Encanto: Wandering Through Tokyo

Part One

Mirabel was wandering the globe. She was a brave Colombian girl, and wanted to see the world. And she had taken a cruise ship to Japan. On the cruise ship many crude and disgusting men flirted with her and tried to persuade her that the purpose of cruise ships was illicit relations. She would have none of that. Mother and Father and Abelyua would not be impressed. She would not lower herself to that common behaviour. No, she would wait till Prince Charming from down the street, Daniel Diablo, Jimmie's older brother, finally noticed her. She left the ship and came into – Japan. Mockinbirds flew over head. She had her money already, and found the hotel, and booked in. She started singing 'the family Madrigal' softly to herself as she ate Sushi and Tiramisu for desert, and then wandered off for the night life. She found sultry girls on some streets, looking like washed up extras from bad reality-based manga and anime movies, and it was sad, all dressed in skimpy outfits, and making Pokemon skimpiness look conservative. Hah, Pokemon. The family Madrigal was far cooler than Pokemon, but she watched it sometimes on Saturday mornings, guiltily, because it wasn't on the Disney channel, which she was deeply devoted to. She wandered around, and found a night-bar. She entered in, and Seraphim Daniel and Seraphim Sariel were with Seraphim Gloryel, and they were getting mildly intoxicated to say the least.

'The charming colombian rising star,' said Sariel.

'She is indeed,' said Daniel. 'Very charming.'

'Take a seat,' said Gloryel.

Mirabel sat down, and looked at them drinking Saki. 'That can rot your liver, Seraphim,' she said.

'That's life. But we drink only on rare occasions,' replied Sariel.

'I keep them under control on this bouts,' said Gloryel.

'The family Madrigal is conservative on this issue,' replied Mirabel. 'But I like a little bit of the altar wine at church.'

'Jesus juice,' said Daniel.

'Very funny,' replied Mirabel. She sat there, listening to modern J-Pop, and waved goodbye. She continued wandering around Tokyo, now having met angels, and what was next? She found a river, and sat down, and finished off some of the Sushi she had saved. It was a warm summers night, and she started humming and singing, and noticed more crazy anime ladies walking past. It must be the section of Tokyo she was in. A manga district or something. Crazy people habitated here. She finally went back to the hotel, and eventually got some sleep, as her Tokyo Trip Continued.

Part Two

'What is behind the Miracle Door, Mirabel San?' asked Akira.

'I do not know, Akira,' replied Mirabel.

'It glows green. Luminescent green. This is a good sign,' said Akira.

'Green is my magic? My magic finally coming through?' asked Mirabel, excitedly.

'Yes. Well. Sort of. But in some ways not quite magic. It is green, you see Mirabel san. Like mother nature,' stated Akira.

'Mama nature?' queried Mirabel.

'You are a Green Mother,' said Akira. 'A Rainbow Child.'

'A Green Mother? And what magic is that?' asked Mirabel.

'Not magic. Spirit, yes. But not magic. But Anima protects you. Divine Anima. It protects the Green Mother. The Father of Creation watches over his Green Mothers, Mirabel San. Things happen from the Anima which might look like magic, to protect you though. So you are not too out of place. You speak of your magical family in the Encanto. And you have no gift.'

'No,' sighed Mirabel.

'You have no gift because you can't have a gift. You have responsibility instead. Being a Green Mother. And letting the Anima watch over you and work on your behalf. You are a chosen one, Mirabel. A miracle child. A green mother.'

'I'm not turning vegan,' said Mirabel.

'It is not required,' replied Akira.

'Fine. I'll be a Green Mother,' replied Mirabel. 'What does the position entail?'

'Immortality,' replied Akira. 'And work for the divine. Watching over the natural world. Being a protector of the environment. Being an Earth Mother.'

'Interesting,' said Mirabel.

'The Anima is Spirit. It will protect you. Now go through the green door.'

Mirabel opened the door. She went inside. 'It's just a normal bedroom,' she said.

'Of course,' replied Akira.

'I see,' replied Mirabel. 'Funny.'
