The Madrigals isn't the only one with gifts... You see, there was the Garcia's. They were once kind souls who helped out villagers using their gifts just like the Madrigals. Until your great great grandmother, the new Matriarch at that present time, decided that 'helping' them should come to an end. She wanted the villagers to praise them, work for them, in return for a simple helping of their gifts which sometimes, they didn't even do. Once her daughter was born, the candle flame got weaker, and the ceremony? The child, or your great grandmother, wasn't given a gift, her electric, sapphire blue door vanished into nothingness. Even child that was born was taught how to torture the villagers just like your great great grandmother. And even child that was born from since then, the candle flame grows weaker and weaker and no gifts were distributed. You didn't know your great great grandmother, you didn't even know her name! All you know, is that your mother, The now Matriarch, was the exact copy of her. Few years later, you and your brother were born.
Unlike your tía's, tío's, mother and grandmother, the candle burned brighter for the first time since your great great grandmother days. This gave everyone 'hope' that you will receive a gift. Even though there was no way you can. When your door faded into nothingness like everyone else, they all became distant, they blamed you for not 'trying hard enough'. Later that night, a golden mist covered the floor knocking you out immediately. You don't remember much but you awoke with gifts! Not one, or two alot! Of course you didn't tell anyone about this. Ten years later, you're now 15. Your mother somehow heard about the Madrigals and decided to steal and destroy their Miracle. You wasted no time and traveled to the Encanto to protect them once it was time! Will you join your heartless abusive family, or will you stand strong and protect Encanto? And will you be distracted by your love for a certain Madrigal?

********************
'I let my hands go off the candle and looked up at Abuela's eyes that shone with pride. I turned around and faced the door, taking a deep breath. Now, my heart raced with only excitement. I lifted my hand and touched the cold, golden doorknob. For a few seconds, nothing happened, and I got scared. Then, the door lit up, bathing the house in a golden light, and I felt energy go up my hand and surge through my body.'
