A/N: I will be camping tomorrow and won't have wifi so here is an update😊👍🏻

Derek didn't bother arguing with Stiles request. He grabbed the keys to his Camaro and walked out of the loft right on Stiles' tail. (pun intended)

The drive to Deatons was silent, Derek kept his eyes on the road and Stiles stared at his tail which was slumped on his seat.

When they pulled in the parking lot was adjacent. Derek gets out first and the two walk into the clinic to see Dr. Deaton preforming a checkup on a German Shepherd he was taking care of at the moment for the K-9 Unit.

The dog must have smelled Derek or something because he went berserk and started barking like mad.

"Wow boy, easy." Says Deaton in a calm voice forcefully grabbing the dogs collar and hooking on a leash.

"How can I help you Derek." The older man asks, not seeing Stiles.

Derek glances at Stiles and grabs his red hoodie dragging him into the open. Stiles tail twitches back and forth nervously.

"Hi again." Says Stiles awkwardly waving to the Veterinarian.

Deaton nods understandably and puts the dog back in his kennel. He then opens the gate for both Stiles and Derek to walk through. When they get through Deaton looks Stiles right in the eyes.

"Now Stiles, I need you to tell me everything that happened after the Nogitsune."

Stiles flinches a bit at the mention of the spirits name. Stiles then glances at Derek before he began to speak, "Well, at first everything was normal. The pack and I went back to school, and we all resumed our lives like nothing happened." Stiles looks around the room before he starts to talk again, "Then the pack started to ditch me, one by one until I was sitting alone. I didn't understand why. I still don't. Then yesterday they all came up to me saying I 'smelled' different," Stiles takes a deep breath, "later that day Mason told me they were planning on kicking me out."

Derek speaks up, "Out of the pack?"

"No out of the fucking Glee Club... YES the pack!" Stiles emphasizes the sarcasm in his voice as he yells at Derek who takes that as his cue to stop asking questions.

"Ok." Is all Deaton said. "I'd like to ask what happened after you left the clinic yesterday if thats ok."

Stiles slowly nods and taps his fingers on his thigh, "Derek was driving me home, and I felt like the music was turned up way too high, but Derek said it was barely even on. Then my head started pounding and I felt like I needed to puke so I asked Derek to pull over." Stiles looks at Derek who was listening intently. "I got out and started running, and thats when I passed out."

Deaton nods and looks at Derek, "What did you do after he left?"

"Well I freaked out, then I tried to follow him. When I got there he was a small fox curled up in his sweatshirt with his surroundings covered in blood." Derek took a small breath, "I don't think he was very aware of what had happened."

"What does this even have to do with it?" Asks Stiles, voice skipping a few octaves.

"I needed to make sure my assumption is correct." States Deaton, sifting his fingers through Stiles' tail.

Stiles jerks his tail away and lets it hang by his left leg, twitching cautiously.

"Whats your assumption then?" Asks Derek gazing at Stiles' tail, and then to Stiles.

"Well." Deaton pauses, "Stiles seems to be a rare type of shapeshifter. The cousin of a werewolf, maybe with some occasional Kitsune blood ties. However these shape shifters, unlike most werewolves with the exception of Derek and his mother, can fully shift into its animal form. In your case a fox." Deaton looks at the boys and continues to explain. "I know that you both know the saying 'sometimes the shape you take reflects the person you are'."

Stiles and Derek nod.

"Stiles' ability to put two and two together, and his jumpiness played a roll in making him a fox. The Nogitsune played an even larger part. Being able to survive and defeat a Nogitsune is incredibly rare, causing him to be a more rare creature. The main part the Nogitsune played though, is leaving that mark." Deaton pointed to the Japanese mark on Stiles' neck. "That indicated that if Stiles was ever bitten that the Nogitsune, a fox, would play a part in what he became."

"But he was never bitten." Says Derek.

"Wrong," Says Stiles, looking up, "Scott bit the Nogitsune version of me."

"But that's not you." Derek looks at Deaton.

