You see, Trixie was what you would call a daredevil. She had already visited several countries, was about to master her third language, went skydiving, learned to play the piano, and against her mother's wishes and a specific demon's hesitation, had already assisted Maze on capturing a few of her bounties.
Trixie Decker was one of a kind, a jack of all trades, a good friend, and of course, she had a lot to live for. Which was why her life began flashing before her eyes as she clutched on to Maze's leather jacket while the demon was speeding past every road sign imaginable to get to the Los Angeles police station via her beloved motorcycle. The seventeen year old's heart was pounding against her chest due to fear for her own life, as well as Lucifer's well being once Maze saw him.
Trixie, approximately ten years ago, attempted to help pull Maze out of a depression. She never knew the reason why Maze had vanished for about a year all of a sudden when she was a kid, but every time she would attempt to text or FaceTime the demon ten years ago, she was always hit with an "I'm busy right now, little human," or an, "I'm going through a lot and I don't want you to see me like this." Little Trixie figured it was because Lucifer had left to, what her mom had explained as, "a long business trip," but, that never really made no sense to Trixie.
Yes, the demon came back on the young Decker's 9th birthday, but Trixie knew when something was up with Mazikeen Smith, despite the amount of horribly wrapped birthday presents the demon presented to her favorite earthling. She was Trixie, she always knew. Of course, she never asked why Maze began drinking alcohol from the second the demon woke up, or why she would always see dark-haired women do the walk of shame out of Maze's apartment on the weekends, or why Maze began taking on more dangerous bounties. She had a whole mess to clean up with her mother, Chloe Decker, as well. When Lucifer left, it was like the two favorite people in her life hit a depression-state. That's why the young Decker had associated both her mom's and Maze's depression with Lucifer's sudden departure.
The difference was, Lucifer came back five years ago, and her mother made a quick recovery. Lucifer and her mom got together, but remained working for the LAPD. Things seemed to be back to normal. Maze, well, she was happy to see him back, but Trixie always noticed that no matter how good things were going for the demon, something was off.
So, when this unknown woman named Eve had showed up to Maze's apartment, Trixie noticed emotions the demon displayed that she had never seen before in her. Of course, she had seen Maze angry, but this was more complex than that. It was like, Maze was hurt, angry, conflicted, etc. Trixie didn't even have time to ask what was wrong with Maze before the demon mumbled a quick "We need to go," and left with Trixie on the route to what the girl recognized as the Los Angeles Police Station.
Maze's motorcycle drifted as it came to a stop in front of the station, and just as it was timed perfectly, her mom and Lucifer were walking out of the building for what Trixie assumed to be another case they were working on.
Maze stepped off the motorcycle and growled as she saw Lucifer. Lucifer on the other hand, smiled at her, oblivious to what was going on.
"Mazikeen! What a pleasant surprise. However it is untimely considering me and the detective have to-" The Devil himself was cut off by the demon clutching his Armani suit jacket and throwing him across the street. Lucifer's body finally came to a stop when he hit a white car, causing the car windows to shatter and the car's safety alarm to blare loudly in the air. Chloe's mouth went wide and she put her hands against her mouth.
"Hi mom." Trixie spoke casually as she walked up to her mother, unsure of what to say.
"Maze! What are you doing-?" Chloe asked, before being interrupted by the demon.
"STAY, out of this, Decker!" Maze growled at Chloe, before turning her head around as she watched Lucifer groan on the sidewalk and attempt to get back up.
"Mazikeen! What the hell are you doing!?" Lucifer shouted as he began to dust himself off and stood up away from the vehicle he had just unwillingly totaled. Maze snapped, and with her demon-like strength, she threw herself at Lucifer, grabbing onto his suit jacket again, until both of their bodies collided against a building that was across the street from the police station. Maze adjusted her grip, and lifted Lucifer up off the ground, her face morphed from her human one to her natural, demon look.
"Well, she's mad-mad." Trixie said to her mom as both her and Chloe watched the chaos unfold. See, Trixie, although her mom hadn't told her that Lucifer was in fact the devil, always knew Maze was different. Growing up, she figured Maze was so cool she could just change her face into a scary-looking demon. As she grew older, Maze did tell her she was a demon, and had even showed Trixie her full form. Trixie thought it was badass, and asked Maze why she had such a cool power. Maze told her the truth about herself, but didn't tell her about Lucifer. Baby steps, of course. That and her mom and Lucifer agreed to tell Trixie the truth when she turned eighteen. How lame, right?
