A/N: It's rare for me to do initial notes in a chapter, however, I decided to do one here (lol). The thing is, after this week's episode, and the fact that we are having to wait for 3 weeks for the next episode, we need something light.

No evil mastermind Pierce, no rampage Maze, and no crazed Lucifer. And what is even better… Marclo went to the grave. What exactly happened here, but Marcus didn't get what he wanted, he wasn't particularly evil in this little AU I made, either. Chloe just discovered he wanted to use her somehow, she didn't have the details tho. Not yet :P

Marcus here just got away as he did, because I love Tom Welling, and in respect to him, I'll keep his assholeness (I'm pretty sure this word doesn't exist, but whatever) at bay. He made Pierce a character I loved to hate… I was liking the seemingly innocent Lieutenant and his bromance with Lucifer, but now all is dead, and he made such a perfect villain that I must applaud him. But he will be forever my favorite Clark Kent. I grew up with him on the TV. Love you Tom Welling *hearts eyes*

PS: Would you believe that when Lucifer fought with Amenadiel about Cain, I had the same worries as the Big Bro? Because I did.


Chapter Four: Let's be honest

"Okay, Lucifer, we are all here. So, what you want to talk?" Maze crossed her arms in front of her chest and glared at the rest of the people in his living room. All except for Trixie.

It was a surprise for everyone invited when they met each other at the entrance of LUX. It was a way awkward elevator ride. A demon, a fallen angel, and the first murderer cramped in that small metal box, it was a miracle how things didn't escalate to the third World War, they all guess the Devil wouldn't be happy if they destroyed his precious nightclub. But the surprises didn't end there, as soon as the almost cataclysm to World War III arrived at their destination they found three people waiting for them, in a domestic situation.

Lucifer was serving Linda and Trixie dinner, and laughing at something they said when the three immortals walked into his house, and after a heated debate between the parts, in which Trixie was watching with a little grin over her lips, they settled themselves. Resulting in the situation they were then, in which the presence of any one of them was explained. Both Amenadiel and Pierce were surprised by Trixie's presence, but she was quick to explain: She knew, and she didn't care.

Lucifer cleared his throat and gave one of his characteristic cocky grins. "As it was hinted from our invitations," he indicated both Trixie and Linda, "we are here to discuss the disclosure of our identities to our human friends."

Pierce shot one of his eyebrows up. "Why would you think we would agree to this? Normal human people aren't ready to deal with the divine."

Maze was scowling but kept quiet. Lucifer glared at him and spoke before Amenadiel could, the older angel was mid-way of formulating his first words.

"I know, but our presence in their life, so many of us, showed how much affected they are by our presence." Lucifer grabbed his tumbler of whiskey. "Charlotte had Mom riding her body and now she has memories of hell, Chloe was used in order to get someone killed and is a miracle, Dan came in contact with an angelic blade and resisted it, Ella is the least affected, but she is close to a demon and me, so yes, they are entitled to know." He finished with finality.

"Luci…" Amenadiel started. "I can understand that, but it's always dangerous to reveal our identity to humans, you know that. Most of them attack what they can't comprehend." He had to put some sense into his brother's mind. "And you know well, as I do, that divinity can be dangerous for humans."

Lucifer sighed and took a long sip of his drink.

"And not knowing puts them in even more danger, Amenadiel." He answered. "Your stunt with Malcolm not only put the Detective's life at risk but also put Beatrice's. Daniel touched Azrael's blade and almost started a murdering spree, but he resisted, he has something in him. When Mom was almost exploding, Chloe and Daniel were there not even understanding the danger of extinction they were in." He said seriously, his voice growing a little at the end. "All the experiences we had so far had shown me that not knowing had put them more in danger than it would have if they knew."

That little speech rendered people quiet. Trixie, still enjoying her dinner, was observing each of the adults in the room, and before any of them could speak again, she decided to speak.

"Don't you think that is unfair, to your friends, if you don't trust them enough to tell them the truth?" She said it too innocently and gently, that made Amenadiel and Maze stop. "I mean… I know you are afraid, but a little faith in them is enough."

The Lieutenant that was immersed in his thoughts came forward. "The two of you have a point. Friends deserve the truth, not that I can call them friends, but the three of you? They know you. And besides, not knowing, with the three of you being so close to them, can be more a danger than a protection." He gave a self-depreciative smile. "It made susceptible for being used against you without them knowing. If they knew about us, they would understand what threat I was when dating Chloe, and many things would have been avoided." He paused before adding. "And in the future, something worse can come along."

