For years, SCP Foundation managed to study thousands of anomalies, and contained most of them in cells. During one of containment breaches, something went wrong, and together with SCPs, MTFs found themselves in a completely new reality. But was it t...

Your POV: I landed on solid ground next to a pool of water, which I hoped wasn't poisonous or radioactive. But, I didn't have time to think about this, as within the next two minutes my entire squad and almost all the SCPs landed close to me, with the exception of one instance of SCP-939, which landed perfectly on my body and pinned me to the ground until he decided to move and let me go.
Having looked at one another we started wondering where to go, and after a short quarrel we decided to go forward until we found something. It took us only a minute of walking until we found three small humanoid objects without faces, that began approaching us with small knives in their hands. We immediately aimed our guns at them, but before we were able to execute them, SCP-682 had moved in front of us and charged at them with high speed.
They instantly got paralysed with fear and tried to run away, but they didn't stand a chance against the "Hard to destroy reptile", who didn't leave even a single body part as he devoured them completely.
- Don't look at me like that. If I am not going to eat you, then I need to eat something else. - He spoke with a terrifying laughter.
During this short struggle for their lives, one of these beings tried to stab him in the face, however its knife broke without hurting 682 at all. This was both a good and a bad sign, because it meant that 682's powers were still working and he would be able to protect us from most dangers, but it also meant that he could turn against us at any point, while we wouldn't be able to do anything.
Slowly we made our way to something, which looked like an enormous base, where we saw a group of soldiers aiming at us with their weapons, mainly at SCP-682. Knowing they would most likely start shooting if we came any closer, I asked everyone to stay behind while alone I approached its entrance, where I was greeted by six soldiers aiming at my head.
- Who are you, and what are these things?! - I heard one of them saying.
- My name is Y/N L/N, a cadet from a Mobile Task Force Alpha-1 belonging to the SCP Foundation, which secures, contains and studies anomalous objects, and who are you? - I responded while trying not to show any fear.
- We are known as MEG, Major Explored Group, and we are responsible for analysing Backrooms and guiding people through them.
- So you are not going to start randomly shooting at us if we come closer?
- We are not sure if you are trustworthy, we haven't heard about your organization in this place, and we have been here for a very long time.
- It is probably because we operate in the real world, and we got into this place by accident due to a reality glitch in one of our facilities, which messed up everything we had. Our weapons are not working properly, and most of SCPs lost at least part of their anomalous properties while entering this place.
- Then how is it possible the real world never heard about you?
- We stay hidden and die in the dark, so people outside can live in a light. We cannot allow the entirety of humanity to find out about us, so we do everything we can to prevent them from finding out the truth.
The soldiers looked at each other, and after a few seconds they allowed me to call the rest of my group. I waved my hand at them in order to signalize that they can come, and after a brief moment everyone was sitting inside the base, which was probably the safest place on this level.
- We apologize for aiming at you, but we had to make sure you weren't a threat to us.
- It is fully understandable, everyone would piss their pants if they saw SCP-682 coming at them. - Our commander said jokingly.
- I was actually more worried about this guy. - He said while indicating at SCP-2662. - I don't know why, but I had a feeling he was an Eldritch God, a beast from level 5 or something else.
- You are not mistaken, my name is C'thulu, nice to meet you. - He responded with a smile, which terrified the MEG soldier.
- That C'thulu who can destroy the world?! - He screamed in fear while grabbing his gun again.
- Dude, calm down, I am only few hundred years old, and I have better things to do than annihilating the entire humanity.
- Like, what?
- Playing games for example? They are way more fun than screams of fear.
- Sure, I won't believe that, a mighty world destroyer C'thulu playing video games? Prove it to me!
- Okay, 1v1 me in any game.
- Any game you say?
- You can choose, I will destroy you and make you beg for mercy. - 2662 spoke satisfied from finding an opponent.
- You have doomed yourself Mr. Eldritch God, follow me, I will give you a laptop and we can play!
They went to another room and we followed them with curiosity to see how their match ends. All of us knew C'thulu was good, especially at shooting games, so it wasn't a surprise for us when he crushed that poor soldier who was unaware of his skills. The Others, who came with us to see this fight, were hoping for their friend to win, and the result was disappointing for them.
While they were busy playing the game, we began discussing with the MEG about the Backroom's structure and if there was a way to leave them as a group,but they told us that this wasn't a topic to talk in a place like this, and they would tell us everything at Tom's Diner, which wasn't far awayfrom their base.
When C'thulu and their soldier were done with their business, we went for a walk to eat something warm. On our way we have met two more child humanoids without faces who instantly got shot by MEG, before 682 was able to jump and tear them apart. Disappointed in what he just witnessed, he ate the dead bodies while soldiers were looking at him terrified.
- You do realise, that their anatomical structure is similar to humans, don't you? - One of them said with a stutter.
- Yes, but their meat is more tasty that human's meat. - 682 responded with laughter, causing the MEG Soldier's faces to go completely pale.
- Don't even think about shooting at me, I can adapt to anything and regenerate from any wounds dealt to me, there is no way known to humanity to kill me.
- And that's why you will be extremely useful in the Backrooms, as there is no entity which would be able to harm you permanently. - Cain exclaimed with satisfaction.
- I mean, as long as they taste good, I am fine with that.
- Some of them do actually, and they are served in the Tom's Diner, but eating others like Busters should be avoided at all cost.
- Why?
- Because they are filled with corrosive acid, which will hurt you badly if you touch it.
- Not a big deal for me, I am used to taking baths in hydrochloric acid, so it won't affect me that much.
While we were still going, our commander explained to the MEG how SCP-682's powers work, and why it would be a terrible idea to make him angry, and when we finally arrived, we had to organize ourselves in order to get inside without taking the entire space. It's a good thing that Tom's Diner was a large and heavily guarded place, so there were no problems with most of us except 682, who was too big to fit through the door, so after a few unsuccessful attempts of trying to slip him through, he decided to stay outside and hunt for some entities that could appear in the area.
Having ordered our dishes we sat next to a vast table, where MEG explained to us how this place worked and where we should go in order to get to safety. They also explained most of the necesarry entities to us, like clumps, Jerry or facelings, which we have met already. During this time our meals also arrived, which we gladly began to eat.
Having finished our meals we left Tom's Diner we found the that MEG soldiers who were guarding this place, were looking afraid of SCP-682, who was laying down next to small pools of blood from entities he killed and ate. However, something was wrong, and we would soon find out exactly what happened.
