SCP 2845, The Deer.

How do you contain a god?

The answer to that question, of course, probably varies depending on the god.

For some, the answer might be you don't.

For others, maybe you convince the world to stop believing in them,

and for others, maybe you just ask them. There are forces in the SCP universe, however, that

won't go politely, and don't care who believes in them or not, but represent a massive threat

to the world and must be contained by the foundation somehow.

On November 27, 2011, a comet was cited in space, although it wasn't on a trajectory to impact Earth.

A few days later, the existence of the comet was confirmed by multiple observatories, and

two weeks later, a fragment of the comet broke off, maintaining a constant speed.

This fragment was confirmed to have a trajectory that would connect to Earth, and so public announcements and evacuations commenced.

Four days later, the fragment lands in the Pacific Ocean, and over the next three days, SCP 2845 crosses 124 kilometers of the ocean to reach the western coast of the United States.

On Christmas Day 2011, civilians begin to upload video footage of 2845, and it is confirmed

to be hostile. The foundation joins forces with the Global Occult Coalition to recover and contain the entity.

But the following day, artillery bombardment commences.

Observation of 2845's capabilities and nature forced the Foundation to bring in outside containment consultants.

On December 30th, an unknown event causes the Foundation and in outside containment consultants.
