Atlas sighed. The others had done all the fun stuff. From what he could tell, based off what he had seen of the golem, some jackass kid bit off more than he could chew and tried building a robot. It's a shame. He probably could've joined the team. He'd certainly have more skill than that teenager. He stepped through the portal leading back to the office. That was rather quick. As he went upstairs to retrieve his coat before the sunlight returned, he was stopped by Markiel.
"Someone called asking for you"
This confused Atlas, as nobody knew he was here. This was concerning. Markiel continued, "I've put them on hold". Atlas grimaced. "I'll take the call", he said, taking the phone and tapping one of the buttons. "Hello?"
--------------------
This wasn't good. How did the kid track him down? Why now? Coworker bonding would have to wait. Atlas donned his coat and hat, grabbing alchemy supplies, food, and some minor essentials. He had nearly forgotten to return what he borrowed from the armory. Entering the lobby, Atlas turned to Markiel. "I'm going to have to take some time off. Family emergency.", he said, turning to walk out the door and into the uncertain future.
