"Heyooo! :3" The little Rodeo said in a cute five year old child's voice.
The four had a look of shock and surprise on their faces with their jaws dropped. This Rodeo had the height of an average five year old child and instead of a stoic face, he had a OwO face but still didn't move as his eyes didn't blink, much like how his previous self had, including it had cute red eyes.
"Pfffftttt! Hahahahaha!! Oh my god!! How the mighty have fallen!!" Evan said while laughing hard enough to lose all of the air on him.
Carlos then approaches his small sized owner, placing little Rodeo and sits on top of his head. The two doctors who watched the whole thing couldn't say a word at all.
"Up! Up! :3" The little Rodeo said to Carlos in a childish manner.
Carlos lifted his head up, as he did, little Rodeo was laughing and enjoying himself.
"I'm so high up! :3"
Then he suddenly lost his grip and fell off of Carlos' head, Collingwood's motherly instincts kicked in and she quickly catched little Rodeo before he could fall on the ground.
"Oh thank God! You alright?"
Little Rodeo just tilted his head cutely and was looking at Collingwood. Collingwood couldn't help but smile and found her heart melting due to his cuteness.
"Oh my God!! You're so cuuuute~~!!" She squealed happily.
Collingwood then started snuggling child Rodeo's face, while child Rodeo found it confusing.
Meanwhile, Amelia Buck then regained her senses and looked at the two guards and asked.
"What the hell happened?"
The Guard hit the other guard's arm, so he said, "Let me explain."

(One Explanation Later)
"You blew up anomalous vials on his face and this happened?!" Amelia furiously said.
"Yep, that's my story."
"Are we in trouble, Dr. Buck?" The second guard asked in unease.
Amelia looks at little Rodeo who was playing with Collingwood and Carlos, while Evan was just looking at the adorable scene, she let out a small smile.
"Uhhh, Dr. Buck? Hello?"
"Hm?"
"Are you gonna promote us to D-class?"
The other guard looked at him alarmed, "Dude, why the hell would you say that?!"
"No I won't."
""What?""
"As much as I want to be mad at both of you, I think Rodeo wouldn't want to see that."
The guards looked at each other and were glad that they were not in trouble.
"Although I'm pretty sure, your pay will be cut."
"Crap."
"Shit."
As the two guards looked down in shame, the adorable event near them continued, with Evan asking the little one.
"So Rodeo, how does it feel like being a kid?"
The little Rodeo looked at him and then said, "Do I know you? :3"
"...You're messing with me, right? It's me, Evan Williams. We fought Siren Head together and 'Ride Me to Hell'."
Little Rodeo just tilted his head, feeling confused, "Doesn't ring a bell :3"
Everyone all looked at him with a shocked and surprised look.
Evan, knowing what this means, said, "He's lost his memory."
""What?!""
Carlos then glares at the two guards, mad that his owner lost his memories.
"Dude we have to use the secret technique!" The guard shouted to his partner.
"No way."
"I'm gonna do it."
"Don't do it."
The SCP guard turns around and runs for the door
"Run away!!"
Growling in annoyance, the other Scp Guard follows him, feeling agitated.
"I can't believe this guy!"
Watching them run, Carlos wanted to chase them down but he felt something hugging his leg. He looked down to see it was a little Rodeo.
"Please don't :3" He said while making puppy eyes.
Carlos growls in annoyance, but accepts his small owner's words and lets go of his anger.
Evan then said to the two doctors, "Ok, we have a problem. One, Rodeo is now a kid. Two, our enemies might catch wind of this. And three, he has no memory of any of us. Four, the worst of them all is one of us has to babysit this thing!"
The two doctors looked at little Rodeo, who was patting Carlos's head and was receiving snuggles from him. Little Rodeo then looks at the two doctors and asks.
"Where am I exactly? :3" He asked in his five year old child's voice.
The two doctors looked at each other and then back at him.
"You're in a uhhh fun house." Collingwood said.
"Very smooth save, Collingwood." Evan shook his head in disappointment.
"What do you want me to do to tell him that he's in a place filled with monsters straight out of a nightmare?" Collingwood whispered to him.
"And he has no memory of past events as well so we have to take that into account as well." Amelia said before something popped out in her mind, "...wait a minute."
Amelia then approaches Little Rodeo, the little guys look at Amelia, which she asks.
"Do you remember your parents? Or your home? Or anything from before?"
"Nope, actually I don't remember a single thing. The only thing I remember is an explosion and then those two bringing me here :3"
Amelia's heart sank a bit. He had no memory of the event's from appearing in Site-17 to the G.O.C to the Site-19 Stand attack from. But the real reason her heart sank was because he had no memory of his family and previous life.
"Wait, check his hollow compartment." Evan said.
Amelia kneels down and opens his hollow stomach compartment and to her luck, she finds his phone. She opens the phone and shows him pictures of his family and of himself.
"Take a look, Rodeo. Don't you know any of them?"
"...No."
The four widened their eyes and felt bad for Rodeo. He really had no memory of his family or any events up until now.
"...Now what?" Evan asked.
Amelia stood up from the floor and was about to approach Evan, but then her lab coat was being pulled by the tiny hands of little Rodeo.
