Warning: This chapter will have mention of blood, physical harm, and a description of a panic attack. I will put a 👌 symbol to show you when to stop.

You have been warned.






















  THE UNKNOWN BEING that Camilo, Luisa, and Dolores had caught together was now tied in the middle of the house while the family was surrounding them muttering to each other on what to do with them. "Well done you three, now let's figure out who this is" Mirabel stated while walking up to the hooded figure in the chair. As she stepped closer she started to hear noises coming from the said being, they were whimpering But why? Shouldn't she be afraid of them?

    Mirabel got closer to the being and slowly brought her hand towards their hood, she grasped the hood in between her fingers and slowly started to lift it up-













"WAIT"!

A voice shouted causing most of the Madrigals to flinch and turn to the person who had yelled, that person being: Bruno. The sleep deprived man slid down the stairs thanks to casita and rushed over the thief tied in the chair. He started to gently untie them causing his family members to shout in disagreement.
   The shouting made the now untied hooded figure tense up causing Bruno to turn around with a frown on his face, the bright green of his gift swirling in his eyes. His features made the family quiet down as they all took in his appearance.

    "Bruno what are you doing? Do you not want to help the community? Our family? Our home"? Abuela started to ramble and yell at Bruno making the rest of the family members do nothing but watch. "Enough"! Mirabel yelled cutting off Abuela. She then took a deep breath and looked at Bruno before speaking, "I'm sure Bruno has a reason as to why he's doing this, you had a vision right Bruno"? Mirabel asked.

Bruno nodded his head before he started to explain himself, "I stopped you because this "thief" is just a kid". He stated before gently removing the hood off the child's face, after it was off everyone was silent and slowly processing what they were seeing.

(The warning starts here)




The kid could be no younger than 8-10, they had dirt on their face and their hair was matted up with most of it. Their e/c eyes looked glossy and their clothes were dirty as well, it had a stain of red on it. The red wasn't just a stain it was blood, the Madrigals had gasped at the child's apprentice. Mirabel tried to get closer to them but the child scooted backwards in the chair that they were in whilst covering up their wound.

A look of sorrow washed over Mirabel's face as she turned to her mom and nodded her head to the kitchen, making Julieta move quickly. "Hey kid, it's okay.. we just want to help you" Bruno said as he held his hand out towards the kid, the child looked at him and then at everyone else in the room. Their breathing started to quicken, there was to many people in the room.
The child felt their head spin as they closed their eyes wishing to go back to what used to be home, the feeling of so many eyes on them made the kid's eyes fill with tears and fall on their cheeks. They wanted to go back home, that's all they wanted. Away from their eyes and judging faces, the kid's breathing got worse they couldn't bare this feeling anymore, they wanted it to stop.











👌 (your good now)







A hand grasped the child's shoulder, making them freeze and their eyes open to see dark brown ones staring right back at them. The e/c child moved their panicked eyes to the person's mouth, they-no he was saying something but what? They tried to read his lips. "Bre-" The child didn't understand, it was too muffled so they tried again. "Breath".

The child mimicked the first action they were told and soon started to feel their heart beat slow. "That's it, there you go", the man that was comforting the child was Bruno. He stood there along with his sister Julieta who was holding a glass of water and a arepa. The child's focus drifted back to Bruno once they could hear properly again. "Okay little one you need to eat and drink some water so you can talk to us okay"? Bruno stated.

The child took a moment before nodding and revived the arepa and water in their small hands. They took a bite out of it and immediately felt the pain in their abdomen drift away, they then took a large gulp of water and enjoyed the cool feeling running in their body. "Okay, start from the very beginning pequeño". Bruno said keeping his hand on the child's shoulder to keep them grounded.

  
  Everyone was staring at them in anticipation waiting to hear the child speak, but the child looked down at their feet. How could they speak in front of so many people? It seemed impossible. Bruno processed the child's body language and got got back up to his full height. "I think the kid wants to be alone for this". he stated. Everyone nodded and walked into the dinning room.









  Bruno turned back around to face the kid and gave them a small reassuring smile, "Take your time pequeño, no one's rushing you". The e/c child let his words sink in and took a deep breath as they opened their mouth to speak.
