A Different Kind of Magic - The Philosopher's Stone
Author's note
Silver - This is a repair of the rewrite of A Different Kind of Magic book 1, I recently re-read it and so many mistakes, so I decided to rewrite the story, the previous one will remain up till I have caught up to where I got up to. I did look to see that there was a magic school for those in South America, but there is not a lot of information given about the school, I don't feel confident in writing about the culture of Colombia and south America. Also I do not know Spanish, I use google translate. Also I am including that Bruno is Mirabel's father, but due to the vision he had, he hid away to protect Mirabel, even though he swore that he had seen strange events around his daughter.
Loki - Please let us know in the comments/reviews if anything is translated differently and we will get it fixed (only on AO3 as it is easily to get things edited on there).
Silver - Below are pictures of who I can picture being the Encanto characters if they were Live Action. I tried to find the actors and actresses of South America, I think I did well and I know the actor for Bruno is not from South America, but he has the look I wanted for Bruno in this story.
Loki - Also keep in mind that Antonio is not yet born as of the prologue and then he is a baby for most of the story, but when Silver gets up to book 5 and beyond, if any of you know young actors that can be the actor claim, please let us know.
Silver - Also a massive thank you nadasnape (on the other version of this story) for the suggestions and the website (such a massive help).
Loki - Please keep in mind, that some of these are my picks for the characters and also I am trying to find age right for the characters.
Silver - I know that the creators of Encanto have revealed the birthdays of the characters, while I will keep some of them the same, there are only a few that remain how I had them.

Casita
Encanto, Colombia
18th of July, 1985
1:30am
A man with shoulder length curly black hair stood in a room surrounded by sand with an emerald glass plate that had an image on it in his hands with a look of shock on his face. This man was Bruno Madrigal and he was gifted with the power of a seer, he created the emerald glass plates that showed the outcome of a vision.
"This... this has not happened before" he muttered to himself tilting the plate slightly left then to the right, where the image changed slightly and he sat down heavily on the sand keeping his eyes on the image.
The image filled Bruno's heart with fear as he sat in the sand, knowing what his family, especially his mother, would do if she saw the emerald plate and he let the emerald glass plate fall into the sand as tears formed in his eyes and he shook his head.
"I... I am going to have to leave in order to protect my daughter... I... oh Marlene... I am so sorry for not being strong enough to protect our daughter... I wish I knew where you were" Bruno cried as he dropped his knees and placed his hands on the sand as tears fell.
Having spent at least an hour trying to calm himself, Bruno wiped away the tears before standing and began to pace. It occurred to Bruno, he knew his mother and everyone else would assume the worst if they saw the emerald vision plate, not even considering tilting it or asking Bruno to explain the vision (they never did anyway), and he paused in his pace.
"I truly can not let mother or anyone find this vision..." Bruno's eyes widen as the fear returned "I.. I am truly going have to leave Casita and even Encanto... I have to leave to protect Mirabel" Bruno muttered to himself before he looked to where the emerald vision plate fell and there looking at him was the vision of Casita in ruins with Mirabel in front of the building.
Bruno looked away from it and took a deep breath before looking back at it. When Bruno picked it up and threw it as hard as he could into the wall, it shattered, causing him to let out a breath as he examined the pieces now lying on the sand. He got back on his knees and then grabbed lumps of sand in order to hide the pieces deep within the sand, hoping that no one dug around to find the pieces.
Bruno sat in the sand taking a deep breath before getting back up to his feet and walked over to the door that led to his bedroom, knowing he would have to hurry to pack his things before his family woke up for the day. Taking a look at his chested drawers, he saw photos that showed him and a woman smiling at each other, their eyes filled with love.
"Marlene, I wish I knew where you were and if you were alright... Mirabel needs you, I need you" Bruno whispered as tears formed in his eyes before he shook his head and got back to packing as he walked over to the chested drawers.
He paused in his packing to look over to the photos one last time before packing them away into a box. Then he went and packed a bag filled with his clothes and a few keepsakes that he wanted to keep with him.
Eventually, he had to leave, so he walked quietly down to the Nursery and opened it quietly. He smiled sadly when he saw his only child curled up in front of a small butterfly plush pillow that Marlene gave her before leaving to wherever she had disappeared, and he walked quietly over to her.
"Good bye mi mariposita, I love you always and forever" Bruno whispered keeping his voice quiet from his niece who had sensitive hearing and also not to wake his daughter.
Once he left the nursery, he went back up to his room and grabbed the bag filled with clothes and small keepsakes. As Bruno closed his room door and he walked quietly to the kitchen and left a note for everyone.
Dear everyone,
I am sorry for leaving like this, but I can no longer stay here... it breaks my heart to do this but I have to leave... please care for my daughter, get her to believe that Julieta and Agustin are her parents... give no mention of me... ban even a mention of me... make me the boogeyman... spread the word to the village... it is better this way... all I ask is please treat Mirabel right, do not cast her out cause she did not get a gift.
Bruno
Bruno folded the letter and placed it on Julieta's plate knowing she and Agustin are the first to wake and get breakfast started. Bruno finally started to walk towards the front door with his heart breaking with every step. However, he paused as the soft sound of Casita moving her tiles to get his attention and he turned to look where Casita wanted him to look and he watched in amazement as Casita revealed a hidden space behind a painting.
"You don't want me to leave, do you?" Bruno whispered to the house and two tiles shook and Bruno looked over to the Nursery, where his daughter slept and he looked back to the painting before he nodded.
Bruno walked up the stairs quietly with Casita's help and slipped in to the hole behind the painting which was closed behind him. Bruno walked down the dusty hallway and found a small hideaway, where he made his new small room and waited for the reaction of his family to his small letter.
His sister Julieta was the first to awaken followed by her husband Agustin then Pepa and Felix walk in. Julieta had walked passed her seat to start getting breakfast ready for everyone and missed seeing the letter, but Felix noticed it.
Bruno panicked seeing Dolores and Isabela enter the kitchen.
"Dolores, please say nothing about me being here... I promise to explain everything to you later on when everyone is out doing their chores" Bruno whispered and he saw the smallest of nods from his second eldest niece.
"Julieta, you missed this" Felix stated as he walked over to Julieta's place at the table and picked up the letter.
"Where is Bruno? And why are Mirabel and Camilo not up yet?" his mother asked entering with Luisa.
"I am letting Mirabel sleep in, just a little bit... last night was hard on her... and Camilo is just about to exit his room" Dolores replied and his mother looked to Dolores in shock., however before his mother could say anything there was a gasp from Julieta, who had tears forming reading the letter.
"Julieta, what's wrong?" his mother asked with worry and walked over to her oldest child.
"Bruno... he... he has... he has run away" Julieta cried dropping the letter to the table as everyone gasped in shock, Agustin moved quick to grab his wife before she fell too hard on the tiled floor and just held her as tears fell from her eyes, while Felix held Pepa close to him rubbing her back uncaring of the rain falling on him.
His mother went and grabbed the letter from the table and read it out loud, which caused his sobrinas and sobrino to gasp out in shock.
"Then... then we shall do... do as he asks..." his mother turned to look at Dolores "Dolores... can... can you hear him at all around the Encanto?" his mother asked calmly with her voice breaking and Dolores shook her head.
"I am sorry Abuela, but I can not hear him" Dolores replied and Alma sighed heavily leaning on her chair slightly before she straighten her back.
"Then we shall do as he asks... it... I know it hurts, but Bruno... he has asked this of us... to make him the boogeyman" Alma said with her heart hurting and everyone nodded with tears in their eyes.
Everyone watched as Alma left the kitchen with the letter in hand and went upstairs.
"Felix, Agustin... could you head down to the village and inform them that we are having a day of just family... also spread the word of Bruno leaving and his wishes for the rumours about him to spread" Julieta stated and the two men agreed leaving for the village.
"Julieta, I will take the Children outside... you take all the time you need to get breakfast sorted" Pepa stated surprising Bruno and he watched as his sisters hugged.
As the hours ticked by, Bruno saw Dolores coming back from whatever Pepa had her doing and Bruno went to the portrait where he entered.
"Dolores... thank you for not telling anyone that I was still here" Bruno said as Dolores climbed through the portrait and hugging Bruno.
"You are welcome, Tio Bruno... but now please answer me... Why do you hide, Tio Bruno? Why leave that note?" Dolores asked with a soft voice and Bruno bit his lip before sighing.
"Dolores... is there anyone else around that could hear us or come into Casita?" Bruno asked his sobrina and he saw Dolores close her eyes which he knew was her way of finding exactly where the family was.
Bruno's thought briefly turned to his missing wife and how she was the closet out of everyone to Dolores. She had taught Dolores many tricks on how to control her gift, to not see it as a curse and he knew that Dolores greatly missed her aunt. There was also a small part of him that wondered what else there was to Marlene's past that she never told him and he knew there was missing bits of history.
"No... all of them are down in the village, Agustin has Mirabel and Camilo with him" Dolores replied and Bruno sighed with relief.
"That is good to hear, how did you get away from Abuela?" Bruno asked curious and Dolores crossed her arms with a raise of her eyebrow.
"You promised answers, so I told Abuela that I needed a small break in my room and she agreed?" Dolores answered calmly with a look that reminded Bruno so much of Marlene that he smiled at Dolores.
"You have really copied Marlene's 'I'm Waiting' face there, she would be so proud that you got that down..." Dolores twitched the corner of her lip and Bruno chuckled "alright, alright, answers... well the first thing is that I will not tell you the vision I had..." Dolores looked shocked "I will tell you that I only left to protect Mirabel... so please for me get Mirabel to believe Julieta and Agustin are her... her parents" Bruno looking away and Dolores hugged Bruno again which had him rubbing her back "I will be okay, I just... at least I can watch over her even if it behind a wall" Bruno whispered closing his eyes hugging Dolores and he felt tiny bits of water on his neck.
"Tio... I... I am sorry... but please tell me what you saw... so you do not have to shoulder the burden by yourself" Dolores whispered before letting Bruno go and looked into his eyes.
"Hey, none of that... I was given that vision for a reason and till it is clear to me, then I will remain hidden" Bruno told her softly and Dolores sighed before she nodded.
"I will visit you whenever I want and can" Dolores stated firmly and Bruno chuckled.
"Mi querida sobrina... of course, you can visit me and I will only say that there are two futures with Mirabel, I could not let Abuela see them... she would have only seen the bad outcome" Bruno explained sadly and Dolores looked towards the village.
"I will keep your secret... is there anything else?" Dolores replied and Bruno felt tears form in his eyes.
"Just protect her... keep her safe... keep her happy" Bruno whispered as tears fell and Dolores felt tears form in her eyes as well.
"Te lo prometo tio Bruno " Dolores told him and he gave her a hug before he sent her off and he leaned against the wall wishing for his wife by his side.
That following week, everyone made sure never to mention Bruno or that Mirabel was his child, while Bruno watched his daughter become confused and unsure of herself.
"I will always watch over you, Mirabel... mi mariposita" Bruno whispered a tear fell and he looked away and went back to his chair with only the company of rats.
6 years later
Casita
Encanto, Colombia
20th of July, 1991
7:15am
There was a strange sight of an owl flying over the mountain that surrounded Encanto as the sun rose for another beautiful day and headed straight for the Madrigal home, where the residents were setting up for breakfast. There were 10 people and a baby seated around a long table.
"Hm..." Dolores squeaked hearing the soft hooting coming closer and she frowned tilting her head "strange... there is an owl flying this way and it does not sound like a local species of owl" Dolores muttered just loud enough for her mother to hear as she looked towards the sky with a frown trying to find the owl.
"That is strange... " Pepa replied with a thoughtful look, before she looked to her eldest and only daughter, however before she tell her mother about what Dolores heard, there was a soft crack in the air that echoed in the air which had caused Dolores to squeak in fright and stand in alarm which had Alma standing up as well.
"What was that?" Alma asked her second eldest granddaughter and before Dolores could reply, everyone saw that a tall, rather severe-looking woman with black hair in a tight bun and wearing an emerald dress walked out from the right hand side of Casita's front yard.
"Oh dear, I didn't realise you would be eating outside... are you all family?" the woman asked looking to each member and Alma looked at her with a slight glare.
"Who are you first? Barraging onto my property" Alma demanded as Pepa handed Antonio over to Felix and the woman stood up straighter looking into Alma's eyes.
"My name is Minerva McGonagall, please answer my question of are you all family?" Minerva stated calmly and the Madrigals looked uncertain.
"We are family..." Mirabel tilted her head "why do you ask?" Mirabel answered followed by a question which had Alma glare towards her youngest granddaughter, who ignored the glare keeping her eyes on this Minerva McGonagall, who looked towards her with a kind smile.
"Are you Mirabel Madrigal?" Minerva asked softly and Mirabel nodded looking confused.
"I am" Mirabel answered and no one saw that Dolores glanced quickly to Casita, she knew that her tio would be confused seeing a strange woman near his daughter and Dolores hoped that the family and this Minerva moved into Casita so her tio could hear whatever this Minerva wanted with Mirabel.
"Who are you parents?" Minerva asked which drew Dolores eyes back to her as her Tia Julieta stepped forward with Tio Agustin just behind her.
"I am, my name is Julieta and this is my husband Agustin..." Julieta stated and Minerva nodded.
"Is there somewhere private that we can go and chat, so we are not overheard by others of this village" Minerva asked glancing around the garden and towards the village before looking back to Julieta, however before Julieta could say anything Alma took a step forward.
"What you have to say will be heard by the whole family, there are no secrets in my family..." Minerva looked to her "why are you here stranger?" Alma demanded once again and Minerva raise an eyebrow at the demanding Alma.
"As I stated, I wish for us to go somewhere private and I can explain everything to you, so could we go into the home so we can talk without others of the village hearing" Minerva asked kindly yet with a firm voice and Alma nodded still with distrusting eyes.
Soon everyone filed into the house as Mirabel was shielded by Isabela and Luisa. However, as soon as Dolores entered Casita, she heard her tio moving closer to the lounge area and she glanced quickly to the wall once Bruno stopped walking.
"Dolores, who is that?" Bruno asked quietly watching from a near by gap and Dolores glanced slightly to show she was listening to him with a small tilt of her head to tell him to listen.
"So why are you here? Strangers do not come to Encanto nor are they welcome" Alma stated crossing her arms and the family sat down in the different chairs.
"I am here to deliver this for Mirabel Madrigal..." Minerva handed a strange looking letter to Mirabel who frowned "you are a witch, Miss Madrigal" Minerva stated as Mirabel looked shocked at the blunt news as was everyone else.
Dolores heard her uncle drop heavily into to his knees and she could hear him mutter.
"How could I have forgotten what Marlene told me, I know she promised to explain when she returned, but she never did... oh I knew Mirabel had a gift of something yet not from the candle... her gift is the same as Marlene... just not a gift that mama would have expected... " Bruno sighed heavily "Dolores, don't alert anyone, I... I am going to come out... I need to help support my daughter in this reveal" Bruno whispered softly and Dolores swallowed as she heard walking through the narrow hallways behind the walls.
"The gift ceremony..." Alma started and Dolores swallowed hearing her tio get closer and she knew family would shout in shock as Bruno chose to appear, she wanted to go back to her room and protect her ears.
"Did not work cause she already had a power within, which got got from her mother..." everyone shot to their feet in surprise at hearing the new voice and turned to see Bruno standing there in the doorway looking slightly awkward "I always had a feeling deep within that Mirabel would not get a gift from the candle due to well what her mother told me" Bruno decided not to say Marlene's name for it still hurt him deeply that she left him and he saw that his mother, siblings and brothers in law looked incredulous at seeing him again, while his sobrinas and sobrino were just gaping at him, apart from Dolores who looked at him with a small proud smile and then he glanced to see his daughter's reaction and he saw there were tears falling from her eyes as she stood in shock.
"Brunito?" Abuela whispered in shock as her eyes widen as tears started to form as she watched her son step forward looking at McGonagall.
"Madam, I am Mirabel's father and I am here to support my daughter" Bruno stated calmly that shook Mirabel from her shock for she ran forward to the shock of everyone and jumped at Bruno, who caught her.
"Papa... you're here" Mirabel cried into Bruno's shoulder as he hugged her close kissing the top of her head.
"I am so sorry, Mira... I am so sorry I left" Bruno whispered as he kissed his daughter's head again and held her in his arms.
"Where did you come from? How did you know to come here now?" Minerva asked with her eyes narrowing and Bruno looked at her then slightly to the family.
"I have been hiding in the walls..." the family looked to Dolores "do not blame Dolores about keeping it a secret..." Bruno looked back to Minerva "I have been in the walls for six years... the family history is a bit long, just know that my family and I are special... a different special to being a witch or wizard..." Bruno remembered Marlene telling him the difference between the genders "everyone apart from my mother and Antonio..." Bruno nodding his his to the little baby "have different gifts and now I know Mirabel has magic that she got from her mother" Bruno said with a soft smile looking to Mirabel who was still hugging him.
"Gifts?" Minerva asked with an eyebrow raise and Alma sighed with a small glare to Bruno.
"46 years ago, my husband gave his life to protect mine and our children... his sacrifice blessed this valley and gave us a home... when my children Julieta, Pepa and Bruno were 5, they were given a power..." Alma explained her story which Minerva looked amazed at and then Alma looked to her two daughters and their children "Julieta, Pepa, could you introduce yourselves and your family?" Alma requested and the two nodded still in shock about Bruno returning.
"I introduced myself and my husband outside, these are our daughters Isabela and Luisa... my gift that I can heal with food, pretty much anything but mental health, genetic ailments and of course death... while Agustin and Felix do not have a gift" Julieta said as her two daughters nodded their heads at Minerva and Minerva looked impressed at the gift.
"Nothing can cure death for it is a part of life" Minerva said and everyone nodded in agreement.
"I... I can... Bruno?" Pepa whispered still in shock at seeing her little brother and Bruno put Mirabel down, knowing that his sisters wanted to hug him and once Mirabel was on the ground with Dolores coming over to her and whispering softly to her.
Julieta and Pepa ran to him hugging him close, which he welcome missing their hugs and Minerva was shocked to see a small cloud form above the triplets and rain started on them.
"I am Pepa's husband, Felix and she can control the weather through her emotions, while these are our children Dolores, Camilo and this is Antonio" Felix explained smiling at the triplet reunion, then smiling at his children and Minerva looked impressed before a worried look came over her face.
"That would be a hard gift to have" Minerva stated as the triplets released their hug and Pepa looked at her.
"It can be" Pepa replied still in shock and Bruno rubbed her shoulders before looking to Minerva and giving a sigh.
"And I can see the future and created emerald plates that show the outcome just not how it gets to that point" Bruno stated calmly as Mirabel hugged her father and Minerva raised an eyebrow at Bruno's gift.
"How may I ask, do you see the future?" Minerva asked with a bit of a scoff which got Dolores to give her a slight glare and Bruno tilted his head.
"I use a mix of sand and fire that helps form the emerald plates, maybe later I can show you if you wish, but I should inform you that I have not used my gift in 6 years... due to seeing something that involved my daughter..." Bruno looked Mirabel "I decided I needed to protect her due to how many in the village see me as bad luck Bruno, I knew I had to go away and hide for Mirabel's safety" Bruno explained softly and Minerva saw the family but one looked surprise which caused Pepa to gasp in shock and glance towards Dolores.
"Dolores... you knew he was here" Pepa whispered seeing her daughter's face and Bruno looked at his sister.
"Pepa, please don't be angry at her.. be angry at me for asking her to keep it to herself" Bruno stated as Mirabel looked at her father with shock and then to Dolores with tears forming in her eyes.
Then before anyone could stop her, Mirabel ran up the stairs and Bruno looked to his family.
"Go Bruno... you best tell her everything" Julieta stated and Bruno nodded as she followed his daughter up the stairs.
"She hates me for keeping her father's secret" Dolores whispered and Isabela ran over to hug her prima.
"Give her time, Dolores" Felix told his daughter, who looked up the stairs with a sad look and Julieta looked around the room.
"Would anyone like a cup of tea, while we wait for Bruno and Mirabel to return?" Julieta asked and everyone nodded.
"Just a black tea, please" Minerva told Julieta who nodded and left the room.

