This isn't necessarily a given it's implied that the Ray Sphere has set Cole on a different power-path than Kessler had, especially considering the myriad of non-electrical things Kessler could do in the final boss fight. Or Zeke though he gone too far, and decided to break it off with Kessler for the sake of Cole. Hoping to incite further fury in Cole, Zeke shooting at Kessler was an act, making Cole think that he killed his best friend from blasting him into the Stanton building ruins. Zeke actually planned to have Alder escape on his watch.

Zeke also seems to know a lot about electricity, conveniently for Cole, who runs off it, and having made an electrified platform for Cole to use in the prison against the Dustmen. Zeke also seems to suspiciously know a bit about Cole's powers, like him needing to charge after throwing off a lot of energy. Either way, Zeke worked with Kessler, which was why Zeke tried to activate the Ray Sphere and left with Kessler, it was to completely destroy Cole's sense of trust, and to cut an emotional bond with Cole, preparing him to harden his heart to be able to go into battle against the Beast unhindered. Or perhaps.Zeke is now a member of the First Sons long before the blast.He wears stars on his clothes. It took him the usual time-traveler friend schtick for him to accept that he was Cole from the future. Before the blast, Kessler contacted Zeke, clued him in on the whole thing. Since Kessler was around for decades before they were born, he would obviously know who Zeke was before birth, making it easy for him to track him down. Zeke actually knew who Kessler was, and was working with him.
