The SCP Foundation, a secret organization that contains and researches anomalous objects and entities, discovered a mysterious cave in Joppa, Indiana, that led to a mirror dimension. The cave, designated as SCP-2935, was found to be a passageway between two dimensions, with the mirror dimension being identical to our world but with a major difference - everything was dead, with no signs of life or decomposition.
A team of agents, known as Manifest Destiny, was sent to investigate the mirror dimension, where they found the perfectly preserved corpses of a family and later, the corpses of their own colleagues from the mirror universe. They also discovered that the extinction event that occurred in the mirror dimension was total and absolute, with even the deadliest creatures, like SCP-682, being killed.
As the team delved deeper into the mystery, they accidentally activated the base's nuclear fail-safe, which led to their own deaths. The foundation was left with a message from one of the agents, Agent Keller, who warned them to seal the entrance to SCP-2935, as it was a passageway through which absolute death could pass from dimension to dimension, and their dimension was the next in line.
The foundation followed Keller's advice and sealed the entrance to SCP-2935 with concrete, keeping it under constant watch, as they knew that what waited behind the barrier was an entity even they had no power to stop.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. SCP-2935 is an anomaly discovered by the SCP Foundation on April 28, 2016.
2. The anomaly is located in an unincorporated area of Joppa, Indiana, near US Interstate 70.
3. The anomaly is a passageway between two dimensions.
4. The first exploratory mission into SCP-2935, codenamed "Gauntlet," was conducted by a four-man team from Mobile Task Force Epsilon-13.
5. The team found a lifeless, post-apocalyptic world in the mirror dimension, with no signs of plant or animal life.
6. The team discovered a farmhouse with a family of four corpses, with no signs of decomposition or cause of death.
7. The team found that all living organisms in the mirror dimension had died suddenly and simultaneously.
8. A second expedition, codenamed "Overland," was conducted by a 16-member team, including Agent Roy and Agent Juno.
9. The team found the corpses of their mirror universe counterparts, including the corpses of top scientists, at Site-81.
10. The team discovered that SCP-682, a supposedly immortal anomaly, was also dead in its tank.
11. Agent Roy's team accidentally activated the base's on-site nuclear weapon, which incinerated the entire team.
12. The automated drones returned to the field operations in Dimension Prime, but none of the footage or information gathered from SCP-2935 explained the cause of the extinction event.
13. Agent Keller's final message suggested that the entity responsible for the extinction event was the specter of death itself, which followed him back into his world.
