Leaking one of my plot bunnies:

Obliviously magic Alex. Perhaps Yassen is a magic user and this is how he survived his death in Eagle Strike (alternatively, he just survived anyway). Someone (relatively neutral) in Scorpia figures out Yassen is alive and comes to him to complain. Their complaint: Alex Rider. He's been on so many missions now and survived against such extremely ridiculous odds that this person feels they have no choice but seek out and confront Yassen about knowing all along about the truth of the Rider family's ‘luck of the devil'. He's not human, wails the hapless Scorpia member, he can't be! Yassen is kind of amused. Somewhere in the world, Alex causes another explosion.

(Alex just thinks he's kind of lucky, but more than anything is done with all this ridiculous shit that keeps happening to him.)
