SCP-173 Surprises SCP-3008 Shoppers

SCP 173 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as The Sculpture.
SCP 3008 is a Euclid Class anomaly also known as The Infinite Ikea.
Moved to Site-19 1993. Origin is as of yet unknown. It is constructed from concrete and rebar with traces of Krylon brand spray paint. SCP-173 is animate and extremely hostile. The object cannot move while within a direct line of sight. Line of sight must not be broken at any time with SCP173 . Personnel assigned to enter container are instructed to alert one another before blinking. Object is reported to attack by snapping the neck at the base of the skull, or by strangulation. In the event of an attack, personnel are to observe Class 4 hazardous object containment procedures.
SCP-3008 is a large retail unit previously owned by and branded as IKEA, a popular furniture retail chain. A person entering SCP3008 through the main entrance and then passing out of sight of the doors will find themselves translocated to SCP-3008-1.
SCP 3008 1 is a space resembling the inside of an IKEA furniture store, extending far beyond the limits of what could physically be contained within the dimensions of the retail unit.

I would love seeing SCP-173 getting it's concrete rebar butt kicked by Toph Beifong from Avatar The Last Airbender. Elephant in the room yes, she's technically blind, but she would be able to tell where SCP-173 is even from miles away like she did when Azula and her squad were hunting them though her Earth bending abilities known as "seismic sense". She could even sense every ant meters away from her. When it comes to her strength, she's strong enough to prevent a giant library from sinking long enough for her friends to escape. When it comes to her speed, she's capable of keeping up with characters that can dodge lightning. Given her ability to bend metal as well as Earth, SCP-173 would most likely have it's metal parts separated from it's concrete and both materials compressed into two balls before it's able to get within a meter of her.

[@forgottenetremembered]

It can keep its abilities even if it was mashed even if its slowly done so. Also, 173 would eventually exhaust Toph trying to stop it. It would need to be dissolved, albeit slowly

[@neonicon8500]

It was too much of a risk to bring the staff to 173 if you ask me. He had set up the perfect trap for it. I didn't even know it looking at itself could stop it. I would have gathered more survivors before bringing the staff if that was absolutely necessary to make sure someone had eyes on it at all times. Also, what is the staff going to do with 173? Throw it out of the store? The MC could follow them to the exit and get out! Of course, he'd probably want to go save the others and then the exit wouldn't be there anymore.

[@SuperJelly55]

For any pro SCP fans, I have a question. Where do the bodies go when people die in the Infinite IKEA? I had some theories of where they go. 1. They become the employee entities within the store, willingly to roam within the building to hunt another poor victim. 2. The survivors just give them a proper burial via large refrigerators or coffins made of wardrobes. 3. The IKEA Staff entities actually cook them and make parts of them for the almost infinite supply of meatballs.

[@allkay1480]

I feel like there is too many employees to be the first one and I’m sure someone would have figured out if the meatballs tasted like flesh. I assume they just do what you said on option 2, idk though.

7:26 aww man, what a missed opportunity. The protagonist should have been named Ike. Ike:"KIA!!!"

[@krrsantan6775]

For me the real horror is the Ikea furniture itself.
