Prologue

In the mountains of Columbia there lived a place Encanto. It was filled with ordinary people, but it was also the home of the Madrigals. 50 years ago, Alma Madrigal, her husband Pedro, their newborn triplets, and many other refugees were escaping from conquistadors.

Pedro had sacrificed himself in order to save his family, leaving Alma devastated. Then by some sort of magic, a candle Alma had became magical and fended off the attackers, and created a large house called Casita that was self aware.

Five years later, Alma's triplets, Bruno, Julieta, and Pepa received gifts from the magic candle. Bruno was given the power to see the future, Julieta was able to heal people with her cooking, and Pepa could change the weather with her mood.

Each of them were given special rooms in the Casita, and inside were things that matched their gifts.

As the years went by, Julieta and Pepa met Augustin and Felix, got married, and had kids. And when those kids turned five, they too received magical gifts. Julieta and Augustin's first daughter, Isabela was given the gift of growing flowers.

And Pepa and Felix's daughter Dolores gained the gift of super hearing. Julieta and Augustin had another daughter named Luisa and was given the gift of super strength. Then Pepa and Felix had a some named Camilo, who gained the power to shapeshift.

But then everything changed, when Julieta and Augustin had their youngest daughter, Mirabel. When she turned five, and it was time for her to get her gift, something happened. When she touched the doorknob to her forming door, it disappeared and she was left without a gift.

Everyone was shocked and confused. Alma asked Bruno to look into the future, and see if there was a reason why Mirabel hadn't received a gift. When he did, the vision that came out was odd. The picture showed an older version of Mirabel in front of the Casita.

Only it was strange, because if you tipped it to one side the Casita was whole, and it you tipped it to the other the Casita was in shambles. When Alma saw it she was shocked. This meant that the family, their magic, their home, and the miracle was in danger.

From that day on, things changed a lot for Mirabel. With no special gift of her own, she felt like she wasn't good enough. Alma's demeanor towards her changed. She was now cold, indifferent, and often spoke to her in a harsh scolding tone.

And even the rest of her family seemed to look down on her. She was overshadowed by her older sisters, and her cousins, aunt, and uncle sort of ignored her. However, her parents and Uncle Bruno still showed her love and kindness.

As the years went by, Mirabel stayed in the nursery, since she never got a room of her own. She did get some company when her cousin Antonio was born. And even though she didn't completely like her situation she tried to stay optimistic and not resent her family too much.

That's the prologue, plz review and no flames