Chapter two
Mirabel's point of view
Minutes before
Mirabel felt her heart break realising the same as her Tia Pepa, who had turned to look at Dolores who stood just behind her and Mirabel felt tears forming.
"Dolores... you knew he was here" Tia Pepa whispered and Mirabel's heart felt like it was breaking, then there was a little voice in her head saying that her father did not want her and then she heard what her papa said to Tia Pepa.
"Pepa, please don't be angry at her... be angry at me for asking her to keep it to herself" her papa stated calmly and with those words Mirabel felt her world crash as she looked at her father with sadness and then looked to Dolores who had a hand on her shoulder.
Mirabel had to get away, so she ran before anyone could say anything else that could hurt her and as she ran up the stairs, she heard the gasps from her family and she ran for her room in order to get to her favour spot on the roof.
No point of view
Bruno ran after his daughter, amazed at her speed and he truly regretted summoning the vision all those years ago. Even if it was at the request of his mother, he should have stood up to her and told her no.
"Casita, where has Mirabel gone?" Bruno asked out of breath on top of the stairs and he watched as the tiles shifted into an arrow pointing out the window and Bruno gasped before sighing.
Bruno walked over to the window and looked out it to see if he could see where his daughter was, but sadly he could not meaning he would have to get out onto the roof.
"No, I don't want to see you... go away" Mirabel's voice echoed as Bruno got onto the roof and he looked above him to see Mirabel sitting on top of the frame of her window and he climbed up to her.
"Mirabel, I am so sorry for the hurt I have caused you... could you please let me explain before you do anything else?" Bruno pleaded as he slowly climbed up to Mirabel with Casita's help, who moved the tiles to help him climb up to his daughter.
"Fine" Mirabel answered and Bruno sighed in relief as he sat down next to her and he smiled at the view.
"First, I want to say that I truly am sorry for how much I hurt you by leaving you... it hurt me so much but I left cause I was afraid... you know my gift, don't you?" Bruno asked her and Mirabel nodded still not looking at him.
"You can see the future" Mirabel mumbled softly yet Bruno still heard it which had him look to the forest that surrounded the village.
"Yes, I do and it is a heavy burden to have, it is weight deep within my mind... even in my soul... did you know that it was your abuela asked me to see why you were not granted a gift from the candle and while I did not want to do, by the time I got back to my room to think on it... I... I knew I had to and you know what... and it.., today it has hit me that there were so many things that I never knew about your mother... I only knew the basics, I wish I knew where she went" Bruno explained and Mirabel looked at him.
"What did you see? And what do you mean by the basics?" Mirabel asked softly and Bruno looked at her.
"Could I tell you those later today?" Mirabel looked to him with an eyebrow raise that reminded him so much of Marlene "I promise, let's get through reading this letter from this school and then we will talk" Bruno told Mirabel softly, who looked down before she nodded.
"Okay, papa... but please tell me everything about mama and why you hid away" Mirabel replied and Bruno nodded as Mirabel hugged him and he kissed the top of her head.
"I promise..." Bruno muttered softly as Mirabel hugged him "we should head back downstairs, I have a feeling that Madam McGonagall has places to be" Bruno whispered to her and Mirabel let go and nodded.
Casita helped them get back inside and the two headed back down the stairs.
Casita
Encanto, Colombia
20th of July, 1991
9am
Downstairs, the Madrigal family and Minerva McGonagall were sitting in awkward silence for the pass 30 minutes, while they watched Dolores listen to Bruno and Mirabel. Pepa had Antonio in her arms while chanting clear skies so it would not rain and cause both hermano and sobrina to fall off the roof.
"Dolores" Felix whispered and Pepa looked to her only daughter and saw there were tears in her eyes. Felix walked over to her and sat down next to her as Dolores turned to hug him.
Dolores hugged her father as tears fell from her eyes hearing her Tio Bruno and Mirabel speaking, she knew there would be a bigger talk and she vowed to be there for her youngest prima and her tio.
"It will be okay, baby" her father whispered softly and Dolores simply hugged him.
It was a few minutes of quiet before Dolores spoke up.
"They are coming down" Dolores stated softly as Felix rubbed her back before he stopped and Dolores stood up.
"Will they be okay?" Alma asked softly and Dolores bit her lip.
"There will be a bigger talk, but Tio Bruno got Mirabel to agree to come down to read the letter, so Madam McGonagall can go about her day" Dolores explained and Minerva set her tea cup down.
"Before I came here, I only visited one other family and I gave them 6 hours to think if they wish their daughter to attend Hogwarts or if they wish to send her to Beauxbatons in France" Minerva explained and Isabela looked interested having learnt a little bit of French.
"Beauxbatons?" Isabela questioned with an eyebrow raised and before Minerva could answer Bruno and Mirabel entered the room.
"Could I please read the letter?" Mirabel asked looking at Minerva and she nodded.
"Here you go, Miss Madrigal, your letter" Minerva said as Mirabel and Mirabel swallowed as she opened the letter carefully.
Mirabel had pulled out two pieces of the strange paper and looked at one before placing it down on the table.
"Mira, why don't you read it out?" Luisa said and Mirabel nodded in agreement.
"HOGWARTS SCHOOL of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY, Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore..." Mirabel was cut off by Minerva.
"You don't have to read all of his titles" McGonagall stated calmly with a gentle smile and Mirabel nodded before looking back to the letter.
"Dear Miss Madrigal, We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry... please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment... term begins on 1 September... we await your owl by no later than 31 July... yours sincerely, Minerva McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress" Mirabel read out and Minerva smiled at her.
"Now I should say that you were a surprise for the upcoming year" Minerva said calmly and the family looked at her with questioning eyes.
"Why do you say that, Madam McGonagall?" Felix asked as he rocked Antonio softly in his arms while Pepa and Julieta sat near Bruno and Minerva looked at him then back to Mirabel and Bruno.
"I should have said this when I first arrived, but no matter, I shall explain now..." McGonagall took a breath "you are a special case... you would be one of the first students that is not from the United Kingdom, I was surprised that when the letter appeared on my desk, there you were and I decided that I would come here and explain the letter to you, also to get your answer in person" Minerva stated and everyone looked at each other.
"What do you mean that Mira would be one of the first?" Isabela asked curious with a tilt of her head and Minerva looked at her.
"Hogwarts only accepts students from the United Kingdom, here in South America you have the Castelobruxo, which is located in Northern Brazil amongst the Amazon Rain Forest and they should have sent you an acceptance letter, unless... hmmm" Minerva looked to Bruno "may I ask who Mirabel's mother is?" Minerva asked and before Bruno could answer, Mirabel spoke up looking at Minerva.
"How can I even have magic? When I was not given a room? Why haven't this Castelobruxo sent a letter or anything to invite me to their school?" Mirabel asked in rapid fire still in surprise and Bruno hugged his daughter with a kiss on a top of her head.
"Miss Madrigal, have you ever made strange things happen? Or summon things to you? I can find out why Castelobruxo has not sent you a letter if you would like" Minerva asked gently and there was a sharp intake of breath from Bruno, while Mirabel nodded at Minerva.
"Yes, there were a few times, but they had slowed down as she turned four... I did not see anything from the walls, but I had forgotten that my wife had explained what to expect if Mirabel were to have magic... magic not from the candle..." Bruno placed a hand on his head and looked down "I still can not believe that I forgot about all the things she told me to look out for" Bruno explained softly and the adults looked down remembering Marlene.
"What can you remember of her doing?" Minerva asked deciding to forgo asking again for Mirabel's mother sensing that it was a sore subject for the man and Bruno rubbed his head thinking hard.
"I remember when Mirabel was about a year old, she was upset and wanted her mother, she had disappeared a few days before..." Minerva felt for the man "anyway Mirabel... she made a few stuffed animals fly around her which had her giggling and clapping her hands... I remember fainting seeing that and I also remember that she changed my hair colour which made her giggle and that she has floated into the air a few times" Bruno answered looking at Mirabel with a soft smile and Mirabel frowned thinking.
"I also think I might have caused Camilo to be covered in flowers because he made me mad, two years ago" Mirabel said with a blush and everyone looked to Isabela.
"I remember that... I am so sorry Isabela for thinking that was you" Camilo said looking to his older cousin and Isabela looked at him.
"You are forgiven" Isabela replied simply and Mirabel looked down thinking of a few more times, but she did not want to mention them.
"What is your power?" Minerva asked curious looking to Isabela and Mirabel leaned into her father.
"I can grow roses and flowers" Isabela replied as she created a flower crown before placing it on Mirabel's head to her shock, while Minerva looked impressed.
"I have a feeling you would be able to do so much more with that gift, if you like I can send you some books on magical plants" Minerva stated and Isabela smiled at her.
"I would like that" Isabela replied remembering what her Tio Bruno saw in her future.
"I can shapeshift" Camilo replied turning into Minerva, who looked shocked before looking at the family.
"You remind me of some old students as well as ones I currently have... I get the sense that you are a prankster" Minerva stated calmly and everyone nodded.
"He is, but we wouldn't want him in any other way" Pepa said with a smile as Felix handed Antonio to Pepa before he grabbed Camilo giving him noogies while Pepa rocked Antonio softly and smiling at her husband and their eldest son.
"Does anyone else have a gift?" Minerva asked looking around the children and Luisa stepped forward.
"I am really strong" Luisa stated with a small blush and Minerva watched as the young muscular woman lift the piano.
"I have sensitive hearing, I can hear everything in the valley" Dolores explained and Minerva looked at her with concern.
"Does it get overwhelming for you? I know that when I transform my hearing is messed up" Minerva asked with concern in her voice and Dolores looked down.
"Yes, it does get overwhelming and I sadly can not escape it anymore..." Dolores as a memory came to her "my Tia had something to help to block out all the sounds so I could sleep as the way it was before I could still hear everything even if it were faint.." Minerva frowned before she nodded.
"I believe that she may have placed a ward on the inside of your room, but I unsure there are not a lot of spells that can do that, I do know one that can do the job if you would like me to replace it" Minerva commented and Dolores smiled with a nod.
"Please and thank you... also my Tia also gave me this..." Dolores pointed to her necklace and Minerva saw a small red heart pendant necklace "I am not sure exactly what she did, most likely spells, but these helped me control my gift a bit easier..." Dolores bit her lip "it broke about a week after she left and well sadly, my control is limited" Dolores confessed and Pepa walked over to her daughter hugged her softly being mindful of Antonio, who got a kiss on the forehead by Dolores.
Meanwhile, Minerva felt her heart break knowing now more than likely Mirabel's mother was dead and she hoped she could find out what happened to the woman so she could ease the remaining members of the family.
"What do you mean by transform?" Agustin asked looking over to her with a questioning look and Minerva smiled at him before to the shock of the family, in her place was a tabby cat and then she changed back.
"How did you do that? Can all witches and wizards do that? And are they all cats?" Luisa asked looking amazed and Minerva looked at her.
"That is my Animagus form, it is a long process and no not all witches and wizards can become an Animagus... and no your Animagus is personal to you" Minerva answered and Camilo looked to Mirabel.
"Mirabel, please go to this school and learn how to become an Animagus and we can prank the village together" Camilo pleaded and Mirabel looked at him.
"I will think about it" Mirabel answered with a cheeky grin and Bruno sighed knowing that his daughter would learn to change into an animal.
"Before we get ahead of ourselves, Mirabel has not answered if she wanted to go to Hogwarts" Alma stated calmly and everyone looked to Mirabel who bit her lip.
"It is your choice, mi mariposita... no one can tell you what you should do, you have to feel it in your heart..." Mirabel looked down and Bruno looked to Minerva "where in the United Kingdom is Hogwarts located?" Bruno asked wanting to know a bit more about Hogwarts.
"Scotland and before you ask Hogwarts is a boarding school, so she would be there from the 1st of September to 9th of June, with a two week Christmas break and a one week Easter break, where she can return home for those holidays" Minerva replied and Bruno looked to Mirabel.
"Mi mariposita, no matter what you decide... you will always be mi mariposita" Bruno told Mirabel and she looked at him before looking to her family with an unsure look.
"Madam, when do you need an answer by?" Abuela asked firmly looking at Minerva, who looked at her with surprise.
"If you like, I can give you a few hours and even start chasing up why no letter from Castelobruxo came, also if you wish to come to Hogwarts, I can help her get the equipment, books and robes that she will need for the upcoming school year" Minerva replied in the same firm tone and Bruno looked to her.
"Madam McGonagall, there has been something that has not yet been spoken about" Minerva gave him a questioning look "what about money for supplies?" Bruno asked with concern and Alma looked to her son with surprise.
"There is a scholarship fund that can be used for Muggle-raised, Muggleborn or families that are poor" Minerva replied and Bruno looked to his mother.
"We will talk about it, what about the tuition for the school?" Abuela asked looking to her son with a strange expression that Bruno could not work out, while Minerva nodded at Alma's question.
"Tuition is currently free, but I will warn you that due to Mirabel being a first gen witch there are those that will look down on her and I have heard there are many in the Ministry and even on the board for the school that want to charge those of muggle birth to attend Hogwarts, but I will tell you that while Albus Dumbledore is Headmaster of Hogwarts no charges of those sort will make it through" Minerva stated calmly knowing the power that Albus held and Mirabel looked at Minerva.
"Strength comes from within" Mirabel whispered to herself and Minerva looked to the young girl and then she frowned seeing something that reminded her of someone.
"Before I leave, what happened to Mirabel's mother? What was her name? I could try and see if I can track down what happened to her as there are many spells that can be used to track down a person" Minerva asked curiously and she saw the adults look down.
"She disappeared... about a year after Mirabel's birth... I rarely have spoken about her, her disappearance hurt me deeply..." Minerva felt for the younger man "her name was Marlene" Bruno answered and Minerva stepped back in shock and then she looked back to Mirabel. While Mirabel took after her father's family, Minerva could see that Mirabel had Marlene's smile, eye shape and the need to wear glasses.
"No... was her maiden name McKinnon..." Minerva asked feeling the shock still hitting her and her heart broke knowing that the whole McKinnon family killed by He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
"Yes, did... do you know her? Is she okay?" Bruno asked looking shocked while Mirabel looked at Minerva with pleading eyes.
"Yes... I taught her... oh, this changes everything and explains a lot... I promise I will be right back... I just need to go and get someone" Minerva stated trying to get her emotions under control and like she did when she arrived, she disappeared in thin air with a sharp crack that had Dolores covering her ears with a pained look on her face.
"What just happened?" Camilo whispered looking to the adults and Bruno hugged his daughter to him.
"She looked shocked at hearing Tia Marlene's maiden name" Luisa muttered quietly and everyone nodded.
"Something happened to her then, it is as I feared" Alma looked to her son "Bruno?" Alma stated, but he held up his hand and looked to Mirabel.
"I promise that I will answer your questions later... but first please... please give me time to talk to my daughter, this... this is needed just the two of us" Bruno stated looking at his mother then to his sisters, he knew they wanted answers on why he hid and what he even saw to cause him to go into hiding. Julieta and Pepa looked to where Mirabel stood next to her father and both swallowed, realising that the time had come for Bruno to talk about Marlene.

There was a sharp crack that echoed around, as Minerva McGonagall appeared still in shock at the reveal of Mirabel's mother, once she saw the castle she changed into her feline form and ran in order to tell Albus Dumbledore about the reveal and get him to meet the family. Plus by running in her feline form she wouldn't have a stitch in her side and as she reached the office, she paused slightly to calm her mind and once she felt ready she changed back into herself and looked at the gargoyle guarding the Headmaster's office.
"Ice Mice" Minerva said calmly and she watched as the gargoyle turned into stairs and she went up to see Albus.
"Minerva, back so soon, I am surprised I normally..." Minerva heard as she entered the office and Minerva felt the shock about to set in again "my dear, what ever is the matter?" Albus asked with concern seeing the look in Minerva's eyes as he got up from his chair and walked over to Minerva and helped her into a chair while Fawkes softly sung hoping to help.
"The shock... it set in again" Minerva got out which had Albus looking concern.
"Minerva, what has happened to cause you to be shocked?" Albus asked calmly and Minerva glanced at him.
"I..." Minerva took a breath to steady herself "Albus... I... the McKinnon family" Minerva got out as she felt the shock hit her again and Albus grew a lot more concerned for his deputy and summoned his patronus of a phoenix.
"Take a message to Poppy" the patronus nodded "Poppy, please come to my office via the floo and bring a calming draught please" Albus stated calmly and the patronus disappeared and he walked back over to Minerva who was still in shock.
"Albus..." Minerva started before Albus stopped her.
"Minerva, deep breaths... we will wait for Poppy and then you can tell us what has you in such shock" Albus stated and Minerva swallowed with a nod of her head. Then the fireplace entered green and a woman entered the office holding a small bottle.
"I am here Albus, whatever is the matter?" Poppy spotted Albus with Minerva and then she hurried over seeing her old friend looking shocked "oh Minerva, what is wrong?" Poppy ran over and gave Minerva the calming draught "give it a couple of minutes to work" Poppy told Minerva who nodded and soon both Albus and Poppy were relieved as Minerva looked such calmer.
"Thank you... it was just a massive shock to find out some information on a possible new student... before I tell either of you, I think you should grab some more calming draughts, Poppy... this... this news changes a lot of things" Minerva stated now much calmer and looked at her two old friends.
"Very well, I will be right back" Poppy stated and both Minerva and Albus nodded as Poppy left the office to get the potions, she was not gone long.
"Please drink them before I tell you the news" Minerva stated and the two drunk the potions.
"Now, please tell Poppy and I, what shocked you so bad that you left getting a young muggleborn student? Why did you say McKinnon family?" Albus asked calmly and Minerva took a deep breath knowing that her two old friends would be shocked by the news.
"The young Muggleborn I was just seeing, a Mirabel Madrigal is not a muggleborn, but a half blood due to her mother... she is the daughter of Marlene McKinnon" Minerva revealed watching her two friends and she watched as the two sat down calmly in shock.
"As you said, this changes a lot of things" Albus muttered as Fawkes softly sung and Minerva nodded in agreement.

