **Test 3579-06** > **Location chosen:** Surface of Lunar Area-32 > **Amount requested:** One > **Objects present:** None > **Special Request:** None > **Purpose:** [REDACTED] > **Result:** A small puddle of liquid water formed on the lunar surface, and one instance of SCP-3579-2 leaped from it, immediately suffocating due to the vacuum of space. The puddle dissipated without SCP-3579-2 returning to it. > **Researcher's Note:** //Whose idea was this? -Dr. L█████// [[footnoteblock]] [[div class="footer-wikiwalk-nav"]] [[=]] << [[[SCP-3578]]] | SCP-3579 | [[[SCP-3580]]] >> [[/=]] [[/div]] [[include :scp-wiki:component:license-box]] [[include :scp-wiki:component:license-box-end]]
