It happened 3 years after Derek left, after all his friends left him alone on that cursed city. He reveived a call from a crying Melissa, telling him his father was gone- He broke down then and there, he couldn't even go to his funeral, he visited Scott to ask him if he should leave Beacon Hills, and what he said broke him- so he left.
His father would understand, wouldn't he?
But Stiles simply couldn't look at one more dead person in his life, he felt sad and relieved that his father died, sad because it was his father, but relieved because he had no other reason to be tied to Beacon Hills- Then, a week later when he was at his first apartment in New York he was able to afford with the savings his dad made for his College, came the guilt, he felt so guilty for simply leaving and not even going to his funeral- What kind of son was he? A bad one that is. Now with mo one else in the world but him to take care of himself, Stiles had to stay strong... Thankfully- or in this cassle, Sadly- Stiles had experience dealing with high stress situations, being possessed is actually stressful! Who would've thought! Sarcasm apart, Stiles was quite lonely for a long time, with only his thoughts and haunting memories to keep him company.
Every time he had a bad nightmare, he would wake up to Derek's voice calling him, be comforted by the memories he had of him while sitting on his bed, crying silent tears to not wake up his neighbors... He didn't wake up screaming anymore, it was- at that time- 3 years after the Nogitsune was inside him, he was but 17 at the time, if present Stiles could say something to past Stiles, he would say: "Don't worry. It gets worse... Way, way worse." Because it did get worse- Before he got the [Gamer System] he kept counting his fingers to make sure he was awake and not hallucinating, he had nightmares every day, he was barely hanging byba thread! He wanted to open a coffee shop- Two years working around at coffee shops gave him enough experience to open his own, and the money he saved was more than enough to huy the building he put on a completely different name.
He still thanks Danny for teaching him more than just the basics on hacking and computers.
He switched the name, now the owner of the build was Void, and he was Void. He had to fake more documents, but it was worth it. He had a place he could stay without the fear of being found- paranoid was his new normal, after all, dreams and reality clashed more than he wanted to admit- somewhere he could stay at and enjoy his peace! But oh, he couldn't enjoy things, could he?
"Stiles?" His name- Well, nickname, he couldn't help but flinch when-

Stiles stopped and... Breathe in... Breathe out. Calm. "Welcome to the Void Caffee, my name is Void how can i help you?" He thought about it you know? How he would react when he saw Derek and his former friends again, he thought he would shout, be mad, cry- But all he felt was indifference. Cold and cruel indifference that emanated from him like a wave, his cold eyes locking into Derek's green-blue eyes in a glare that he could visibly see the result of. "Boss, we have another numher 4 for the table 1." Taylon's calm voice and touch broke Stiles out of his stupor and cold calmness as he smiled sweetly at the man- a growl, a menacing low growl escaped Derek's lips, making Stiles stare at him. "Costumer, please do not threaten my employee, there are rules on this establishment and i highly recommend you to follow them." Stiles hadn't noticed, but his voice was deeper than ever, his eyes were black just like he was possesed again by the Nogitsune.
"Taylon do me a favor and take care of our new costumers, Derek Hale, Erica Reyes, and Cora Hale... If any problem arises, do not hesitate to call me, I am more than capable to kick them out just like i did last time with that Alpha." Stiles turned around, ignoring the kicked puppy face mixed with fear and a little bit of arousal that Derek fucking Hale had on his face. He didn't noticed it, but he exited his [Void Form] as soon as he entered the kitchen, he was calm here and nothing would get him... He was safe. His little black dragon purred on his throat as it rubbed his little scaled cheek on his, making Stiles smile at him. "I haven't named you yet, have I?" The little baby just tilted his head like a confused puppy, Stiles had to resist the urge to hug the little thing till it passed away from hugs and kisses!

Stiles checked his status quickly, smiling a little when he remembered his adventures at the dungeons, since he found out he could add the effect of time dilation to the dungeons, meaning he could fight for hours before he had to leave the dungeon to open up the shop, due to that he quickly learned the spell [Catnap] that decreased the amount of hours he needed to sleep to get a full night rest by to four hours! When he used the spell, he would instantly fall asleep and would wake up four hours later dully rested and ready to fight more monsters. He normally abused a lot of the dungeon's time dilation properties to train his skills, making the grow to higher levels! And about the abnormal level of his [Spark Magic]? Well, he kinda one shot the boss of the [Sea Dungeon]! Well, it was a fucking giant dragon turtle and it scared the shit out of him, so he accidentally- not so accidentally- used all his mana and sent a bolt of black lightning to obliterate the boss.
That was the first time Stiles had feared something while having his [Gamer Mind], the other times he kept calm- After this he definitely developed Talasophobia (Is it even called that? He doesn't know, better do research on it later, since now he quite literally can't forget things), or fear of the sea. To be fair, there were some scary, nasty little bitches called Giant Fishes and Giant Eels that scared the hell out of him. They came in swarms, Stiles had to send waves of electricity to fry them- It didn't work like he hoped against the Giant Eels, but he managed fo survive and kill them all. He couldn't help but fry their meat and eat them with hate because of the fright they gave him... The Sea Dragon and Giant Leviathan were like mini-bosses, they were scary as hell and almost made Stiles shit his pants, but he managed to kill them and get their heads.