20th of July, 1991
There was 20 minutes of silence, as the three old friends sat in shock and Poppy spoke up looking at her two friends with a few tears falling from her eyes.
"So... so..." Poppy took a breath to calm herself "not only are we having James and Lily's son, Alice and Frank's son... but now also Marlene's daughter... a daughter that she told no one of..." Poppy frowned before her eyes widen "she came back here to get her daughter registered with Hogwarts knowing that her daughter would be protected here with Albus as the Headmaster and... and the wards that ancient grounds are on" Poppy whispered and the other two nodded.
"That would be it, but also you would be here as well, Poppy... you were..." Minerva was cut off with a glare from Poppy.
"I know what I was to Marlene, you do not need to repeat that Minerva and don't even try and be cheeky Albus... I know you too well" Poppy growled seeing the small smirk on Headmaster's face and then a small pout.
"I was not going to say it... we miss them all, Poppy... but we know that he will return one day... I just have a feeling deep in my bones that it will be within the next seven years seeing as Harry will be returning to the Wizarding World and now we will have the last of the McKinnion line within the hallowed halls of Hogwarts" Albus stated and the two women nodded.
"We know or at least guess why Marlene came back here, however I wonder why her husband would not have Castelobruxo down as well, it is a good school as well" Poppy stated with an eyebrow raise and Minerva gave a small smile.
"Bruno is her husband's name and apparently he and his family are muggles, but... but they have gifts... a single gift per person minus the baby and the grandmother" Minerva revealed and the two looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"What do you mean by gifts, Minerva?" Albus asked curiously with a tilt of his head and Minerva sighed before looking to her two old friends.
"In all honestly it would be best to see them in person, cause they have been given some powerful gifts, for example, one member has the power to heal with food, anything but mental, genetic or death" Minerva explained and Albus looked amazed while Poppy looked impressed.
"Well, I will be coming with you no mater what" Poppy replied calmly and Minerva nodded before she looked to Albus.
"I want you to come as well as Albus" Minerva stated and Albus looked shocked.
"Minerva, why do you want to come with you?" Albus replied and Minerva raised an eyebrow at him.
"I would like it if you were with me mainly in support, when I tell the family about the events of 1981..." Albus nodded in understanding "also there might be details that you know that I do not know seeing as you were and still are the leader of The Order of The Phoenix, even if the Order is not out and working in the open, I know you... you still have old friends watching those that escaped prison... people like Lucius Malfoy, Nott, Macnair and the Carrows" Minerva stated calmly and Albus chuckled softly.
"I truly can never get much pass you... can I, Minerva?" Albus said with a small smile making Poppy giggle while Minerva simply smirked and Albus shook his head.
"She and I both know you too well, plus I know as well that you were the one that got young Miss Nymphadora Tonks into the force and have her learn under Alastor" Poppy stated and Albus looked shocked before he nodded with a small smile.
"Well, you both continue to surprise me, so yes, I will come with you Minerva... just... just give some time to sort... to sort out something" Albus stated and Minerva nodded.
"Minerva, let me know when you are ready to go as I need to head down to chat with Severus about a few extra potions... I remember how Alice and Marlene were in their first four years" Poppy stated seriously while Albus and Minerva smiled softly remembering how Alice and Marlene were accident prone.
"I will let you know..." she frowned "I best head down and talk to Pomona about Mr Longbottom returning, I know from Augusta that he is a fan of gardening, she also mentioned that the poor boy was very shy..." Albus nodded as she looked to him "let me know when you are ready to head off" Minerva stated and the two ladies left the office, leaving Albus to his thoughts and memories.
Albus Dumbledore stayed seated for a few minutes, as thoughts and memories swirled in his mind from times past. Albus took a steady breath before he swallowed and got to his feet and walked behind his desk and opened up a drawer that had many strange looking toys to old photos. He moved a few items softly so not to damage them to reveal an old book and he sat down in his desk chair and opened the book to reveals photos of young adults all smiling or laughing in the pictures.
"Do you remember this, Fawkes?" the phoenix looked over to him as Albus held up the album "when young Lily gifted this to me for Christmas in 1979" Fawkes sang softly before flying over to the back of the chair to look at the album as well "Tom and his horrible blood war ruined so much of our history, they took so many lives and destroyed so many family lines simply cause they did not agree with his ideas" Albus whispered as Fawkes sang softly rubbing his head against Albus' shoulder.
Albus had a tear fall looking at the photos on the page, for on one page was a moving photo of a younger Lily Evans with her best friends Alice Greengrass, Amelia Bones and Marlene McKinnon, all of whom were giggling and standing in front of the Black Lake. While on the other page had four boys, James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew, they were in the Gryfinndor Common Room surround by pillows and blankets.
"So many lives destroyed and gone..." Albus muttered to himself again as he gave a glare to the photo of the boys mainly at Sirius Black "however... from the ashes there is hope rising in young Harry Potter, Neville Longbottom and now in the finding of young Mirabel Madrigal" Albus whispered as he closed the book and softly patted Fawkes getting to his feet and walking over to glance out over the lake.
Bruno's Tower
Casita
Encanto
20th of July, 1991
With his mind feeling the weight of remembering Marlene for their daughter, Bruno took Mirabel up to his old room to tell her fully about her mother and how he met her. As Bruno came around the corner and he stopped as he came face to face with his still darken room door.
"Papa?" Mirabel whispered and Bruno took a breath trying to steady his racing mind.
"I am fine, mi mariposita... just being back in front of my room... I was never a fan of my image" Bruno replied softly and he stepped forward which had Mirabel gasp in surprise, while Bruno swallowed as he watched the outlines of his image glow golden with a hint of emerald green.
Bruno took a breath before he stepped forward and opened his door entering his room for the first time in 6 years.
"WOW!" Mirabel whispered as she looked around while Bruno stood in shock, the last time he was in here there was sand everywhere and now there were comfy couches, a small kitchen then there were the stairs which led up to different doors. However it was to the left to where Mirabel and he stood that caught his eye, there in grounded pit was a sand pit.
"Casita? Did... did you change my room?" Bruno asked looking to the tiles at the door and tiles lifted slightly to shake left to right. Bruno wondered how his room changed and made a mental note to let his mother know that somehow his room changed.
"Your room is so nice, papa" Mirabel said softly as she looked around in awe before she walked over to the couches and Bruno looked at her before he joined her on the couches.
"It is so much better than it was before, your mother had to banish sand away from everything and there was a time where she was pregnant with you that she caused a small sand cyclone cause the sand was driving her mad" Bruno said remembering the curses that came from Marlene's mouth and there had been some that were in a different language that Marlene later told him was Scottish Gaelic.
Bruno and Mirabel sat in silence with neither knowing what to say and Bruno was about to speak when Mirabel spoke.
"Papa... why did you leave me? Was it because of me not getting a door? Was I a disappointment?" Mirabel whispered after a bit of silence and Bruno looked at her shocked before he moved slightly to face her and he softly grabbed her hands.
"No, mi mariposita... please never think that... it was not because you were not given a door or being a disappointment..." Bruno bit his lip before nodding in his mind "your Abuela demanded that I have a vision about why you never got a gift... I was lost in my mind wondering what happened to your mother that my mind barely remembered about her magic... so I had the vision... it was one that appeared strange to me, mi mariposita" Bruno whispered to her still holding her hands as Mirabel tilted her head slightly that reminded Bruno so much of Marlene that he felt tears forming.
"What was strange about?" Mirabel asked looking at Bruno before she looked down and slipped her hands out from Bruno.
"The reason why it was so strange, was due to it showing that you have two futures... however due to past events before you were born or even before I met your mother, the village and your abuela feared me as I saw a lot of bad outcomes..." Bruno swallowed remembering the fear running across his mind "I knew that if your abuela saw the vision plate, then she would only see the bad outcome and not tilt it ever so slightly to see the other outcome" Bruno explained and Mirabel glared at the ground before her eyes widen and she looked at him.
"So you left to protect me" Mirabel whispered looking at him with awe and Bruno nodded then Mirabel moved so quickly and jumped from her seat and jumped into her father's arms as tears fell from her eyes.
"Yes, I did and I will always be in your corner, you are mi mariposita" Bruno told her brushing his fingers through Mirabel's hair and he felt a tear fall and he felt Mirabel let go from the hug.
"Could you please tell me about mama?" Mirabel whispered with a small bite to her bottom lip and Bruno nodded with a soft smile.
"That was the main reason why I brought you here, so it is only mi mariposita and I..." Bruno smirked before he decided that Mirabel needed to laugh, so he tickled her making her giggle which was music to his ears and he stopped with a smile "so mi mariposita... what do you want to know first?" Bruno asked and Mirabel tilted her head before she smiled.
"How did you and mama meet?" Mirabel asked thinking the question over and it was one that kept popping up in her mind.
"I met your mother, when I had left Encanto..." Mirabel looked shocked before Bruno quickly cleared away the question in Mirabel's eyes "only for a short day trip... I wanted to go to the river, where your Abuelo gave his life for your abuela, tias and myself..." Bruno explained and he looked at the sand pit with a small thinking expression.
"How far is the river from here? Do you still go there?" Mirabel asked curiously and Bruno smiled at her.
"It is a good hours walk from the village, I started going to the river after I overheard Senora Gómez talking to Senor Guzmán about the journey and watching your abuela cry out with pain as mountains surrounded the group... I grew curious to know what was beyond the border, so when everyone was busy I left and found the spot... I would leave a simple orchid by the water that I would pick along the journey" Bruno explained and Mirabel looked down with a small bite to her bottom lip.
"Papa, could you take me there? So I too can pay my respects to Abuelo and those that were lost on the journey as well" Mirabel asked softly and Bruno nodded his head.
"I was thinking of taking you down there, maybe after we return from getting your books and things for school, then you and I can make the journey down there" Bruno replied before looking to the pit of sand with a small frown and Mirabel looked at him confused seeing the expression.
"Why are you looking to the pit of sand?" Mirabel asked tilting her head and Bruno turned to her with a bite to his bottom lip.
"I just had a memory hit me of your mother mention something about my power in passing while we were out on a date" Bruno replied and Mirabel looked at him with questioning eyes.
"What did mama mention?" Mirabel asked with pleading eyes and Bruno laughed.
"You know what, why don't I see if I can show you? See if she truly was correct in her theory" Mirabel nodded but with with a slight confused look in her eyes "follow me to the sand pit" Bruno stated and the father and daughter duo got up and walked over to the sand pit.
Bruno had Mirabel sit on the ground while he set up the small piles of sands and leaves, all of which had Mirabel watching him curiously and as he finished, he smiled at her as he sat opposite her.
"Hold my hands" Bruno said softly and Mirabel grabbed her father's hands.
Bruno closed his eyes and thought about how to use the sand to show his memories and then his memory of how he and Marlene first met entered his mind and he knew that Mirabel would enjoy seeing the memory.
Mirabel gasped softly as a small wind wind began forming from no where and then circle around them forming a dome like shape as emerald green steaks appeared on the walls and then to the amazement of Bruno who gasped the emerald green steaks turned light blue as the dome slowly finished forming around the two with the blue light flickering throughout the sand dome and Mirabel was in awe as a scene appeared on the wall of the dome.
Memory
It was early morning as Bruno walked through the jungle keeping close to the path and he came to the river. Bruno went to sit at the water's edge and bowed his head to pay his respect to his father's sacrifice, when he jumped as a loud crunch echoed around him and he slowly got to his feet to watch the tree line ready to run if something came at him knowing there were many dangerous animals that lived along the water bank.
"Damn it..." Bruno raised an eyebrow hearing a voice instead of a growl " where did that damn little devil put me? Note to self... never trust another port-key created by Sirius Black" Bruno looked confused hearing the strange sounding words and he watched as a dark brown haired woman walk pass the trees pulling leaves out of her hair.
"Miss, are you okay?" Bruno asked keeping alert for any predators near by and he watched as the woman squeaked in fright with a jump before she turned to face him.
"Sorry, I did not understand that, can you please repeat?"the young woman tilted her head a bit as Bruno copied with his own head tilted with a confused look in his eyes "oh dear... what was the spell... to help with understanding a different language... oh that is right..." Bruno watched as she pulled out a stick and pointed it to him "Interpretantur" Bruno got even more confused at whatever she said pointing the stick at him and then she pointed it to her " Interpretantur... can you understand me now?" the woman asked softly and Bruno looked shocked as his eyes widen.
"Who are you? How did you do that? What was that stick?" Bruno asked in the ramble and the woman rushed over and to his shock had placed her hand over his mouth.
"Sorry..." the young woman blushed seeing Bruno's eyes looking at her "but you were rambling without letting me answer you, my name is Marlene McKinnon and do you promise to keep a secret..." Bruno raised an eyebrow before moving his eyes to look down to where her hand still was and Marlene blushed deeper "oh... oh" Marlene removed her hand as she moved a stray piece of her away from her eyes "sorry about keeping my hand on your mouth like that" Marlene muttered with the blush still on her face as some of her hair moved to cover her left eye.
"No, it... it is fine... I can get into... into a bit of ramble when I get into a mind set... my sisters stop me the same way and yes I can keep a secret... before you ask my name is Bruno Madrigal" Bruno introduced himself and Marlene looked at him as she moved the hair away from her eye.
"It is nice to meet you Bruno and...and I cast a spell at you so I could understand you and you could understand me" Marlene explained with a small bite to her bottom lip and Bruno raised an eyebrow.
"Are you saying that you are a witch?" Bruno asked with a soft tone and Marlene nodded.
"Yes, I am...does that bother you?" Marlene asked looking at him and Bruno shook his head.
There was something about Marlene that drew Bruno in and wanted to tell her everything about his family and himself.
"Not at all... you see I am outcast in my home.. both in my family and in the village" Bruno replied before looked to the path that led back to his village then he nodded to himself feeling that he could trust Marlene, he couldn't explain why his gut was tell him to trust Marlene and so he sat down which Marlene followed with a questioning look in her eyes.
"How are you an outcast?" Marlene asked softly sensing that there was not a happy story to the reason and Bruno looked at her.
"My family and I are gifted, I am a triplet... my sister Pepa can control the weather through her emotions, while my other sister can heal with food" Bruno explained and then he blushed and Marlene looked amazed at Bruno before she frowned with a small tilt of her head.
"And what about you? What is your gift?" Marlene asked calmly and Bruno looked down to his hands before he sighed and he looked into her eyes.
"I can see the future via using sand that creates a dome around me and once I see the future, an emerald glass plate appears in my hands that show the outcome... a prophecy... as my mother calls them" Bruno explained watching as Marlene's eyes widen in shock and he wondered what it was about his gift that had that look on her face.
"That is a powerful gift, you should treasure the gift..." Bruno looked at her in shock which got Marlene curious as to why "can I ask how old are you? Also why are you shocked that I said your gift is powerful and to treasure it?" Marlene asked and Bruno smiled at her.
"I am 33 years old and the reason why is that no one has ever told me that... the village fears me and my gift... even my mother is wary of it..." Bruno stated as he looked down as Marlene softly grabbed on his hands and he looked at her.
"Well, they are wrong to fear you... the future is not truly set in stone and they can change what they see, for it is their choices that causes whatever you saw... can I ask have you gone ever into a trance like state and spoke?" Marlene asked softly and Bruno frowned.
"I am not sure, maybe...no one has ever told me... also... can I ask... even though it is not really a good question to ask a woman... but how old are you?" Bruno replied with a slightly serious expression on his face and Marlene smiled at him with a small giggle escaping.
"It is fine and I am 19 years old..." Bruno looked shocked "I know I look slightly older" Marlene said with a small giggle seeing his expression.
"No... it is not that, I don't look at the age... but I find it so easy and relaxing talking with you... there... there is something about you that drew me to tell you about my family and I" Bruno told her with a soft smile and Marlene nodded.
"I feel exactly the same" Marlene replied and Bruno looked to the river.
End of memory
Bruno felt the energy leave him as he looked down towards his hands and his eyes widen in shock seeing a light blue glass plate with the image of Marlene and him sitting by the river, then he felt relief that he was able to show Mirabel the memory of her mother. He wishes more than anything that he could tell Marlene that she was right about his gift being more than just future sight and now he vowed in his mind to train it up, to show more memories to Mirabel.
"Mama was so pretty" Mirabel whispered looking at the plate with awe and Bruno looked at Mirabel with a smile.
"She truly was..." Bruno smiled remembering Marlene then he looked to Mirabel "you want to know something?" Bruno asked with a smile and Mirabel looked at him.
"Of course" Mirabel answered with a smile and Bruno smiled at her.
"You have her kindness and her wit..." Bruno closed his eyes remembering Marlene's smile towards him "and she was the first one to truly accept my gift and me, then when you were born..." Bruno had a soft look in his eyes "I remember her saying that you were her little miracle..." Bruno said softly and Mirabel frowned looking down.
"Why was I her little miracle?" Mirabel asked looking back to Bruno and Bruno looked into her eyes.
"I will tell you why at a later date..." Mirabel looked sad "it is a tough subject to talk about, mariposa, but I promise to tell you when the time is right" Bruno told her and Mirabel looked down before sighing with a nod.
"Okay..." Mirabel bit her lip "is that the reason why she left us?" Mirabel whispered as a tear fell and Bruno pulled Mirabel over to him and hugged her.
"No... no, please don't ever think that..." Bruno had tears fall as he rocked softly side to side as Mirabel cried in his arms "mi querida mariposa, that would never be the reason she left us, I know that for a fact... when the those teachers return... we will find out what happened to her" Bruno whispered kissing the top of Mirabel's head closing his eyes as tears formed and he wished that Marlene was there with him raising their daughter alongside him.
"Tio Bruno? Can I come in?" a voice called out softly and Bruno opened his eyes and looked up to see Dolores standing there by the doorway looking nervous and he got to his feet helping Mirabel up as well.
"Of course, sobrina, you are always welcome in here" Bruno told her in a soft voice being mindful of Dolores' gift and Dolores smiled gratefully at him as she entered the room closing the door behind her.
While Bruno and Mirabel walked over to the couch as Dolores sat down looking nervous which got Bruno concerned seeing the slight shaking of her hands.
"Tio, can I ask you a question?" Dolores asked softly to which he nodded as he watched Dolores clenched her hands on her skirt and he got a concerned look in his eyes.
"Of course you can, Dolores" Bruno replied with concern in his voice and Dolores took another deep breath before looking straight into his eyes.
"Could you please look into my future again?" Dolores asked with pleading eyes and Bruno looked at her with shock.
"Dolores, I remember what happened last time and your mama was so furious with me..." Bruno took a breath closing his eyes before he opened them again and he saw Dolores looking at him with a pleading look "why do you want me to look into your future again?" Bruno asked with a shocked tone and Dolores looked down.
"I remember as well, however you and I both know that the future is always changing due to our choices and the things we do, I can see how Isabela is and I have heard her muttering that she is doing this for abuela and cause she is the oldest... you have always said that the future is not set in stone" Dolores explained softly and Bruno looked to Mirabel.
"Papa, please... do it for Dolly" Mirabel whispered looking at Bruno with pleading eyes and Bruno looked back to Dolores.
"Alright... if... if you are sure that this is what you want... however, please do not blame me if it has turned bad or even if it is the same" Bruno told his sobrina calmly and Dolores looked happy then shook her head.
"I promise I won't ever blame you, tio Bruno... I know mama blamed you for the future, but I never did... you can not control what you see or even what someone's future has in store for them" Dolores stated and Bruno looked to Mirabel.
"Stay around here, don't come near the dome when it is active, you could get hurt from the sand or energy that is flowing" Bruno told Mirabel softly and she nodded in agreement.
"Oh damn it... that professor is back and she brought company... there are two extra people with her" Dolores stated looking upset and Bruno got to his feet and walked over to her.
"I promise that later on, that we will check on your future" Bruno told his sobrina with a hand on her shoulder and she nodded with a smile.
"Thank you, Tio Bruno" Dolores whispered and Bruno hugged her.
"No... thank you for keeping Mirabel happy and being there for her" Bruno whispered to her and Dolores hugged him back.
"Papa, Dolly... are you okay?" Mirabel asked looking confused and Bruno let go of his niece and went over to his daughter.
"We are okay, mi mariposita" Bruno told her and the three left the room and headed down the stairs.
Downstairs
Minutes earlier
Alma was in shock that her youngest granddaughter had a gift, but it was a gift that was so different from the others that she wondered what the future had in store for Mirabel and it scared her that she did not know. She wanted to order Bruno to look and see if Mirabel's gift was a danger to the way of life here.
"Mama, are you alright?" Julieta asked getting Alma's attention as she held a plate of arepa con quesos out for Alma, who took one and took a small bite, however before Alma could speak another spoke.
"Well, I am shocked at everything that was revealed and that Bruno was here the whole time, hidden in the walls of Casita... I can not believe that Dolores never told us" Felix stated as he softly rocked Antonio to sleep.
"Felix, you do remember that Bruno was always calming presence for her, he never did loud noises and even made sure that she was alright if there was loud sounds from a party or anything... even Marlene made sure to be quiet" Pepa replied softly with a small cloud forming above her and everyone looked surprised to the red headed triplet.
Marlene was a bit of a forbidden name due her leaving Bruno and Mirabel, but now there might be something more to her disappearance.
"Abuela... are you okay?" Isabela asked looking concerned and Alma looked to her oldest grandchild.
"I... I am not sure, I feel... I don't know" Alma whispered feeling lost in her emotions and before anyone else could say anything else, there was crack which scared Camilo causing him to shift in to different forms and also caused Antonio to cry.
Alma saw that the strange woman was back and there were two strangers with her, however before she speak Minerva smiled at her family.
"Greetings Madrigal family..." Minerva looked around with a frown "oh... where are Mirabel and her father?" Minerva asked as Castia waved her tiles as the new comers which had the old man looking around with amazement, while the other woman raised an eyebrow at the tiles moving and Alma took sense there was power within the man and the woman.
"Hello madam McGonagall and guests" Bruno greeted as he came down the stairs followed by Mirabel and Dolores. The old man walked over to Bruno and Mirabel as Dolores went to stand with Isabela. The other woman stood next to Minerva McGonagall and both watched the man.
"Hello there Mr Madrigal and young miss Madrigal... it is truly a pleasure meeting you both, my name is Albus Dumbledore and I am the headmaster of Hogwarts" the man introduced himself as Mirabel tilted her head looking at him, her eyes looking at Albus' beard.
"How do you not eat your beard?" Mirabel stated calmly which had Bruno, Dolores, Camilo and Felix chuckling at the blunt statement from the young girl, while the others looked shocked at the lack of manners.
"Mirabel, that is not something you ask when you first meet them and you four calm down" Alma told her granddaughter sharply and Mirabel looked down, while the laughing four stopped laughing as Mirabel glanced up into Albus' eyes
"Sorry sir... hello sir, it is nice to meet you and sorry again about the lack of manners" Mirabel said softly and Dumbledore smiled at her with a small chuckle.
"It is quite alright, Miss Madrigal... I get questions and comments like that all the time from students when they first arrive at the school... in fact your mother even had a funny question about my beard when she was your age" Albus stated and the other woman giggled while Minerva sighed heavily.
"I remember the comment as well..." the strange woman giggled "forgive me for not introducing myself, I am Poppy Pomfrey and I am the healer at Hogwarts, but more importantly I was your mother's godmother" Poppy stated getting a look of awe from Mirabel.
"Really, so you can tell me about my mama when she was small before she met papa" Mirabel whispered with excitement and Poppy nodded with a smile.
"What was Marlene comment about your beard?" Bruno asked curiously and Minerva giggled again.
"Marlene was nearly 11 years old and had become quite sassy with comments, learning them from her god-brother Xenophilius Lovegood, she came right up to me and asked Albus... sir, are you sure that you don't have a bird hiding within your beard cause your beard looks like a bird's nest" Poppy stated and that got Mirabel giggling with Camilo falling to the ground.
"Yes, I have I got a few days of teasing from these two as well as a few others..." once the giggling calmed down "I am here mainly to tell you what happened to Marlene and also what it means for young Mirabel if she decides to come to Hogwarts" Dumbledore said calmly and everyone watched amazed as he waved his wand and three chairs appeared from no where.
Everyone saw how grave Albus had become as he sat down and looked sadly to Mirabel and Bruno. Dread filled Alma's heart seeing that look and she prayed that she was wrong.
"Could... what... what happened to Marlene?" Bruno asked as he sat down on the lounge and Mirabel sat next to him hugging him.
"Before I tell you about what happened to Miss McKinnon... well... I guess Mrs Madrigal" Albus looking at Bruno who looked down to the faint ring impression on his finger "I need to tell what was happening around that time... for 11 years the Wizarding World was under constant threat and danger from a man going by Lord Voldemort... he was wiping away many powerful family lines making many families extinct... then on the 6th of August, 1981... I got word that Marlene had returned to the Wizarding World... at the time I was not sure what she was doing, but only 24 hours later... i am sorry to say that Voldemort killed Marlene and her family himself..." Bruno's eyes filled with tears as his two sisters ran over and hugged him while the young woman that came down with Bruno and Mirabel ran over to Mirabel and hugged her "I am sorry that was the news that I brought with me" Albus stated as tears formed in eyes remembering seeing the body and even telling Lily, Amelia and Alice the news about their best friend, he watched the family comfort the father and daughter.
Both Minerva and Poppy looked down as tears fell, Poppy remembering the break down and scream that she let out after hearing the news that her god-daughter and family were dead, never knowing about Bruno or Mirabel. While Minerva remembered running to down to the Hospital Wing to be with her best friend.
"Thank.. thank you for telling us..." Alma said with emotion slipping into her tone as she watched her son and granddaughter get hugged by different family members. Alma promised to herself to give Bruno and Mirabel a hug later on.
"What happened to Voldemort?" Albus looked to the man wearing glasses and Albus got a flash of James Potter in his mind only this man had neat black hair and chocolate brown eyes "I want to know... if Mirabel will truly be safe going to your school" the man stated looking at him before his eyes looked to Poppy and Minerva.
Albus saw everyone look to him even though Bruno, who still had tears in his eyes and wanted the answer.
"I promise you that Mirabel will be safe within the hallowed halls of Hogwarts, however there is more I wish to inform you of and it starts with Halloween in 1981..." Albus took a breath "that night, Voldemort was killed, when he went after Marlene's best friend's family... he first murdered James Potter before going after Lily who had tried to escape with her son..." Pepa and Julieta looked horrified "Voldemort killed Lily and he turned to little Harry, he cast the killing curse, but something happened and his spell turned itself to him and killed him..." Pepa hugged Camilo close to her while Bruno hugged Mirabel "I will be honest with you all... I do not believe that he is fully gone and I swear here and now that Hogwarts will be a safe house for all... for when Voldemort returns" Albus informed the family and the man glanced to Bruno.
Julieta noticed Poppy and Minerva look to each other in shock at hearing what Albus had told them and then even more shocked at the promise he made.
While the two women knew that the man kept things close to the chest and that he had many secrets, but they truly were looking surprised that he would reveal his thoughts on Voldemort and then Poppy looked to the family.
"Before you decide, you should know that Marlene's best friend's children well niece in the case of Amelia will be starting this year, Mirabel will be in safe hands and I will fight to keep her safe as well" Poppy stated calmly hoping to get her god-daughter's daughter within Hogwarts and Bruno nodded.
"I am sorry to rush forward, but Albus and I need to know if young Mirabel wants to come to Hogwarts" Minerva told the family and everyone looked to the young girl who bit her lip as tears fell from her eyes.
"Mira... the choice to attend Hogwarts is yours... not mine, it is yours to make" Bruno whispered looking to his daughter and Mirabel looked to her family members and then to the teachers.
"I... I... I want to...to know about my mother and... and her life... and meet her best friends, also make friends my own age" Mirabel stated and Bruno smiled sadly at his daughter.
"Very well, Mirabel..." Alma took a breath "what do we do now?" Alma asked looking at the three teachers from Hogwarts and the three looked at her.
"Now, we get young Miss Madrigal's supplies for the coming school year, where is the letter?" Minerva stated calmly and everyone looked to the letter where it was on the kitchen table. Camilo walked over to it and grabbed it before walking back over to the group.
"I was wondering, where do you go to get all these things?" he asked looking to the teachers holding the letter to his chest and Isabela walked over to him grabbing the letter softly and handing it over to Bruno who smiled at her, while Camilo pouted and stuck his tongue at his eldest prima.
"Everything we need can be found at Diagon Alley and before you ask, the Alley is hidden from sight within the city of London" Albus replied with a smiled watching the family and the family looked shocked.
"How would we be getting there?" Dolores asked with a tilt of her head and the teachers looked to each other.
"You all want to come" Minerva asked with surprise and Pepa got up.
"I won't be able to go, I am needed now in the fields and someone will need to be here in Casita with Antonio" Pepa stated and Alma nodded as well.
"Pepa is correct..." Luisa, Dolores and Camilo looked ready to argue, while Isabela just looked away "I know you all want to support Bruno and Mirabel, but the village will need some of us here" Alma stated and the three sighed heavily.
"Well... no matter what, I will be going with Mirabel... the village still believe and think I am not in Encanto anyway, so maybe we can use this to trick the village into thinking you guys found me on your trip, I can already see the arguments if the village find out I was in the walls the whole time" Bruno stated calmly and everyone looked at him.
"I can see that happening as well, Bruno... would it be alright with you if Julieta and I come with you and help carry things as the list was quite large" Agustin requested looking to his wife and Bruno looked to his brother in law and sister.
"Please papa, can Tio Agustin and Tia Julieta come with us?" Mirabel pleaded with puppy eyes and Bruno nodded as Agustin and Julieta smiled at their niece.
"You helped raised Mirabel and you were both there for her... while I hid away" Bruno replied with a small bite to his bottom lip and Julieta walked over to hug her brother.
"I will always be there for you" Julieta whispered and Bruno hugged her back.
"Very well, grab whatever you need and we shall be off" Minerva stated and she watched as the young woman that came into the room with Bruno and Mirabel, helped Mirabel to her feet.
"Come on, Mira... let's get a few things" she said and the two walked off.
"I have everything I need" Bruno stated looking at his outfit and Minerva nodded.
"By the way, what are your names? Also how did you and Marlene meet?" Albus asked looking to the family then to Bruno and Alma introduced everyone then Bruno explained how Marlene and he had met, which had shocked his family, not knowing the full story that he had gone to the river where Pedro gave his life to protect his wife, children and the villagers.

