There was nothing else to do but call upon the Creator,
praying, begging, pleading, bargaining—anything to make
him protect Xavier. I couldn’t have him ripped away from
me like that. I could survive emotional turmoil; I could
survive the most intense physical torture. I could survive
Armageddon and holy fire raining down upon the earth, but I
could not survive without him.
