15. Catching Sid

Sid knew he had to take his mind off what he was thinking about, be it his past trauma or Carlos. What better way to deal with worries than through repressing them deep inside and heading back to work?. Sid rushed back through the citadel and up to the top floor to Lucifer's office. Sid peered through the window but found no one around. He then headed over the river to Lucifer's ornate palace straddling the lava coast. Sid then stood outside the front gate to find Lucifer reading in a chair on the porch.

"Sid, you came. I don't think you should be rushing so much in that get up. Use the gym maybe to blow off steam" Lucifer clicked his fingers, opening the gates and letting Sid in. he could see the sweat across Sid's white shirt, not a very fitting look at all.

"do you have something I can do?, anything?" Sid squirmed to the porch beside Lucifer.

"well, well, look who's gunning for employee of the millennium" Lucifer looked over.

"I'm serious" Sid furrowed his eyebrows.

"I don't really have anything for you to do right now" Lucifer spoke honestly.

"you're the Devil, man!!!. you always have something to do" Sid pleaded desperately.

"one, I prefer the term king of Hell. second, if you want to kiss my ass this badly, then I do have something" Lucifer waved his fingers.

"good, what is it?" Sid gave a small smile.

"there's some excavation work occurring on the Isle of the Damned just offshore. If you really want to, I need you to gather some artifacts from the site and place them in the archives at the Anubis library. You might want to hurry on over before looters take all the best stuff for themselves" Lucifer gave the order before Side rushed back off through the city to find a boat to the Isle of the Damned.
