Guardian AU

(No POV, Following Luisa)

Luisa burst out of casita and into the cold night air and started sprinting, she was glad they came tonight, work had been getting stressful and she needed some stress relief other than her punching bag, so as she approached the valley in the mountains, the one that led to the river, she slowed her breathing and looked around to find what had triggered her makeshift alarm, she quickly spotted the perpetrators, a small band of men with daggers and ragged clothes and hushed voices, she could barely make out what they were saying

"...the magic...gifts...family...steal..."

she had heard enough to know what their plan was, she cracked her knuckles and they turned to her, on of the bigger men growled at her

"go home little girl and we won't hurt you, as long as you don't tell anyone we're here"

"no, I think you guys should go home while i'm still giving you the chance"

they looked at her then turned to eachother and laughed

"aww, what are you gonna do if we don't? cry about it?"

"by the time i'm done you'll be the ones crying, you guys are just a big bunch of coward babies who find strength in numbers"

She knew how to get douchebags like them riled up, the truth was really the most effective insult for them.
they bristled at her insults, they never really had anyone talk back to them before and it confused them, but the leader got over it quick, pushing one of his men forward

"you go deal with her, make it quick"

the man stepped forward and had a small knife drawn, he lunged at Luisa but she ducked and grabbed his wrist, throwing him to the ground in a quick movement that left the man screaming in pain and unable to breathe for a minute, the other men loooked to their leader in fear who just sent them at Luisa with no plan of attack or anything, they were making this too easy for her. she grabbed on one of them and swung him into a tree with a loud snap, the next one she just punched in the face which left him prone on the ground, the other men backed up as they realized they had bitten off more than they could chew, all it took was one of them to start runnning and soon they were allscrambling to get out of there as fast as possible, away from the pudgy 10 year old that decimated their small army.

Luisa smiled in satisfaction but winced, looking down to see a small cut stretching across her forearm, how had that happened? it didn't matter, she would wrap it and have breakfast in the morning to fix it, it was no big deal.

when she got to casita she went to her room and finally felt tired enough to sleep, but not before cleaning and wrapping her arm.

When she woke up the first thing she heard was yelling, and she knew who it was by the sound of their voices

"-never let me do anything fun!"

"It's not fun if you're the only one laughing Camilo"

"Well it's fun for me, and Isabela. Why do you have to be such a wet blanket Mira"

"What are you two doing?"

They whipped their heads around at the sound of Luisa's voice, realizing she was awake

"Nice one Mira, you woke her up"

Mirabel ignored him and huffed

"Camilo was trying to pull a 'prank' where he stole your favourite plushie"

Luisa looked at the large unicorn stuffie being held between the two of them and promptly walked over and pulled it out of their hands

"Get out of my room you two, and stop trying to take my stuff"
