Over the years, Magnus opened up to Stiles, and they thought of each other as brothers. They would do anything for each other. Yeah, Magnus may only be 16, but still.

Magnus was learning everything he could from Stiles, even though it took a while since Magnus couldn't create spells. "I want to learn how to create one!" Magnus complained as Stiles finally sat down.

"How many times do I have to tell you? You're a warlock I am not. I don't know what I am." Stiles raised his voice for the first time, causing Magnus to shut up and look down.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have said anything," he mumbled, still looking at the floor. Guilt instantly consumed Stiles, "No, it's fine. Don't be sorry. It's just stressful sometimes, y'know."

The first time Magnus saved Stiles was 20 years later. Stiles had been drugged and taken by power-hungry vampires. "Tell us how you got your power!" one demanded while Stiles sat tied to a chair with an emotionless face.

"We don't have all night! Tell us, or we're going to take the kid too!" this got Stiles' attention. "Hmm, no, you won't. He knows the rules." Stiles says, staring at the large brick wall of an underground basement.

Whistling fills the air, making Stiles laugh knowingly, leaving the vampires to look around clueless. "You forget. We have magic." Stiles then saw a blue flame coming from the shadows.

"So, are we going to do this the easy way or the hard way?" Magnus says, confusing the vampires even more. With every other word, he moves around the room, out of sight.

"Come out and face us, coward!" the head vampire yells before Magnus is snaking the blue flame around her leaving her unable to move. Letting out a maniac laugh, Stiles unties the pathetic ropes and leaps free.

"Let's have some fun." He cheers as Magnus pulls the blue flame tighter around the vampire. The other two vampires leap towards Stiles, ready to attack. However, Stiles is faster; he freezes them in thin air before they hit him.

Intimidatingly walking to the vampires, Stiles slowly and brutally lets his darkness take over, carving their eyes from their heads, leaving them crying, begging for death.

Did Stiles fulfil that? Nope, he and Magnus left arm in arm, laughing as the vampires screamed. "Well, that's one way to train you," Stiles says to Magnus as they walk through the woods.

Unless they had a death wish, people avoided "The Duo Not To Mess With." Every supernatural was scared of them and their power, meaning they all made a pact to work together and attack them collectively. Summoned that day were the Shadowhunters.

Stiles and Magnus knew of their plans and managed to get the seelies to join them, leading to every supernatural turning on each other to gain power. With their newfound powers, the shadowhunters brought peace and fear among the downworlders.

Asmodeus later decided it was too calm upon the earth, so he and his wife at the time came to earth and brought some more friends with them. But while he was up, he was hunting; Hunting the one thing that got away; Magnus.

Out of pure mistake, Magnus bumped into Asmodeus. "Well, well, well, look what we have here. My precious boy, come hug father." He spoke when he found Magnus strolling around Ghana.

"You are not my father! You threw me to the side like one of your demon toys." Magnus screamed once he understood who it was. Stiles felt Magnus' anger from across town and waists no time before racing to get to him.

"My boy, you are my best creation. All I want is to be the father I never took the chance to be. Give me a chance." Asmodeus was using his powers to capture his son, and they were working.

Just as Stiles got to them, he watched as Magnus walked through a portal with his father. "Fuck!" he cried. That was the last straw. No one gets to mess with Magnus. Using all his energy, he created the first tracking spell.

"Edom? How in the living fuck do I get there?" he asked himself. Out of nowhere, a woman spoke right behind him, "I know how." The blonde beauty caught Stiles' eye right away, with her captivating eyes, but that soon left once he found out she was Asmodeus' current wife.

"I know you aren't going to trust me, but I'm your only way into Edom!" she exclaims while Stiles holds his guard up. "How can I know you won't take me somewhere else. You are a demon, after all." Stiles answers.

"I'm 110% human. Asmodeus tricked me into thinking he was human. I fell for his trap." She looks desperate now. It's like she knows Stiles is the only one who can free her of her cursed life.

"You're lucky I don't have any other options. If you even think of betraying me, I will kill you." He threatens. The woman's face calms as she takes Stiles' hand and whispers, "Edom".

Next thing Stiles knows, he's in what he can only assume is Edom. "The castle is this way. It's the only place Magnus would be." She speaks only calm. "Lead the way." Stiles holds his hand in the direction the woman pointed to as a signal she should lead the way.

After an agonizingly long walk, the castle comes into view, and Stiles isn't waiting for the girl any longer. "Out of my way!" he yells as he throws the guards away from the door. Soon, he is walking the large corridors in search of his brother.

It soon strikes Stiles that he should've waited for the woman as he gets lost within the extravagant castle. Closing his eyes, he focuses on the task at hand, finding Magnus, and lets his power do their stuff.

"Ssssstilessss, heee isss on thee second floor, fuuuurthest to the left." a voice speaks within his head; the darkness. But that doesn't matter right now. He follows the instructions of the voice leading him to the room.

The sound of footsteps came from all directions just before he opened the door. "Mags?" he asks the darkroom. "Stiles? Stiles!" Magnus whisper yells when he sees the man he calls a brother. "It's not safe for you here!" Magnus whispers in a rush.

"That's why we're leaving here together," Stiles answers before trying to pull Magnus out of the room. "I can't leave. He knows where I am at all times." Magnus yanks his arm away from Stiles.

"Well, we just need to fix that, and we can leave," Stiles is now desperate to get Magnus out. Why won't he go with him? "Sti, this is my father we are talking about here. He is stronger than us. He has a whole army of demons behind him. We don't stand a chance."

"You want to stay, don't you?"
