NINE
CHAPTER NINE:
HISTORY TIME WITH SATAN
Peter didn't know what to expect when he went to school after the weekend. He knew about Tony and Lucifer's plan to replace her as their history teacher but that didn't mean he was prepared for her in any shape or way.
The day started normal, he woke up, had his breakfast and then was driven to school by Happy. Lucifer said she still had time so she'd come later.
Walking into midtown high felt like he was about to die any moment.
Ned found him at his locker, looking around nervously, "Hey!"
Peter looked at Ned, "I summoned the devil."
Ned froze with his hand up in the air -preparing for a bro handshake- and then started laughing, "Dude, what?"
Looking around like a paranoid person, Peter leaned close to Ned, "The ritual we did? Worked."
"Shit. Does Mr. Stark know?"
He received a nod.
"What did he do?"
"Replaced Mr. Dell."
It was about halfway through school time when the rumors started flying around about the demon teacher from hell, with her pretty looks and torturous ways.
The whole day Peter -and now Ned- looked like two paranoid people, looking over their shoulders and acting like a hell hound was just about to jump out and kill them.
Finally, finally, it was the last class which meant history.
Ned and Peter delayed going to class as much as they could but in the end, they had to go in, so after some encouraging words-
("The worst she'll do is kill us-"
"right."
"-and damn us to an eternity in hell-"
"-being tortured In every possible way."
"Yes.")
-they went in and sat in their usual seats. Due to their bad luck, MJ was absent that day because she had a cold. So their line of defense was nonexistent.
Peter would say nothing else could go wrong, but then Flash opened his mouth, "I've heard she's hella hot."
How in the world did he make an awful pun without knowing?
Fortunately for Peter's sanity, the door opened and the devil walked in.
Lucifer for once was not wearing her tight, leather pants and a black tank top with high boots and instead was wearing a black suit with sneakers. Her make-up was the same without the dark shadowy eyes and her hair was down as usual.
No one dared to speak or move while she crossed the room, set her bag down on the table, and then walked to the board to write 'Ms. Diavola'.
Peter was 90% sure it was a name related to either devil or Satan because he knew Mr. Stark had chosen it and he'd choose something punny.
Lucifer smiled a dangerous smile that made his spidey senses scream at him to run away like a headless chicken and leave the fools behind. The smile was creepy, it wasn't the smile she gave peter when he had finished his homework with her and then told him in celebration they can go out and enjoy a healthy goat's heart together. It did take a weird turn like everything with lucifer did, peter wasn't going to deny that, but that moment had been precious to him in the sense that he had made her proud by doing something small and she had felt the need to be proud despite knowing him for only a few days.
This smile, however, was a complete 180 from the ones from the tower.
"Hello, children," She began and snapped them out of whatever they were thinking, "I'm Lucifer Diavola, you call me Ms. Diavola and nothing else. I will be your history teacher for the foreseeable future seeing how your last decided on an abrupt vacation to Canada for unknown reasons. I'm very strict, hand in your papers on time and do your homework, that's 90 percent of your score. The other 10 is based on if you like pineapple on pizza or not. Do not look, talk, or even walk near me outside of school time, or I will harm you. Any questions?" she didn't wait to see if anyone had any, "Good, let's begin. Who knows anything about the delightful events of world war one?"
Peter couldn't decide if it was surprising or not that his classmates fell even harder in love with Lucifer.
。................✟............... 。
"-This was the most fun I've had in a while! Torturing such young minds in legal ways should be illegal. I think they all hate me now and are planning on a coup of some kind."
Tony, who had made the mistake of picking up Lucifer from school, hummed and tried to tune her out. His phone was going off, and a glance showed it was peter complaining about how his students were in love with Lucifer and that's unfair cause he met her first and they're soul bonded.
"Is that why Peter has been blowing up my phone talking about how it's disgusting to read the class' group chat?"
"Peter should know what's best for him and stop texting you."
Said boy pouted in the backseat, but the chain of messages did not stop, "The others all hate you though, Mr. Lucifer. Pretty sure I heard two planning on how to make your death look like an accident."
He had indeed hard two students talking about how they should bash her head in with the textbook -which could be used as a bat- and then leave a banana peel by her to indicate she'd slipped on it and died.
A bit harsh for the first day.
"Good, that means they have good survival instincts."
Peter texted someone -not Tony, his phone was getting a break- and then looked up, "Pretty sure Flash wants to buy you flowers."
Lucifer looked pained and looked out the window like she was in some kind of drama, "He used The line on me."
Now peter looked pained too, "Oh no, The line?"
The devil closed her eyes and recalled the traumatic event, "He said and I quote, 'did it hurt when you fell from heaven?' and I said 'Yes, pretty sure the impact wiped out the dinosaurs.'"
"Wait," Tony stopped at a red light and looked at the passenger seat, "You're the reason they went extinct?"
"They deserved it!" Lucifer glared at tony.
Clearly, there was bad blood between Satan and dinosaurs.
There was peace for a short time, the light went green and Billie's 'NDA' was playing. The peace broke when Tony's phone started going off again.
"Peter-"
"Mr. Stark, the other classes are sending wikiHow screenshots! It's all about how to murder without others knowing and how to hide a body!"
Tony looked at her shortly before looking at the road again, "What the hell did you do to those poor kids?"
"Taught them of the difficulties of the real life."
"Well, tone it down Forky, we don't need a rich kid to go crying to daddy about how their teacher glared at them."
"Don't be ridiculous Stark, I don't glare at kids-"
"Thank your dad."
"-I also verbally tell them how I feel."
Ironman, one of the world's greatest heroes, the genius, philanthropist, wanted to cry and bang his head against the steering wheel, "Please don't."
She huffed and crossed her arms, "I'll try and tone it down."
"Thank you."
Suddenly, Peter thrusted his hand forward and shoved his phone in Lucifer's face, "Ms. Lucifer, Flash is asking if he should wear the green or black jacket for the next session."
Taking the phone and looked at the pics for a full minutes, she decided on the green one so she could comment on how it looked like barf.
Peter grinned and started typing.
"Also," Lucifer added as an afterthought, "Outside midtown you can me Lucifer or whatever you do."
Peter paused for a second before shrugging, "Okay, Aunt L," then made a face like he didn't like it.
He had to find what suited her best.
Tony's brain was glitching, "Wait a second," He took his hand off the steering wheel -F.R.I.D.A.Y had been driving this whole time and Stark was just acting- and made a 'T' with his hands, "You know her for five minutes and she becomes Aunt L or Lucifer and I'm still Mr. Stark?"
His tone was dripping with betrayal and disbelief.
Spiderboy looked at his mentor with a pout, "She's the devil, she can damn me to an eternity of pain and misery in the deepest parts of hell I don't listen to her."
"Yes child, listen to me, or else its the pits for you."
"I hate both of you," Tony declared.
"Lier."
