The nine Spirits and Shido stood in front of the sixteen adults, the adults staring at Shido in confusion before Origami's mother spoke, "Who's your new friend? And why does he look like he wants to murder everyone here?"

Shido narrowed his eyes as Origami answered, "His name is Shido, he's something called a…a changeling?" she looked at the blue-haired young man and Shido nodded, "And…from what we learned, he hates Spirits and humans because his family left him to die after something bit him," the adults stared at the young adults with wide eyes before stepping closer to Shido.

Kurumi's mother reached up as Shido turned his head, narrowed his eyes and growled, "Uh…problem?"

"Get out of my blind spot," the woman lowered her hand as Shido looked back up and the woman reached up once again, only to have Shido turn, narrow his eyes and growl again, "Stop it!" the adults jumped back and Shido sighed as he shook his head, "What the hell? Why did I want to meet all of you and-"

"Gray wolf," Kotori's father said as the Spirits looked at him in confusion and Shido's eyes widened, "Well…does that mean anything to you or-"

"I didn't tell anyone about that…how in the hell did you know that?"

"We stuck a nerve," he laughed and shook his head, "But to answer your question, kid, we were there that day," the air between everyone grew still, "You don't believe me, do you?"

Shido growled as he turned his back towards everyone, "You're not lying…I can tell that much, but why in the hell would you save a random child from dying? My parents and little sister had no problems and-"

"That's why we couldn't leave you," Kotori's mother sighed and shook her head, "No child so be left to die like that, and my husband and I were working on a vaccine for that rare disease that nearly killed you, so when we saw your family were gone, we gave you the untested vaccine and well…you know what happened after that," Shido sighed and slightly nodded, "And now that you're here, we'd like to do a follow up and ask a few questions about the vaccine an-"

"I can turn into any animal I want, your daughters are apparently my mates, my hearing is possibly my best feat, while my sense of smell could get me into trouble. I can tell you where people have been…when uh…the last time they relieved themselves, I can smell emotions and…how…how people naturally smell,"

"What?" Miku snapped, crossing her arms across her chest, "Are you saying you know what our bits smell like?"

"Not by choice and not just you…everyone…like I said, my sense of smell is good, but that part gets me into trouble," the eight families stared at him as he shook his head and began walking away, "I'm leaving,"

"Rafael, El Na'ash," Yuzuru called out and Shido looked down as a chain-link pendulum wrapped around his body and he fell back.

Looking back, he narrowed his eyes and growled, "You really don't want to trap a predator like this. It'll frighten them, causing them to lash out at everyone around them,"

"Response, come with us," Yuzuru answered in an emotionless tone, "There is more than you're letting on. You claim the nine of us to be your mates, and you must explain what it means."

Shido looked at the nine before looking at the adults, all of them looking at him in confusion, "Do…do none of you know about the animal kingdom an-"

"I love animals, but there are some things I don't understand," Kurumi crossed her arms.

Shido sighed as Kurumi stepped closer to him and whispered in his ear, "We can talk on Fraxinus," Shido looked at the redheaded Spirit in confusion, "Just follow us," Shido groaned as Yuzuru freed him from his bindings, allowing him to stand.

The next installment might come as a surprise to everyone…enjoy. And I know Spirits are supposed to be like secret, but again, AU.
