SCP-3008

∆2∆

I walked through the large Ikea store that seemed to not have many people.

I walked through the isles and looked at the stuff, I wasn't looking at couches right now. I was more focused on how large the store was and all the nice things it had.

I could easily see how I could get lost.

Suddenly the music in the store changed to a happy sort of tune, it was nice.

But I came to realize I was lost in the store.

"Just when I said I could get lost im fucken lost"

I groaned and looked around the store more quickly to try and find someone or the front so I'm not so lost.

"Hello?!"

I called out.

No one responded.

∆∆∆

It's been 3 hours since I got lost. My phone wasn't in my pocket anymore, and neither was my wallet.

I've been telling quite loudly for a while.

No one has responded.

No one is near.
I'm actually scared.

I worriedly looked around.

I soon started to see something kinda large in the distance.

It was a small fort or something.

"Who let people build this in a store?"

I walked up to it.

It was really sturdy to be build here.

Inside was a bed and a lamp, with 3 med kits and some bananas on the small table near the bed.

Suddenly the lights went out.

I yelled and looked out.

It was to dark to see anything.

I was scared so I moved the door shut and pushed the bed agenst it and curled up in the corner.

This fort was about as big as a small bedroom.

I heard footsteps outside.

I looked out a small crack that was between the large crate panels that where the walls.

I gasped at what I saw and clamped my hand over my mouth in fear.

Not even 20 feet away from where I was hiding was a very tall skinny creature, wearing the same clothes as the Ikea workers.

He was mumbling in a deep broken voice random words and sometimes short sentences like.

'please exit the building'

It was standing at an angle where I couldn't see much of its face.
But it's long skinny arms where attached to massive hands with large bloody claws.

Once I saw the blood I quietly backed up and away from that wall.

I was shaking.

Where am I?
What is that thing?
What the fuck is going on?

I was breathing as quietly as I could.
I was terrified.

Monsters arnt real.
Monsters arnt real.

I spent the whole night up in a ball on the bed sobbing as quietly as possible.

When the lights flicked back on I peaked outside again. It was gone.

When I felt safe I left.

I kept the bananas and med kits in a backpack I found near the fort.

I didn't know what was going on.

But I have to be prepared in case I come across one of those things again.

I started to walk while eating a banana.

I was a little bit more calm now.

I'm still scared, and I don't know what's going on. But I have to try and find someone, anyone.

∆∆∆

5 hours have passed.
I've been walking straight, taking turns but still going the same way.

I can't find an exit. And with how long I've been walking I'm assuming there may not actually be one.

I thought I saw one a few hours ago.

But the second I looked away to grab my bag it was gone.

Ive been searching for more bananas or something, because I have a feeling I'm not going to be out of here today.

I'm not going to stop looking for a person or an exit though.

I sat on a chair as my legs where sore.

Im lucky I work out or if be burning worse than I am now.

I suddenly smelt something really good.

I got up and walked towards the smell.

When I reached it I gasped slightly.

It was a small food counter with some cooked food like meatballs and burgers.

I hurriedly walked over to the food.

I looked around and grabbed a container so I could put some food in it.

If someone catches me I'll be more than happy to go to jail for stealing after what I saw last night.

I filled it to the max with meetbals and a burger and clipped it shut.

I looked at all the other food I wouldn't be able to carry.

I sighed.

I grabbed my backpack and carefully put the container in it. As well as some extra bananas and lemons I found.

I did happen to find a few water bottles too.

My backpack wouldn't be able to fit alot more.

I got up after eating the food I wasn't able to stalk up on, and kept walking.

I've been keeping track of time.
I hope the lights don't turn off soon.

It's been 6 hours since they first turned on.

What if im stuck here forever?

I hope not.

It's not like I'd me missed tho.

I don't have anyone really.
I bet people don't even know I'm missing.

I frownd at the thought of me being lonely.

I soon came across another small fort.

It was half way build and only had a flashlight near the side.

I took the flashlight, it was one of those wind up ones.

I remember my dad liked these because they lasted for as long as you took care of em.

I smiled at the memory of my dad.

The happy music of the store was starting to piss me off.

As I walked further I found a bunch of tall shelves that where half empty of supplies half trashed.

I walked down the fist one only to stop dead in my tracks and gag at what I saw.

"Holly shit."
