Ellie's pov:

"Weak?" I raised my eyebrow. "Exploding ears?" Mirabel asked. "Yeah, but I'm alright now.. See?" Luisa smiled while lifting up few bags of corn stratch.

"Luisa, the bags!" One of the villagers yelled."On it!" Luisa yelped and made her way into the centre of the village "Wait.. Wait!" I yelped walked after her. "What do you mean?" Mirabel joined in.

"What do you think is changing the magic?" Mirabel asked. "I don't know.. But I heard the grown up ones,when Tio Bruno left.. He left because of some terrible vision about it" Luisa shrugged.

"Tio Bruno?" Mirabel asked. "What was in that vision?" I asked."No one knows.. They never found it.." Luisa said. "But you should start in Bruno's tower.. Find that vision" Luisa started walking away again.

"But where do we find the vision?" Mirabel yelped."What are we even looking for?" I yelled."When you find it,you know...But be careful! The place is off limits for a reason.

Me and Mirabel just changed excited smirks. "Let's go"

~~~

Me and Mirabel were heroicly approaching Bruno's door looking for anything, taht could hurt us. We opened them to see a hourglass shaped door with bunch of sand as some kind of curtain..?

"Nevermind.. It's not that exciting" I sighed and walked closer to the sand. Meanwhile Mirabel was still watching the place. Mirabel slowly approached me and stucked her hand into the waterfall of sand.

"Casita..? Can you--Turn off the sand?" Mirabel dusted off her hand and looked into the Bruno's door direction. Casita just moved few of it's tiles and Mirabel rolled her eyes.

"What do you mean you can't help in here?" Mirabel walked closer to the tiles. "That's weird.." I mumbled. And then a bunch of tiles started moving aggresively. "Don't worry,we'll be fine" Mirabel tried to comfort it.

I had no clue why she would comfort a house but it is what it is. "We have to do this" Mirabel fixed her bag and stuck out her hand. Signing me to hold it. So I gently held her hand.

"On three, okay? " Mirabel looked into my eyes. "Find the vision.. Save the family" Mirabel mumbled before we both jumped into the 'curtain'.

We fell into something that wasn't hard but it wasn't soft eithlier.It was sand.. My eyes and glasses were filled with sand and I had an itchy feeling all around my body. I took off my glasses and tried to properly clean my eyes and glasses.

I was quicker than Mirabel. "Haha" I teased her. "Don't go anywhere without me!" Mirabel quickly pit on her glasses and we both digged out of the sand.

We both got up and saw a big rock hand and sign on it. "Su futuro espera" I read it out loud."I guess that we have to climb the stairs up.." Mirabel said and looked at the distanced ceiling.

Without saying anything a cloud formed above my head and it started raining from it. "Uhm.. I can go alone if you-" Mirabel looked at me awkwardly. "Just let's go already" I sighed and made my way up the stairs.

~~~

Mirabel was happily climbing the stairs while singing 'The Family Madrigal' refrem while I was just sleepily walking behind her.

~~~

"There's a lot of stairs in la Casa Madrigal" Mirabel started panting a bit and also slowed down.

~~~

"Do you think there's other way to get that high cause we're magical?" Mirabel looked at me, now sweating and panting heavily.I just shrugged with a little smirk on my face.

"How many stairs got here? Bruno! Your room is the worst!~" Mirabel yelled from the top of her lungs.

~~~

When we finaly made it to the end of the stairs Mirabel slammed herself and the ground and looked at me. "How the hell are you okay after climbing that much?" She panted. "Well.. I was walking slowly and also I wasn't singing or talking the whole time" I chuckled and looked at the broken bridge.

"Mirabel.. We have a problem" I said and pointed at the huge gap between the two surfaces. "Oh come on" Mirabel groaned and stood up.

~~~

After a short disscusion we decided to grab a stake and hang it on the other side. "Is it stabile enough?" I asked. "I hope so" Mirabel shrugged. "Okay so at three.." I said and thightly wrapped my hands around her waist. A cloud started forming above my head again, but this time it wasn't raining.

"One.." Mirabel said. "Two! -" Before I could finish my sentence Mirabel already swinged us on the other side. Even through we almost got stuck in the middle. We still managed to make it on the other side.
