A/N: Hey y'all. Welcome to this wonderful little one-shot series of two characters who really need more stories about them. Now I know that you all want this as much as I do, so send me prompts so I can see what I can do. In the meanwhile, keep an eye out for the chapter story that inspired me to write again. Without this idea, I'd have probably never gotten back to writing fanfiction for you guys. And you wouldn't have gotten "A Midnight Snack" either. So without further ado, I give you Esteban and Isabel one-shots!

Disclaimer: I do not own Elena of Avalor. That belongs to Disney and the ever precious mind of Craig Gerber.

ENJOY!

Elena Ball Z:

Estéban's Finest Moment

Prologue

Darkness, darkness as far as the eye can see. That's all that Estéban can see until he opened his eyes to the night sky, filled with stars.

That's not right; I should be in the castle.

Sitting up, he groaned in pain and rubbed his neck.

Why do I hurt so much?

Then came the flashbacks: The guards, the warning, the enemy, a flash of light, Isabel- Estéban opened his eyes in panic as he realized he was with Isabel and he doesn't see her.

"Isabel? Isabel?! ISA!" Estéban yelled as he frantically looked for his cousin, finally finding her unconscious a few feet away from him on her side. He sighed in relief and crawled over to her, the pain in his legs too overwhelming for him to walk.

When he was near her, he started to reach out for her arm to wake her up. "Come on Isabel, time to wake up-" Her skin felt like ice upon touching her.

Estéban's eyes widened in panic as he got to his knees and started to shake Isabel's shoulder. "No, no no no no no no NO! Isa, WAKE UP!" But she doesn't. Then he turned her on her back and saw dried blood on her shoulder. Another flashback came, and it was an arrow being shot into Isabel's shoulder. Not seeing the arrow anywhere, he surmised that he pulled it out before passing out.

But, she didn't lose that much blood. Why isn't she waking up? WHY IS SHE SO COLD?! Estéban was starting to get more panicked as he tried to do everything he could to wake Isabel. "Isabel? ISABEL?!" He started to hyperventilate and cry from fear as he holds his cousin close to him to share his warmth with her. "ISA?!"

"Oi!" Came a female voice.

Estéban opened his eyes and looked up. Standing in front of him was a teenage girl looking around 15 with white skin wearing a blue tank top with matching pants and a blue sash around her waist. Her silver hair was loosely braided and hanging over her left shoulder. But her eyes, they looked very unnatural to him. Her right one was a regular blue eye that looked like any other, but her left was green with the pupil of a cat with three twisted spikes surrounding it: one on top, one to the side away from the bridge of her nose, and one on the bottom. She had her arms crossed and her eyebrow raised. "Need some help?" She asked.

Estéban took some time to review his options before the girl just decided to crouch down and examine Isabel. "Her pulse is there, weak, but still there. Her breathing is shallow…" Then Estéban thought he saw her right eye turn red, but it happened so fast he thought it was just a trick of the light.

"Shit." Said the girl, who then took Isabel in her arms and started walking away before Estéban could react.

"Wha- Hey! Come back here with Isabel!" He yelled.

The girl stopped and turned to him. "I thought you would follow. Can't you walk?" After trying to stand up again, he shook his head no. The girl sighed, reached into her sash and threw something towards him. "Catch."

Estéban caught the item and looked at it. A bean. She gave him a bean. Estéban looked at the girl with a confused look, which made her sigh in annoyance. "Just eat it."

Estéban looked at the bean with suspicion before eating it. At first, he felt nothing, but after a moment he suddenly felt his pain disappear! He tried standing again, and he didn't feel any. He could walk again.

The girl just rolled her eyes and started walking away from him. Estéban eventually caught up with her and started talking. "Who are you? Where are we going? And what are you doing with Isabel?"

The girl glanced at him as they were walking. "We're going to a friend of mine's house. Hopefully, while we're there, I'll have better lighting to examine your granddaughter more. As for the who, it's Dasha. Dasha Trickster. You?"

Estéban's eye twitched at the word granddaughter. Yes, he was much older than his cousin, but people don't really view him as her abuelo right? Right? But, he still decides to introduce himself. "I am Estéban Flores, Chancellor of Avalor. And the person in your arms is Isabel Castillo Flores. The youngest princess of Avalor. And my cousin."

Dasha stopped and looked at Estéban incredulously. Then she looked down at Isabel. Then back to Estéban. She does this a couple of times before speaking. "COUSINS?! What's the age difference between your parents for this to happen?!" She then starts rambling.

Estéban sighs and waits for the girl to calm down. After she does, she asks another question. "What do you mean 'Chancellor' and 'youngest princess'? And what is Avalor?" It was then that Dasha took a closer look at the outfits the two were wearing: a blue dress that looked ragged with blood on the shoulder with white tights on Isabel, and a red coat with coattails long boots a fancy sash and fancy pants that also looked ragged and ripped on Estéban. There also appears to be a brooch on the coat. Dasha groaned and started walking again. "Crap, we're dealing with some interdimensional shit, aren't we?" Before Estéban could answer, Dasha spoke again. "Hey, you mind telling me what happened on the way there? It'll be a while."

Estéban sighed and nodded, feeling like he might've remembered everything that happened. So, as they walked, Estéban started to recount what happened before he woke up in the forest.

I LIED! THIS IS THE STORY THAT INSPIRED ME TO WRITE AGAIN! Sorry for tricking all of you, but I had to if I wanted to keep the surprise. Don't worry, I'll change the title and summary when we get to chapter two. Just, be prepared. ;) Also, the character Dasha Trickster is my OC, so I own her. See you all in chapter 1, which I PROMISE is coming soon!
