Dr. Mage was having coffee with his best friend Wonder Gal when his eyes rolled up in his head and he temporarily passed out. By this time, Wonder Gal was used to this sort of thing, as Dr. Mage communed with the cosmos to check out the latest magical event, so she waited for half a minute to see if he would recover.
He did. "Oh boy. Well, we knew this was coming."
"What?" Sometimes Dr. Mage's shtick of not telling you what he knew was pretty tiresome.
"Kylie's powers are waking up again."
"That's not good."
"Yeah, particularly when she remembers she has the curse. We've done everything we can to shape her life. Loving family, good, happy relationship with a good man, solid values, everything so that she doesn't turn back into a monster like Kyle when this happens. Now's when we see if it worked."
Dr. Mage had used his powers to conceal both his and Wonder Gal's real identities from the public. Wonder Gal was a general protector of the area, saving people from fires and accidents and doing a little crime-fighting in what was not a high-crime area, and Dr. Mage was its magical protector, which mostly involved keeping the Glendale Curse--really a powerful demonic entity--from asserting itself. The two were friends mostly because they liked each other, but also because there weren't other people they could talk to about their lives.
