insane. certifiably Only time will tell how and if Midna can protect her child. Glad you liked it! Now how far is Midna... Actually I googled around a bit and found out that the unpleasant side-effects take place in the second month. So now she should be around the third month I think. But Midna is a Twili, so I think there must be some differences. So she is half a month farer (is that even a word) than she should be if she were human.

Syzeria I would gladly take on your offer! I think after signing in there is a section called beta reader, perhaps there is more? You are probably right that Link should show some more emotion, but I don´t think he would be emo with his friends. Alone is another thing.

LoveandZeLink Perhaps I don´t need a beta-reader for my story to be adequate, but I would like someone with more experience to look over it. It won´t do any harm. Link probably feels very depressed, but I don´t think he´s that kind of a person that would let those around him feel bad too. Therefore he will be depressed... when he is alone. The people of Ordon is all he has left right now and I don´t think he doesn´t know that. So he appreciates them.

Ranyo Malight Thanks! About the beta position I already got an offer from Syzeria, so do you think there can be two beta-readers for one story?

As for KisshuGirl101, Kharmachaos and Urshy thanks for the reviews!

Here we go! I proudly present you the next chapter of Child of the Golden Twilight. Enjoy!

Chapter 6

Okay, my mind was made up. I would never ever let them kill my baby. Yeah, right. Over my dead body! The duties I had being the princess were nothing compared to those of being a mother. Added to that I still felt guilty of leaving Link behind and my child was his child to. I wouldn't allow his legacy to be killed! It was the least thing I could do to make up for all the pain I caused him. I would do everything in my power to save his -not forgetting my- child from death, even if it meant my own death. It was now two against one: Midna and Mother-Midna against the Princess.

But while my resolve was firm my plan to save my baby was quite...gappy. How to save a child -my child- that will always differ from Twili when the only way to save it is for the Twili to believe it is one of their own. I had thought of many possibilities to save my child. The possibilities ranged from always having it right in front of me to hiding it. But all of my plans wouldn't be a adequate way of living.
When I put it under supervision it would feel excluded and it wouldn't have any freedom. In the beginning it might work but then there was the risk that someone could manage someday somehow to get through the protection and kill my child or abduct it or torture it or do things to it as he pleases.
Always hiding and being on the run? No I wouldn't expect my child to put up with that. My baby would become paranoid! I wanted my baby to grow up in a protected and peaceful environment.

Anything I thought of was a dead-end. No matter how you look at it my baby was destined to live in misfortune or die. But I wasn't that kind of person that would give up so easily. I learned that from Link. Not giving up always ended with a solution. Right now I was searching for a way in the library. I couldn't remember the last time I dwelled between dusty book towers. I wasn't a bookworm, but somehow right now I was evolving or should I say de-evolve into one. Free-time I usually spend with irritating some Twili or sneaking out of the palace, was spend with reading and reading and reading. And my research hadn't even panned out.

"This is hopeless!" I shouted groaning and stood up. After a short dizzy-spell I made my way to the window to let some fresh air in. There was no better way to clear one's head than a handful of fresh unspoiled air. Sighing I sucked in my secret antidote for unmotivation, orderless thoughts and headaches.

"Princess! This is one for the books! The Princess herself in my humble library." The librarian exclaimed. She was a -even in Twili standards- tall slender woman. Her hair was slightly shorter than the average hair of female Twili as we preferred long hair, that underlined our natual tall, wavy bodies. Her hair colour was the common orange, but her eyes were unusually dark, a black abyss. I think she was called Nuvra.

"Now, Nuvra, right? If you hadn't been absent, I'm sure you would have seen me in your library much more often." I stepped away from the window and put a hand on one of the book-towers. "As you can see, I was working hard while you were away."

"My greatest apologies, my princess!" She said as she fell to her knees. "If I had known, I would have been here ages ago. If there's anything I can do for you, I will do my very best."

"That's great to hear. But I think this is something I have to do on my own."

Nuvra bowed her head. "Why's that, Princess? I'm here to serve."

"This is a... private matter. I'd rather not talk about it. I cannot trust anyone." I whispered the last part and walked to Nuvra.

"You can't trust anyone?"

Damn. She heard that? "I didn't say anything like that." I smiled.

