Default $30+$3, KK, Lvl 1, Is folding gross?

This is the second or third hand of the tourney. No read on Villain. Raising the flop seemed standard, but when I get 3-bet it's either push or fold. Is a fold terrible? Should I be flat-calling the donk bet, or raising less if I intend to fold to a 3-bet?

PokerStars $30+$3 No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP2 (t1500)
MP3 (t1520)
CO (t1680)
Button (t1360)
SB (t1440)
BB (t1500)
Hero (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t80</font>, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, SB calls t70, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t180) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t100</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t1360</font>, Hero ???

I'm calling this every time. 88 or 99 is a possibility, but you can't be afraid of it here. Expect to see stuff like Ah8h, TT, A9, JT, QhJh.

A9, K9, Q9, J9, T9, A8, A8hh, JTo or JTs, QQ, JJ, TT, 76o or 76s, Maybe even random crap like 77 or A3 or that. All part of his range here.

What we are worried about is 33, 88, 99, 89. He's doing this with a lot more hands we beat than hands that beat us.