"Up! Up! :3"
Amelia sighs and lifts him up, carrying him in her arms and then approaches Evan, giving him the phone.
"For now, keep his phone with you. I don't think he will be needing it for now. And regarding your question of what we should do now, well we'll have to take care of him and report this to the site director."
"Yeah, let's head to the director's office first."

(Site Director Emma's Office - 8:20 AM)
The gang which includes Amelia, Collingwood, Carlos and Evan were in Emma's office, even Green was there and the two guards that ran. Emma and Green were looking at little Rodeo, who was sitting on a chair holding his feet with his hands, in shock and surprise. Carlos was holding the two guards who are responsible for Rodeo's current predicament with his six arms growling at them, while the two guards had anime tears streaming down their eyes not sure of what type of Fate is waiting for them.
"Heyooo :3"
Emma slowly turned around, not looking at the gang because she was blushing and covering her mouth, finding the way little Rodeo spoke was too cute to resist.
"Site Director?"
Called by Dr. Amelia, Emma quickly regained her composure and looked at them.
"Right, cough! So you two are responsible for this?" She asked the two guards.
"I kinda breathed in that red powder, which I sneezed, making everything explode and then we found him like this... Please don't fire us."
"I won't, but your pay will be cut. Now leave."
Carlos let go of them, which they left the office. Now the problem was Little Rodeo. How do they fix him?"
"What exactly did those vials consist of?" Amelia asked.
"According to the information I got, they contained elements that exist in nature like red contained fire, blue contained ice and yellow contained lightning."
'Why does it remind me of a show that I watched on rooster teeth?' Evan thought.
"So they were anomalous?"
"Yes, but we gave those powders no scp classification because they weren't a problem. But..." She looks at little Rodeo, desperately trying to keep her indifferent face so hard from the adorableness, "...I-I didn't expect those vials would cause this to happen."
Little Rodeo just tilted his head not understanding what's going on.
"What if this is permanent?" Evan asked.
"I hope not."
Little Rodeo looked at everyone in the room and then asked, "Why am I here? :3"
"You see Rodeo, we wish to help you get back to normal." Emma said in a gentle voice.
"Huh?"
"So I wanted to ask you if you wanted to get involved in some experiments, which can help you recover."
"........I refuse." Rodeo said in a serious way, which was incredibly cute actually.
Collingwood and Emma blushed because of how he said the serious line in a cute way, while Amelia kept her composure straight but found it cute nonetheless.
'SOOOO CUUUTTTEEE~~~!!' The two squealed inwardly
"Evan, please tell me this is really happening?" Green asked, still trying to process that Rodeo had been turned into a five year old child.
"Yep, this is happening."
Carlos nods in approval.
Emma was the first to break away from her thoughts and then asked Little Rodeo.
"You mean you don't want to do experiments?"
"Yes."
"I have a suggestion." Evan said, with all eyes on him now. He continues, "Why not let Amelia and Collingwood take care of him until he returns back to normal on his own."
"I have some paperwork to handle, so I can't." Amelia said
"Collingwood?"
"I also have work, Evan."
"Green?"
"I'm gonna be on guard duty in a while, on the deepest floor."
"Emma?"
"I can't. I'm busy with work as well."
"Well, I don't know how to handle a kid. I'm an only child in my family. And don't expect Carlos to take care of him, since he's a bird."
Carlos reluctantly nods but is ready to protect his owner in case he gets hurt.
"Well you can at least keep an eye on him. You can do that right?" Collingwood said.
Evan groans, "Fine. I'll keep an eye on him. Come on, Rodeo."
"No."
"Why not?"
"You don't look like a nice guy."
"I assure you, I'm friendly."
"You look like a bad guy!" Rodeo said, crossing his arms.
"I don't have time for this. Carlos, pick him up."
Carlos looked back and forth between Little Rodeo and Evan and just decided to do nothing, because he felt conflicted on who he should listen to.
"Fine... I'll do it myself."
Evan then tries to grab Child Rodeo, but he quickly jumps off the chair and runs out of the door.
"Run awa-"
*Pop!*
But then, Little Rodeo found himself back on the chair in Emma's office.
"How did I get back here?"
"I stopped time, obviously. Now please-"
Green cuts him off, "Why not let the kid decide on who he should go with?"
Evan sighs in defeat, knowing forcing child Rodeo would be a waste of time.
Emma then says to little Rodeo, "Alright Rodeo. Who do you want to go with?"
Little Rodeo looked at everyone before his gaze stopped at someone and then pointed to... Amelia.
"Me?!"
Little Rodeo cutely nods.
"I think you'll do a great job." Evan said.
"Evan, you can-"
"Adios."
[GIF]
Evan made a peace sign with his right hand and disappeared from the office by stopping time.
"Well, he left." Collingwood uttered.
Little Rodeo then approached Amelia, looking at her with sparkles in his eyes.
"Molly, please can you take care of him instead."
"He's already decided. And look at him, he likes you!"
"I am a scientist. Not a baby sitter."
Amelia looked at Little Rodeo and saw he really wanted to go with her.
She sighs, "Fine. Follow me, Rodeo."
"Yay! :3"