Chapter Four
Mirabel's Room (AKA the Nursery)
Casita
Encanto, Colombia
The two primas entered Mirabel's room and Mirabel went to sit on the bed as Dolores closed the door softly.
"Dolores... I..." Mirabel spoke softly and Dolores looked over to her, she saw Mirabel biting her lip which caused Dolores a bit of worry.
"Mira... what is it?" Dolores asked softly as she walked over and knelt in front of her youngest prima.
"Dolores... I am scared, I will be alone at school and papa will be here... where so many hate and fear him... all because he wanted to protect me" Mirabel started to cry and Dolores got to her feet and sat next to Mirabel and hugged her close to her.
"Mirabel, it is alright to fear the unknown and the villagers will have me helping your papa out and cutting off any of the mean and horrible comments... if you like I can get Camilo to prank any truly mean villagers till they stop" Dolores told Mirabel, who giggled before hiccuping and then took a deep breath.
"I am so sorry... for being such a pain" Mirabel whispered as a tear fell and Dolores softly gasped before wiping the tear away.
"Mira, you are not a pain to me nor will you ever be a pain or anything of the like, you have always respected my gift, never being too loud and you have been so helpful to me, I am so proud of you, Mirabel" Dolores told her firmly in a soft tone with a small smile.
"Thank you for always being there for me" Mirabel replied giving Dolores a hug and Dolores kissed the top of Mirabel's head.
"We better get your bag and then head down, you can tell me everything about the trip when you return, I bet you will see so many amazing things that it will become your heaven" Dolores told her and Mirabel nodded as she got up from the bed and grabbed her bag.
5 minutes later, the two headed back down the stairs to where the family and teachers were waiting for Mirabel.
"Good, I was about to send Felix up to get you two..." Mirabel looked down while Dolores gave their abuela a small glare "Mirabel, please be good and listen to the teachers as well as your father, your aunt and uncle" Alma stated firmly and Mirabel nodded.
"At most we should be about 3 hours in total to get everything" Minerva informed Alma and Alma nodded.
"I understand, but if you are later than 3 hours... may I ask how you would send word back to us? Cause I would like to know what time to get dinner sorted out" Alma asked with an eyebrow raise and Albus smiled with a twinkle in his eye.
"Fawkes" Albus stated simply and then everyone jumped as a bird on fire appeared and Mirabel gasped in awe.
"Fénix..." her family looked at her wondering how she knew what the creature was "oh, you are truly stunning and beautiful" she whispered in shock and Albus looked at Mirabel with an expression no one could read.
"Miss Madrigal? How do you know what Fawkes is?" Minerva asked speaking for everyone and then gasped in awe as Mirabel bowed her head low to Fawkes.
"I... I had a dream... a while back, there was this man and he told me about them... he tells me a lot of interesting things, but I found an interest in phoenixes..." everyone looked confused while Bruno was concerned "greetings..." Mirabel looked to Dumbledore "Fawkes?" he nodded as he watched in amazement as Fawkes allowed Mirabel to pat him.
"Mira, who was the man that told you about them?" Bruno asked concerned and Mirabel looked to her father.
"He never told me his name and he stayed in the shadows of the dream... seeing Fawkes brought the memory of the dream back... he taught me about many creatures and even..." Mirabel frowned as she thought about the dreams "he told me I was destined for something else... something powerful and he always told me that he was proud of me" Mirabel whispered and Albus looked concerned.
"Mirabel, please tell me, if you have any more of these dreams" Bruno pleaded falling to his knees looking into his daughter's eyes and Mirabel nodded as Fawkes trilled which shocked the rest of the Madrigal family.
"Phoenixes are truly amazing creatures, they can carry immensely heavy loads, their tears have healing powers and they make highly faithful pets" Albus explained as he walked over to Fawkes who was looking at Mirabel with a small head tilt and Albus could tell that the phoenix would become close to Mirabel.
As Albus looked at young Mirabel, he was caught in a memory of when Fawkes first met Marlene, who had come to the school with her father to talk about updating the brooms and Marlene was only 8 years old and he got a small smile on his face remembering the giggling Marlene playing hide and seek with Fawkes.
"Albus?" Albus was taken out of the memory "are you alright?" Poppy asked as everyone was looking at him with various looks.
"Yes, just... just remembering when Marlene first met Fawkes" Albus replied with a smile towards Mirabel who tilted her head.
"My mother... How old was she? Can you please tell me what happened?" Mirabel asked looking excited about learning of her mother and Albus chuckled softly before looking at everyone.
"Your mother was only 8 years old, when she first met Fawkes..." Albus started patting Fawkes softly on the head "Marlene had come to the school with her father, who had come with the request to update the school brooms seeing as his eldest would be starting that year..." Albus smiled hearing the echoes of the giggles enter his mind "your mother grew bored at meeting, kicking her feet and pouting while looking around... however, during that time she spotted Fawkes, who had just return from a hunt or off on an errand, well Marlene decided that Fawkes would be a great playmate to play hide and seek with... I still have the echoes of that time within my mind and it always brings a smile to my day" Albus told Mirabel who looked at Fawkes who bopped his head and Mirabel smiled softly at him.
"I wish I could have seen mama as a little girl" Mirabel whispered and Albus smiled at her.
"Magic is truly wonderful, I can show you the memory if you like..." Albus caught the eye of Minerva, who had an eyebrow raise before looking to his wrist where his watch was and he gave a small acknowledgement with his eyes "however, it might be best till you are at school and on the weekend as it is time for us to head off to go and get your things for school" Albus stated with a small smile as Minerva and Poppy looked at each with small fond smiles.
"Well then..." shaking her head at Albus "shall we go" Minerva asked looking around as Bruno got to his feet and he nodded.
"Can I ask... how are we getting to London?" Julieta asked curiously and Albus smiled at her before looking to Fawkes.
"Fawkes, would it be alright to take us to London and return here?" Fawkes nodded his head and waved his tail "Please grab onto Fawkes' tail" Albus told them and those going grabbed onto the tail and then in a flash of fire the group was gone.
"Mama, they will be alright, right?" Camilo told seeing that his mother was looking nervous, however she was gently rocking Antonio side to side and she smiled at her eldest son.
"They will be alright, Cami" Pepa whispered giving Camilo a kiss on the head as he hugged her.
"Well, let's start helping the village" Alma told her family and Pepa nodded as she handed Antonio to Felix.
"Be good for your papa" Pepa whispered kissing her youngest baby on the forehead and Antonio giggled.
"Dolores, please alert us when they return..." Dolores nodded "I will be down to the village shortly" Alma watched as her daughter and grandchildren leave towards the village, while Felix headed up to the Nursery and Alma glanced to the candle.
'I swear Pedro, that I will do better by our youngest nieta... give me time to get this shock out of the way' Alma said in her mind and closed her eyes praying that she could keep her promise.
London, England
Albus, Minerva, Bruno, Julieta, Agustin and Mirabel appeared a flash of fire in an alley way as Fawkes thrilled softly before flying to sit on a small bike rail looking at the group.
"I am sorry to do this, but I need to head off and go over to Saint Mungos to check on my patients there..." Poppy looked to Mirabel "I would love to come by and chat with you even show you memories of your mother, when I can..." Poppy smiled "once you get to Hogwarts, we can chat when the hospital wing is not too busy" Poppy stated and Mirabel smiled with a nod.
"Thank you for coming" Mirabel stated and Poppy smiled at her before she disappeared from sight with a pop.
"What was that popping called again?" Julieta asked looking between the two teachers and Minerva smiled at her.
"That is called Apparition, when you are 17 you can apply for your Apparating licence, however not everyone decides to get the licence as there are other ways to get around" Minerva replied and Mirabel frowned before shaking her head.
"I do not like the pop sound and I know if I get it the popping might hurt Dolores" Mirabel stated calmly and Bruno looked proud of his daughter while Agustin and Julieta looked at each other with small smiles proud of their sobrina.
"You could make the pop silent, but for that you have to train in controlling it and keeping focus" Minerva revealed and Mirabel bit her lip.
"I will think on it, but I feel that it might not be the best for me" Mirabel replied looking into the two teachers eyes and they nodded with understanding.
"Well, you have plenty of time to decide on your mode of transportation" Minerva replied and Mirabel looked happy at that.
"It would best to head off to the alley and get everything that you need for the coming school year..." Albus turned to look at Fawkes with a smile "thank you, Fawkes for bringing us safety to London, I will call for you when it is time to return them back home" Albus told him and Fawkes disappeared in flames.
"Actually Albus, before we head into the Alley, I forgot to inform you that I need to go and find out if another young girl wants to come to Hogwarts" Minerva stated looking to Albus and he nodded in his head in understanding.
"Could we come with you, it would be nice for Mirabel to meet someone her own age that is not family nor someone that is a bully..." Mirabel gasped before looking down in shame "Mira, Dolores told me about those horrible children and I am so sorry I never did anything or even come out from hiding" Bruno stated and Mirabel shook her head.
"I...I don't blame you, papa" Mirabel stated quietly and Bruno hugged her however in his mind he blamed himself for not being brave and leaving the walls to protect his one and only child.
"We best head off" Minerva stated and Bruno let her of Mirabel before kissing her on the forehead.
Minerva led the group only a few streets away to a street where the houses were joined at the walls and looked thin with not a lot of room.
"What type of houses are these?" Bruno asked looking to each side having never left Encanto and seen only the building in the valley where everyone had a small space between buildings.
"These are townhouses" Minerva answered looking at them briefly and Julieta looked around the street.
"They have no space between them and it looks like there is not a lot of room for a large family" Agustin muttered and Minerva glanced at him.
"It is true that they look like that, but they were built to maximize living space with minimize frontage" Minerva replied and the Madrigals frowned.
"Well, at least they serve a purpose even if it makes them feel cramp" Bruno muttered under his breath and Minerva looked at him.
"Here we are" Minerva announced seeing the house where young Hermione Granger lived and the group followed her up the steps.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Coming" a man called out from deeper within and then there was a shuffle behind as the door opened to a beautiful woman with chocolate brown hair tied in a pony-tail.
"Good afternoon Madam, you have returned for Hermione's answer" the woman replied with a smile and Minerva nodded.
"Indeed, it is also your choice to let her come to Hogwarts, you are her mother" Minerva replied and the woman smiled at Minerva.
"Come on in... who are they?" the woman asked looking at Albus, Agustin, Julieta, Bruno and Mirabel.
"This is Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts" Minerva introduced and the woman smiled at him.
"It is nice to meet you, sir, I am Charlotte Granger" Charlotte introduced herself and Albus smiled at her.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, I normally do not do house calls, preferring to get things finalize for the upcoming school year... however young Mirabel is a special case" Albus told her looking to Mirabel who blushed before looking down and Charlotte smiled at the young girl.
"Mum, is everything alright?" the group looked over as another young girl with bushy light brown hair and eyes entered the small foyer.
"Yes, everything is alright... is your father trying to finish the cooking again?" Charlotte asked with a small shake of her head as the young girl nodded.
"Charlie, I am not that bad..." Charlotte smiled softly as a man walked into view and the group saw he had dark blonde hair "oh, Madam McGonagall... are you here for Hermione's answer?" the man asked walking over and Minerva nodded.
"I am, I will be also escorting Mirabel and her family to Diagon Alley" Minerva told him and the man smiled.
"Are you a miyyle born as well?" Mirabel giggled as Hermione sighed and Bruno smiled seeing his daughter giggling "I got that wrong... didn't I?" the man replied with a small pout and Hermione smiled at her father.
"It was muggle born, dad" Hermione told him with a smile.
"Sorry" the man said and Charlotte shook her head.
"Shall we sit down in the lounge" they nodded and Charlotte led the group into another room "I am so sorry, but... what... what are your names?" Charlotte asked everyone calmly sat down and Hermione's father went into another room and before returning.
"Just turned off the oven and opened the door" the man stated and Charlotte nodded with a grateful smile.
"It is nice to meet the three of you, I am Julieta Madrigal and this is my husband Agustin Gracia Madrigal" Julieta said with a smile to her husband, who smiled back.
"I'm Bruno Madrigal and this is my daughter Mirabel" Bruno introduced himself and placed a hand softly on Mirabel's shoulder.
"It is nice to meet you all, sorry for not introducing myself earlier, but my name is Adrian" the man introduced himself and Agustin smiled at him, he could see himself being friends with the man and he hoped to have Bruno and Felix join him.
"Miss Granger, may I know your answer about joining Hogwarts?" Minerva asked softly and Hermione looked to her parents.
"My parents and I discussed it and I will like to go to Hogwarts" Hermione answered and Minerva smiled.
"Then here you go..." Minerva pulled out a piece of parchment and Hermione took it "this is the supply list that you will need to get" Minerva stated and Hermione handed the list to her mother, who read the list and frowned.
"We can get all of this in London" Charlotte asked looking to the two Hogwarts staff and Albus smiled.
"Indeed, we can" Albus stated with a smile.
"How are we to pay for tuition? And her supplies?" Adrian asked with a worried look as Charlotte handed him the list.
"I have the firm belief that you are descended from a squid line, so you might be able to get some money via an heritage test... before you ask there was a famous potion master with the surname of Granger with the joined surname of Dagworth" Albus stated and Adrian looked surprised.
"How do we find that out?" Hermione asked before her father could and Albus smiled at her.
"It is a test that Gringotts can preform, I would be happy to pay for your test" Albus told her and they nodded.
"That is nice for you to offer, Headmaster" Charlotte told him and Albus waved her off.
"It is a gift and tuition is free at Hogwarts" Albus stated and the Granger family smiled gratefully at him.
"Well, we best head off to the Alley and get young Miss Madrigal and Miss Granger their things" Minerva stated and everyone nodded.
"Where is the Alley? How are we getting there?" Hermione asked as the group left the house and Adrian locked the door behind him.
"We can easily walk, it is always best to show the entry point for new comers into the Wizarding World" Minerva answered and Hermione looked impressed.
As the group walked towards the Alley, Hermione decided to get to know her new classmate and she walked over to where Mirabel was walking with her father.
"Mirabel, where do you live?" Hermione asked looking to the girl who looked at her startled.
"Encanto, Colombia" Mirabel answered and Hermione tilted her head.
"Where is Encanto?" Hermione asked and Mirabel looked to her dad.
"Encanto is located in the mountains of Colombia, you would not find us on a map for Encanto is protected" Bruno explained and Hermione looked interested.
"Protected how?" Hermione asked and Bruno looked to Mirabel.
"Mira, you can tell the story" Bruno told her and Mirabel looked unsure.
"It will be okay, Mira, Abuela does not have to know" Julieta told her and the Granger family looked curious.
"Long ago, when my abuela and abuelo with my papa and tias as well as some villagers were escaping from bandits, my abuelo gave his life to protect my abuela, my dad and aunts... with his sacrifice the valley was blessed with magic as well as mountains for protection, only few outsiders have entered since" Mirabel explained and Hermione looked in awe.
"What does Abuela, Abuelo and tias mean?" Hermione asked and Mirabel looked at her.
"Abuela means Grandmother, Abuelo means Grandfather and tias means aunts in Spanish" Mirabel replied and Hermione looked to Bruno and Julieta.
"I thought your father and Augustin were brothers" Hermione asked looking to the two men.
"It is Agustin, no 'u' between the 'a' and 'g'" Agustin told her with a soft smile and Hermione blushed.
"Oh.. sorry" Hermione whispered and Agustin smiled at her.
"It is alright, you are only young and still learning, anyway when I moved to Encanto and met Julieta then marrying into the Madrigal I took her surname mainly in honour of Pedro Madrigal's sacrifice and keeping the village safe" Agustin explained and Hermione looked in awe.
"That is amazing, so you were one of the outsiders" Hermione said and Agustin nodded.
"When I first arrived, neither my father nor I were trusted in the village, many of the older people gave my father dirty looks..." Julieta rubbed her husband's arm "then about 3 years of moving to Encanto, my father became gravely ill due to an old injury and before Julieta could come and help... my father passed away in the night, I had run into the forest and long story short, Julieta found me and she helped me grieve for my father" Agustin explained and Mirabel looked down having heard the story growing up.
"Do you have any children?" Charlotte asked and Julieta smiled at her.
"We have two girls; Isabela and Luisa" Julieta told her and Hermione looked to Bruno.
"I just have Mirabel, my wife... she died, I only found out recently... my story is not a good one" Bruno told her and Hermione tilted her head before she nodded.
"Any other children?" Adrian asked and Julieta nodded.
"My sister Pepa has three children; Dolores, Camilo and Antonio" Julieta replied with a soft smile and Charlotte smiled at her.
"Do you all live together?" Charlotte asked and Julieta nodded.
"Our home is the largest in Encanto, you are most welcome to come and see Casita before Hermione and Mirabel head off for school" Julieta stated knowing that she would deal with her mother about strangers in the valley.
"We have arrived" Albus stated and the group looked around seeing nothing special before Hermione frowned and tilted her head.
"That pub was not there three weeks ago" Hermione said pointing to a tiny, grubby-looking pub that to the surprise of the Madrigals and Grangers, everyone was just rushing pass it and not paying it any mind and Mirabel looked confused.
"You are right, how did we never notice that before?" Adrian asked looking to the two teachers and Albus smiled at him.
"There are many wards around the pub and the area beyond it, however the main one is called muggle-repelling, so muggles do not find out about the magical world and there is an extra spell weaving within the ward that allowed muggle-born witches and wizards to see the pub when they are first taken there by a member of Hogwarts and that they do not find the pub before the right time" Albus explained and Hermione looked amazed.
"That is so cool, what types of wards are there?" Hermione asked looking excited and Albus looked to Minerva who nodded remembering another certain student asking the same question.
"Hundreds, some sadly have been lost in time" Minerva replied and Albus smiled at Minerva.
"Before we head to the bank, I would like to point out that when you enter the bank you will not see human tellers but that of Goblins, they run the bank and do not tolerate fools and need to be treated with respect, however you may be able to see other witches and wizards being short with them..." Minerva looked at Albus sharply "anyway we best head in and you might see what happens when you do not treat them with respect" Albus stated calmly and everyone nodded.
"Let's head in and get everything done, I will need to return home soon to help around the village" Julieta stated and Agustin nodded.
The group entered the pub and Mirabel saw that it was very dark and shabby inside and behind the bar stood a man that was quite bald and looked like a toothless walnut. The low buzz of chatter stopped when they walked in.
"Welcome Headmaster, Professor McGonagall, is it that time of year again" the bartender asked and Albus nodded.
"Indeed it is... " Albus looked to the two girls with a smile "this is Tom, he is the barkeep here at the Leaky Cauldron, if you find yourselves staying here or even wanting something to eat, Tom can help you" Albus told the group and Tom nodded.
"Always happy to help and enjoy your first visit to the Alley, girls" Tom stated looking at Hermione and Mirabel.
"Thank you" Hermione and Mirabel said together and soon the group followed Minerva to a back room and watched as Albus tapped a brink and then the wall started to open up.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley, now as you know we shall be off to Gringotts first and that is the white building at the end of the Alley" Albus informed them and he led them down the alley as both Mirabel and Hermione looked around in awe.
"Papa" Mirabel whispered looking back to the animal store and Bruno looked to Julieta, who bite her lip and Bruno nodded in understanding.
"We will see" Bruno told her and Mirabel nodded as the group reached the snowy white building that towered over the other little shops.
Standing beside its burnished bronze doors, wearing a uniform of scarlet and gold stood a goblin and Mirabel looked at the being with amazement. Then to the amazement of Minerva who was just besides that young girl watched as Mirabel bowed her head to the goblin and Bruno too bowed giving respect to the being.
"Enter, stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed,
For those who take, but do not earn,
Must pay most dearly in their turn.
So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours,
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more than treasure there" Hermione read out loud and Mirabel tilted her head.
"I like it" Mirabel stated with a smile and Bruno chuckled before looking to Agustin who nodded.
"Same" Hermione replied and the two girls smiled at each other.
Charlotte, Adrian, Bruno, Julieta and Agustin were happy that the two girls were getting along and they hoped the two would become friends.
Albus led the group into the bank and went to an empty counter.
"Good day, I have two young witches to take an inheritance test" Albus stated and the goblin nodded.
"Please follow me to the inheritance room" the goblin stated and the group followed the goblin down a hallway and then they came to a door.
"Bonedagger, what are you doing away from your post?" another goblin growled opening the door.
"I shall be returning to my post shortly, Ragnok... I needed to escort this group to your office" the goblin stated and Ragnok looked to the group.
"Very welll, return to your post Bonedagger" Bondedagger nodded and left "come on in" Ragnok stated and the group entered.
"Greetings Ragnok, it is good to see you again" Albus stated as he and everyone took their seats then Ragnok closed the door.
"You as well, Albus Dumbledore, how may I help you today?" Ragnok asked getting to his seat and Albus looked to Mirabel and Hermione.
"We are here to see if Miss Madrigal has been left a vault by her mother and we are also here to find out if young Miss Granger is descended from any squid lines" Albus explained and Ragnok nodded.
"Very well" Ragnok grabbed a few things from below the desk and Albus looked to the young girls.
"Which one would like to go first?" Albus asked and Mirabel looked at Hermione
"I will, if that is alright with you Hermione" Mirabel said and Hermione nodded.
"We only need 7 drops of blood" Ragnok stated and pricked Mirabel's finger and let 7 drops fall onto the parchment. The group watched as black fancy letters formed.

