- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Okay Command, we're getting closer.
- MTF Soldier 1: I sure fucking hope so. I don't like being judged by something I can't even see.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: We all feel similar One.
They continue down the facility, rusty old pipes overhead, the sound of water rushing though them.
- MTF Soldier 3: That's not water is it?
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Probably more of the blood. We don't know how large this place is. Radar, sonar, everything doesn't make it past the walls.
- MTF Soldier 2: You're saying there could be thousands of litres and we wouldn't know?

- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Corre-
- Command: We have received the blood, Captain.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Affirmative Command.
- Command: It appears to be trying to escape the glass.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: It's probably trying to go where all the other blood is going.
- Command: That seems like a reasonable deduction.
The team rounds a corner.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Yes Comma- Holy shit!
- Command: What is it?
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: I don't know how but there's a male human down here. All of the blood is seeping into him on contact.
- Command: Describe him.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Mid-twenties, Australasian complexion, scars at the base of his throat and above his left eyebrow.
- Command: Anything else?
- MTF Soldier 2: A chin that could drill for oil in a Middle East country.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: No, Command.
- Command: No noticeable memetic effects?
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: I don't think so.
- Command: Anything on the skin that may pose a threat?
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: No, Command.
- Command: He matches no current Foundation staff or anomalies on record. Bring him back, presuming he is a SCP and take all precautions after all the blood has been absorbed.
- MTF Zeta 9 Captain: Yes, Command.
