And just a note: These two stories are in different continuities, odds are the Fox Miraculous will show up/be mentioned in both, wielded by different people, so dont expect the other one to reference these events.
"What did you say to me?" Hawkmoth frowned. He'd never been rejected before. ever.
"I said no, Hawkmoth. I wont become one of your victims." his hand tightened into a fist. "I researched your ways, how you manipulate people. I knew odds were youd try to strike, and was prepared. I wont have any hand in helping your twisted schemes... now... GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Drake yelled, wraping his hand around the watch, and felt a flutter. With a yank, the Akuma was forced from the watch and held in the boy's hand, as he tightened his grip untill it stopped moving. However, when he opened his hand, it fluttered out, pure white. The stress of the moment led Drake to colapse in exaustion.
He groaned, his eyes cracking open to a masked boy looking at him. Drake groaned, shaking his head. "What..." he choaked out, his mind not even registering that is was Cat Noir in front of him, his head pounding. "I'm... ok... just need... a moment." he sat against the wall.
"What happened here?" a voice said, pulling Drake's eyes to the red and black-spotted heroine, Ladybug. Only then did he really realize who was there.
"Well... A drunk driver hit my brother and best friend... I wanted to ensure nobody else would go throught this..." he choked back a sob. "And... and... Hawkmoth tried to Akumatize me..."
"TRIED to?" Ladybug said, lifting an eyebrow. He'd never tried to Akumatize someone and they didnt have to fight them before.
"Yeah. I... said no." he stood shakilly. "I need to head home." he said, slowly walking by them. The two heroes looked at eachother. Nobody had ever said no to Hawkmoth before.
As he made his way back home, he didnt even notice the same butterfly from before, the now-pure Akuma, return to his watch until the mask glowed around his eyes once more. "I told you no, Hawkmoth." he growled, but was surprised as the mask lightened to a pure white, and a different voice spoke.
"So you did, Drake... thats why Im reaching out to you. My name is Nooroo. Hawkmoth is using my powers for evil, and while I am unable to diretly refuse, I can aid against him indirectly. The Akuma you rejected has lost it's connection to Hawkmoth, but not the powers. They're weaker due to the lack of evil energy, but Ive instructed it to aid you. Master is planning to create another Akuma as soon as I'm recovered. I must go, but before I do, say 'Gift of Nooroo' and be ready to aid against this new Akuma. You must aid Ladybug and Cat Noir in taking down Hawkmoth." the voice and mask faded as the Akuma flutters to his shoulder. Giving it a look, Drake nods, holding his arm closer to his shoulder. "Gift of Nooroo!" the Akuma fluttered into his watch, and he felt his other hand drawn to it. as he touched it, a russet red glow spread to his hand as he somehow knew what to do. With a swipe across his face, a mask appearing over his eyes, with a russet red fox motif, but a slight trace of the moth motif as well. From there, a layer of pure white bubbles covered him, before fading away to reveal a new hero, ready to wield Hawkmoth's powers against him. Stalker was ready, and just in time, as he heard an explosion from nearby.