"Oh... this is... oh my" Minerva stated with shock while Albus looked at the young girls with awe and then he saw their confusion.
"Rowena Ravenclaw, Helga Hufflepuff are two of the founders of Hogwarts" the girls looked shocked "I want you both to hide these results, destroy them even" Albus stated calmly and the girls nodded before handing them to Ragnok.
"I will issue their keys and then destroy these pages myself" Ragnok stated and Albus nodded his head in thanks.
Ragnok left the room as the Grangers looked over the results.
"Who is this Dagworth-Granger?" Adrian asked looking over the results and Minerva looked to him.
"Hector Dagworth-Granger was the founder of the Most Extraordinary Society of Potioneers, he was also known for finding out that love potions only induce powerful infatuations and that no potion would break true love" Albus explained and Hermione looked amazed.
"That is truly amazing" Hermione whispered and her parents nodded.
"What does it mean with Andrew's name? True name hidden?" Charlotte asked looking at Albus and Minerva.
"This Andrew might just be a wizard in hiding, there are many of them from the war and none have come out of hiding due to fear of Voldemort's followers" Albus explained and Charlotte bit her lip.
"No, don't even think about it Charlie, as the headmaster said Andrew might be fearful of the followers" Adrian stated calmly and Charlotte sighed.
"But would my sister even know? What if Andrew was part of the followers and are just lying in wait? Is Anthony even his brother?" Charlotte replied and Hermione looked to her parents.
"I suggest that you don't" Minerva stated and Adrian nodded while Charlotte caught Hermione's eye before giving the barest nod.
Ragnok returned and went back to his seat.
"Here are your keys to the vaults, make sure you keep them safe and if they get stolen or you misplace them, it is one gallon to replace the key" Ragnok told them and the girls nodded.
"Papi, could you keep it safe?" Mirabel asked looking to her father and Bruno nodded.
"Of course, mi mariposita" Bruno told her and Hermione looked at Bruno.
"What does me mari..mariposa mean?" Hermione asked and Mirabel blushed at the question.
"Very close, mi mariposita means my little butterfly... while mariposa just means butterfly" Bruno told her and Hermione smiled before looking to Mirabel, who was blushing.
"When we get to Hogwarts could you teach me Spanish?" Hermione asked kindly to Mirabel's shock, she had thought Hermione might make fun of her nickname and Mirabel looked to Hermione and nodded.
"I would be happy to" Mirabel told her and Julieta smiled at Agustin and then to Bruno.
"It is always good to learn new languages, do you know any other language currently?" Julieta asked her and Hermione blushed.
"Thank you, I am currently learning French" Hermione replied and Julieta smiled.
"Could you teach me French?" Mirabel asked softly and Hermione nodded with a grin.
"Well, we best head down to the vaults and gather up a bag of money for the supplies" Minerva stated and everyone nodded.
Soon the group were led down to the vaults and collect about 100 gallons each to get everything as well as any extra things.
"I suggest we leave the book store for last, I know Hermione will want to try and grab as many books as possible" Charlotte stated and Adrian chuckled seeing his daughter turn red.
"Mira, could I see the list?" Julieta asked and Mirabel handed her tia the list and she read it over.
"Agustin, why don't you, Bruno and Adrian go and get the books, while Charlotte and I head with the girls to get the school uniform and the other things needed" Julieta suggested and the men nodded.
"That sounds fine, we will see you in 45 minutes" Agustin said and the ladies nodded.
"Oh dear, I need to head off to the ministry, I shall see you girls at Hogwarts" Albus stated seeing the time on a store window and everyone nodded.
"It was a pleasure to meet you, Headmaster" Mirabel told him and Albus smiled at her then he left and the men went to go to book store.
In the bookstore
The men entered and looked around amazed seeing towers of books stacked to the ceiling.
"Hello good sirs, are you here for the upcoming year?" the shop keep asked seeing them looking a little lost.
"Yes, we are, they will be first years" Adrian replied and the shop keep nodded.
"How many are you shopping for?" the shop keep asked bringing out his wand.
"Two" Bruno replied and the shop keep nodded and the men watched amazed as 16 books flew over to the counter.
"Is there anything else?" the shop keep asked and the men looked at each other.
"We will have a look around for a bit" Agustin told him and the shop keep nodded, the men went different ways to see what other books were around.
With Agustin
As Agustin wondered into an section called magical creatures and there as he was looking at the different titles, he saw that there was another copy of the book called Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and he smiled knowing that many of his family members would be interested to see what types of creatures Mirabel might meet. Plus it would be good to have a second copy for anyone that did not get to read it.
As he continued walking found the section on Herbology and looked over the titles before finding one that would greatly interest his wife and even his eldest daughter which was called Ingredient Encyclopedia.
"I wonder if Isa could recreate any of these plants?" Agustin wondered in his mind and he put it with the Fantastic Beats book.
"Agustin, what have you found so far?" Adrian asked making Agustin jump in fright which had Adrian chuckled seeing Agustin jump in the air.
"You scared me, but I have found another copy of that Fantastic Beasts book and I know that someone might want to keep reading about the creatures once Mira heads off to the school, then I found one that my wife could use and possibly my eldest daughter" Agustin replied showing the books and Adrian smiled.
"Good picks, I found four" Adrian stated as he showed the three books; Great Wizards of the Twentieth Century, Nature's Nobility: A Wizarding Genealogy, A History of Hogwarts.
"Where did you find those? I might get them as well and learn about the history of the Wizarding World" Agustin asked and Adrian smiled at him.
"I will show you and then we best find Bruno and then get back to the girls" Adrian replied and the two men headed off to another area.
With Bruno
As Bruno walked the rows of books seeing if there were any that would catch the attention of his daughter or even himself. He came across two books, two that could be helpful for his sister, if Mirabel get hurt or even learning new things to make; Common Magical Ailments and Afflictions, Healing at Home with Herbs. The final book that he found was one that caught his eye and he grabbed it.
"Understanding the Vision" Bruno muttered under his breath and he flipped through it quickly and he saw that there were many types of visions or seer types. Bruno decided to buy it and see if there was something in there that could help work out what more his power could do.
"There you are Bruno, I was getting concerned when I could not find you" Agustin stated finding his brother in law and Bruno looked to him.
"Sorry, I found some books that Julieta would like" Bruno replied and Agustin smiled at him as Adrian grabbed a copy of Common Magical Ailments and Afflictions.
"We best go and get to the ladies" Adrian stated and the others nodded.
"What books did you find?" Bruno asked the two as they walked away and the three paid for the books. Then they got to talking about the books that they found.
They found Minerva, Julieta, Charlotte, Hermione and Mirabel waiting with other bags.
"We went and got the other equipment, now we only need to get these two their wands" Minerva stated and the men nodded in agreement, the two girls were excited and the group entered Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 B.C. The were peeling faded gold lettering and in the window laying on a light faded cushion was a wand that had a silver handle.
As the group entered the store, they saw boxes piled up to the ceiling and the place felt like you needed to be quiet, yet Bruno, Julieta, Mira and Agustin felt the magic within the building.
"Minerva McGonagall, always wonderful to see you, is it that time again?" everyone but Minerva jumped at the voice and then tried to spot where the voice came from.
"Hello Garrick, it is indeed time for new students to enter Hogwarts as you know I will be back over the next few weeks with other Muggleborns" Minerva stated as a man walked out from a behind the shelves and they saw the man's pale silver eyes shining like moons looking to Mirabel.
"Oh my, so the line does live on..." he walked over to Mirabel "your mother weaved a deep ward over you, it protects you... your mother was a talented witch... I am sorry for her loss" Garrick stated sadly and Mirabel looked at him confused.
"You knew my mother" Mirabel asked with a tilt of her head and Garrick nodded.
"The Ollivander family were allies of the McKiinnon, Potter, Longbottom, Bones and Greengrass families... but it was the McKinnons that helped my ancestor bring this store to life, gave us a few ancient secrets, you will always have a safe place here if you were ever to need it" Garrick stated with a small bow and Mirabel looked amazed.
"Thank you sir" Mirabel said bowing her head and Garrick smiled at her before looking to the other young girl.
"You have a powerful aura surrounding you as well, I can see great things coming from you both... now who shall go first?" Garrick asked looking between the two girls and Hermione decided to go first, it took 37 wands before she found hers which was a vine wood with a core of dragon heartstring.
"Congratulations Hermione" Mirabel told her and Hermione smiled at her and Mirabel swallowed before stepping forward.
Mirabel tried 83 wands before Garrick paused and looked between Mirabel and Bruno then his eyes lit up before walking back to the isles causing confusion for the girls.
"Garrick... is everything alright?" Minerva asked seeing the confusion on Mirabel's face and everyone waited to see what was going to happen and then there was boxes being moved loudly, Mirabel looked to her father who looked concerned as well.
"FOUND IT!" Ollivander shouted scaring Bruno and he walked out with a proud smile.
"Found what?" Mirabel asked with a tilt of her head and Garrick smiled at her.
"My great great grandfather created this wand, after he was offered an ancient branch from a Colombian Oak tree from a distant traveler and for about 6 weeks after the gifting, he was lost on what to pair the wood with..." Garrick smiled at the wand "then a few hours after placing the wood away, a phoenix with strange blue flames appeared in front of him and offered one tail feather, I can sense that this wand is for you" Garrick stated and he offered the wand to Mirabel who took it gently then waited for the wand to accept her.
Garrick looked sad when nothing happened but then there was a burst of blue light as silver vines flowed around Mirabel and she heard a beautiful singing and then everything stopped.
"Mira, you alright?" Bruno asked his daughter as he ran over to her and check her over.
"I... I'm fine" Mirabel whispered looking at her new wand in awe.
"Yes, I should have tried that wand in the first few, it speaks of your Colombian heritage but also speaks of the McKinnon survival... however there was something else I can not put my finger on" Garrick stated frowning and Mirabel looked at him and smiled.
"I will always honour both sides of my heritage" Mirabel told him firmly and Garrick nodded still wondering what was missing.
"We best get home" Julieta stated and everyone nodded, the group departed and Minerva called for Fawkes knowing the phoenix would come to her.
Julieta, Bruno, Agustin and Mirabel arrived back at Casita, where Mirabel's cousins were wanting to hear about to trip and see what she got.
Elsewhere
As a small ding echoed through the empty hallway, as golden doors opened and a bronze-cloaked figure slowly walked out into the hallway before taking a deep breath and walking toward the solid black door with an ominous feeling creeping into his mind.
"Greetings..." a silver shadow appeared on the black door "seeker of knowledge, what is it you are seeking?" the shadow stated in a distorted voice and the bronze cloaked figure swallowed before taking a breath.
"Greetings mysterious guardian, I seek the head for the 25 year check of the spheres within your halls" the figure stated calmly despite the wariness the place gives him.
The figure felt as he was being watched and he knew not to move for the eyes were simply others employed within the hallowed halls.
"Please..." the figure wanted to jump and scream when the shadow's distorted voice came back, but knew he couldn't move "state the identity given to you by the miners" the voice demanded and the figure stood straighter.
"They call me Finder of the Lost" the figure stated and then there was silence.
"You may enter for the Head is awaiting you in the main hall" the shadow distorted voice stated before the silver disappeared from the doors as they slowly opened and just in the centre of the next room stood a figure cloaked in grey and red.
"Why does this check happen every 25 years?" Finder of the Lost asked entering the room and the head of the department chuckled before turning serious.
"425 years ago, when the check was done every second year... there were many years between when a prophecy would become active and I only know of one that became active in the past 10 years and it was the one that Albus Dumbledore was told but someone overheard it" the head stated and the Finder moved his head carefully.
"So why was this check not done then?" the Finder asked as the two came across the black doors and the Head turned to the Finder.
"Due to the magic and wards that now lay within the foundation of the room, the door shall only open every 25 years or when someone a prophecy speaks about is in the department" the Head stated and then the doors opened.
The Head headed over to the left and the Finder followed, there on the wall was a large book and the Head gasped in surprise.
"Head? What is it?" the Finder asked hearing the gasp and he took a few steps forward.
"There are now two active prophecies, one of which is Cassandra Vablatsky's first prophecy which was spoken in 1906" the Head read out and the Finder looked at the prophecy.
Two shall break free of expectations
Healing enchanted sleep one holds deep
The broken dark shall rise
Flower shall meet the Heart
Under the light of flames
"I never heard of this one" the Finder said looking to the Head.
"That is because no one was around her when she spoke the prophecy, the story goes that she was out by the Black Lake with a book and then she spoke the prophecy, I know many have tried to talk to her about the book she was reading but she has given no answers and her grand-daughter is now at Hogwarts under Albus Dumbledore's protection" The Head replied and the Finder.
"Can we find out who the prophecy is about?" the Finder asked with a curious tone and the head chuckled.
"There is no violet writing, meaning the prophecy is not yet ready to happen" the head replied and the Finder nodded.
"And the other prophecy, who is it about?" the finder asked and the head flipped to the next page, there on the page in violet letters were the names Harry James Potter and Tom Marvolo Riddle.
"The prophecy is starting, time will only know when it ends now" the head stated in an ominous tone and the Finder wondered who Tom Riddle was and what he had to do with the Boy-Who-Lived.
Silver - This was a large chapter, but I hope you all liked it and for those that know, I hope I got the surname right, I had used google and I hoped I understood it. I also looked up Colombian surnames to find a surname for Agustin. Also the original chapter had 5001 words and this has 8,143 words.
Loki - Well, you are doing a job of research, my brain is still talking in German.
Silver - Voting has closed as I got pairings all down and there will be new surprises coming, so keep an eye out for that. I know that I said I would keep the voting up till the end of book one, but when Loki and I were talking, she told me that the voting should be closed.
Loki - Final note from me, could you please let us know if you like the Elsewhere part as I was not a fan of it when Silver spoke about the idea. I know where it is leading and I am not a fan of it just yet.

Hogwarts
Scotland, Great Britain
1st of August, 1991 - 11:15am
Albus Dumbledore was pacing in his office, his thoughts going a mile a minute with worry for the upcoming school year, before his thoughts then turned to concern for Harry Potter and wondering why there were so many letters being sent to his home, then tracking him to random places and he had hoped that Hagrid was alright getting to the Potter heir.
"Albus, everything will turn out for the best..." Albus turned to look at the portraits of past headmasters and headmistresses of Hogwarts "you did everything you could and now we all have to wait till the school year begins" Headmistress Wilkins stated calmly and Albus sat down heavily in his chair.
"I know, but you must admit that this year... this year is going to be a big year for..." Albus glanced to a drawer in his desk where the photo album was kept "we are having not only Harry Potter, but we are also having Neville Longbottom, Susan Bones and Mirabel Madrigal... one or both their parents were killed or in the case of Mr Longbottom's parents... they will remain in Saint Mungos... then we have many children of those that support Tom... and do not forget Nicholas has asked me to guard the stone... I just... I just hope that this year will be alright... but it seems that is too big of ask" Albus told them and Fawkes thrilled in a calming song.
"Thank you Fawkes" Headmistress Derwent stated with a small smile and Albus nodded his head to Fawkes.
"Albus, how do you intend for young Miss Madrigal to arrive at the train?" Headmaster Everard asked and Albus frowned not even thinking of that before Fawkes thrill to the surprise of the portraits and Albus.
"You wish to collect, Miss Madrigal?" Albus asked the phoenix who thrilled and Albus was surprised at the phoenix.
"You best let the young one know" Headmaster Dippet stated calmly and Albus nodded in agreement as he then looked to the clock and was surprised to see that the time was 11:29am.
"You are correct, I shall go and let her know" Albus stated and Fawkes flew over and he was gone from the office.

Albus and Fawkes appeared just behind the house, Albus smiled seeing the beautiful sunrise peaking over the mountains. He shook his head hoping that someone was awake so he could chat with them about getting young Mirabel to the train on time. As he walked forward, he rounded a corner and saw to his surprise young Mirabel Madrigal sitting cross legged in a hammock and reading a book, looking very much like a young Marlene causing him to gasp outloud which scared Mirabel causing her to nearly fall out of the hammock if Fakwes had not flown over her and helped her sit up.
"Oh my...I am so sorry for the scare my dear, you looked just like your mother when she was reading her books" Albus told her as he walked near and Mirabel blushed.
"Really..." Mirabel smiled hearing that she looked like her mother "I have always love to read when the sun is rising, I feel more alive when the morning light hits me, Headmaster Dumbledore" Mirabel told him and Albus smiled at her.
"It is a good habit to have waking up early, which book are you currently reading?" Albus asked kindly as he sat down on the hammock and Mirabel lifted the book up and Albus smiled seeing A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration book.
"I am looking forward to learning about Transfiguration" Mirabel told him and he smiled at her.
"You want to know something..." Mirabel tilted her head "before I was Headmaster, I taught Transfiguration for many years" Albus told her and Mirabel looked at him in awe.
"Mirabel, where are you?" Albus and Mirabel looked towards the side as Luisa appeared "oh hello sir" Luisa said as she walked towards the two.
"Morning Luisa" Mirabel greeted her older cousin and Luisa smiled at her.
"Breakfast is ready..." Luisa looked to Albus "will you be staying for breakfast sir?" Luisa asked and Albus shook his head.
Mirabel and Albus stood and together with Luisa walked into Casita.
"No, my dear... I am only here to let young Mirabel and her father know how they will be getting to London" Albus stated and soon the three entered the kitchen.
"Welcome Headmaster, is everything alright?" Alma asked looking concerned to Mirabel and then back to Albus.
"Everything is alright, it had just occurred to me that neither Minerva nor I told you how you would be getting back to London in order to catch the train" Albus stated and Bruno raised an eyebrow.
"I had assumed that Mira and I would be catching a plane" Bruno replied and Albus shook his head and then Fawkes flew into the kitchen with a thrill.
"Fawkes has offered to help get you to London and even when it is time for you to return back for the holidays" Albus explained and Mirabel walked over to the phoenix.
"Thank you so much Fawkes, you are one of a kind" Mirabel told him and Fawkes thrilled before rubbing his head on Mirabel's cheek getting Mirabel to giggle.
"It is rare to see Fawkes this taken with someone, last time he was taken by someone was a good many years ago... also I believe that Fawkes would be happy to take letters between you both" Albus told the family and he smiled seeing Mirabel giggling at Fawkes preening her hair.
"It makes me happy seeing Mira so happy" Bruno stated and Albus nodded.
"Well, I best head back, I am expecting a letter and I still have much to sort out for the upcoming year" Fawkes thrilled sadly which made Albus chuckle "you can come and visit Mirabel whenever you want, if that is alright with you madam" Albus asked looking to Alma.
"That is fine with me" Bruno stated with a look to his mother and Albus nodded before Fawkes flew over to him and the two disappeared in flames.

Over the past month, Mirabel read her course books as well as reading the books her tio Agustin and father found for her and others. Mirabel found that she loved reading about the creatures of the Wizarding World and she hoped to get to fly on a Griffin or Hippogriff. She laid down on her bed and daydreamed about flying and being among the clouds.
"Mi mariposita, are you alright?" Mirabel opened her eyes and looked over to the doorway where her father stood looking at her with concern.
"I am fine papa, just wondering what it would be like to fly on a Griffin or Hippogriff" Mirabel replied with a smile and Bruno sat down next to her.
"I am not so sure about flying on either of those, but just promise you will be careful if you encounter either of those or any creatures..." Mirabel nodded her head in agreement "anyway, I am in here cause I found out a few things from my visit to Bogotá Gringotts" Bruno told her and Mirabel sat up.
"What did you find out?" Mirabel asked and Bruno smiled at her before hugging her close.
"Well, the Madrigal family is an old family, but we rarely left South America, many of our ancestors were home schooled, however Abuelo's parents only had one child and before they could even meet your tias or I, they died from Dragon Pox and then Abuelo sacrificed his life, the goblins believe the family lost due to the protections around Encanto" Bruno explained and then he pulled out a single silver ring with a mark on it.
"Is that our family crest?" Mirabel asked and Bruno nodded handing over the ring.
"It is indeed..." Mirabel studied the small creatures, wondering what they were, one looked like a wolf and the other "the goblins tell me that one of our ancestors had found a book of Celtic symbols and found that the symbol suited to our family" Bruno explained and Mirabel saw that there was a symbol of a tree in the middle between the two strange animals.
"Do you know what the animals are? What symbol is it called? What does the symbol mean?" Mirabel asked handing it back and Bruno smiled.
"The animal on the right is something called a shadow dire wolf, apparently on the grounds of the old Madrigal mansion, our family raised shadow dire wolves to become familiars to witches and wizards, sadly about 150 something happened to the pack and from the notes of my great grand mother stated that there was a strange echoing call leading up to the day the wolves disappeared" Bruno stated and Mirabel looked sad.
"I hope we find them again" Mirabel whispered and Bruno agreed.
"The animal on the left is called an Alicanto, it is a cousin of the phoenix and Thunderbird, I only found one note that it is the true guardian of the Madrigal line and will appear to protect a Madrigal in grave danger" Bruno stated and Mirabel looked at awe.
"Maybe... maybe it is still around and protecting the valley" Mirabel whispered and Bruno blinked not even thinking about that and vowed to look into it.
"And finally we have the symbol in the middle, it is called the Tree of Life and it represents strength, longevity and wisdom... however there was a note in the vault that said the ancestor picked it for another meaning..." Bruno put the ring on and pulled out a piece of parchment "to link between every root below the ground and every branch above" Bruno read and Mirabel frowned before she looked to her father confused.
"What does that mean?" Mirabel asked and Bruno smiled and kissed her head.
"Mainly to honour our ancestors and respect those with us" Bruno told her and Mirabel smiled at him.
"What else did you find out?" Mirabel asked and Bruno chuckled.
"There is still a few things I need to find out, however I did find out that the gifts the family has were part of the Madrigal family" Bruno told her and Mirabel tilted her head and Bruno handed her another piece of parchment.

