After what felt like an eternity, Mirabel exited Bruno's room with your unconscious body. Panting, she was making her way toward the nursery room when she ran into Abuela.

Abuela grunted and dusted the sand particles off her dress. "Where are you coming from in such a hurry?"

Then she noticed Mirabel carrying your body. "What happened to (Y/N)?"

"I'm sorry, I was..." Mirabel apologized, out of breath.

"What is in your hair?" Abuela asked, inspecting Mirabel's hair and clothing.

She hesitated to answer and dusted the sand out of her hair when she heard Luisa's voice from nearby.

"My gift!" Luisa sobbed, meeting the three of you near the top of the stairs just around the corner.

You groaned and stirred, slowly lifting your head.

"I'm losing my gift!" Luisa cried.

"What?" Abuela said with a disturbed look on her face as she looked at Luisa.

You squinted your eyes, looking at Luisa as you adjusted to the brightness.

"Mirabel, (Y/N), and I were having this little talk about me carrying too much. So, I tried not to carry so much, but I realized it was putting me behind." Luisa explained.

"And I knew I was gonna let everyone down. And I felt really bad, so I was grabbing all the donkeys, but then when I went to throw the donkeys in the barn, they were... heavy!" She sobbed, running to her room and slamming the door.

You, Mirabel, and Abuela watched as she stormed off into her room. Coughing up a bit of sand, you were barely gaining your consciousness back, so you were still woozy.

"What did you two do? What did you say to her?" Abuela questioned in an accusing tone. You both turned to face Abuela with fear in your eyes.

"Nothing." You both said.

"We... I don't..." Mirabel tried to find the exact words to say.

"Mirabel..." Abuela said, but then sighed when she heard the church bells ring and she checked the time on her pocket watch.

"I have to go get the Guzmáns for Isabela's engagement." She told you guys.

"Stay away from Luisa until I can talk to her. Tonight, we can't have any more problems. And whatever you two are doing, stop doing it." She said before making her way down the stairs.

Luisa's sobbing could be heard from her room. You and Mirabel only looked at each other, exchanging worried looks. As she cried, her room door creaked, and the glow from her door flickered and faded.

"Come, I need to show you something." Mirabel tapped your arm with the back of her hand and headed to the nursery.

Following her, you both entered the room, closing the door behind you. Taking the glass shards out of her bag, she placed them down on top of her sewing table.

"Why are you in Bruno's vision?" She whispered, setting down the same shards that formed the image of you in your corrupted form.

"What?" You gasped lightly, taking a step backwards.

Suddenly, there was a loud rumble of thunder from behind the both of you and you jumped at the loud sound.

Mirabel took the shards and quickly hid them behind her back, staring at Tía Pepa. She stared back at the both of you with wide, menacing eyes.

Mirabel relaxed a bit when she realized who it was. "Tía! Jeez."

You sighed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was just Tía Pepa.