"No I heard it! It's really sad you won't trust me. I never did anything that might have harmed you princess. I admire you. I want to help you. You needn't tell me the details, but perhaps you can tell me some of it. I'm confident I can help. " She stated as she stood up and looked pleadingly into my eyes. "Please?"

"No."

"Please, Princess. Look at theses towers. You read them all, right?"

I nodded.

"And there was nothing in there, that could help you situation, right?"

Again, I nodded.

"Then you should accept my help. You didn't come far with your method. Alone you can't accomplish anything. Teamwork is what makes the world go 'round. When you don't know where to look you won't find what you desire. This library is huge and without a guide like me you are lost between the book-shelves." Nuvra said with so much enthusiasm that I was sure I saw her coal-black eyes catch fire.

"You know, I never got lost in the library. The lay-out is pretty easy."

"That was a metaphor! Anyway, you should accept my proposal!" She said with a thumbs-up-pose.

Somehow Nuvra began to scare me. In mere seconds she transformed from a obedient servant to a child with verbal diharroea. But somehow I came to like her. She wasn't uptight like the rest of the castle and I could find myself beginning to trust her.

"Okay. Before your mouth runs off, I'll tell you a little of my problem. But you must swear that you will never tell a soul of this."

She saluted "Yes, Princess!"

"Noone will ever know of this through you."

"Of course."

Her serious face made me want to trust her, but I had to make hundred percent sure. "Swear an oath: I will never tell anyone the secret of the princess. Not through written word, lips reading, a drawing and even pantomime. No one will ever know about this, because of me. I swear on my ancestors, my parents, the Sols and my life."

"I will never tell anyone the secret of the princess. Not through written word, lips reading, a drawing and pantomime. No one will ever know about this, because of me. I swear on my ancestors, my parents, the Sols and my life."

"Good, then come here." When she was near me I began to weave a soundproof barrier. "Walls have ears."

"And doors have eyes." Nuvra covered her face with her hair "We have to move like the wind and be quiet as a shadow, be unnoticed as a shadow. Good plan, my princess."

Okay, she might have a mental disorder. Maybe because she was too long alone with the books? Now that was another reason to tell her part of it. I didn't want to end like her.

"Okay. You see there is ... someone I need to help. This certain someone ... has something that the Council won't tolerate. So if they find out about it they will most likely kill this someone's something."

"This one´s easy. The mysterious person only needs to hide thissome thing that makes this person unpopular with the Council."

"No, it's not that easy. The person I mentioned can't hide this... Hiding wouldn't please it." I explained, although I wouldn't know the last part. My baby wasn't born, yet and I couldn't judge his/her dislikes and likes.

"It's even more precious to the person than the person's life?"

"Yes. Actually this something is a someone."

"I see... We are in a predicament. You don't want this person to be on the run... because the person will be most likely be pursued by other persons, gah this whole person stuff is confusing me, by the Twili. But getting rid of the other someone isn't an option either... What a shame Twili can't live in the Light World, otherwise you you send this person there. No Council and Twili hunting this person, problem solved! But because of the damn goddesses that won't be happening!" Nuvra cursed.

"The Light World..." I facepalmed. Of course! "The Light World! Nuvra, you are a genius!"

My face brightend up. My baby could grow up with its daddy! And we could be family. I could be with Link until the end of my... . My smile faded. The reason I wasn't with Link in the first place was that I destroyed the mirror.

"No that won't work either. I destroyed the mirror to prevent further interactions with the Light World to prevent another coup d'etat."

"You did? Perhaps there is a way to restore the mirror or open another path to the Light World... But that wouldn't solve the not-being-able-to-stand-the-light-problem, Princess. This seems like a lost case, but we can't give up. Perhaps we find a way to solve that problem, too!"

I didn't tell her that that problem didn't need to be solved. My baby would be a half light-Hyrulian and a half-Twili, it would be able to exist in both realm, just like her mum and dad.


So even after a long time I only managed to write such a short chapter... You know the usual causes: school, test, looooooong school-days, homework, ?did I mention lack of motivation after school?, presentations, you name it...

There wasn´t a Link PoV in this Chapter because I plan a longer one in the next.

Yeah... anyway thanks for reading...

Anyone interested in how often the word person appeared? I think I used that word waay too often... It was 16 times... With one person in a review reply.

See you guys later!
