When he reached her he carefully turned her over, saw that Jamie was not with her, and sensed, that this was the beginning of a nightmare for them all. He scooped her up into his arms carried her up to the terrace and laid her on the chaise lounge There. She was coming to and was mumbling, Jamie's name, he leaned down and heard Jamie gone, and then she went out again.
He grabbed the phone he saw on the table and punched in the station number asking for Cameron, all he said was, "Cam, get out to my house now, no one but you" he heard I'm on my way," and hung up the phone.
Next he picked up the two way radio, trying to sound calm he said, Marie, baby, are you there? It took a minute too long but finally she answered," I'm here daddy, hiding!" "Okay, stay there and daddy will come down to get you, okay honey?" "Ok daddy."
He heard a terrible agonizing groan from his wife then, and went to her, he fell to his knees and took her hand, and told her sweetheart, it's going to be alright, please believe me, it's going to be alright, I will get Jamie back, I promise!, do you believe me?" she nodded her head and then began to sob uncontrollably.
He told her then to stay put, he was going to the playhouse to get Marie, and he did that immediately, she opened the door right away as she had been peeking out of her little window and saw her daddy striding towards, she had seen much more also.
Starke picked her up and made big strides back towards the terrace, Marie asking is mommy okay? "She okay honey but she's very upset right now' let's you and I get her into the house and up to her bed, will you help me to do that?" "Sure daddy."
When he got Candee to their bedroom, he then took Marie to her own, asking her if she could stay in her room for awhile, and let mommy rest. She said she would do that, as he turned to leave her room, he heard his daughter say, "a bad man took Jamie, daddy!" he stopped dead in his tracks, turned, said, "what did you say?" she repeated what she had said. He walked back over to her pulling out the chair at her desk and sitting down, he asked, "how do you know that Marie?' "Because I saw him daddy" "can you tell daddy exactly what you saw.'
