Mirabel sighed and rolled her eyes. "You guys are something else,"

"Where are we going?" I ask being dragged by my friend Mirabel. "To Bruno's tower," I pulled my hand back and she stopped walking.

"Bruno's tower? Why?" I asked looking at the old dusty door in front of us.

"Because it will help me find out what's wrong with the miracle," She opened the door and left me behind. "Wait I was processing this!" I ran into the room and saw the huge waterfall of sand.

"Casita can you stop the sand?" Casita's tiles shook. "You can't help us in here?" Mirabel asked with one hand in the sand.

Casita sadly shook the tiles. "Ok well," Mirabel jumped into the waterfall screaming. "Mirabel?!" I started to worry and I heard the sand stop falling.

"It's fine just a fall right there," A purple fog stopped the sand and made a slide for me. "So you have powers?"

Mirabel said looking at the slide behind me. "And you didn't tell me or make me a slide?" She pointed at the fog disappearing.

"Well, I'm sorry I can't control it yet," I sass walking past her. "You seemed to control it to me," She mumbled walking it further into the room.

We saw a huge hand pointing upwards. 'Don't fucking tell me we have to climb that,' I heard Mirabel say. "Yes, we do," I looked up seeing all the stairs.

"How did you know what I was thinking?" I shrugged and looked at her. "I just heard your voice," She looked at the millions of stairs than at me.

"You should try to fly us up there," She said shaking me. "I told you I don't really know how to control it,"

She jumped on the big hand and helped me on there. "Try imaging that this tig was flouting," I closed my eyes and grabbed the finger for my life.

"You're doing it, Keep going!" She yelled as I open my eyes to see us raise up. We made it to the top within seconds.

"Okay now let's carefully get off," I heard a bird squawk and I start to lose focus. "JUMP NOW!" I yell jumping off with Mirabel.

I didn't jump far and didn't make it. "Y/N!" Mirabel grabbed my arm. "Come on pull yourself up on the count of three,"

I look at the huge fall and looked back up. "One," She grabs my other hand. "Two," I nod my head and she gets ready. "THREE," We manage to get me up and we just lay down.

"Damn you have a grip," She says poking my arm. "Well I am very strong," I get up and pretend to show off my muscles. "Ok, little miss muscles we need to find a way to get across,"

She looked around and was a rope stuck on the rocks. "Here we go," We started to tug on the rope. "Why is it stuck?" I say hoping I don't get rope burn from this. I felt my body tingle and I felt stronger.

I tugged on the rope once more and we fell to the ground. "Damn," Mirabel sat up and rubbed the back of her head. 'Where did the strength come from?'

Mirabel manages to make the rope swing. She nervously looks down and looks at the other side of the abyss. "I'll go first," I say grabbing the rope from her hand.

"Thanks," he said with a small smile. I took a deep breath and ran. I did a lot better than I did last time since I made it to the ledge. "Don't look down and get a running start!"

I throw the rope back and got ready to catch her just in case. She jumped and started spinning. "AHHHH!" She let go and managed to land safely.

"Woohoo!" The edge started to break underneath her. "Mirabel!" I pull her away from the edge and she just looks down. "Thanks, Y/N,"

She walks into the cave to see a bunch of stone photos of Bruno. "Eww," Mirabel said looking at the rats run into the nose of Bruno's statue.

"Oh look we have a friend," A toucan was on the ground walking with us. "Yeah, a friend that almost killed me,"

The toucan flew on my shoulder and it brushed his feathers. "Your a cute bird," A door opens and we all freeze as air below out. The toucan immediately flew out of the cave. "QUITTER!" We yell laughing after.

We both go into the room and I sniffed the air. "Damn that smell nasty," Mirabel laughed and nodded. We both heard the door squeaking and Mirabel turns around.

I panic and ran to the door but it had already closed. "Well then we're stuck in here," I say banging my head on the huge door. Mirabel turned me around and pointed at the glowing things in the sand.

"What are these?" I ask picking a piece up. She shrugged and picks up two pieces and put them together.

I felt the sand stat falling and the walls rumbling. I start to quickly put up the glowing pieces. "Y/N?" I grab her bag and put the pieces in there.

"Question later we got to go," I say going to the door and I use my magic to open the door. "It's not working,"

I start to panic and we both start to tug on the doorknob. We manage to open the door letting us and all the sand out.

We lay on the sand and catch our breath. "Damn that was- MOVE" Mirabel quickly pulls me away from the edge. "I think it's time to go,"

I say making a slide with my magic. We jump on and make our way out safely. "Well, that was-" "Where are you two coming from in such a hurry?"

Alma said scaring the shit out of me. "I'm sorry, we were-" Luisa came running up the stairs in tears. "My Gift! I'm losing my Gift!"
