The two black suited men are quiet as they lead you back down into the garage.

----

The trip back home is uneventful, and they drop you off without a word.

<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Yare yare.. bet their watching my house. May'swell let them, I suppose.. no harm in it. Yet."

Carthrat walks back inside his house, and gives it a spot-scan..
[19:14] <Annerose> Aww, mouth not outpacing brain after all?
[19:14] <Candide> My brain caught up

Anastasia

Nothing seems to have been disturbed in your absence, and your security systems also report nothing out of the ordinary.

Carthrat

"Ah, well.."

Carthrat checks his mail, his answering machine, eats some food, plays some solitaire, and goes to bed, wondering if bad things are soon to happen.

Sleep...

The next few days go without incident, and things begin to settle down.  Just as you begin to settle into your new office at work,  you are disturbed by a telephone call.

Carthrat

Carthrat answers the phone.. "Tanewaki, here. Wassup?"

The line is a but fuzzy and distant, it's obviously a long distance call.

"Carthrat?" A familiar female voice asks. Rachel?

Carthrat

"The same. That you, Rachel? What's happening?" replies Carthrat, a tinge of worry on his voice.

Anastasia

"Yes, it's me," she says. "Carthrat...I recieved an..I'm not sure what it is, but it's for you."

Carthrat

"What's it look like?" replies Carthrat. "I can be there in a day to see it personally, if need be.."

"It's a smooth metal tube, with a tiny opening like a headphone jack on the top. It's maybe a foot long, and shiny." she says. "It came with a printed note that it was for you, it appeared in my backyard."

Carthrat

Carthrat racks his brain for any similar sort of item he's encountered through his travels.

Anastasia

Offhand, the only thing it sounds like is either an advanced power source or a holographic messaging cartridge. Both are above the general technology level of Earth.

Carthrat

"Right, I'll catch a plane today. I should be at your place tomorrow. Thanks for the call. Anything else?"

"No...Has there been any word from Diane?" she asks, hope clearly in her voice.