And hearts. He doesn't know what their uses are, but he'll find out one day.
Now he has other things to do, like being indifferent to a trio of traitors who left him alone to suffer on that cursed city.
Derek couldn't help but whimper when he looked at the door that closed behind Stiles, his mate acted as if he didn't know him- He smelled like Stiles, so the possibility of being the Nogitsune was none to zero, because when his eyes wemt black, he didn't smell like that demon, and besides that he felt it- When he said his name, Stiles reacted to it before he became indifferent, so of course he knows them! He is not possesed again, he is sure of it. "Excuse me." Turning to look at the handsome guy that touched his mate, he saw that the man was almost... Translucent? Yeah, that was the word, he was almost see-through! "My name Is Taylon, and i couldn't help but notice that you three know Void, am i right?" Derek heard Cora scoff on the side while Erica whimpered, he could smell their fear- they couldn't possibly think Stiles was possesed again were they? "Let me say this only once... Ever since he moved here,, I've been more than happy. I've been blissful... These months were the best months of my death, so don't you dare try to take this away from me."
Taylon's eyes were pure white, Derek felt a chill run down his spine when the now lightly glowing man stared at them with clear and threatening powerful glowing eyes. "I've heard a lot about you... Derek Hale, Cora Hale, Erica Reyes. Come with me, we have the table 8 free now." Without waiting for them to follow, Taylon began to walk to the corner, where a lonely table stood. He stopped there and looked at them, waiting for them with an 'What are you waiting for?' gaze. "Let's go..." Derek whispered as his nostrils flared up, he could smell several different creatures in this shop, it was a mess! Werecats, Witches, Weredogs, Werecoyotes, Druid, Vampire, Nosferatus, damn, even a Gargoyle!
Sitting down, they couldn't help but hreathe in the thick magical aura around, the very first thing they noticed was how powerful the aura around this shop was... "Can you tell us about him?" Erica couldn't help but ask, her eyes were shining with hope and apprehension, she feared for Stiles and Derek knew Cora did too, but he felt deep in his bones Stiles was not possesed again... Maybe being possesed by the Nogitsune had a stronger effect on him then they thought- But Deaton would've felt it, wouldn't him? Maybe he did but ignored it? "You mean ever since you abandoned him?" Taylon's cold, dead voice made the three Werewolves wince amd hold in another whimper from leaving their lips as the creature-man just smiled- no, smirked with a wide grin at them. "I don't know what happened to him, we know each other for a few months anyway... But i can say for sure that what you did to him was heartbreaking, cold, amd cruel."
"I know-" Cora tried to speak but was silenced by the cold glance of the glowing white man, who just said: "Shut up and listen. You all fucked up really bad, leaving him behind while he tried dealing with being possesed was not great, not being there while he suffered for the things he blames himself was even worse, but not being there for him when his dad died was the worse thing. I would hate you all way worse if Scott McCall didn't exist."
"I don't know what this is but if Taylon hates someone, then they are really bad." A female voice spoke from behind them, making all three of the werewolves to flinch and hold a growl, Bianca walked forward with a tray of three different drinks with three different plates with different snacks, they could all identify the smells of the different drinks because they were all familiar to them- Derek's eyes were droven nearly to tears as he smelled the familiar scent of the delicious chocolate cream cake with a thick smell of the strawberry banana smoothie filling that only Stiles knew how to make, he never told anyone the recipe and they forgot about it after the craziness had died out... He could also smell his favorite drink, which would sound childish but was chocolate milk. I mean, he always enjoyed drinking it, and after the fire he simply stopped doing things he enjoyed as a way to make himself suffer.
Make himself pay for the death of his family.
He only mentioned it once to Stiles, and he can't believe he remembers this.
Cora was almost crying as well, she would always ask for Stiles to make her some fresh cookies when they were on his house, she loved his chocolate chips cookies, and the smell if them brough many memories from way bacl before the Hale fire when her grandma would bake these wonderful Chocolate chip cookies that to this day only Stiles' matched... And hee favorite drink of course, green tea mixed with some whiskey- she only mentioned it to Stiles once when she was kinda drunk, she told him the story about how her mother would make her drink green tea when she was being a brat because she hated green tea, but then later on life she added whiskey to it and she absolutely loved it.
Erice, however, was crying already. She could smell and the sweet and sour smell of her favorite lemon cupcakes with honey, her mother would make those for her every time it rained because she was afraid of thunder, it always cheered her up and after her mom died she never ate it again- Only once she mentioned to Stiles, when he was talking about strange mixtures he could try to make into interesting recipes, she mentioned how lemon and honey mixed together very well and would make a nice cupcake- Never she thought he would remember this! And this smell- Oh God! She almost lost her shit, it was one of the sweetest things she remembers Stiles doing for her, when they were rescued after the Alpha Pack captured them and she was having those nasty nightmares and she woke up to the sweet smell of fresh hot chocolate with strawberry flavoured marshmallows.
