Stiles POV :

I didn't feel the need to sleep, and I was still wary that someone was here with me, but the only way to get in touch with my foxy side was when I was sleeping. So I fashioned a pillow out of a softish bag I found, and I laid on the floor trying to sleep. It was hard to fall asleep at first; the fear I wasn't alone in the room made me not let my guard down, but eventually, staring at a bland tan wall put me to sleep.

Once asleep, I was in my bedroom once again. Where Peter and Lydia found me last time. And my wolf and fox were there just the same as last time.

Though my wolf sported a collar that had a name tag that read: Control. Which made sense considering the last conversation I had with my fox side.

My fox was sitting next to the wolf, looking at something.

It was my laptop.

Which was on and showed me sleeping on the floor in the control room. I'd never seen the laptop before; actually, the last time I was in here, that part of the room was so dark I could barely see it.

But what I was really wondering was why my fox was staring at it so intently.

Now, if only I could talk to animals. But these weren't real animals. They were my animalistic side of myself, but they weren't actually animals. Because they could clearly understand me if I were to speak to them. Hence the collar on the wolf was placed there by the fox when I asked it to.

"Hey! Uh, fox? What are you looking at?" I ask, even though I can clearly see the computer.

The fox opened its mouth, but my voice mirrored back to me, "I'm watching over us. We are not alone; it's dangerous to be sleeping, so I'm watching." The fox said.

I looked at the laptop and felt goosebumps, so I really wasn't alone, god that's terrifying.

"Right, thanks. Ummm, so you know Rei? Right?" I ask.

The fox nods,

"The other fox who tried to kill us but is now helping us."

I nod; okay, so it was conscious of what is going on when I am awake as well. It was a little disconcerting, but I guess it makes this whole thing a little bit easier for me.

"So I was wondering if you heard when he was talking about trying to control my powers. He said I needed to like imagine my inner fox self, and we had to work together to make my powers work. So I'm not really sure about that too much, but since we can be here and talk, maybe, you can tell me what you understand about the situation going on right now, and then I can tell you what I think, and then we can hopefully figure this all out together and maybe send some more messages to my friends." I said, hoping the fox would agree.

"Ok." It said.

It turned away from the laptop to grab the collar on the wolf and brought the wolf to sit in front of the laptop then, let go of the collar when it was staring at the laptop and then trotted back over to me.

And sat in front of me before it continued talking,

"Wolfie will watch. And I'll tell you what's happening. We are inside the wild hunt. I've never been inside one before. Stiles Mmhmm, you do know that I am you, right? I may have been born out of the situation that happened when we were possessed, and I may be a piece of the old Nogitsune, but I am also you."
