Derek Hale Pov
Ugh what hit me. It feels like I got dragged halfway through the woods by two pre nerdy teenagers.
"Oh good morning sunshine. Well it's afternoon by now. You really know how to sleep late."
Is that Satan? I open my eyes to see the devil sitting in a chair in semi casual clothes drinking tea. Blood red hair, glowing green eyes that send a shiver through your spine. Yea definitely Satan.
"What happened?" I asked Ezra.
"You got shot by wolfsbane bullets. My guess Kate. Tweedle dumb and ditz dragged you here sometime before 3. By the way that's 3 Favours you owe me now. Saving your life is worth at least 2 correct?'
Sigh. "Yea, yea, 2 more. Once you deal with the devil you're already caught anyways."
"I resent that. Lucifer is in Los. Angeles. He wears too much cologne. Mother occasionly goes to Lux to hang with Mazikeen."
What? The devil is real? And owns a club in L.A? Huh the more you know. Wait back to point Derek. "Ugh. You said Kate shot me? Why? I thought we Hales has a non-aggressive pact with all the major hunter families. They understand as one of the original Packs we hold authority on all the wolves."
"Exactly. You can't understand a man like Gerard yet Derek. The minute he creates disorder everything goes to hell. The day when humans find out about the supernatural en masses, things get bad for us. There are no Nemetons to produce mist like the age of the gods anymore. The secrets are open. How well they stay secret depend on us. And right now we have our secret being threatened with Peter running around. He's lost control and you know what happens if an Alpha loses control Derek. We don't need a repeat of that time."
Sitting fully up on the sofa I look the young sorcerer in the eyes again. A mellow gold that enraptures you. I'm reminded of something Deaton once told me.
"For every Major Pack there are connections. Druids, Witches, Mages, each their own ways. Your mother was one of the strongest alphas around. But she was never alone. She had the help of Me, and Irene Belserion. Irene is and will be one of the strongest mages in history. She created magic purely for slaying dragons. You'll have a long way to go to bringing your family back to where it should be, but thats on you now Derek. Don't be afraid to make those connections."
Breaking out of my thoughts I look back at the young mage who's saved my life. "Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Kill Peter."

Ezra Pov
"Alright Lydia, so what do you think today's lesson is gonna be?" Right now I'm with Lydia again in the indoor gym of my house. Wearing some standard workout gear we were standing about 3 ft from each other.
"Flying?" Ugh. Ever since she learned she could levitate I swear she's always trying to find a reason not to stand on the ground.
"Today we're focusing on your senses. You're sensitivity to sound is greater than you think." I walk over and hand her a blindfold. "You're exercise is to find me with purely your hearing. I won't make a sound so focus in something other than my voice."
"That's it? Sounds easy enough." She takes the blindfold and puts it on without a care. Seeing her do so,
I slowly push off into the air and slowly float around the room not speaking. I watch her stand still trying to focus on my position when I see she catches it for a second, I move my position right as she turns her head in the spot I was.
Oh that quick? Alright then Lydia let's play. And that what we did for 3 minutes I circled around her until I figured she was focusing on my heart beat. That's bad. So I pull out an old favorite. A sonic Beacon and ...
WEEEEEEEEEEEE
"Aaah Fucking Shit!" she shrieked as her hands snapped to her head and I turned off the Beacon putting it back into my pocket. A second later her blindfold is off and she's marching in my direction more pissed than a fire hydrant. "What the hell Ez? What that fuck was that?"
"That is what happens if you put too much focus on one thing specifically. It's a super sense of hearing which comes with its own weaknesses. What would normally be annoying at regular levels of super hearing becomes lethal warfare if you're listening too hard."
Her eyes told a unique story of rage and understanding intertwining constantly. Her mind understands it was an effective way for her to learn this lesson while her heart still wants to yell at me. So naturally I take the high route.
Casting some auxiliary sky dragon magic I start flying a few feet off the ground. "Now let's continue. 4D combat. For beings that can fly, or ride mounts, or even climbs walls, the usual methods of 2 people standing on the ground slugging it out doesn't work. with the added dimension of height brought into the factor you have to be aware of what's in front of you, behind you, above you, and beneath you at all times. Even if you're fighting your opponents won't wait for you to make sure you're high enough not to crash into something. Ceilings and low hangings won't move to your convenience. Air currents don't move for you they move you so be careful you don't get floating off course, also be careful of dust and dirt and in heavy weather twigs. You have to become comfortable in the air while being aware just how high you are at all times. Questions?"
I look over to see Lydia still wobbly trying to walk in the air a few feet off the ground. Trying being the operative word, as every white girl does, Lydia literally trips on air and falls flat on her face. I take a deep breath and try to rationalize how we got to this point anyways.
**Kim Possible Ring tone**
"Oh one second Lydia,....hello?....Mazikeen?.....Outside....yea sure I don't care. I'm training Lydia right now though...yeah I know right it's weird I was putting it off but then she just started"
"AHEM, IM STILL HERE!"- Lydia
"Yea I'll come open the door in a sec. Yup, bye."
"Mazikeen? Who's she?" Lydia asks walking over with two water bottles holding one out to me. I took a swig of that pure h20, yo it's magically delicious.
"She's a demon I know, she likes running over here whenever Lucifer starts making a jackass of himself. Especially since Beacon Hills is only a few hours from L.A."
"...the devil is real?" Lydia asks as her eyes goes wide "Im going to hell. Oh my gosh, the devil is real and I'm going to hell? Here I am stressing over flying and I'm going to hell."
"Lydia? Lydia?" I shrug my shoulders and leave the broken banshee sitting there contemplating her existence and walk to the front door. I see her silhouette boredly leaning on the column and I get excited.
I swing the door wide open and can't stop myself from grinning, "Well who ordered the succubus?"
Mazikeen grins bringing her arms around me for a hug "Good to see ya Ezra."
"Likewise" I end the hug and close the door making sure it stays shut an locked with a nifty enchantment ma taught me. I start leading her back to the training room and ask the question "What brings ya up to Beacon Hills? Not that I'm complaining but still."
"Lucifer is being weird about a blonde. Started creeping me out to be honest."
We walk into the room to see Lydia pacing back and forth writing a list that say 'Steps to Heaven'.
"LYDIA!" I yell getting her attention "This is Mazikeen the right hand demoness of Lucifer himself. "
Her eyes goes wide as she faints on the spot. Sigh this is gonna be a long day.