"Devil or not I am going to fucking kill you!" Maze screamed at Lucifer as she pulled him forward from the building wall, only to slam him against it again.
"Mazikeen! What has gotten into you!?" Lucifer shouted, growing increasingly irritated at the abuse he was enduring at the hand of his right-hand demon.
"You let Eve go to Hell, for TEN YEARS." Maze yelled, before lifting Lucifer away from the building and throwing him against another car. This time however, Lucifer tuned into his old ways, and stopped himself inches away from hitting the vehicle. He readjusted the cuffs of his suit before looking at Maze.
"Mazikeen, there's an explanation for all of this. Hear me out-" Lucifer was interrupted by the sharp gliding sound of Maze's knives she had just pulled out from her jacket. She held out one of the knives in Lucifer's direction, and by now, her face had changed back into her normal human one.
"It's not bad enough that you rejected her here on Earth..." Maze began, before making steps in Lucifer's direction. Lucifer brought himself time by taking some steps backwards. "...You let her go through Hell." Maze growled, unaware of the true events that had happened ten years ago, but speaking out of just blind hatred and pure jealousy towards the Devil. "What was it, Lucifer?" Maze asked, flipping her knives over so she wouldn't cut herself from clutching them too hard. Lucifer continued to step back as he listening to Maze. "What was it? Her Hell? Was it...of Adam? ...Of you killing Cain?" Maze asked, before her eyes got wide with fury and she began making a dash for Lucifer. "Of all the times you rejected her!?" Her knife was about to pierce Lucifer, before he moved her wrist away from his body, turned her around, and pushed his beloved Mazikeen against a building wall.
"ENOUGH!" Lucifer's eyes turned red, yet Maze seem unphased and she stared into his eyes with blind, animalistic anger. "Mazikeen, Eve's Hell...had nothing to do with me, or Adam, or anyone of the sort." He replied as his eyes turned back to their normal dark-brown color. His expression fell to one of guilt, but Maze continued to look at him angrily.
"Bullshit!" Maze hissed at him, angrily as she attempted to wriggle out of his grasp. Lucifer sighed.
"I don't lie, Mazikeen. You know that." Lucifer spoke. By now, Chloe and Trixie rushed to the both of them. Chloe put her hands in Lucifer's shoulders. And just like that, the Devil let his right hand demon go. Trixie stood near Maze, so if anything went down, she could at least attempt to hold her friend back.
Maze's eyes fell to the ground in disbelief as her anger slowly began to subside, as well as her rapid heartbeat. "If that's the case then...what was her Hell?" The demon asked. She had attempted to ask Eve, but the resurrected human was too hurt by Maze's words to answer her question, and had left her apartment in a crying statement. It almost made Maze feel...guilty.
"That's a question you need to ask her." Lucifer replied as he began to dust himself off. Suddenly, it hit him all at once. "Maze, how did you know Eve went to Hell?" Lucifer asked. Maze looked up at him.
"Because she's back, that's why." Maze replied, as she stepped away from the building wall and dusted herself off. She put her knives away, and turned to look at Chloe.
"Did you know?" Maze asked her, and Chloe shook her head no.
"No, I had no idea." Chloe responded, then turned to Trixie and gave her a hug. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah mom, I'm alright." Trixie shrugged and hugged her mom back, then she looked at her friend Maze. She would've asked her the same thing, but since that unknown woman showed up at her apartment, things had spiraled out of proportion. The Devil himself look down at the ground in thought as he attempted to put everything together.
"Then that means...she no longer feels guilty." Lucifer smiled, and Maze glared at him. "And if she managed to escape and is as you say, back on Earth, then, Maze...you must speak to her!" He said.
"Pass." Maze answered, and groaned in frustration. This was all too much to take in, and she felt that she had more questions than answers. "Look whatever...I need a drink." The demon asked and began walking away, then turned to Trixie.
"Little Decker, you coming?" The demon asked. Chloe shot up a brow.
"Maze, she's sixteen." Chloe reprimanded, causing Mazikeen to cross her arms and reply.
"So?"