"True, however Stiles and the Nogitsune were bonded at the time. When Void Stiles got the bite, it was transferred to Stiles as well." Deaton says, tact in his voice.

Stiles looks at Deaton, "Then what am I?"

"Werefox." Says Deaton.

-Meanwhile At School

Scott stands by Stiles' locker. It was already 7:15 and Stiles had yet to show up.

The bell rings and Scott jumps a bit, not preparing himself for the blaring noise.

Looking around once again he gives up on talking to his former friend and walks to class. Yesterday playing vividly in his head.

---

"A weak link." Says Malia almost spitting it after I watched Stiles slink away from the table when the second the bell rung.

"Honestly I agree." Says Liam nodding his head, "He's just human, he is a bit useless if you ask me."

Mason gives his friend a quick punch. 'Honestly what has gotten into the pack lately? Isn't this Stiles they are talking about? Their Best Friend?'

"What was that for?" Asks Liam eyeing Mason.

"Aren't you guys over reacting a bit? He is your friend."

Scott looks at him, "Was our friend." He corrects.

"Well what changed?" Asks Mason.

Scott shrugs simply, "He changed."

"Why do you even care Mason?" Liam asks, his expression changing slightly, "Please don't tell me that Stiles' partner choice has changed as well."

Mason didn't really know how to react to the thought of Stiles being gay, "N-no. I don't think so."

The bell rings cutting off any further conversation and Scott speaks up, "The final decision has been made. Tomorrow we kick Stiles out of the pack."

Everyone nods except for Mason, Lydia just stays silent.

"If anyone breaths a word about this to Stiles, you will join him." Scott adds.

And with that Scott watches the pack walk away.

---

The first half of school was uneventful. Nothing happened.

Stiles didn't show up, there was no supernatural need to leave school. In fact it kind of put Scott on edge.

However when lunch came around, Scott was met by two out of breath Freshmen.

Mason looks from Scott to Liam, "Ok," he lets out a small puff of air still trying to catch his breath, "It's Stiles."

"What about Stiles?!" Asks Scott a little angrily.

"We don't exactly know." Says Liam, "All Malia said was-"

Scott quickly cuts his Beta off, "Where is Malia?"

Mason nods towards the lunch line where Malia was standing.

Quickly pulling out his phone Scott types in a message to a pack group chat, not including Derek or Stiles.

Masons phone buzzes and he pulls it out reading the message Scott sent.

Scott: Pack meeting @Derek's loft after school. Derek will not be there, he has stuff planned today and this weekend.

Scott receives a few nods from the pack. All except for Mason, whom still found the sudden turn against Stiles a bit odd.

Mason raises his hand a bit awkwardly and looks at Scott, "I can't go."

Scott is just about to ask him why when Malia walks up. He then looks at her.

Malia speaks up, "Stiles' dad called me saying he never came home last night." She puts her hands up as if to say 'sorry sorry sorry.'

"Where could he be?" Asks Mason a bit worried, but not quite sure why.

"Not my problem," says Liam, shoving a mouthful of food into his mouth.

Scott nods and looks back at Mason, "So why can't you go?"

"I promised Corey I'd take him to that new movie today." Mason admires his smooth lie for a moment before he is interrupted by Scott.

"What movie?"

"Uhhhhh," Mason chokes a bit on the air threatening to close in on him, "Th- The Fate Of The Furious." Ok could have been better.

"Duuuudddeeee you should have said something and I totally would have been your wing-man!" Shouts Liam.

"Sorry man." Mason says trying to act apologetic.

'But I'm gonna figure out whats wrong with Stiles, once, and for all'

He adds silently.

---

Mason decides to leave school in order to find the sarcastic junior. On the way down the hallway he scans the lockers remembering how Stiles said he wasn't going to be here today.

Masons eyes fall on the locker next to Stiles'. There was four lines. No, claw marks on his locker.

"Oh my god."

And with that Mason ran out of the school grabbing his bike, knowing exactly where to go.
