What if before Mirabel was even 5 Bruno took her away? What if he did it to protect her? What if they left the Encanto for good? What if he didn't shy away from the truth about her real parents? Well, you're in luck.
"Damnit! I lost again!" Mirabel screamed into her mic. She was currently playing Fortnite with one of her friends, Paolo, "Well that's what you get when you don't pay attention to the closing border," his voice said, "Shut up, you won't even know how to play Minecraft!"
"Mirabel!" A voice called. "Ah! Sorry dude I gotta go my papa is calling, at the same time?" She asked, "sure, bye Loca!" He said. Mirabel rolled her eyes and left the VC.
She turned off her P.C and went to change into something else.
She and Papa lived in New York City in a small apartment, her papa worked an office job that paid lots of money so they didn't have money concerns currently. Another thing about her papa was that he could see the future, see she and him were part of a magical Columbian bloodline called "Madrigals" and when they turn 5 they would get a gift.
But Mirabel knew, from her papa, that she wasn't going to get one, she also knew her 'Papa' wasn't her papa at all! He was her Tio Bruno. But she didn't care much and still called him papa, as for why they left she doesn't know why but whatever it is must be good.
Mirabel changed out of her 'Demon Slayer' hoodie and wore a t-shirt that said 'Green day' and denim shorts that had butterflies embroidered onto them.
She looked at herself in the mirror, pleased with the outfit, and looked around her room.
Her room was pretty small but big enough for her bed, gaming set up, a closet, and her fashion/embroider stuff. She smiled and walked out of her room into the kitchen.
There she saw her papa sitting on the couch watching a cooking show, he was a petite man with no defining quality except his mouse pin Mirabel made him for his birthday 2 years ago.
"Papa, you called?" She said, sitting next to him.
He turned to her with a playful, "You know you could just call me 'Tio Bruno'?" Mirabel frowned at this, "But you're my papa, biological or not." He laughs and Mirabel smiles. "Why did you call me?" She asked, Bruno, looked down with a sad look, "Well, I've been thinking... I think it's time for us to go back," Mirabel shot up from her seat, "What the hell?!" She screamed, "Why?!" Bruno winces and Mirabel calms down.
"Uhm, Mira I need you to understand that I need you to understand I can't keep you away from our family, I promised your papa to bring you back. I intend to keep it." He said in a firm voice.
Mirabel's eyes widen, she had never had heard her papa talk in such a serious manner before. She lowers her head and Bruno sighed, "I'm sorry Mira, but we will be leaving in a week for a vacation to visit them" Bruno then smiled at her, "You better start packing," Mirabel nodded and smiled at him and ran into her room and began to pack.
Mirabel's POV
"You're going to meet your family?!" Paolo screamed, through discord. I nodded as a pushed down on my clothing into my suitcase. "Yea! I can't believe I'm going to meet them! The funny thing is they probably don't even know who I am!" I groaned, putting my laptop into a duffel bag. "You know, I could ask my parents if I could go?" I perk up, "What?!" I looked towards the computer, "Tell me I miss heard that." Paolo grinned, "Come on! we have been friends since we were 6, I know your 'papa' secret and he does like so don't think he would mind." I couldn't help but smile, "I'll ask my papa," I said, he smiled and waved by to ask his parents.
As I closed the VC I couldn't help but smile even wider, Paolo was my best friend he was one of the first people I completely trusted. I look at my sewing corner and saw the crochet bear I had planned to give him, "Well, I'll just give it to him when we leave," I said to myself and got up to ask papa.

Encanto,

3rd person POV
Agustin chopped the wood with a smile on his face. He loved helping out the village and he loved his familia, his smile falters at a thought, he looked at the mountain range "Bruno...How's Mirabel?" He whispered, 15 years ago Bruno had left with his youngest daughter when she was a baby, Agustin had caught him in the act but never confronted him since Bruno was on the horse before he could get to them. Something like that would make you think he would hate Bruno but he didn't, he felt a sense of relief when it happened, Mirabel wouldn't have to grow up with the expectation placed before her.
Suddenly In the corner of his eye, he saw a figure moving into the deeper part of the forest. He turned to the figure and it turned out to be Agustin's oldest niece, Dolores, he raised an eyebrow and decided to follow her.
Dolores slowly walked through the forest, anxious, it had been 15 years since she last saw them and they have brought someone new. She turned a corner and pushed back some leaves, "Tio..." Dolores whispered, in front of the girl were 3 people, The first one she spotted she could immediately tell it was her tio, even though it had been a long time he was still the same maybe a little tired and cleaner. The next one was a boy between the age range of 10-16 if she was right his name was Paolo, he had wave black locks and light brown skin, he was wearing an outfit Dolores had never seen before and was talking to a girl and making jokes that Dolores didn't understand. When she looked at the girl her breath hitched, this was Mirabel, she looked like a mini Julieta except with shorter and curlier hair, she was also wearing the same style of clothes as Paolo was wearing.
The 3 travellers turn to Dolores and Bruno wore a smile. "Hola Dol!" He said with a bright smile, she stepped out of the bush and hugged her tio with tears in her eyes "H-hey! don't cry Dol," Said Bruno, hugging her back, she didn't respond instead burying her head deeper.
"miércoles," everyone turned around and saw Agustine who had his hands covering his mouth, tears rolling down his face. Mirabel's eyes widen and turned to Bruno who was nodding, she slowly walked towards Agustin who was walking towards her, "Papa?-" she gets tackled by Agustin who was hugging her tightly and sobbing, "Oh Dios Mio, you've grown since the last time I saw you-" He rambled, touching her cheeks and glasses. "Uhm, nice to meet you, Tio?" She said fixing her glasses, at that Agustin frowns. "You don't know who I am?" He asks, Mirabel shakes her head, "No, I do its just..." She looks towards Bruno who wasn't looking back, Agustin sighs and nods his head, "You got used to calling him papa, I get it..." He looks back at Bruno, "I don't hate you, Bruno, I'm thankful you raised her without expectations," Bruno looked up and smiled.
"Alright!" everyone turned to Paolo who looked uncomfortable. "Okay, Im Paolo, Mirabel's Filipino best friend, and I have questions" He pointed to Dolores and Agustin, "First of who are you two and secondly where are we going to sleep?" Bruno sighs and moves the two people near Paolo, "This is Agustin my brother-in-law, aka Mirabel's real dad, and Dolores, my niece." He said, "And about the sleeping thing, I brought a tent so we can sleep in that." He finished but Agustin shook his head, "Nonesense you will be staying at the Casita." Bruno and Dolores's eyes widen in shock and Mirabel starts smiling, "Tio, do think it a good idea?" She asks and he nods, "Just bring these guys to the Casita, ill handle the rest,"
(A/n I'll probably make more of this cause I like the idea, plus im back from not updating for 2 days lmao- if you want me to expand the idea vote for the chapter!)