Lucifer raised both his eyebrows in surprise, from all the people in that room, he didn't exactly expect Cain to be the first to agree. But then, he was the one that had used of his friends' ignorance against them, what others could use also like he pointed out. Maze grumbled but didn't say anything, her mind working on every piece of this conversation.

"Ahm…" Linda started uncertainly and blushed a little when all eyes came to her. "For my personal experience," she grimaced a little when she remembered that encounter with Mom, "and professional assessment, I will tell you something I told Lucifer months ago. I chose to be your friend, knowing all odds, I knew the risks when I opposed the Goddess of All Creation. I was aware of what I was getting into, and I do think they also deserve this, they deserve this leap of faith. All you have to do it's to show you are still the same people they know, not some stupid depiction of people that not even met you guys."

Maze frowned more, but then Trixie caught her attention and the little girl gave her an encouraging smile. Trixie would never let her mom ditch Maze, she knew that. A small smile graced Maze's lips, not one of cocky confidence, or glee for another exciting hunt, one sweet and gentle.

"I can try. I think we should tell them the truth." She nodded, looked at Lucifer with determination. "I think is the time we come clean. And is pain me to admit, Cain has point." And Lucifer smiled at her, one of his sincere smiles, one he would give her sometimes.

"That's how we talk, Maze, dear." He beamed at the demon, that scowled again.

"Do not push, Morningstar." She answered. "I'm glad you asked first this time, though."

Lucifer nodded, while Pierce shook his head at the exchange of words. Amenadiel was silently hearing at them all and finally spoke his mind.

"I don't think Father would approve such a thing…" He was interrupted by Lucifer.

"We are not here to think what Dad would approve or not, we are here to do the right thing for them. Give them back their choice. And in a way, protect them from future manipulations." The Devil said with finality, and his brother nodded at the end.

"Alright, you have a perfectly good reason with which I can agree. But, how are we going to do that?" The older angel finally said.

At those words, Trixie, that had already finished her dinner, rose from where she was seated pulling a big piece of paper, where it could see childish drawings of people in a house.

"I took the liberty to prepare the plan." She acted all pompous and proper, imitating Lucifer in his flamboyant gestures. Pointing at the drawing she started. "Two weeks from now we will have a big State Holyday, what we are going to do is to take a small vacation." She spoke with all innocence and cleverness it was so much Trixie.

The adults that weren't part of the initial three were frowning at how that would even work. That's why Lucifer intervened.

"What dear spawn here is saying is that I have a propriety not too far from Los Angeles, in which is close enough to other humans to not scare them, but that gives us enough privacy to do what we need to give them the complete truth." He gently patted Trixie's head, earning some raised eyebrows at his fond gesture at the child. "I know the Detective, as well as Daniel and miss Lopez, don't take a day off for a long time, so they deserve it, so does Charlotte. I will invite them, myself, and you, Cain, will grant them this leave, you will insist." The Devil spoke with a little nuance of an order, what made Pierce scowl a bit. "And the rest of us will follow because I will say it would be a small vacation with friends."

"Using this 'vacation' will create the perfect relaxed environment this particular revelation requires, as well as to create a good net for them to cope." Linda continued, reinforcing the idea even more. "They will be reassured by the presence of other humans, so they won't feel threatened, and I will be there to help them individually when the time comes."

Those words were enough to assure Maze, Amenadiel, and Pierce, and from that point on they started to discuss how they would break the news and fixing some little details to make sure that little vacation would work. Their discussion came to an end when Lucifer kicked all of them out of his house when he noticed Trixie slowly drifting to sleep on his leather couch.

That made Maze snicker at how Trixie had the Devil wrapped around her little finger, and for the first time in a long while she exchanged a knowing glance with Linda. But it lasted just a few seconds. While Amenadiel smiled softly at the thought of how much his brother has changed, he wasn't the Lucifer he left in LA seven years ago, he was a new Lucifer, not quite the Devil, not quite Samael either.


Three days later, Chloe, Dan, Ella, and Charlotte were surprised one day when they received a very expensive-looking invitation for a Vacation Trip with friends by Lucifer. And right in the next day, they each received a cup of coffee and personal invitation.

It was way hard to say no when they received the memo from the Lieutenant telling them they needed to take their day off around the same time the vacation was settled to happen.


A/N: Finally, here it's the final chapter of this installment. ;) Now we have only one more one-shot and the revelation! Yay! Let me know your thoughts. How do you think this little vacation will go down? Any particular thing you think should be discussed? Let me know in your comments!

Thank you for all the support!

See you next! Nath :*
