"Yeah..." Mirabel looked like she had an idea then slammed the door to Bruno's room open. Making Bruno yelp and look back in confusion.

"You could've just opened the door gently..." I muttered

"You wish you could have seen more, so see more! Have another vision!" She had a large but persistent smile on her face and I shook my head at her.

"Oh. No, no. See, I don't do visions anymore." Bruno stuttered

"But you could" Mirabel persisted

"Look, even if I wanted to, which I don't, you wrecked my vision cave which is a problem, 'cause I need a big open space" he tapped his fingers together nervously.

"We'll find one!" she gripped his arm and shook him, pleading with him.

"Where Mirabel?" I sighed and shook my head.

"Use my room," the three of us turned around in shock to see little Antonio standing there

"Antonio, what are you doing here?" I winced as I tried to take a step towards him.

"The rats told me everything. Don't eat those," he scolded his leopard who was about to eat one of the rats.

"Our family needs help, Tio Bruno..." Mirabel pleaded and I finally joined her case, the Madrigals ran this village, what would happen if the magic died?

"...and you need to get outta here" I pointed towards the rats who were currently cleaning their feet with his toothbrush.

"Meh," he shrugged before following us.

I sat on Antonio's leopard since I couldn't walk very well. His leopard was very friendly and enjoyed it when I ran my hands along the leopard's fur. We got to Antonio's room without being spotted and went up to his treehouse.

"Gracias, Antonio" I thanked him as Bruno and Mirabel helped me down. I sat on an edge of the circle of sand.

There was a rumbling noise and the birds inside the room were startled and started squawking.

"We might wanna hurry," I said as I looked at the birds, they seemed as anxious as me.

"You can't hurry the future" Bruno chuckled as he poured the sand.

"What if I show you something worse? If I see something that you don't like, you're gonna be all, 'Bruno makes bad things happen. Oh, he's creepy and his vision killed my goldfish'" he rolled his eyes and sighed.

"I don't think you make bad things happen. Sometimes family weirdos just get a bad rap" I shrugged and smiled softly at both of them. Earning a small heartfelt smile from them both.

Bruno sat down near me after he lit the candles and Antonio showed up behind him.

"For the nerves" he handed Bruno the small tiger Mirabel made for him.

"I can do this. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this" he repeated to himself and his eyes started glowing a bright green. The same green from my dream.

The wind whistled and it seemed like we were all holding our breaths

"You might wanna hang on" he shouted at me and I gripped onto his arm as he helped me up.

The sand was swirling around us and was green, images started popping up. I knew Mirabel was the main focus of this but I saw a quick image of me, my eyes a bright blue, Abuela in front of me.
