Michael looked at Bo and John in horror.
"What? Oh my God, NO!"
Bo immediately got on the phone and began giving orders to the police force. "I want you to get on this NOW! Don't stop until you find this scum!"
Just then, Antonio entered the station. "You'd better turn on the radio. Haver's up to something."
Bo hurriedly turned on the radio, listening intently.
"...Dr Haver is a respected member of this community as well as an excellent professor..."
Michael jumped out of his chair. "Wait! That's Marcie!" Her sweet voice filled him with pain. The only real comfort was knowing that she was alive. He prayed that Haver didn't do anything to hurt her.
"...Dr. Haver has been accused of several killings on the Llanview University campus. These accusations are false. Dr. Haver had no contacts with any of the victims and therefore cannot be held responsible."
Michael could sense a quivering in Marcie's voice and his heart ached. "He's holding her hostage at the station, I know it! There's no way she'd go on the air with that stuff unless he was forcing her to."
"... John McBain is the person responsible for these killings. He is a murder and should be treated as a highly dangerous criminal."
Her voice broke as she began to read the final segment of what Haver had written.
"... Lastly I'd like to give this message to Michael McBain. I-I don't want to see you anymore, so don't bother trying to contact me. Your brother John has treated Professor unfairly and I no longer want to be a part of your life. Goodbye, Michael..."
Michael's eyes filled with tears, as Bo laid a hand on his shoulder. "Michael, I swear we'll take care of this. We won't let anything happen to her."
John gave his brother a hug as they ran out the door, hoping they weren't too late to make it to the University. Marcie's life depended on it.
