"Where are they?" Adeline huffed as she walked with him. "Why are they so far away?"
Xavier continued to walk while holding her hand. "You wanted to go. Also, to answer your question, there are people here who bring children. Nobody wants them to end up in some other realm."
"Oh, we don't." Adeline said quickly. "But I personally don't want to walk that much."
Chubby little Penguin she saw, Xavier shook his head to himself. He turned around, pulled her close and just as she bumped into his chest he bent down and gathered her in his arms.
"Here," he started walking again, "hush now."
Hush it was. Adeline could not even talk anymore. She was stunned into silence. Her body warmed up at the touch.