"Why can't tia Julieta or tia Pepa inherit the title?" Mirabel asked handing the piece of parchment back.
"From what the goblins told me, I only hold the title till you are of age... only those of magic weaving can be lord or lady" Bruno explained and Mirabel looked down to the heir ship rings on her finger.
"So, I would be Lady Madrigal as well" Mirabel whispered looking upset and Bruno looked at her confused.
"Why does that upset you?" Bruno asked softly and Mirabel looked into his eyes.
"I was the gift less Madrigal for the longest time, the one that was useless and..." Mirabel felt her father calmly placing his hands on her shoulders.
"Mirabel Rosa Madrigal, you are not useless nor are you gift less, you will be great and your cousins are happy for you" Bruno told her softly looking in to her eyes watching as tears form and Mirabel hugged him as tears fell and Bruno rubbed her back.
"Bruno?" Bruno looked up to his mother and shook his head and she left, Bruno wondered what his mother wanted but his first thought was calming his daughter down and he looked at her.
"Dos oruguitas enamoradas
Pasan sus noches y madrugadas
Llenas de hambre
Siguen andando y navegando un mundo
Que cambia y sigue cambiando
Navegando un mundo
Que cambia y sigue cambiando
Dos oruguitas paran el viento
Mientras se abrazan con sentimiento
Siguen creciendo, no saben cuándo
Buscar algún rincón
El tiempo sigue cambiando
Inseparables son
El tiempo sigue cambiando
Ay oruguitas, no se aguanten más
Hay que crecer a parte y volver
Hacia adelante seguirás
Vienen milagros, vienen crisálidas
Hay que partir y construir su propio futuro" Bruno sung softly rubbing Mirabel's back and he felt her fall asleep and he got up quietly and placed her into bed even though it was still day light.
Bruno kissed Mirabel's forehead and moved quietly to the door where he paused and glanced back to Mirabel.
"You are my gift, Mirabel, the one that gives me hope" Bruno whispered and he left the room wanting to find his mother and find out what she wanted. Bruno knew that his mama was trying to do better by himself and Mirabel, but there were many years of hurt within and he was trying to be a better son, but his duty first and foremost was to his daughter and making sure that she was happy.
Bruno also knew that the reveal that his father was a wizard and never told Alma that fact, hurt his mother deep when he returned from the bank.
"Mama, you wanted to talk to me" Bruno said as she found his mother sitting by an upstairs window overlooking the valley.
"I... your father use to sing that song and it had been years since I heard it" his mother whispered and Bruno walked over to her.
"Mama, I know that it was hard to hear about papa..." Bruno said and his mother looked to him.
"Bruno... I failed you, I failed Mirabel... I failed in being your mother and Mirabel's grandmother" his mother whispered and Bruno looked down.
"I believe that you were suffering grief for the longest of times and that is why you wanted our family to be perfect and to protect what papa gave his life for" Bruno told her and his mother looked down.
"Brunito... I am so sorry for how I treated you... how I treated Mirabel... I promise to do better by the both of you and our family" his mother whispered and Bruno looked at her with a small smile.
"That is all Mirabel and I ask for" Bruno replied with a soft smile and his mother nodded and watched as Bruno got up to walk away.
"Bruno..." Bruno turned back to his mother "you are a great father to Mirabel" his mother told him and Bruno looked at her sadly.
"I may be a great father now, but I still failed her for 6 years, I will always hate myself for that" Bruno told his mother and he walked towards his tower.

Mirabel was packing the books into her trunk, making sure everything was neat, that her uniform was washed and folded. As she packed the last books, she got to her feet and walked over to the window looking out to the valley.
"I am going to miss you Casita, but sadly I won't be back in time for Día de las Velitas, I think I come back around near Christmas day..." the shutters turned sad "please look after papa" Mirabel whispered and Casita makes the tiles nod.
Mirabel walked back to her trunk and closed it, however it would not close and Mirabel cursed glaring at the trunk.
"Mira, don't let your father hear that word" Dolores stated with a smile as she entered the room and Mirabel looked at her then pointed to the trunk.
"It won't close" Mirabel replied with a pout looking to the trunk and Dolores giggled seeing the expression before she shook her head.
"Oh Mira... you should only take the course books and when you come home for holidays, you can grab the others if you want them" Dolores reasoned and Mirabel sighed before nodding and she opened the trunk.
"But what if I need them before I come home?" Mirabel asked as she watched her older cousin pull out a few balls of thread and sewing kit.
"Mira, you will be so busy with course work and exploring the school that I do not think you will need you sewing kit and balls of thread, I saw in your Charms course book that there is a mending charm and even a severing charm that you will be learning at some point this year" Dolores stated as she placed the sewing kit and thread into a drawer.
"That is true, but what if I have free time... what should I do?" Mirabel asked as Dolores grabbed the final balls of thread and Dolores looked over to her.
"Mira, there will be clubs, there would be a library and maybe you could see if you could meet some of the creatures that are on the grounds" Dolores told her as she walked over to the drawers and Mirabel sighed.
"What if no one likes me? What if they want to use me cause of my heritage?" Mirabel whispered looking down and Dolores looked to where Mirabel sat. Dolores placed the thread on the dresser and the walked back over to sit next to Mirabel.
"Is that what you are so worried about?" Mirabel nodded "Children can be cruel, prima, that is the sad truth, but from what tia Julieta was telling mama... you were friendly with the other girl that went with you to Diagon Alley" Dolores told her softly and Mirabel nodded.
"Hermione was nice, she loves books and loves to learn, she asked me if I could teach her Spanish" Mirabel told Dolores and the older girl smiled.
"Teach her, embrace your heritage... be true to yourself and no one else" Dolores whispered and Mirabel nodded.
"I will and I will make our family proud" Mirabel whispered and Dolores smiled at her cousin.
"You have always made this family proud, no matter what Abuela says" Dolores told her and hugged her close.
Soon the two got Mirabel's trunk closed and Casita got it to move downstairs while the two walked together. It was time to say good bye for many months and everyone hugged Mirabel and wished her luck in training to be a witch. Fawkes appeared and left with Bruno, Mirabel and Mirabel's trunk.
"She will be okay, right mama?" Isabela asked looking to her mother and Julieta nodded with a soft smile.
"Your prima is strong, she can overcome all that gets thrown in her way and she will be great" Julieta told her eldest and Isabela looked to her sister and cousins.
"It will just feel weird without Mira here" Luisa said knowing the look on her sister's face and everyone nodded.
After learning that Mirabel had a special gift, not like the rest of the family, Isabela felt guilty for ignoring and badmouthing her cousin. She tried to reach out to Mirabel, but had no idea how and she regretted not being there for Mirabel when Tio Bruno disappeared.
Isabela decided that when Mirabel returns, she would be a better cousin to her as well as Dolores, Camilo and Antonio. She even promised herself to be a better sister to Luisa.

31st of August, 1991
Bruno and Mirabel arrived in an alley just across the road from the Leaky Cauldron.
"Thank you so much Fawkes" Mirabel told the phoenix who thrilled before disappearing in flames.
"That phoenix adores you, Mirabel" Bruno said with a smile and Mirabel looked at him.
"He likes you too, papa" Mirabel told him and Bruno shrugged.
"Well, we best head in get us a room and then have some dinner" Bruno said with his tone turning sad and Mirabel looked at him concerned and he waved it off.
The father daughter duo walked over to the inn, as the two entered they saw that it was fairly busy and Bruno looked over to see if he could see Tom the Barkeep.
"Oh hello there, are you just wanting dinner or dinner and a room?" Bruno jumped and turned to see Tom smiling a toothy grin at him.
"Dinner and a room, if possible" Bruno replied and Tom nodded with a toothy grin.
"Follow me then" the father daughter duo followed Tom over to a table near a corner "here you go, I shall go and get a menu as well as a room key" Tom stated and hurried off as the two sat down.
"Mi mariposita, I want you to promise me something..." Mirabel looked to her father "please try and make friends, make sure you study and the final thing, just have fun, don't let anyone push you around" Bruno whispered and Mirabel smiled at him.
"I promise, papa... what if... what if no one wants to be my friend? What if I disappoint you?" Mirabel whispered looking down to the table and Bruno looked her softly.
"Mira... look at me please" Mirabel shook her head and Bruno saw tears appearing on the table "mi mariposita... you will make friends, you are a Madrigal and you are my daughter and you are your mother's daughter... you will make me proud no matter what, cause I know your heart and I know you would always do your best" Bruno told her and Mirabel looked him.
"I will make you proud" Mirabel stated and Bruno smiled at her before moving his chair close to her and he hugged her. He regretted deeply leaving her for 6 years, but he would never leave her again.
"Is everything alright?" the father daughter duo looked up to see a blonde haired woman with blue-green eyes looking at them "Are you a first year?" the woman asked and Mirabel nodded shyly.
"Everything will be alright, thank you and yes she is" Bruno replied with a sad look at his daughter.
"My niece will be a first year as well" the woman stated with a smile at her side and Bruno then noticed a young girl just besides the woman, the girl also had blonde hair which was braided to just below her shoulders.
"It is nice to meet you both, I am Bruno Madrigal and this is my daughter Mirabel" Bruno introduced seeing that Mirabel was still shy.
"It is nice to meet you both..." the woman paused and Bruno frowned then looked to where the woman was looking, Mirabel had her left hand flat on the table with only the McKinnon heir ring showing "McKinnon? How?" the woman whispered falling into a seat and Bruno looked at her with concern.
"Auntie? Are you alright?" her niece asked putting a hand on her aunt's shoulder looking concerned.
"Did you know Marlene?" Bruno asked wondering if this woman and his wife were friends.
"She... she was one of my best friends, same with two others... how did you know her?" the woman asked looking at Bruno.
"She was my wife... she left our home on the 5th of August from our home and for years I had wondered what happened to her... Mirabel and I found out last month" Bruno told the woman and he looked to Mirabel who looked down.
"I am so sorry, where are my manners... my name is Amelia Bones, this is my niece Susan" Amelia told Bruno and he shook her hand.
"Marlene had spoken of you and her friends, but she wanted to keep Mirabel safe" Bruno explained and Amelia nodded with understanding.
"It is hard...hard thinking of the past, I start remembering her, remembering Lily..." Amelia said softly looking down.
"Lily? Lily Potter?" Mirabel spoke up and Amelia looked to her.
"Yes, she too was one of my best friends and then the final member of our group was Alice Greengrass now Alice Longbottom" Amelia told them and Tom walked over and gave Bruno the menus.
"Here are the menus as well as the room key for the night" Tom said handing over the items and Bruno smiled at him.
"Thank you Tom" Bruno told him and just as Tom was about to walk away he noticed the others are the table.
"Madam Bones, good evening, where you be eating here as well" Tom asked her and Amelia looked to Susan.
"Could we stay, auntie?" Susan asked softly and Amelia looked to Bruno.
"You are welcome and we can share the menu" Bruno told Tom who nodded.
"Thank you, Bruno" Amelia replied and he smiled at her.
"What happened to Alice?" Bruno asked as he handed the menu to Mirabel.
"Were you told about Halloween 1981?" Amelia asked softly and Bruno thought for a moment.
"Madam McGonagall and Headmaster Dumbledore told us that Vol...Vo..." Bruno was stopped by Amelia shushing him and looking around the pub.
"Don't say the name, just call him He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named here" Amelia whispered and Bruno nodded.
"They told us... HE was killed on Halloween night when he went after Marlene's best friend's family... only he was killed by Lily's son" Mirabel stated and Bruno looked to her.
"You just reminded me about something... would it be alright if you keep an eye on Mirabel, just for a bit" Bruno asked Amelia and she raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know how long you would be?" Amelia asked with a slight concerned tone and Bruno shook his head.
"I need to go and visit Marlene's personal vault, I just get the feeling that I need to before I take Mirabel to the train or even before I go and return home" Bruno replied and Amelia nodded with understanding.
"The visit won't take too long, just tell the goblins that you wish to visit a vault and they will take you down, also it would not be busy at the bank right now seeing as many of the parents or guardians will be sending the children off to Hogwarts tomorrow, so nearly all will want to spend the final night sorting out the trunks and making sure the uniforms are cleaned" Amelia explained and Bruno nodded.
"Thank you, so I won't be long" Bruno told Mirabel who nodded and watched as her father with for the bank.
"What course or courses are you looking forward to?" Susan asked and Mirabel smiled at her.
Gringotts Bank
Bruno entered the bank and he headed over to an empty teller.
"Good evening, I wish to go and see vault 931" Bruno told the goblin and the goblin glared before nodding.
The trip down to the vault was pretty quick and once Bruno entered the vault, he saw an old trunk that was slightly falling apart and there on the trunk sat a pile of envelopes, Bruno took a deep breath and walked forward.
He picked up the envelopes and he saw there were 10 envelopes there, he took them all and left the vault intending to get back to his daughter.

Chapter 6
Minerva McGonagall's office
Hogwarts, Scotland
1st of September, 1991
6:30am
Minerva McGonagall never could sleep in, especially when it came to the 1st of September and as she stood at her window looking out over the calm grounds knowing that later that night the students would be returning or first stepping foot onto the ancient grounds.
"I see you are up early, Minerva" a man's voice came from behind her and Minerva turned to see a greasy black haired man standing in her office door way.
"Severus, what a surprise to see you this early as well... I would have thought that you would be getting as much as sleep as you can before the students arrive" Minerva replied with a bit of snark and Severus just raised an eyebrow at her.
"Now... play nice you two" Albus stated entering the office and Minerva smiled at her boss and mentor.
"Good morning, Albus... are you all sorted for the upcoming school year" Minerva asked Albus as Severus walked over to a seat and sat down watching the two.
"As sorted as it will be" Albus replied and Minerva looked to Severus who nodded.
"And the stone? What are you going to do with it?" Minerva asked sternly and Albus sighed heavily placing a hand on the wall.
"You want to challenge him, don't you?" Severus growled getting slowly to his feet and Albus turned sharply to him with a glare towards Severus causing the man to step back.
"No, I do not want to test him, but I have a plan in the making that if he finds out about the stone and wants to discover more of the history, then there is an option is there... do you think I am that heartless to put him in danger?" Albus growled at the younger man and Severus stepped back sensing the power that Albus was giving off.
"You are not heartless, Albus... you and I both see him as a grandchild and add in the others..." Minerva was cut off and she turned to look at Severus.
"Others? What others?" Severus cut off Minerva raised an eyebrow at him.
"This year we shall not only be having your godson and the children of your little horrible group... but we also have Neville Longbottom..." Severus groaned and Minerva glared at him "Susan Bones..." Severus walked back over to the chair with a muttered word that neither of the others heard and sat down heavily "Ronald Weasley..." Minerva smirked seeing the expression on the younger man's face.
"Great another red haired Weasley brat, he will no doubt be one of yours Minerva" Severus stated with a groan running a hand down his face and Minerva looked at him.
"Alright you two enough... there is one other coming to Hogwarts that might surprise you Severus" Albus stated with a look that Severus could not make heads or tails of him, before he scoffed.
"You do realise that there are about 30 first years this year, I doubt there are any true surprises" Severus stated looking at the two older teachers and Minerva crossed her arms.
"There are 31 first years this year and one gave Albus, Poppy and I a massive shock... none of us were expecting it" Minerva told him firmly and Severus scoffed and went to say something however Albus cut him off.
"You remember Marlene McKinnon... don't you Severus?" he said calmly watching the younger man with twinkling bright blue eyes and Severus looked to him with a questioning look.
"Of course, I do... she was best friends with Lily... barely did anything to me" Severus stated before his memories turned back to learning what happened to her.
"Her daughter will be joining us" Minerva told him and Severus looked between the two with shock.
"But the Dark Lord killed her and everyone in her family in August 1981... I remember the victory party that he threw" Severus commented as he looked down remembering how Marlene had helped him before the events of fifth year exams.
"This information does not leave this office, so no going to tell Lucius or anyone in that corner about her daughter coming to the school" Albus warned and Severus looked at him sharply.
"I won't... well, if you excuse me, I shall be getting back to my lab and finishing the potions for Poppy" Severus stated and he got to his feet and left the office.
"Albus... what are your plans if Harry were to discover the stone? What information will you give him about it's history? He is the son of James and Lily, both were too curious for their own good" Minerva asked softly walking over to her mentor.
"I must confess something to you... I need to see what the Dursleys have done to him, Hagrid reported to me that they were not at all welcoming to him and there were a few things said that Hagrid did not like the sound of... but I swear to you that he would never be in danger as long as I stand as Headmaster" Albus told her and Minerva watched as he left her office.
She wondered what happened at the visit but also hopefully this might help get young Harry away from those horrible muggles.

