This is the first of my revised chapters; for those of you who don't know, I'm re-writing everything. Then we'll see how everything goes.

So, if you are a first-time reader, I suggest you wait to read the rest until I have revised all my chapters. Also, I do not own The game Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

The doctors ran frantically throughout the stuffy room, frenzied and flustered. There was one distinguished as head medic by his dark clothing and strange brooding calmness amidst the chaos, studying a small, whimpering infant.

The tiny, sputtering bundle lying on a stone table covered in blankets; she was the cause of the panic. She writhed and coughed, probably wishing she could wail, but was too weak to do so. Her breaths were labored, and her skin, beneath the thin sheets, was pale and searing hot. Her large eyes were screwed tight, and her hands were fisted into tiny, fleshy balls. She was slipping in and out of consciousness, though in neither did her features relax, as though the sickness ailed her in her dreams as well. She was fading away, her light naps lasting longer and longer. The maids, placed around the table by their mistress, would attempt to keep her awake by placing cold, wet rags on the babe's face and arms. She still fell into sleep, eventually, though.

The medic took his eyes from her to glance off at the Lady of the castle.

The Lady's deep brown eyes were wide with fright, but the lids would droop out of exhaustion, and if one hadn't known the Lady as well as he did, they would have assumed her eyes merely expressed mild surprise. But she was biting down hard on her knuckles, hunched over and shuffling her feet on the ground listlessly. Her long, dark hair was disheveled, falling over her scrunched shoulders and pooling at the floor in a silky puddle by her feet.

His Lady would never have let herself slouch in the presence of her servants.

She wouldn't ever want them to see her gnawing on her fingers.

And she never, ever let her hair touch the ground. Not even when she was alone.

He removed his stare from the distraught woman, only to place it back on her daughter. The only heir to his lord. If she were to die, it would be the first time in four centuries since the beginning of the royal family. It would be a disaster, as his lady was deeply attached to her barely three month old, and would most likely be unwilling to bear another child to his lord. At least, not until it would be too late. The Lord may choose another woman, but that had never truly happened before in the history of the castle, and it went against a few written and many unwritten laws. The royal House of the Moon would be forever shamed, or left to nothing when the ruling couple passed on.

Not on his watch.

The head medic turned swiftly, to find that a good deal of his apprentices and peers were watching him warily. His second in command, who happened to be a woman around his age, was among them. It was much quieter in the dim room now, save for the pitiful whimpers of a young princess. The doctor's dark co-medic looked him in the eye.

"You are going to try."

It wasn't an order, or a question. It was more a plea than anything, silently asking him to not go through with what he had already decided he'd do. His eyes hardened slightly, and his jaw clenched. Almost all eyes were on him now, and he wasn't very appreciative of it, though, attention is practically in the job description when you're the leader of a medical team. Even the lady had paused in the brutal assault against her bruised hands to stare in his general direction.

"Yes."

No one argued as he gently picked up the dying child, and carried her smoothly through a pair of massive wooden doors. He continued only a few meters before turning to a much smaller door, pausing only to shift the infant before opening it to reveal a narrow passageway. The only protests the small crowd could present to him were the pleading of their eyes. But he wasn't looking back at them.

He could only stare forward as he ascended the cold, stone stairs, up to the room where he would save a life worth more than he could ever imagine.

Now I am off to redo my next chapter. Reviews are appreciated. Thank you very much.
