A sapient fire truck determined to extinguish every fire in the world due to his tragic revenge origin story. But not in the way that you think.

I'm doing an mainlist SCP article for series 5. This SCP is a fire truck: It's sapient, it can produce its own supply of gas and water, it can speak in a masculine tone, and it can teleport and heal itself overtime. The SCP's goal is to "kill every fire in the world", though this statement is inaccurate as it mistakes the entire state of New York for the world.
The SCP can sense fires in its vicinity, when it does it drives to the source of the flame and sprays excessive amounts of water into it until It's extinguished. Then it drives off to find another fire. Since it's currently uncontainable, the containment procedures are to guide the fire truck away from urban areas and lure it into safe zones but lighting off controlled fires. Keeping it in remote areas.
The Foundation was first notified of SCP when it drove through a wall during an the filming of a competitive kitchen show based in New York. Foundation applied amnestics but failed to capture it. The Foundation tried multiple attempts to capture it, but it allows teleported before it can be properly restrained. The project head decided to shift containment strategies by deceiving the SCP rather than confronting outright. This plan was approved and a new operation was made.
They set off a small controlled fire in a foundation-controlled parking lot. The fire truck drove down there and gave a monologue before maneuver its hose to the flame. Before it can put it out, an agent appeared in front of its site and used a fire extinguisher to put it out the fire instead. The agent and fire truck talked for a bit. The agent portrayed himself as a member of a group of individual fighting back against the reign of the flames and asked for the SCP assistance to join this organisation. The SCP bought the act. It's hasn't agree to give full cooperation but it has so far not rejected the idea.
The agent asked the SCP, citing security reasons for his "group". The fire truck accepts. It states that that reason it can produce its own gas and water was a result of "birth defect" he had when was first manufactured. It also states before going on it's revenge mission, it had a family consisting of adult humans. They would go on long walks, go on sight-seeing tours and occasionally gets drinks of water. One night when they were cooking burgers and macaroni a flame called Mr. Burns came in and murdered its entire family, then ran away. This was what led the fire truck to become a vigilante. It teleports away, but nor before giving away the location of where the event took place. Agents were sent down to investigate a fire station located in New York. After much interviews and searching through the records they found that the incident the SCP never happened. They did fine that a minor fire did occur in the kitchen, but it was put out with no lasting damage to property or persons. Notably , the day after the station's fire truck was reported missing. It was reported as theft, but neither the suspect nor the vehicle was ever found.
I'm making a joke on those cliched "avenger of the night" stories, on where crime has inflicted tragedy on the protagonist, and the protagonist tries to put the law in their own hands. (I.E. Batman, The Punisher). I also made the fire truck's personality to showcase this concept. Making it sound funny when it believes its actually serious. Even though it went on its crusade based on a misunderstanding.
