040 - Sending them away

Taking a deep breath I asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Who...no, what are you?" Asked the scientist.

"Me? I am a Game Console," I informed them.

Noticing the silence I looked over to find that they looked at me with pure disbelief and a look that said 'You're lying'.

"Well you can believe me or not, in the end, all I am is a Divine Game Console," I told them while leaning back into my chair.

"Now before you leave I will tell you right now, I will be paying more visits to your...'facilities' in the future and taking some of your SCPs that I feel you are mistreating."

"What?!" shouted the scientist in anger before one of the armed foundation guards hurried to cover his mouth.

Ignoring his anger I simply continued, "Just because someone is different does not mean you have the right to 'Contain' them, unlike you, I can offer these SCPs a home, a safe place where they won't have to worry about being hunted down or discriminated against because of their abilities or looks! I won't experiment on them to see what makes them tick, I won't sacrifice them or put them in dangerous situations just to test a theory!"

After ranting for minutes I stopped and inhaled a deep breath of air.

"Sigh, you and your foundation are no longer welcome here, get out of my sight," I told them before teleporting them outside the barrier.

Sure I can understand some of the Foundation's methods and actions, but that does not account for the countless atrocities they have committed against the world and its people.

"Are you alright?" Mortimer asked placing his hand on my shoulder.

"No, I am not. Just thinking about the cruelty of the Foundation pisses me off," I informed him.

"I see, don't let your anger cloud your judgment, not all within the Foundation are bad," Mortimer told me before leaving with the others.

Lossing myself in my thoughts the day quickly passed by.

...

[05 Council]

"A few days passed since MTF Alpha-5 entered the barrier and communicated with the entity who we dubbed with the name 'Gold'. In these past few days, we found that we could no longer enter the barrier with a UAV or see anything in the barrier through the use of satellite imagery, as of now we no longer know what is happening inside the barrier..." 05-1 spoke while pointing towards a projection.

"Shit..." 05-2's feminine voice cursed.

"We were able to however record this communication attempt that occurred a few days ago from the body camera on Captain Filps," 05-1 continued ignoring 05-2's curse.

Soon a video was put up on the projector and the council observed the meeting with the entity known as 'Gold' and the freed SCP.

"Who...what is that robot at the end of the table?" Asked 05-3 while looking at Atlas who sat at the left-hand end of the table.

"We do not know," 05-1 replied.

"What about those humans?" Asked 05-3 looking at Zephyr and Tommy.

"We think that the human in armor to the left is...SCP-507, the Dimension Hopper..." 05-1 replied.

"Wait, you're telling me that warrior is SCP-507?! How?!" 05-8 asked shocked.

"Shhh, listen," 05-1 responded.

Everyone focused back on the video and listened as the representatives began to speak.

"So tell me, why is the Foundation camping outside my home?" the unknown human sitting at the head of the table asked

"Before we answer your question can you please tell us where the...uh, the skeleton is?" The scientist asked.

"Skeleton?" The unknown man asked confused before chuckling, "Ha, Sorry but you're looking at the 'skeleton',"

They looked at the man with confusion and asked, "Are you saying you were...the skeleton that...attacked our facility?"

With a nod in response, the man responded, "Get to the point, if you are just going to keep asking me pointless questions then I will just remove you from my home right this instant."

"Then I will get straight to the point, will you return the SCPs you released from containment?" The Scientist asked 'Gold' directly.

Upon finishing that sentence the atmosphere turned grim.

While SCP-507 released his Killing Intent, SCP-2662 released a horrifying and maddening aura and the others just sat calmly looking at the representatives

The man looked at the group before everyone noticed his eyes changed to a dark red, "If you suggest or talk about such a thing again then I will kill you, do you understand me?"

As the conversation continued everyone froze upon hearing 'Gold' claiming to be a Game Console.

Soon 'Gold' waved his hand and proceeded to teleport the representatives back to the camp outside the barrier.

The council was dead silent upon hearing the final statement of 'Gold'.

"Now before you leave I will tell you right now, I will be paying more visits to your...'facilities' in the future and taking some of your SCPs that I feel you are mistreating."

"He's a threat! We should destroy him!" 05-7 shouted while jumping out of his chair.

"Agreed!" shouted 5 other council members.

"And everyone else?" 05-1 asked looking at the 05 who did not vote.

"I think we should first observe and evaluate the situation before we make a move," 05-12 voted.

"Agreed," the remaining 7 members including 05-1 voted for 05-12's suggestion.
