They ended up between the walls of the house as they looked around. But then they found one of the rats with one of the pieces of the vision, running for the darkness. When they could only see the glowing green piece, it was lifted in the air and when the thunder sounded, they could see Bruno for a bit while holding the piece, making them gasp, but he soon disappeared.

"He's here," Y/N gasped silently in shock before taking off after him.

Mirabel soon followed her, trying to catch up to the green-hooded figure.

"Hey!" they called.

The chase continued throughout the walls, even when Camilo was trying to calm Pepa down.

"It’s okay, mami. Deep breath in, deep breath out," Camilo instructed gently.

But when Mirabel and Y/N hit the wall, it made Pepa lurch forward, hitting Camilo with lightning and into the corner of a nightstand, to which he exclaimed between shifts.

The two women continued after Bruno.

"Stop!" Mirabel said.

"Stop! Please!" Y/N pleaded.

They then ended up at a gap in the floor, which Bruno easily made it over. Y/N did as well, but when Mirabel landed, the floor by the gap broke under her and she almost fell through before grabbing a piece of wood.

"Mirabel!" Y/N shouted then reached down, saying, "Hold on. I gotcha."

Mirabel managed to grab her hand, but when Y/N tried to lift her up, the floor under her broke, sending her down until she grabbed the bit of wood Mirabel previously grabbed.

Mirabel gasped, exclaiming, "No! No!"

"Help! Help!" Y/N shouted.

"Casita! Casita!" Mirabel called.

Y/N then started losing her grip, making the two women panic.

"Help us! Help us!" Y/N hollered.

But just as Y/N's grasp failed, someone grabbed her hand. She looked up to be met by her husband's loving eyes.

"You’re very sweaty," he commented, making her giggle slightly.

But then Bruno fell and Mirabel was holding them both up. He looked back up at his wife and niece then when a rat came into view on his shoulder, Y/N squealed, making her let go of Bruno and he screamed into the fog.

"Oh, no!" Mirabel panicked.

"Mi amor!" Y/N shouted.

Then he popped up and swiped away all the fog to reveal the bottom was a lot closer than they realized.

"Hmm," Bruno hummed.

"Oh you got to be kidding me," Y/N commented.

They all helped each other get back up and when they did, Bruno faced the women, who were speechless for different reasons.

"Bye," he told them, walking away.

"What?" Y/N questioned.

"No. Hold on! Wait! Wait!" Mirabel said as they followed him.

Then Mirabel hit her head on one of the beams.

"Ow," she exclaimed, recovered, then asked, "Why did you take the vision?"

"Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock. Knock on wood," Bruno mumbled while knocking on the wood before inhaling sharply.

"What does it mean?" Mirabel continued then went on, "Is it why you came back or…"

Bruno just exhaled deeply.

"Tío Bruno?" Mirabel called.

"Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock. Knock on wood," Bruno kept mumbling while knocking on more wood.

"Oh I'll knock on wood alright," Y/N remarked then knocked hard a few times on Bruno's head.

"Ow!" he exclaimed, rubbing his head.

"You're lucky that's all I'm giving you because you deserve WAY more than that," she stated sternly then said, her voice softening, "But...I can't stay mad at you."

He smiled lightly before she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, him wrapping his arms around her waist and returning it. They soon parted and hugged.

"I've missed you, Bruno," Y/N whispered to him.

"I've missed you too, Y/N," Bruno returned.

Mirabel then cleared her throat, making the couple part and look at her.

"As much as I love seeing a happy reunion, we have a matter to attend to," Mirabel reminded.

"Oh right," Y/N nodded.

"You were never supposed to see that vision. No one was," Bruno said, walking away again, but this time while holding Y/N's hand.

"But…" Mirabel began but salt was thrown in her face, making her spit.

"A little salt," Bruno said then added, throwing sugar in her face, "Sugar."

This made Mirabel spit more.

"When did you become so superstitious?" Y/N asked.

"Since that vision," Bruno answered.

Then he muttered in Spanish as he helped his wife over the unsteady boards.

"Wait," Mirabel called.

Then Y/N and Mirabel noticed some more cracks in the wall, but they were patched up.

"Have you been in here patching the cracks?" Y/N asked.

"Oh, that? No, no, no. I’m too scared to go near those things. All the patching’s done by Hernando," Bruno answered.

"Oh Hernando," Y/N smiled to herself.

"Who is Hernando?" Mirabel asked.

"I’m Hernando and I’m scared of nothing!" Bruno said in deep voice with his hood on, Y/N tried to contain her laughter, then he removed his hood and replied normally with a chuckle, "It’s actually me. I used to say my real gift was 'acting'."

Y/N just looked at husband lovingly as he put a pail over his head.

"I’m Jorge. I make the spackle," Bruno said, altering his voice and holding up one of his tools.

"How long have you been back here?" Mirabel asked.
