An instance of SCP-4151-1 and several instances of SCP-4151-2
Item #: SCP-4151
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4151 is contained within Area-71. SCP-4151 is to be monitored by at least two guards equipped with light arms and Class A amnestics. Any human that appears in SCP-4151 is to be apprehended and given medical attention by on-site staff. Once they are deemed medically stable by the on-site staff, they are to be administered Class A amnestics and released.
Any instances of SCP-4151-3 are to be sedated and quarantined. After extensive analysis (see Protocol-4151), any instance of SCP-4151-3 determined to be nonanomalous is to have its digestive tract emptied and sterilized. The instance of SCP-4151-3 is to then be administered Class A amnestics and be released. Any instance of SCP-4151-3 determined to be anomalous are to be terminated and cremated.
Description: SCP-4151 is an orchard of 506 507 508 European crab apple trees (Malus Sylvestris), however, this number is subject to change due to the nature of the anomaly and is to be updated by the staff of Area- 71 bimonthly. SCP-4151 is located within the city of ██████, Italy.
At unknown intervals, nonanomalous humans will appear within SCP-4151. Humans discovered within SCP-4151 have been of multiple nationalities, races, ages, and genders. Most humans discovered within SCP-4151 have been reported to appear disoriented and confused. Every human discovered within SCP-4151 has been severely malnourished. After extensive background checks of every human apprehended, it was determined that there was no connection between them besides their malnourishment. Every human discovered has been matched to a pre-existing person in the Foundation's database.
The individual trees of SCP-4151 will be referred to as SCP-4151-1. Trunk, roots, limbs, and leaves of instances of SCP-4151-1 appear visually to be nonanomalous and are visually indistinguishable from a nonanomalous European crab apple tree (Malus Sylvestris). However, when the material comprising instances of SCP-4151-1 was tested, it was discovered that it contained large amounts of human (Homo Sapiens) DNA.
The fruits of SCP-4151-1 will be referred to as SCP-4151-2. Instances of SCP-4151-2 appear to be nonanomalous fruits of a European crab apple tree (Malus Sylvestris) and only present anomalous properties when digested by a human. Instances of SCP-4151-2 induce an effect on the subject similar to the effects of heroin (Diacetylmorphine). Any subject that digests an instance of SCP-4151-2 is classified as an instance of SCP-4151-3. After digesting an instance of SCP-4151-2, the subject's eyes will begin to dilate. The subject will then often express a feeling of pleasure. The subject will then begin to actively seek out other instances of SCP-4151-2. The subject will become increasingly erratic if they are unable to find or ingest instances of SCP-4151-2.
Two to four minutes after digesting an instance of SCP-4151-2, certain parts of the subject's body will begin to shut down if they are not strictly necessary to the subject in the continued ingestion of instances of SCP-4151-2 . Other parts of the subject's body, such as the hands or stomach, will begin to rapidly expand and contort themselves to become more efficient at specifically collecting and digesting instances of SCP-4151-2. This process will continue until the subject's body can no longer sustain its alterations and the subject expires.
Addendum 1: The following is a list of observations of D-190453 after being instructed to ingest an instance of SCP-4151-2.| Time after start of test (minutes:seconds) | Observations |

<Begin Log>
Dr. Flores: How are you feeling Mr. Bower?
Mr. Bower: Fine, I guess. A little disoriented.
Dr. Flores: Where were your before you arrived at this orchard?
Mr. Bower: Well, I was at my house.
Dr. Flores: And what were you doing?
Mr. Bower: Well I was… Wait, you guys aren't feds, are you?
Dr. Flores: No, we are not feds.
Mr. Bower: Okay, well I was on my couch stoned out of my mind. Now that I think about it, I probably hadn't left that couch for a few days. I mean, I had just bought a whole three grams of stuff, and I had my bong right with me so there was no real reason to move.
Dr. Flores: You say you were on your couch for a few days. Did you eat anything during that time?
Mr. Bower: Nah, I don't think so. I had eaten all my munchies like a week before that and I forgot to buy some more.
Dr. Flores: So, do you remember how you got to this orchard?
Mr. Bower: Well, I got up to take a piss, and like bam, I'm here.
Dr. Flores: So you do not know how you got here?
Mr. Bower: Nah, not really.
Dr. Flores: Okay Mr. Bower, thank you for your time.

Closing Statement: Jack Bower was administered amnestics and released from the premises.