Where the hell did he get strawberry flavoured marshmallows!?
But seeing their favorite drinks and snacks really put it to perspective, he remembered them all while they forgot him. They only came looking back for him after the haunting news that Stiles' father had died reached their ears when they were on South America. It took his father literally dying for them to remember he existed- They believed he was safe back witj Scott, he promised he would take care of Stiles but it was clear to them he didn't. And now the weight of Stiles' indifference was heavier now that they knew he remembered everything about them while they forgot him.
The guilt, the shame just grew when they heard the girl say: "So, teach told me to give these specially to you three and told me it was on the house." Saying that, she smiled at Taylon who nodded and left. "Enjoy your drinks and snacks, i have a job to do." Derek hesitantly touched the mug with his chocolate milk, fhere were the words [To Sourwolf] on his mug, so of course this drink was his drink, on Erica's cup there were the words [To Catwoman], and at last on Cora's teacup were the words [To Murderbrows Hale]. He would never forget the nicknames he gave to them, this was of course just another stab to their already bleeding guilty heart.
Stiles wanted to make the suffer, wanted ro make them feel as much pain as he felt when he felt every pack bond he had going stale and inactive, he wants them to feel guilty, feel like they don't deserve redemption- But now looking at Derek's saddened face, he couldn't help hut curse, his heart skipped a beat whenever he looked at Derek and he wanted to kiss him so much- but it pained him to let them go without making them suffer at least a little bit. Oh, but how he wants to kiss him, hug him, cuddld him, fuck him, and do many more indecent things to him while also wanting him to do many indecent things to him. But he can't- Not when he still feels deeply betrayed, he can't give them a chance without making them work extra damn hard for it, let them suffer and walk through fire and ice to please him.
He helped them so much, he thought he was pack, but when they left without even saying goodbye- It was clear that in their eyes, he never was pack.
"Did you enjoy your stay?" Derek turned to look at the unnaturally calm Stiles and how politely he was with them- Derek didn't even heard his heart weaver from their presence at all. "Stiles-" Derek tried to say something, but he was quickly shut down by Stiles cold stare and cold voice: "Mieczyslaw Stilinski died the same day his father did, at exactly 2 years, 4.months, 12 days, 13 hours, 45 minutes and 38 seconds ago. I am Void, Stiles was but something i foolishly held dear while still alive, a mere memory of a time when i was happy and young..." His eyes retreated as they flashed black, looking into nothing, as if remembering something far away: "Foolish and stupid i was, wasn't i? Believing myself to be more than a mere... Token, a mascot, believing myself to be... Part of the pack." They could smell the putrid smell of misery and the sour smell of sadness, they couldn't help but whine when his scent returned to this neutral smell unnaturally, like it was forced to. "But now I'm not foolish anymore... Tell me, Derek Hale, Cora Hale, and Erica Reyes, what do you need from me? Because if you think i would believe you came here simply to see me, you are more than wrong."
"Stiles-"
"Void."
"Void? Why this name? Why are you doing this-" Erica tried to ask Stiles, but the only response she got was a cruel and short laugh from him. "Why this name? I told you, Mieczyslaw Stilinski is dead. He is no more. I became what he could never have been! I became independent, free, a powerhouse, someone others rely on- Someone who can be trusted with what they know and share, someone who would never be rejected by their Mate." Derek chocked out a whine as his head snapped towards Stiles, he looked vulnerable and broken. "It's the truth, Derek Hale, the day you left you rejected me."
"I could've never rejected you Stiles, I love you-"
"Void." Stiles' cold and merciless voice cut his love confession short, making Derek look at him and continue: "I couldn't- I thought that after i lost my Alpha Spark, you would've never loved me- I thought I wasn't enough for you."
"And you aren't, Derek Hale."
Hearing this frim his Mate was highly destructive, his walls came tumbling down as the tears left his eyes, he could still hear Stiles' voice say: "An Alpha is someome who will unconditionally love, protect, and care for their Mate. An Alpha would never hurt their mate, never make them cry, never make them suffer- But you did, Derek Hale, because you are a bad Alpha... And you were not enough of an Alpha and not enough of a Mate for me, Derek Hale. So i only have one thing to say: If you want a chance with me, you'll have a lot to make up for, a lot to do to even make me smile, and a lot more than you think to even try to get on my pants." Derek couldn't believe what he was hearing, Stiles was giving him a chance? "Your chance will come if you try, but let me warn you, Derek Hale... I'm not the same person you once knew, I'm way worse. And you might want to speed it up since you got competition now... I am more desired than i am comfortable with." Stiles' confident smirk was enough to reignite the flame of lust and hope inside Derek's heart.
Saying that, Stiles got up and left, not once talking to the other two Beta Werewolves.
Derek wanted to believe he still had a chance to try, even if he can't win Stiles' heart, maybe he can receive his forgiveness?
