As you stand outside the containment chamber, awaiting your assignment, a researcher hands you a radio transmitter, a lifeline to the outside world.

"Class D-7895, you've been selected for a special assignment today," the researcher explains. "You'll be exploring SCP-087. Remember, communication is key. Keep us updated on your progress."

Nodding in acknowledgment, you secure the radio to your belt and follow the security personnel into the dimly lit chamber. The heavy door clangs shut behind you, sealing you in with SCP-087.

With a deep breath, you activate your flood lamp and begin your descent down the steep staircase. The radio crackles to life, the voice of your handler guiding you through the darkness.

"Class D-7895, can you hear me?" the voice asks, a hint of static distorting the words.

You nod, though they can't see you, and reply through the radio, "Loud and clear."
