The next day

Isabela stirred awake feeling drowsy. she was freezing as her body started to shiver. she look next to her and there was her stranger healer. Sleeping in a chair with her ruana covering her face she wish she would let her see the face underneath but right now she rather just let her leg heal*

Mirabel:are you gonna speak or just keep staring at me?

Isabela flinched and looked away embarrassed*

Isabela:sorry i...

Isabela stopped talking when she felt Mirabel's hand on her forehead she looked at Mirabel's eyes her glazed over hazel eyes. There was slight concern in those eyes*

Mirabel:looks like the adrenaline finally left you're system giving what you've been through in the last what? 3 days? you either have a cold or a fever

Isabela:hm...you're eyes are so pretty

Mirabel:... definitely a fever

Mirabel said walking back a slight blush on her face as she was about to leave the to the kitchen when she heard something. The sound of a food landing on the ground. Her head snapped behind her seeing Isabela trying to get up*

Mirabel;what are you doing?

Mirabel said tightly concern evident on her tone as Isabela looked at her, her head spinning slightly side to side as she smiled*

Isabela: to the kitchen

Mirabel walked up to her and put her hands firmly on Isabela's shoulder*

Mirabel:no. You need to rest you'll only make things worse for yourself you are still very injured

Isabela:but i don't want to be alone...

Mirabel:look I'm just going to bring you some food I'll be back soon i promise

Isabela shook her head no, bad idea since it made her headache worse. Mirabel gave a frustrated sigh*

Mirabel;if i take you with me where you can see me will you promise not to move?

Isabela nodded yes with a huff Mirabel grabbed Isabela like a princess, she flinched a bit when she felt Isabela snuggle close to her"

Isabela:mh...you're warm...

Isabela mumbled then giggle in her fever haze. Mirabel not knowing how to react just ignored her and walked outside the room putting Isabela softly on the couch while she walked to the kitchen where Isabela can see her*

Isabela:what are you doing...?

Mirabel;making you chicken soup mixed with some plants that should help you

Mirabel only heard a humm as a response as she got to work. Hearing Isabela sneezing and coughing made fear grow inside her as she starts to cook faster her hands trembling a little. Isabela closed her eyes as she felt so weak she could barley open her eyes, her eyelids felt so heavy. That's when she felt something on top of her she gathered enough strength to open her eyes, her vision was blurry but she saw her healing walking back to the kitchen without her ruana. Isabela looked down and sure enough Mirabel's ruana was on top of her like a blanket, Isabela cuddled closer to thing feeling a sense of calmness she hasn't felt in decades, inhaling the smell of her mysterious stranger she couldn't help but get intoxicated by it as she looked at the woman in the kitchen she could finally see her backside of her face and hair*

Isabela:you have such beautiful hair...

Isabela mumbled loud enough for Mirabel to hear she stopped cutting vegetables for a second before she continued not saying a word*

Isabela;Mirabel had you're hair it was so pretty and free i miss it...i miss her...

That did make Mirabel fully stop and glance at Isabela her eyes closed as she let sleep overtake her*

Mirabel:wish i could say i missed you until recently i didn't...

Mirabel looked back at her task feeling a sense of guilt and disgust inside herself as she finished cutting the chicken with one strong chop as Mirabel breathed heavily*

Scene change

Isabela frowned slightly as someone was shaking her awake. A sneeze made its way past her nose, which lead to a groan. Her throat was sore, her nose was clogged. She felt like she couldn't breathe*

Isabela:just let me sleep vieja chancluda...

Mirabel:I'm younger then you

Mirabel said with a matter of fact tone as Isabela slowly opened her eyes seeing her healer she jumped a bit seeing the person wear a wooden mask that hides her face but not her hair*

Isabela:why are you wearing that?

Mirabel:reasons. Now sit up straight slowly soups ready

Isabela:I'm not really that hungry

Mirabel:eat it anyway if you want to feel better you'll have to stomach it

Isabela let a small groan escape her throat as she slowly got up letting the ruana fall from her body she looked at it on the floor As she went to pick it feeling it and looking at it she could see the faint letters of a name That's been lost with age and wear*

Isabela:you're name starts with M?

Mirabel froze and looked at the ruana cursing under her breath as she forgot uncle Leopold send her ruana to be embroidered a few years back*

Mirabel:...what about it?

Mirabel said in a harsher tone then she meant. It made Isabela flinch and look down*

Isabela:n..nothing sorry just curious...

Mirabel sighed and rubbed the back of her head*

Mirabel:no...I'm sorry i shouldn't have talked to you in that tone. Yes my name starts with M that's all you're getting since we've only known each other for 3 days at the most. I.don't.trust.you.

Isabela:understandable s..so soup?

Isabela said in a nervous tone trying to move passed this. Mirabel grabbed the bowl and gave it to Isabela. Well almost the moment she saw Isabela's hands still trembling, Mirabel took a deep breath out her nose as she grabbed the spoon and put it close to Isabela's mouth who in part looked surprised*

Isabela:what...what are you doing?

Mirabel:i would rather not have to clean up the mess you're hands would create if i gave you the bowl now open up before it gets cold the warmth will unclog you're nose

Isabela grew a small blush out of embarrassment as she put her hair behind her ear and blows on the spoon softly. Mirabel was feeling a mix of annoyance and happiness since Isabela looked so cute doing that. Isabela ate the soup and slowly they repeated the process until the bowl was empty*

Isabela:thank you I'm sorry for being such a problem i..I'm not normally like this

Mirabel:oh? Then how are you normally?

Isabela: well...perfect, remember my abuela alma Madrigal made me do everything perfectly I'm just surprise those old habits haven't made themselves known

Mirabel:if they do I'll be sure to call you out on it since I'm not going to be you're servant

Isabela:mh...no you're more like my knight in shining ruana

Isabela giggled softly making a smile to appear on mirabel's face. That smile gave way to confusion as she saw yellow spots they were light in color almost invisible but Mirabel could see it in her good eye, fear started to grow inside her*

Mirabel:Isabela...did...did you ever touch something that say...looked magical in that forest at night? Before you came here?

Isabela:hm? Oh there was this flower it was so beautiful that i had to touch it, it was the oddest thing it just turned in to dust the second i touched it, all that dust touched my body and disappeared why? Is that bad?

Mirabel:no, no that's...a very common flower out of encinta

Isabela:encanto.

Mirabel:yeah that...

Mirabel lied feeling more fear grow inside of her. Isabela hummed and fell asleep again*

Flashback

We see her and Charles walking in the forest at night, hunting went long so we see them walking back home as quietly as possible, Charles moved his hand making Mirabel stopped. She looked in front of her and saw a bed of flowers that shined like the sun, Mirabel and Charles witness a family of bunnies hopping to the flower bed the second they touched the flower it had different reactions for the rabbits one turned the size of the house, another turned rabbit growing canine teeth and lunched at another, a final one turned in to some kind of grotesque humanoid híbrid making Mirabel sick as the sight of it was horrifying something out of those h.p. Lovecraft books

Jack showed her. Charles and Mirabel slowly backed away until Charles stepped on a branch breaking it all the rabbits looked at them*

Charles: run

Present

Mirabel "those flowers have different effects each time god knows what will happened do her"

Mirabel:...

Mirabel did something she hasn't done since she was 5. She got on her knees and started to pray*

Mirabel:god...i know it's been a long time since I've talked do you but to be fair you did screwed me over go...s..sorry. god please make sure my sister is safe, please i don't want Isabela to die...

Mirabel took off her mask and gave Isabela a soft kiss on her forehead*

Mirabel:amen...