7:15am
Bruno sat up in his bed and looked at the 10 envelopes on the dresser and he swallowed before picking up his one. He quickly glanced to Mirabel, who was curled up sleeping still with soft snores and he chuckled quietly and looked to the letter addressed to him.
Mi amado vidente
Bruno felt tears form reading the Spanish for My Beloved Seer "Oh Marlene" Bruno whispered and he swallowed before opening the envelope and pulling out the letter.
Mi amado vidente,
I have a bad feeling that I won't return to you or Mirabel... I really do hope that this letter never gets to you, because if it does... then my worst fear has happened and I am dead. It also means I would not see our little caterpillar become the butterfly we know she will become.
You have shown me what love is and what it feels like to be loved. Every time you kissed me and our lips touched so softly, I could feel it. I got the same magical feeling as our first kiss. I could feel it when our hearts get so close they are beating as one.
You are the beat of my heart, the soul in my body; you are me, because without you I am nothing. I wish that I was still with you and Mirabel, to see Mirabel grow up... to see her off to Hogwarts and to let her meet my friends and their children.
Bruno, promise me that you would always be there for our daughter, you had told me about the gift ceremony that happens when the child turns five... I should have told you that I got a feeling that our baby would not get a gift cause she has magic within.
Bruno, I know I wrote down before but I will hammer it in wherever I can... you will always be the love of my life, the man of my dreams and just because I am gone from this world does not mean I am not with you... I will always be by your side... by Mirabel's side... watching over you both and keeping you safe.
There is another reason for me writing this letter, it is about the reason why I returned back here... a few days ago, I saw our baby girl summon over my old teddy that my aunt made me when I was baby and I knew then that it was time to return here... just to set things up from the school fund which holds 5000 gallons and also set up Mirabel's godparents if the worst were to happen if you were to die as well and Mirabel could not return back to Encanto.
I know our daughter, she will want to keep the rest of the Madrigals safe if the war goes over the ocean.
I should explain about the other letters that were with this one, they are for:
Mirabel (there are three for her, one for the train ride, one for when she is 13 and one for when she is 17).
Amelia Bones (contains my farewell, some memories and it also contains something that you saw in a night vision)
Lily and James Potter (it contains memories to share with Harry and also my wish for them to be Mirabel's godparents, if the worst has happened please give the letter to Sirius Black)
Alice and Frank Longbottom (it simply contains my goodbyes and a few memories for Alice to share with Neville)
Edgar and Catherine Bones (Same as the letter for Frank and Alice)
Sirius Black (just a letter saying my farewell and a memory)
Marcus Greengrass (Alice's brother, I have included some memories as well as a letter for Daphne)
Alma Madrigal (I want her to understand why I left and what my schooling was like, so there are memories within)
Be strong, mi amado vidente
I will always be with you
Marlene
Bruno hugged the letter close as tears fell and he jolted in shock as he felt arms hugging him, he glanced down to see Mirabel looking at him with worry.
"Papa, are you alright?" Mirabel asked and Bruno hugged her close.
"This is a letter from your mama... it was in her personal vault" Bruno told Mirabel softly.
"What about the other letters?" Mirabel asked looking to the pile and Bruno smiled at her before kissing the top of her head.
"Well there are 3 for you, one you will be able to read on the train to Hogwarts, while the other 2 are for later on when you are a bit older..." he chuckled seeing a small pout on Mirabel's face "the others are for Amelia..." Bruno was cut off by Mirabel who looked excited.
"We met her last night, I really like her and Susan..." Bruno looked at Mirabel with worry hearing the small pause "do you think Susan and Hermione would be friends?" Mirabel asked in a whispered and Bruno hugged her wishing more than ever that he took care of the horrible bullies in the village.
"Mirabel, listen to me baby, no one can or should tell you who you should be friends with... however if for whatever reason the two can not be nice to each then do not force them together, maybe make time on different days for the girls..." Mirabel nodded still looking worried and Bruno kissed the top of her head "you will be alright, you are Mi mariposita and you are truly one of a kind" Bruno told her and Mirabel smiled hugging him.
"Thank you papa... who are the other letters for?" Mirabel asked looking back to the letters.
"There is a letter that was meant for Lily and James Potter... they were meant to be your godparents..." Bruno told her and Mirabel looked down.
"What... what are godparents? I forgot to ask when I saw the results of the test" Mirabel asked looking to him and Bruno sighed.
"Godparents are for when the parents are no longer with us, your mama assigned Lily and James in case something happened to the family and myself" Bruno explained softly and Mirabel looked teary eyed to him before hugging him again a bit tighter than before.
"Papi... promise me you will keep safe" Mirabel cried hugging him and Bruno rubbed her back.
"Mi mariposita, lo prometo" Bruno whispered and he simply hugged her while rubbing her back.
Bruno looked at the time and he sighed seeing it saying 8:30am and the train for Hogwarts leaves at 11am.
"Papi... what about the other letters?" Mirabel asked wiping her tears away and Bruno looked over to the pile.
"Well one is for your Abuela, so I will be taking that back with me and the others are for old friends of your mother... I will see if Amelia can help me get the letters to them or what she says about the ones that have passed" Bruno explained and Mirabel nodded.
"Te amo papa" Mirabel whispered and Bruno smiled at her.
"Y yo te amo mas" Bruno took a breath "we... we best head to the train station" Bruno whispered and Mirabel nodded.
Bruno packed the letters into his shoulder bag that he brought with him and soon the two were ready to head to the station. The letter from Marlene for Mirabel's train ride was at the top of her trunk and ready for whenever she wanted to read it.
King's Cross Station
Bruno and Mirabel arrived at the station and as they were approaching the entry point, Bruno noticed a rather large man pulling out a trunk from a car while a messy black hair boy watched holding an owl cage that held a stunning white owl.
"Have a good term" Bruno heard the man say with glee and Bruno frowned seeing the boy looking lost.
"Well, that will not be on, horrible man" Bruno thought to himself before turning to Mirabel.
"Stick close, Mi mariposita" Bruno whispered and Mirabel nodded looking at the large man with worry in her eyes.
Father and daughter walked over to the boy and man.
"HEY!" Bruno yelled loudly and the man turned to him, the man's eyes widen in shock and took a step back.
"No... you.. you are meant to be dead" the man stated bumping into the car and Bruno raised an eyebrow.
"I believe you have me mix up with someone else... you should be helping your son into the station" Bruno stated looking at the man as Mirabel looked to the boy who was blushing.
"He is a freak... you... you are one of the freaks as well" the man stated pointing a finger and Bruno looked at him with an eyebrow. He had been use being called a freak cause of his gift and the visions, but Bruno got the feeling that his man called the young boy a freak as well and that was not on in Bruno's mind.
"Vernon, we have to go" the woman in the car yelled and Bruno watched as the man Vernon glared at him before getting into the car and left the station.
"Horrible man that one" Bruno muttered under his breath as Mirabel walked over to the young boy.
"Are you alright?" Mirabel asked the boy and he looked at her.
"I... are you going to Hogwarts as well" the boy whispered looking around and Mirabel giggled as Bruno walked over to his daughter and the young boy.
"Yep, first year... you?" Mirabel asked with a small smile and Bruno chuckled at his daughter, he was so happy that she was back being herself after the emotional morning they had.
"Mira... you should introduce yourself?" Bruno told her softly and Mirabel blushed.
"Sorry, my name is Mirabel Madrigal and this is my papa Bruno" Mirabel introduced and the boy looked at Bruno with awe.
"It is nice to meet you, I am Harry Potter..." Bruno's eyes widen at the young boy who was his daughter's god-brother "are you a wizard?" Harry asked looking at Bruno with a tilt of his head.
"In a way and it is nice to meet you as well... shall we go and find this..." Bruno pulled out the ticket "platform nine and three quarters..." the two children nodded "let's go then, hopefully we will meet someone that can show us where it is exactly... in case we get lost in this massive station" Bruno stated and the trio walked into the station.
Bruno was reading the ticket and looking confused while Harry and Mirabel were watching for other students.
"- packed with Muggles, of course-" Harry turned around before poking Mirabel in the shoulder and she turned as well.
"Papa" Mirabel called out and Bruno looked to his daughter who pointed to the left and Bruno looked over to see a group of red heads, there was a plump woman with four boys of different ages and a young girl. One of the boys, the eldest by the looks of it had an owl and Bruno nodded with a smile.
"I believe we have found some help, shall we go over and ask how to get onto the platform?" Bruno asked and the two children nodded.
"-All right, Percy, you go first" Bruno caught as he walked closer and he watched as the boy Percy ran straight at the wall and then disappeared.
"That is so cool" Mirabel said a little loud and the rest of the red heads turned to look to them and Mirabel blushed before hiding behind her father who chuckled at her, while Harry also moved slightly out of sight.
"First years?" the woman asked with a soft voice and Bruno nodded.
As Bruno turned to look at Harry, he was unaware of a small gasp from the woman.
"Yes, could you please tell us how to get onto the platform?" Bruno asked walking over as Mirabel and Harry hid behind him and Bruno saw that there were twin red heads, who were looking at his daughter and Harry with smirks.
"Of course and it is simple, all you have to do is walk straight at the barrier between platforms nine and ten... don't stop and don't be scared that you'll crash into it... that's very important and also it is best to do it at a bit of a run if you're nervous" the woman explained and Bruno looked to Harry.
"Would you like to go first and find a seat?" Bruno asked the young boy and he shook his head.
"Fred, George... why don't you two go and wait on the other side?" the woman asked the twin red heads and they nodded.
"Sure" the twins said together and Bruno watched as they too disappeared.
"Go on" Bruno said to Harry and he nodded, Bruno watched as Harry ran at the wall and then disappeared.
"Are you from England?" the woman asked and Bruno looked to her.
"No, I am not... my daughter and I are from Columbia" Bruno answered and Mirabel tugged on his ruana so he missed a searching look from the woman.
"Papa" Mirabel whispered holding onto his ruana and Bruno nodded and together father and daughter ran at the barrier.
Bruno was amazed looking around the platform seeing other parents and other students. He saw the twins helping Harry get his trunk onto the train before the young boy got on himself. Bruno could tell that the young Potter was shy and Bruno decided not to bring attention to him.
"Papa?" Mirabel whispered in sadness and he looked at her with a sad smile.
"Alright, mi mariposita... I want you to be good... make friends and most important be yourself, don't let anyone else tell you different" Bruno told her and Mirabel nodded as tears formed.
"I only just got you back... I don't want to lose you again" Mirabel whispered and Bruno pulled her to him and kissed the top of her head.
"Mi mariposita... I won't be leaving any time soon, you are stuck with me..." Bruno tickled Mirabel who giggled "Estoy tan orgullosa de ti Mirabel" Bruno told her and Mirabel hugged him.
"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt... do you need some help getting the trunk onto the train?" Bruno looked up to see one of the twins with their mother just behind them.
"Thank you that would be a massive help" Bruno told them and the twins got the trunk onto the train.
"You two truly can be good" their mother muttered and the twins looked at her.
"Bruno, there you are..." Bruno looked over and saw Amelia Bones heading over with Susan just behind as well as another young girl with blonde hair "oh hello Molly... you are looking well" Amelia stated seeing the woman.
"Madam Bones, it is good to see you" Molly replied with a smile and Bruno slowly got up as Mirabel looked at the adults.
"Amelia, it is good to see you again..." he reached into his ruana and grabbed the pile of letters "I should have given these to you last night, they were in Marlene's vault..." Molly gasped.
"Marlene... not Marlene McKinnon" Molly asked looking at the man then to Mirabel and Bruno nodded.
"She was my wife, this is our daughter Mirabel" Bruno told her and there was shock on Molly's face.
"You look so much like..." Molly went quiet and Bruno wondered what she was going to say.
"Who are the letters for?" Amelia asked knowing that the pain about Marlene was still fresh for Bruno and before Bruno could reply, he looked up to the clock and saw the time before gasping and Molly looked up as well.
"Fred, George, could you please help the girls get on board? The train will be leaving shortly" Molly told the twins and they nodded.
"I will see you at Christmas, mi mariposita" Bruno told Mirabel and she nodded, she followed the twins aboard and Bruno watched as the conductor whistled as parents waved goodbye to their children.
"Ginny" Molly called out as the young girl ran alongside the train and the girl stopped staying in sight of her mother.
"Who are the letters for Bruno?" Amelia asked softly watching the train pass by and Bruno looked at her.
"There is one for you, one for a Edgar and Catherine Bones..." Bruno flipped through the letters and handed the two letters over.
"My brother and his wife... oh" Amelia whispered as she looked at the writing on the letter.
"I am sorry... here, I wrote the list down" Bruno handed her the letter as well as a piece of paper that Amelia nodded gratefully at and read it over.
"Sirius Black? Why would Marlene leave a letter for him?" Amelia asked with a tone of anger as she looked at Bruno who frowned hearing the anger.
"Who is Sirius Black?" Bruno asked softly and Amelia looked to Molly before back to Bruno.
"There is so much you need to learn about Wizarding England..." Amelia sighed heavily putting the letters in the inner pocket of her coat "let me read these letters and I will get back to you... how should I contact you?" Amelia asked looking at him and Bruno bit his lip knowing that he had to get back to Encanto.
"I live in Colombia, in a place called Encanto... you can ask Minerva McGonagall, how you can get there?" Bruno told her and Amelia raised an eyebrow.
"Sir... would you like to stay at my house till Madam Bones reads those letters?" Molly offered as Amelia looked to the slightly older witch with surprise and Bruno looked at her with shock as her daughter watched the adults.
"That is a good idea, Molly..." Amelia looked back to Bruno "Bruno, I know you want to return home, but it would be best if you remain here in England, just till I read the letter, I need to head into work to get my aurors sorted out for the day and then I shall be over to The Burrow later today" Amelia told him and Bruno looked at her running a hand through his hair before he frowned and looked to Molly.
"The Burrow?" Bruno asked with a tilt of his head causing both Molly and Ginny to blush slightly different reds.
"It is what my home is called... my in laws gifted the land to us after our wedding" Molly explained and Bruno nodded with understanding.
"My home... my family and I call it Casita... which normally in Spanish means cottage... but now calling it Casita just feels right... gives the home more personality" Bruno told the two women.
"Well, I best be off, I shall see you both later" Amelia stated and Bruno nodded then he watched Amelia disappear on the spot with a silent pop.
"So that was the silent pop travel thing... I sadly do not see Mirabel use that form of travel, she will find another one" Bruno thought to himself and he looked back to the mother and daughter.
"We shall take the floo" Molly stated calmly and Bruno looked at her confused.
"Floo?" Bruno asked confused at the strange word and Molly nodded.
"Don't worry, i will explain it" Molly explained and Bruno smiled gratefully at her.
The two were next to the fireplaces and Molly was talking Bruno through how to use it. Soon Molly, her daughter and Bruno were in the small lounge well more Bruno slid into the couch after exiting the fireplace and then it was just a waiting game.
On the train
Mirabel watched as the station and her father disappear behind walls before exiting showing buildings and homes rushing past the window. She sat down with Susan and Susan's friend, while the twins left for elsewhere and Harry was elsewhere on the train.
"It will be alright, you will see your father at Christmas" Susan told Mirabel and she nodded sadly.
"I know... it is just, he was not in my life for 6 years... I am worried that he could disappear again or someone in the village could force him away" Mirabel replied looking to Susan's friend with a question look and Susan looked to her friend in shock.
"Oh, I am sorry... Mirabel, this is my best friend Hannah Abbott... Hannah, this is Mirabel... how do you say your last name again?" Susan asked with a small pout causing Mirabel to smile.
Just then there was a knock at the door and Mirabel saw that it was Harry looking nervous holding his owl, who was in the cage.
"Is it alright, if I can sit here with you, Mirabel" Harry asked softly and Mirabel nodded as did Hannah and Susan.
"Of course, have a seat..." Mirabel then looked to Susan "my surname is Madrigal" Mirabel replied and Hannah nodded her head.
"I'm Harry Potter" Susan and Hannah gasped with shock at Harry's name reveal.
"Why were you with Mirabel's dad? Before the Weasley twins helped get you onto the train" Susan asked curious and Harry looked down, however before he could answer there was another knock at the door, the Weasley twins were there with their younger brother.
"Would it be alright with you lot, if our brother Ron sits with you" one of the twins asked and the others nodded.
"Behave Ron" the other twin stated looking firmly at Ron, who looked down and the other twin sighed.
"We want you to make friends, you shouldn't sit alone in a compartment" the twin stated and Ron nodded.
"We will come back later on" the first twin stated and then closed the door behind them.
"Sorry, about that" Ron stated and Mirabel smiled at him.
"They care about your well being, what are their names again?" Mirabel asked and Ron looked at her.
"Their names are Fred and George, but I can not tell them apart... they like to change names" Ron told her and Mirabel nodded.
"Thank you and it is nice to meet you" the introductions went around again and Ron looked shocked at meeting Harry.
"Do you really have the scar?" Ron asked looking now in awe of Harry and Harry showed the scar.
"You know that was really rude of you" Mirabel stated crossing her arms and everyone glanced to her.
"Why was it rude, he defeated You Know Who?" Ron stated and Mirabel looked at him pointedly.
"And yet you forget what else happened that night, my father and I only learnt the events when I got my letter and not even all of it till last night" Mirabel stated causing everyone to look at her in shock.
"What else happened that night?" Ron asked looking lost as did Susan and Hannah and Mirabel sighed looking to the three.
"Estúpido..." to Ron before looking between the three "Harry lost his parents that night" Mirabel said slowly and Ron blinked before his eyes widen and the three looked down sadly.
"I think a lot of the Wizarding World forget what you lost Harry" Susan whispered and Harry looked out of the window.
"Oh... I... I... sorry Harry" Ron said blankly and Harry sighed looking to the red headed boy.
"You won't be the first to say it, but thank you Mirabel... I am sorry as well" Harry said and Mirabel looked into Harry's eyes.
"Why are you sorry?" Mirabel asked with a tilt of her head and Harry blushed.
"Before I got onto the train I overheard what your father said about your mum... has she passed away too?" Harry asked and Mirabel nodded.
"Yes, she has... my father and I only learnt the truth when I got my letter" Mirabel replied and Susan bit her lip before hugging Mirabel who smiled gratefully and then the door opened again.
"Excuse me... oh hi Mirabel... I was wondering where you were?" a girl said from the doorway and Mirabel smiled at her
"Hola Hermione, it is good to see you as well" Mirabel said getting to her feet and she saw just off to the side a young boy looking shy.
"Neville, is that you hiding there?" Susan asked with a small smile and Neville poked his head in.
"Hi Sue, hi Hannah... I was wondering if any of you have seen a toad" Neville asked looking at the group and Mirabel looked at him.
"Sorry, we haven't... what is your toad's name?" Mirabel asked sweetly and Neville blushed.
"Trevor, his name is Trevor" Neville answered and Mirabel smiled.
"I will be right back" Mirabel stated and she ran out of the compartment.
"Does anyone know what she called me?" Ron asked softly and Hermione looked at him.
"Did she call you something in Spanish?" Hermione asked as she sat down and Neville sat next to Susan.
"Yeah... she did, but I am not sure how to say it" Ron replied and Susan looked to Hermione.
"Mirabel called Ron estúpido" Susan stated and Hermione raised an eyebrow.
"Oh... it means stupid, did you say something mean? Or stupid?" Hermione asked looking to Ron and Ron turned red from embarrassment, but he nodded.
"Stupid, I said something stupid and I now realise it was wrong of me to say" Ron replied softly and Hermione saw that the other boy that in looked down.
However before Hermione or anyone could say anything, Mirabel returned with her hands full of a fat toad.
"Here you go Neville" Mirabel stated as she handed Neville his toad and he gave the toad a few soft pats down the back.
"Thank you, how did you get him?" Neville asked softly looking to her and Mirabel smiled at him.
"I asked one of the older students to summon him" Mirabel replied and Neville smiled while Hermione blushed.
"I should have thought of that" Hermione said and Mirabel shrugged.
"We are all nervous about entering this next chapter of our lives... and I... I am scared that my papa would disappear again" Mirabel said and everyone looked to her.
"You said something before about your village, but what do you mean by disappear again?" Hannah asked softly and Mirabel swallowed.
"My family... they each got given a gift... we get them at five years old, well six years ago... it was my turn and well... I did not get a gift and my papa left to protect me... my tia Julieta and tio Agustin raised me for the six years... then madam McGonagall came and it was revealed my papa was living in the walls of Casita..." Mirabel told everyone giving everyone a smaller version of the full story and Hermione hugged her as did Susan.
"Your father will be there for you when you return at Christmas" Hannah stated and Mirabel smiled at her.
"You know, your father looks like a older James Potter" Ron stated suddenly causing Harry look over to him in shock before looking to Mirabel who was also in shock.
"He does?" Harry asked with a tilt of his head and Ron nodded.
However Neville and Susan looked to each other with questioning eyes, they had a silent talk and both nodded.
"Yeah, your dad had black hair that was messy and hazel eyes" Ron replied and those that did not meet Bruno looked to Mirabel.
"My papa... he has long slightly curled black hair and brown eyes" Mirabel told them and Harry looked down.
"I have never seen a photo of my parents" Harry admitted and Mirabel, Hannah, Hermione hugged him.
Neville and Susan gaped at him and nodded to each other again to contact their guardians to get photos of the Potters and even other Potters.
"We can ask Headmaster Dumbledore for photos, maybe even memories... he promised me to show me some of my mother" Mirabel told him and he smiled at her.
"You know, now that you say it, he really does... I will have to ask my aunt to send me a photo of him and Lily and you can keep it.. it is only right that you can see what your parents looked like" Susan replied calmly and Harry smiled at her.
"I will write to my gran as well, I know we have photos of the two" Neville stated and Harry smiled gratefully at the two of them.
"Thank you" Harry replied and before anyone could talk the door opened with force as well without any kind knocking or manners.
"So it's true... what others are saying all down the train that Harry Potter's in this compartment" everyone turned to see a pale haired boy standing the middle of the doorway with two other boys just behind him and looking straight at Harry.
"Get out Malfoy" Susan growled looking angry and the boy scoffed.
"What are you going to do about, Bones?" Susan stood up and Malfoy looked to Harry with a smirk "You know Potter, I could show you..." Mirabel cut off the boy getting angry at the rudeness of the boy.
"You know, it is polite to introduce yourself or better yet knock before you enter a compartment" Mirabel stated and the boy glanced at her.
"Shut it, mudblood" Malfoy told her and Mirabel stepped back in shock and the McKinnon heiress ring hit the sun light and Malfoy's eyes widen in shock seeing it.
Before the boy could say anything, Susan spoke up again.
"We do not want you or your minions in here, Malfoy, get out" Susan growled at him and Malfoy glared at her before looking back to Harry.
"You..." Malfoy was cut off by a voice in the hallway.
"What is all the shouting?" the group turned to see an older blonde haired teen standing there with his arms crossed "Malfoy.. of course it is... my father and mother warned me that you and your little friends would be joining Hogwarts this year" the teen growled and Malfoy glared at him.
"And what is it to you, Diggory?" Malfoy growled and Diggory raised an eyebrow.
"Just leave us alone, Malfoy" Susan said and Malfoy glared before looking to Harry and then to Mirabel.
"You will go the way of your parents" Malfoy stated leaving with his silent friends and Diggory looked into the compartment.
"Are you all good?" Diggory asked with concern and they nodded.
"Thank you for coming Cedric..." Susan said and Diggory smiled at her.
"Happy to help get rid of unwanted trash and that kid and his little minions will always be unwanted around me and those that I call my friends" he replied and he looked around the compartment and Susan blushed.
"Oh, everyone this is Cedric Diggory, he is an old family friend..." Susan then introduced everyone and when it came to Harry, Cedric smiled at the younger boy, but to Harry relief made no special gushing about the night he lost his parents.
"It is nice to meet you all" Cedric said and he then was called by someone down the hall.
Time passed as the rolling green hills flew passed and the group of first years got to know each other and Mirabel was happy to be making friends. There was still the deep worry within her mind but she hoped it was just nerves and everything would be alright once classes start and she gets into a routine.
"We shall be arriving at Hogsmeade station in 10 minutes, will everyone get into their school robes and first years, you will be greeted by Rubeus Hagrid, who is the Keeper of Keys and Gameskeeper of Hogwarts, also your trunks shall be taken up to the castle and placed into your house dorms once you are sorted" the conductor announced and the boys left to allow the girls to get dressed and then the girls left to let the boys get dressed.
The train pulled into the station and as students got off, Mirabel paused at the door before taking a deep breath and got off.
"You alright?" Susan asked with concern and Mirabel looked at her.
"Just... this is still so new to me... the nerves were hitting me hard" Mirabel replied and Susan nodded as Hermione grabbed Mirabel's hand.
"We walk into the school together" Hermione stated and Mirabel smiled at her while Susan joined Hannah.
"Firs' years! Firs' years... over here! All right there, Harry?" a large man called out and Mirabel's eyes widen at the sight of him and then she remembered Harry talking about meeting Hagrid and how the man helped Harry around Diagon Alley.
Mirabel noticed that Hagrid was beaming over the sea of heads and holding a lantern.
"I hear he is quite savage" Mirabel heard near by and she turned to glare behind her only to see Malfoy with his two friends and a very ugly girl with a hard looking face and Mirabel turned away.
"C'mon, follow me... is that all of the firs' years?" Hagrid called out looking to the older students.
"Found one more, Hagrid" a female voice called out from the back and Hagrid nodded.
"Right... thank you... mind yer step, now! Firs' years follow me!" Hagrid bellowed and the group of first years followed him down the path being mindful of their steps.
The first years were either slipping and stumbling along the path as they followed Hagrid down what seemed to be a steep, narrow path. It was so dark on either side of them that Mirabel felt like she was walking through the forest surrounding Encanto and she stumbled and Harry caught her.
"Are you alright?" Harry whispered as he walked besides her and she smiled at him.
"Yes, I am not the biggest paths of these types of paths" Mirabel replied softly keeping her eyes down and watching where she steps as Harry nodded in understanding.
"So yeh'll get yer firs' sight o' Hogwarts in a sec, it is jus' round this bend here" Hagrid called out and Mirabel looked in awe as she and Harry rounded the bend.
"Oooooh!" many said with surprise and awe.
"She's beautiful" Mirabel whispered sensing the magic from the castle.
Mirabel looked over the dark lake and smiled seeing that atop a high mountain on the other side, with its windows sparkling in the starry sky, was a vast castle with many turrets and towers. Mirabel swore to send photos to her papa and family.
"Now no more'n four to a boat!" Hagrid called out and Mirabel glanced down to the edge and saw Hagrid pointing to a fleet of little boats sitting in the water by the shore.
Mirabel walked down with Harry, Ron and Hermione to the little boat and together they got in.
"I am so glad that I decided to come here" Hermione whispered to Mirabel who nodded in agreement.
"Everyone in?" shouted Hagrid, who had a boat to himself and was at the front of the group.
"Yes" many called out and Hagrid chuckled at the response.
"Right then - FORWARD!" Hagrid yelled tapping the tip of his boat with the lantern and Mirabel jumped slightly as the little boat fleet started to move, gliding across the lake and Mirabel looked at the night sky reflected in the water.
"I will make my family proud" Mirabel thought as the boat fleet got closer to the castle.
It towered over them as they sailed nearer and nearer to the cliff on which it stood.
"Heads down!" yelled Hagrid as the first boats reached the cliff; they all bent their heads and the little boats carried them through a curtain of ivy that hid a wide opening in the cliff face.
The boat fleet glided through a long tunnel, which seemed to be taking them right underneath the castle and Mirabel gasped as did many others as the boats reached a small underground harbour, where once the boats stopped everyone clambered out onto rocks and pebbles. Then they clambered up a passageway in the rock after Hagrid's lantern, coming out at last onto smooth, damp grass right in the shadow of the castle. They walked up a flight of stone steps and crowded around the huge, oak front door.
"Anyone missing?" Hagrid asked and there was silence which caused Hagrid to nod and then he turned to the oak door raising his fist and knocked on the oak doors three loud times.

