"Yeah I'm about done." Lunchbox said calmly stepping up off the cop. "Follow me and put your hands behind your back so it looks like I'm escorting you back out on the streets." Sid instructed, Lunchbox followed closely trying to look as convincing as possible. Everyone at the precinct looked nervous as they made their way to the elevator. "This is humiliating." Lunchbox muttered "Deal with it we're almost there." Sid said annoyed "At least you aren't dressed like the enemy." It seemed this floor was mostly just holding cells and interrogation rooms. They finally reached the elevator and they quickly pressed the "close door" button. Lunchbox was getting more shaken as the numbers counted down.
By the time they had reached the first floor Lunchbox had tensed up completely. They walked up to the front desk, "I'm signing out this man and I need his possessions back." Sid said calm and official. "alright, what's his name?" the lowly desk-worker asked "Sid" "Just Sid?" The desk-worker raised an eyebrow as if he had the right to as he started searching. He looked through boxes for what seemed to be hours, but were probably only a few minutes until he came back with a small cardboard box "Here it is, sir." Sid opened the box, taking back his gun, wallet, cigarettes and company pen.
They quickly left out the front door, Sid stole a police car and started driving. "So did you ever talk?" Lunchbox asked after a while "Not a word." Sid replied calmly "I figured they had found out considering you were in there too." "Nah, man, I forgot to take my meds and started killing people" Lunchbox stated matter-of-factly. The city was moving by faster than Sid was accustomed to, the sun was hidden by thick clouds which held thicker thunder. "We have a man to see" Sid stated after a long pause "we need to pick up some sandwiches."
