In the vast infinite darkness of space and time there lies a entity, one of hatred and malice. He is known by many names, Harak, Khahrahk, Crimson Kahn, but you know him as The Scarlet King, silently waiting for the day of reckoning, to lay waste to all there is and leave nothing in his path. HE is... inevitable. END OF REPORT - SCP-001
The two personnel who were reading the file close it and walk to their vehicles from SCP-3008's security room in the rainy night
Dr. Trevor Bailey
Scarlet King, do you believe such a thing?
Researcher David Fyre:
We deal with weird things all the time why is this one so out of the ordinary?
Dr. Bailey:
In all my years here I've never heard anything remotely related to this "Scarlet King." Who even is he? Where is he?
Researcher David Fyre:
Hopefully that's a question we never need to know the answer too.
Dr. Bailey:
I have something better. Why don't you go and get me Dr. Dan and find out why he hasn't reported anything new about the disappearances at the Himalayans!
Just then the front doors of the building open up with someone running out, rugged, dirty, and terrified
Dr. Bailey:
What the hell?
MTF Agent:
It's O'Hara from Philanthropy!
Dr. Bailey:
Get him out of there!
They both run to the gate guarding the perimeter when another figure, one with a blank expressionless face with disproportionate limbs comes running out after him, murmuring and repeating a single phrase
SCP 3008-1:
The store is closed, please leave the building!
This stuns the two SCP Personnel when Dr Bailey composes himself
Dr Bailey:
Fire!
The MTF that's on site opens fire on the figure as Dr. Bailey scrambles to open the locked gate for the fleeing person to escape
With its long arms, it grabs O'Hara and starts attacking him until it is finally killed by the MTF
Dr. Bailey opens the gate and gets to O'Hara who's critically injured
Dr. Bailey:
We need a medic! O'Hara talk to me, what happened?
O'Hara's vision is blurry and starts going in and out of consciousness as he tries to get words out
O'Hara:
People...
O'Hara points his hand at the door
O'Hara:
Help them...
O'Hara succumbs to his injuries leaving Dr. Bailey to look at the door, wondering what happened in those 6 months he was missing
Meanwhile inside the store, a guy by the name of Hunter Gutierrez, is running, trying to find a way out
He comes across an intersection of aisles and runs right and stops when he see's an employee and catches his breath