Chapter 7
Amelia's office
Ministry of Magic
London, England
1st of September, 1991
11:45am
As Amelia arrived at the Apparition spot for the department of law enforcement, she walked at a quick pace and round the corner where she first saw Kingsley Shacklebolt entering from the other entry point.
"Shack, could you please go and get me the Pensieve" Amelia said to the man, who nodded and went through another door as Amelia entered her office and sat down heavily.
"Marlene, why do you have a letter for Sirius Black?" Amelia wondered looking at her desk, not yet pulling the letters out from her robe.
"Madam Bones, here you are" Kingsley said coming into the office with a large dark grey bowl and Amelia looked at him as he placed the bowl down on the desk.
"Please close my door, don't let anyone disturb me" Amelia told him and he nodded and closed the office door behind him.
Amelia took the letters out from her robe and looked at them, her thoughts going a mile a minute if wonder and questions. She took another steady breath, laying the other letters on the desk and holding her letter. She gently opened her letter, where it slightly expanded to let two vials out, one was the normal silvery blue memory vial, however the other was emerald green which got Amelia's attention to seeing the different colour memory vial.
"You always amazed me with your family magic, wish you could have taught me that spell" Amelia whispered before pulling her letter out and opening it.
Mei Mei,
Amelia felt tears form seeing her old nickname written out in Marlene's elegant writing and she took a breath wanting to see what her best friend wrote.
In this letter contains two memories, I will explain them shortly, but first I am so sorry I never told you or anyone that I got married but as you know there was battles happening and I thought it best to keep my marriage a secret for as long as I could.
You know, I bet you and Bruno will be amazing friends... there is something you must know about Bruno, he is a true seer and I just know there is more to his power... the emerald green vial is something that Bruno saw, you have to watch that one first and I hope you got this quick for time is critical. However, I fear something might happen before I can get these to you... I have a few plans in place that will only happen if certain events happen and I hope they happened right.
The second vial is just a simple memory of you and I by the lake chatting about our then boyfriends and you finding out that Remus was a werewolf... I still think too this day and beyond believe that the you two would have made a cute and charming couple.
Please keep safe and please Mei Mei... confess to Remus, ignore all those horrible bigots and tell Remus you love him. You and him were an amazing couple and he truly did care for you.
From Mars
Amelia dropped the letter the her desk and look to the vials as tears formed in her eyes.
"Mars... I really miss you" Amelia whispered and she picked up the emerald green one and poured it into the Pensieve.
Vision (Amelia's point of view)
Marlene walked into a room holding a baby walking through a barrier, which Amelia realised was a soundproof shield spell and Amelia watched as Marlene walk over to a crib and gently place the baby in the crib and placed the baby in, Amelia noticed there was another shield protecting the crib and then walked over to the larger bed where fast asleep was a man that had black long hair that was slightly curled and he was moaning like he was in pain.
"Bruno" Marlene called out with concern and she walked over.
Amelia watched as the man shot up and his eyes glowed green and then Amelia saw sand rise around the room and Marlene quickly jumped onto the bed and grabbed Bruno's hand.
Then there was a scene showing around the dome and Amelia gasped seeing Lily standing there, her red hair tied into a pony tail as she looked down to Harry, who was sleeping in a crib.
"Lils... are you sure you want to do this?" James asked as he hugged Lily from behind.
"Sirius... he is right that everyone will know that he is the secret keeper, he would not be able to stay in one place... he volunteered to be a decoy and he will be able to keep the Death Eaters away from Peter" Amelia gasped "I just hope we are doing the right thing" Lily whispered and James kissed the top of Lily's head.
"We will be fine, I love you so much, my dear sweet Lily" James whispered and the vision stopped as Marlene gasped seeing the glass tablet showing the outcome.
Which then caused her to scream seeing the image, her scream woke Bruno and Amelia saw that there on the emerald glass were the dead bodies of Lily and James Potter.
End of the memory
Amelia shot out of the Pensieve, gasping with shock seeing the memory with a hand over her heart and then her eyes widen realising what she just watched.
"MOODY! SHACKLEBOLT! GET IN HERE NOW!" Amelia yelled then there was running and her door opened with force revealing the two men as well as others looking into the room.
"Amelia, is everything alright?" Alastor Moody asked entering the room followed by Kingsley.
"Close the door" Amelia stated calmly getting her thoughts and emotions back under control and Kingsley closed the door.
"Madam Bones?" Kingsley asked looking at her with worry in his eyes and Amelia looked at the two men.
"It is time that we right a wrong that was done" Amelia said calmly and then nodded her head to the Pensieve, which the two went in to watch and Amelia looked to the other vial and she swallowed before shaking her head.
"I am sorry Marlene, but I am happy just raising Susan for Edgar and Catherine, I am not looking for love anymore" Amelia thought and she watched the two men as the watched the memory.
Hogwarts
Scotland
The group of first years and Hagrid only waited a few seconds before the oak doors swung open and Mirabel smiled seeing Minerva McGonagall standing there, wearing emerald green robes and looking over the group of first years with stern eyes. Mirabel caught Minerva's eye briefly and she smiled seeing her there then Minerva looked towards Hagrid.
"The firs' years, Professor McGonagall" Hagrid stated formally with a bow of his head and Minerva nodded her head.
"Thank you, Hagrid. I shall take them from here... head to your seat in the hall" Minerva stated and Hagrid nodded and walked off.
"We are here, we are finally here and to train our magic" Mirabel heard Susan whisper to Hannah and she swallowed as Minerva pulled the oak doors open to show a beautifully lit stone walls with flaming torches that cast dancing shadows along the walls, Mirabel saw that there was a stunning marble staircase welcoming them showing that they led to the upper floors.
Mirabel could feel magic that felt like Casita flowing within the walls, yet the magic felt more ancient and also felt like it was sleeping with only small bits being used. She looked around and saw no one was paying attention to her so she gently placed a hand on the wall and then there was a flare from within.
"Follow me please" Minerva stated taking Mirabel out of her thoughts and she vowed to find out what the magic flare was that hit her.
Mirabel and the rest of the first years followed Minerva across the stone floor, where Mirabel could hear in the distance voices echoing somewhere near by and she swallowed telling herself that she was going to be alright and to trust in herself.
Minerva led the group to a small empty chamber just near another set of oak doors and Mirabel felt the nerves truly setting in before she took another breath calming her mind.
"First years, welcome to Hogwarts, in just a few moments you will be escorted through those doors..." Mirabel saw Minerva point to the other set of oak doors "and be sorted into your houses and once you are sorted the start-of-term banquet will begin..." the thought of food caused Mirabel's stomach to growl softly "your future house will be something of a family within Hogwarts" Minerva explained and Mirabel swallowed as her nerves started hitting again and she tried to get her mind to calm down to help settle her nerves.
"I hope papa is alright" Mirabel thought to herself as she listened to Minerva tell everyone about the houses.
"So while you are here at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points while any rule-breaking will lose house points...at the end of the year, the house with the most points wins the house cup... which is a great honour and so I hope that each and everyone one of you will be a credit to whichever house becomes yours... I shall return in a few minutes to take you to be sorted, but I suggest you all smarten yourselves up as much as you can while you wait" Minerva stated and then she looked over the first years before leaving the area.
"How does one get sorted?" Harry asked softly looking at a few other kids and Ron looked at him.
"Fred told me it was some sort of test and that it hurts a lot... but I think he was joking" Ron replied and there was a scoff.
"We are not told as per tradition, Weasel... why are you scared of a little test?" Malfoy stated in a mocking tone and Mirabel glared at him.
"No, I am not scared and guess what I can already see my brothers pranking the heck out of you, snake" Ron growled glaring to the pale blonde boy and before anyone could reply there were screams and front first years which included Harry, Ron, Susan, Malfoy and Mirabel to turn around.
Mirabel's eyes widen in shock for there in front of her were several pearly-white and slightly transparent ghosts and they all seem to be arguing as they glided across the room, none of the ghosts hardly glanced to the group.
"Forgive and forget, I say, we ought to give him a second chance.." a ghost that looked like a monk stated calmly and several ghosts shook their heads.
"My dear Friar, haven't we given Peeves all the chances he deserves? He gives us all a bad name and you know... he's not really even a ghost... he is a poltergeist.." Mirabel's eyes widen, she knew of poltergeists, they were the unrest spirits and caused a lot of disturbances and mayhem "I say, what are you all doing here?" Mirabel looked up to see that one of the ghosts wearing a ruff and tights looking at them.
"Oh... it is the beginning of a new year, you are all first years... all about to get sorted..." the monk floated down to look at each of them "I hope to see you in my old house of Hufflepuff" the monk stated with a smile and then Minerva returned.
"Greetings to you all..." the ghosts turned to look at Minerva who returned "students, these are some of the many ghosts that reside here in the hallowed halls of Hogwarts, they are all willing to help you find your way if get lost or if time escapes you" Minerva told everyone and the monk bowed.
"It is our pleasure to help each student of Hogwarts" the monk stated and Minerva nodded as everyone watch the ghosts head to another wall and they disappeared.
"Now... please all form a line and follow me" Minerva stated and everyone got into a neat line, Mirabel was between Susan and Hermione.
The group walked out of the empty chamber and towards the oak doors as Mirabel tried to calm her nerves. Mirabel felt the magic flow around as the oak doors opened and she gasped as she entered the banquet hall and she looked around just stunned seeing how the hall was set up.
There were thousands and thousands of candles floating around the grand hall, that reminded Mirabel of Día De Las Velitas (Day of the Little Candles) and she felt sad that she would not be with her family when the day actually happened. The candles in the hall were floating above the four long tables, where the rest of the older students were sitting and Mirabel looked over to the front of the hall where there was another table, where the teachers were sitting, on each of the tables were glittering golden plates and goblets. As the group got closer to the front of the hall, Mirabel looked up to see the ceiling and saw the night sky which the book A History of Hogwarts spoke about.
"Papa, this place is truly magical, you would love it here" Mirabel thought and she stopped with everyone else as Minerva stopped in front of a four-legged stool just on top of three steps and on top of the stool sat an old looking hat that was patched, frayed at the edges and it looked sad and dirty.
Mirabel tilted her head as she watched with a surprise as the hat started to sing and Mirabel wondered what house she would be sorted into. Would be her ancestor's house or would it be another.
Once the song was over, Minerva stepped forward and rolled out a piece of parchment.
"When I call your name, you will come up here and sit on the stool to be sorted..." the first years nodded "Abbot, Hannah!" Mirabel heard Hannah gasp before the girl slowly walked up.
"HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat called out with it's voice echoing around and Mirabel was happy her cousin Dolores was not here, the sounds would have hurt her sensitive ears.
Mirabel watched as one by one, her year group got sorted and then it was her turn after Ernest Macmillan was sorted into Hufflepuff.
"Madrigal, Mirabel" Minerva called out and Mirabel took a breath and went up to sit on the stool.
"You are very difficult to place... you are loyal to your family yet you want to prove yourself that you are worthy of your place... hmm, while your ancestor would love if you were in her house, no... you would not be sorted into Ravenclaw... hmm, there is truly one house for you to show your true self... before I tell you your house, I will tell you that you will find out a few secrets within these halls and I sense that you might wake her up fully..." the hat stated calmly and Mirabel looked worried.
"Her?" Mirabel questioned and the hat chuckled.
"Hogwarts, she is much like your Casita... but the memory of her being alive in a sense was lost in time" the hate revealed and Mirabel felt for Hogwarts and vowed to help bring her back.
"So that is why the magic I felt... felt weak and mostly asleep" Mirabel whispered and the hat hummed.
"You will wake her, when it is time for her to be awaken... now for your house" the hat stated and Mirabel took a breath.
"I am fine with whatever you pick, you are who the founders chose to sort the students" Mirabel said and the hat chuckled.
"Thank you for that dear one, there are not many that realise that, Mirabel Madrigal... your house shall be GRYFINNDOR!" the hat shouted and there was clapping as Mirabel took off the hat and went down to where Hermione sat and the two smiled at each other,
Mirabel watched the rest of the sorting and when it came to Harry's sorting, there was a tense air around and Mirabel looked worried at Harry.
"Two hat stalls... that has not happened in a while" Mirabel heard near by and she looked confused.
"Hat stalls?" she asked the twins who were sitting near by.
"I will explain after the sorting, young miss" the ruff and tights ghost stated and Mirabel nodded.
"Thank you" Mirabel replied and she looked back to Harry.
"GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted and her new house went crazy to her shock as the cheering echoed around her.
"We got Potter! We got Potter!" the Weasley twins shouted as Harry sat down opposite Mirabel.
The hall got quiet when loud bangs happened and the sorting continued before finally the last student, a boy named Blaise Zabini got sorted into Slytherin.
"Welcome..." Mirabel looked to the teacher's head as she watched Minerva take the hat and stool into another room before returning and walking to her seat next to Albus "welcome to a new year at Hogwarts..." Albus was beaming looking around the hall "now before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words..." Albus smiled "and here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!" Albus said which had Mirabel confused, however before she could ask, she gasped in surprise as there in the middle of the table was filled with different types of foods that she had never seen.
"Could you please tell me what some of these are?" Mirabel asked looking to the strange looking foods and Hermione smiled at her.
"Sure, so that there is a Yorkshire pudding... I am not sure if you would like it" Hermione explained with an unsure tone and Mirabel raised an eyebrow.
"Why do you ask?" a student with dreadlocks asked and Mirabel looked at him.
"I am from Colombia..." there were surprised looks at Mirabel's answer.
"Why are you here? There is a school in South America for you" a boy with short blonde curly hair stated in a uppity tone.
"Cormac, that is rude" a girl hissed and Cormac looked at her.
"So... she has a school in her country, why come here? We don't want her here" Cormac replied and Mirabel looked down.
"CORMAC!" the girl growled loudly and Mirabel bit her lip.
"My mama was a student of Hogwarts and... my papa and I did not know of Castelobruxo till I got my books and read them" Mirabel said and Hermione glared at Cormac.
"Well, what is her name? I doubt she is someone important" Cormac asked in the same uppity tone not hearing the past tense and there were a few glares sent his way before Mirabel looked at him, her eyes flashing with anger.
"My mama's name was Marlene McKinnon..." there were gasps from around the area "and I never got to meet her, so why do you think I would come here? I want to get to know her and even find her friends" Mirabel growled and there were many that looked shocked and then there were whispers while Cormac scoffed.
"McKinnon... you are a McKinnon..." Cormac was cut off by another.
"I would be careful of how you speak, young one..." everyone jumped as silence fell in the hall with everyone watching the Bloody Baron float near the Gryffindor table near the second year Cormac McLaggen "I knew Marlene and her family, she was a sweet heart and her lost hurts me greatly... she was one of the few that did not fear me, she spoke with me when many of my own house don't..." Cormac swallowed while the rest of the hall looked shocked as the ghost turned to Mirabel "I am the Bloody Baron, it is a pleasure to meet you young McKinnon... it warms me that the McKinnon did not all die that horrible day" the baron stated and bowed to Mirabel which shocked everyone in the hall.
"It is a pleasure to meet you as well" Mirabel replied with a small blush and the bloody baron smiled at her.
"I can see your mother in you, you have her kind eyes and I believe you might have her temper... what is the name of your father?" the baron asked curiously and Mirabel smiled.
"Bruno Madrigal" Mirabel replied with a smile and the baron's eyes widen in shock.
"I have heard of the family from other ghosts, please come and see me over the weekend... there is someone I wish for you to meet" the baron stated and Mirabel nodded.
"Of course" Mirabel replied and the baron looked to the ruff and tights ghost.
"Nicholas, you are to protect young Mirabel Madrigal, she is your charge" the baron stated calmly and Nicholas nodded placing a hand over where his heart was.
"I shall, baron" Nicholas stated and the hall watched as the baron floated out of the hall and then the whispers started.
"The McKinnon family lives on" someone whispered which echoed around the hall and Mirabel looked around then up to the teacher's table.
"Everyone please, let's continue our banquet and leave young Mirabel Madrigal to eat her dinner" Albus stated standing up looking over the hall and Mirabel looked at her plate not feeling like eating anymore.
Hermione looked at her with worry while Ron looked over to his brothers with concern on his face, Percy frowned towards Cormac. While up at the teacher's table Albus looked down he had hoped that Mirabel's family would be hidden a bit longer to allow her to get use to Hogwarts and lessons.
"Sorry Marlene for letting that get out of hand" Albus thought to himself and he looked to Mirabel who was taking small bit of her food.
Soon the feast was over and an older student looked to Mirabel with worry, so she walked over to her as she saw another first year try to get Mirabel's attention.
"Mirabel... it is time to head up to the dorm" Hermione said and Mirabel looked at her slowly before nodding.
The older student felt relief seeing that the other first got Mirabel to her feet, so the older student joined Percy in their duty to guide the first years to the dorm room.
The Gryffindor first years followed Percy through the chattering crowds, out of the Great Hall, and up the marble staircase. They climbed more staircases, yawning and dragging their feet and Mirabel felt homesick as she feared her father might go back into the walls of Casita and she was grateful to Hermione for helping her keep up.
"It will be okay, I am so sorry for Cormac... he is not very Gryffindor..." Mirabel looked to her right and saw an older Gryffindor student "I am Melody Higgins, I am the sixth year prefect, while Percy is the fifth year prefect" Melody said and Mirabel smiled at her.
"Thank you, Melody" Mirabel replied softly and Melody nodded.
"Percy, I will take the girls the other way to the tower, then we will change it tomorrow morning" Melody called out to Percy and looked to her.
"Sure" Percy replied with a nod of his head and the girls followed Melody into another hallway.
"There is another reason why I did not want that way..." the girls looked at each other "the way that Percy is taking the boys is where Peeves the poltergeist is waiting for the new Gryffindor first years, he likes to pick on the first year Gryffindors every year then he will go and tease the other houses" Melody explained and the first years nodded.
"Is Peeves dangerous?" Hermione asked and Melody shook her head.
"No, he is just a pest and prankster, loves to cause chaos and mayhem for everyone" Melody replied and soon she led the girls to a portrait of the plump woman wearing a pink silk ball gown.
"Password?" the woman asked which shocked Mirabel and Hermione seeing that the painting was talking and Melody smiled at the painting.
"This is the Fat Lady, she is the guardian to how common room and only Gryffindors can enter and before you ask... she is a magical painting that holds few memories of her human self" Melody explained and Mirabel looked at the woman, she vowed to find out the woman's name.
"What if someone from another house and told her the password?" Hermione asked and the Fat Lady gasped with a hand over her heart.
"I only allow those with red and gold ties through here... now Miss Higgins, the password so these young girls can get some sleep and be ready for their classes" the fat lady stated and the first years nodded.
"Caput Draconis" Melody replied and the woman smiled with a nod as the portrait swung open and the group entered.
The girls gasped as the entered the room and Mirabel looked around seeing squashy armchairs scattered around the room as well as tables and chairs. The walls were red and gold with portraits scattered along the walls.
Melody lead the girls up the spiral staircase at the right hand side and soon Melody opened a door and Mirabel entered and she gasped.
There were four four-poster beds with deep red velvet and at the feet of each bed were their trunks.
"I will come and get you for breakfast" Melody told them and closed the door and the girls went to their beds and got dressed into their night clothes.
After Mirabel opened her trunk, she gasped softly for there on everything was the letter her mother had written for her to read on the train trip to Hogwarts and Mirabel felt tears form for she felt that she failed her mother in not reading the letter.
Mirabel got dressed and grabbed the letter before closing her curtains and with shaking hands she opened the letter and a small vial fill out.
Mi pequeña milagro,
I am so sorry that I was not there to see you off to my second home, I hope you had a good train journey... I have a feeling that you may have forgotten about this letter and that is fine for I want you to make friends.
The train journey to Hogwarts is always the best way to find friends with no house in the way and let me tell you, I met my best friends on the train ride and I would never regret it.
My best friends were Lily Evans and Alice Greengrass, who were sorted in Gryffindor with me while our other friend Amelia Bones was sorted into Hufflepuff. We stood side by side through the trials that Hogwarts threw at us, we were there for the heartbreaks and for the triumphs.
Mirabel, no matter what house you are sorted into I will be proud of you and all I ask is to just be yourself, but also stand up for yourself... h ave courage and be kind, mi pequeña milagro.
Please forgive me for leaving you and your father, but I will be always watching over you and I shall always be in your heart.
Also the tiny vial holds a memory of me singing to you, when you were a baby... your father had a lullaby for you, so I made one for just us. To listen to it, you can go up to the Headmaster's office which is located on the second floor in the hallway where there is a gargoyle statue at the end. If an Albus Dumbledore is still headmaster, his passwords are always some type of sweet.
I love you my darling Mirabel, study hard and have fun
Con mi amor eterno
Marlene Madrigal
Mirabel cried as she finished the letter and she hugged her pillow before glancing to the tiny thin bottle that held the memory of her mother singing and she looked at the time which was showing 12:24am. Then Mirabel remembered and she took a breath.
"Fawkes" a flash of flames appeared with a soft thrill "hi, I am sorry, did I wake you?" Fawkes shook his head softly "I was wondering if you could help me to see something my mama left for me... it is a memory of her singing to me when I was a baby" Fawkes thrilled and held out his tail and Mirabel softly grabbed Fawkes' tail and then there were flames.
"Good evening, Mirabel... I hope you had a good dinner" Mirabel jumped and turned to see Albus standing there at the top of the stairs leading to the second floor of his office.
"I did, sir... till that boy questioned me and I got angry" Mirabel replied looking down and Albus sighed.
"I have alright punished young McLaggen, he has already had points taken away from him and has been assigned to detention, his behavior was not welcomed at the feast" Albus told her and he walked over to her.
"I knew that... my mother would have been revealed, it was only a matter of time... seeing as I am wearing the McKinnon heiress ring" Mirabel told him and Albus nodded.
"Now, why did you call for Fawkes? When you should be asleep in bed ready to start your lessons" Albus asked softly and Mirabel handed the letter over to him.
"It is a letter from my mother, I forgot to read it on the train, so I decided to read it before bed and I wanted to know how you could help" Mirabel explained as Albus read it and he had a sad smile as he handed the letter back.
"I can help you... I have a special ancient memory viewing device" Albus walked over to the panel area that showed soft waves.
"I love the panels, sir" Mirabel commented and Albus smiled at her as the panel revealed a simple stand that held a bowl, that had the appearance of a shallow stone into which runes and strange symbols were carved around it and precious stones also on the sides.
"Thank you, my dear, now this here is called a Pensieve... it is a device that your ancestor created to view memories" Albus explained as Mirabel walked over and show the vial to Albus to smiled and softly took it and poured it in.
"How do I watch it?" Mirabel asked and Albus smiled at her.
"By stick you head in the bowl and you will be able to see it... do you want me there with you?" Albus asked her and Mirabel bit her lip before shaking her head and Albus nodded and then did as Albus told her.
Memory
Mirabel landed in her father's room at Casita and she saw her mother pacing slowly around the room holding baby her.
"Constant as the stars above
Always know that you are loved
And my love shining in you
Will help you make your dreams come true
Will help your dreams come true
The lamb lies down and rests it head
On its mother's downy bed
Dolphin plays in the moonlight's glow
And butterfly dreams of a violet rose
Dreams of a violet rose
I'll cradle you in my arms tonight
As sun embraces the moonlight
The clouds will carry us off tonight
Our dreams will run deep like the sea
Our dreams will run deep like the sea
Constant as the stars above
Always know that you are loved
And my love shining in you
Will help you make your dreams come true
Will help your dreams come true" Marlene sung softly as she rocked baby Mirabel softly and soon the memory finished.
End of memory
Mirabel pulled out and fell to her knees as tears fell and she felt the soft feathers of Fawkes under her chin as the phoenix started to thrill in a sad tone.
"It will be alright, shhh, it will be alright" Albus whispered as Mirabel felt someone hugging her and rocking her softly side to side, she felt her eyes getting sleeping as her mother's lullaby echoed in her mind.
Albus felt Mirabel fall asleep and he looked at her then to Fawkes.
"Take her back to her bed, stay with her till the sun is up" Albus told Fawkes who nodded and he watched as the phoenix flamed away with Mirabel and Albus stay sitting on the stone floor and he glanced to the Pensieve before waving his wand and the panels shot back up.
