+There would be two messages on Caspians machine when he finally got around to checking them.  One had obviously been placed late at night while Geller was on his way home and the second would have been made just after dawn on Wednesday.  Listening to them one right after the other it would be easy to put the time frame together and see that something had occured within those hours that changed all their plans.+

 

Message 1:+The voice that spoke was tired but upbeat.  Geller sounded slightly distracted as he drove but nonetheless contented and relaxed.  In the background was the sound of wind as he drove with the Caddy's top down and the low sound of music on the radio.+

 

"Hey Caspian, it's Geller.  I was thinking that for Thanksgiving we could just do one big family dinner over here at my place.  I'm sure Jenna won't mind the opportunity to skip out on cooking herself.  Would you mind getting the other tigers together and bringing them over on Thursday around noon?  Can't wait to see you guys.  Take care man."

 

Message 2: +Geller's voice was low and almost deadpan, the words spoken seeming to come out in almost robotic speech.  It was a short message and in the background were the sounds of a bustling parking lot and the occasional noise of plane engines in the distance.+

 

"Caspian, change of plans.  I think you should come over with the others as soon as possible.  I have something I need to tell you."

Caspian sat outside the tiger house, listening to the messages on his phone. The second one did not surprise him. He sighed and looked around in the quiet dark, then thumbed over one of the speed-dial buttons on his phone to call Geller back. 

He sat with his elbows against his knees, head down. He wasn't really surprised to hear it click over to voicemail. He figured they might end up playing some phone tag.

"Hey, Geller, it's Cas." He paused, rubbing his forehead. "I got a pretty good feelin' I know what this is about. I'm hopin' mebbe you got more answers than I do right now. I'll round up the kids an' bring 'em over as soon as I can. I'll call you back once I have everyone together. You know how herdin' cats goes." 

He sighed and hung up, then just hung his head, pushing his fingers through his hair. The house felt empty, even if he was aware of the other tigers in it and nearby.
