The chapters following this will be longer (Had slight problems uploading this...)

It's a beautiful day when Camilo strolls around town playing with the kids. No matter how big they get, they are all still fascinated by the gifts the Madrigals possess. He is in the middle of shifting between three kids when he notices a family he's never seen been before. Two people who seemed to be the parents, and two people around his own age - a girl and a boy. They don't look like they are from Colombia at all since they all have blond hair and fairly bright skin. The girl looks around in awe and seems curious about the surroundings. Camilo goes a little closer but as soon as she turns around, he shapeshifts into an older man, so she doesn't notice him. The towns people seem very shy and drawn back which makes the family a little unsure. Even the Madrigals are a little nervous about the idea of strangers in their village. Mirabel however tries to calm them down and goes to greet them, with the rest of the family close behind. Camilo shapeshifts back into himself and walks up behind the rest of the family, almost hiding.

"I see we have some visitors, hi there!" she says.

"Hi, we are so sorry for disturbing you. We are on traveling foot, and we came across your beautiful little village." the daughter says with a very apologetic expression.

"Travelers, huh?" says Mirabel a little doubtful. On a closer look she can see the girl's blue-green eyes, and her blonde hair that's braided half way down her chest. Her family is not all too different for her, except that the father has a little darker blonde hair than the rest.

"Yes, we were just wondering if you might have some water to spare? We will be on our way again as soon as possible." the daughter says again after noticing the village people. Mirabel spins around and notices how everyone is on edge.
