A / N : I made this one for more-like a vote for Shoutmon. I found that these three were the most used pairing for Shoutmon : Lunamon, Gumdramon, and Sparrowmon. However, these three were equal for me. Shouna was a lovely pairing, while ShoutGum was a cute pairing, and Shorrow got the two of it in an equilbrium. So, the thing that mostly I wanted to know was suggestion from the other Shoutmon's Fans, which one is the best for him? I hope that you can share it on review, because I planned to make the ship after 10 chapter, and it based on the vote here.

Prologue

Shoutmon POV

The war had long been ended.

But, I didn't expect that the second rebuilt of Digital World was longer than I assumed.

Therefore, it was over now.

Sitting on the soft sofa, I tried to relax from the more-likely endless effort that I did until yesterday.

From the help of other, from my deepest will and determination to reconstruct the Digital World at the second time, all of my friends helped me to fix the damage inflicted by that jerk Quartzmon.

Thanks to Gumdramon and his partner Tagiru, and of course the other legendary heroes who had lend their impressive power, we could live again in this peaceful world.

Thanks for all of Xros Heart members, who kept giving the most important aid for all of Digimon's sake to rebuilt this world.

Once again, it was over now.

Sighing in relief, I leaped down from the sofa. I walked slowly to the photo album.

Here, lies the story about our life ; s team where all of the members unite their heart, for one goal.

A unity with the leader was a normal boy that couldn't turn his back on the others.

A group with the core was a reckless and stubborn Digimon, who wanted to do anything to become the King.

All of these things reminded me at our journey before.

At last, now we lived without any of obligation.

But, every time I closed my eyes, I always thought about the future of this world. Was there another human who got a ticket into Digital World and a new threat appeared?

I didn't even could answer it. I didn't want to know the answer, either.

All of this world, my only wish was only one :

I don't want another war

It was enough for me. Got caught in a fight with the three head-officers, later with seven Death Generals, and in the final saved the world by borrowing all of Digimon's power along the world to gave the evil emperor a single fatal blow, and defeat him for good.

But, Digital World needed to be reconstructed again, and I was in full faith to take that position. After all, became Digimon's King was my number one goal, right?

So, it had taken one year of human world's time to finally done. But ironically, it didn't take a long time to actually ruin what had been built. It was then when Wisemon told me about a presence of world between Digital World and Human World. I kept insisted to go there, but there were complexities of the said unknown dimension. Time kept running out until he told me that he had already discovered how to do it. Before hearing all of his lectures, I, along with Ballistamon, Dorulumon, Starmons and Pickmonz, and also Cutemon went in the portal, moving us to the Taiki's Xros Loader.

When finally I got myself into the world, Wisemon told me about the newfound world - known as Digi Quartz - , I, once again joined Taiki in order to discover this new dimension. When the time had come, the Old Clockmaker told us all of the things and of course the resolve to end the abrupt change of world balance.

Later, the five legendary heroes appeared, and with me and Taiki – as the sixth heroes as the Old Clockmaker said – combined our forces to pull the Brave Snatcher, the weapon that used to beat Quartzmon and at the same time, the last hope remaining.

In the process, I had taken a fatal blow from that weapon so did Taiki, and finally Tagiru and Arresterdramon replaced us as the heroes, and as the hunter.

From that moment, I felt like a jerk that couldn't do anything in the last battle. But, I knew that what I could do was to fix the Digital World once again, and that was what I did until yesterday.

And, today is a new day.

This is the day that I'm waiting after all : have a free time to rely with my friends.

I could do anything : walk together to some place, have a picnic, cook together, and every damn fun things that human did that we could do too.

Yes, I did love to be the King. But, King also needs a rest, right?

After all, my duty is already done. When another threat comes, then I'm on it.

Putting the album on its place, I glanced at one photo that I put on the table. Picking it up carefully, I gazed at the person that in it.

These were the most important person for me ; from the time when I met them at the first time and until now.

This photo had taken when we took a rest – more like a picnic – after a full-day work.

In this photo, we were on the air. I, along with a shy rabbit digimon and mischievous purple digimon was sitting on a yellow bird digimon that look mostly like a jet. I was hugging that bird digimon's neck ( If I weren't, I would freely fall from the sky ) as I gave her a slice of cake – despite that we ate on her, she couldn't eat together so I help her -, while the rest, that two were eating the cake while sometimes took the cream and pinched it to the other face.

Looking at this picture made me smiled.

Yes, these three were my bestfriends ever.

'Sparrowmon,..' I mumbled unconsciously as I tenderly gliding my finger at the yellow bird digimon.

'…Gumdramon…' I muttered silently as I moved my finger to the purple digimon.

'…Lunamon…' I grew silent after pointing my finger to the last, the rabbit digimon.

Was I missed all of them that bad? We had been together until yesterday, and I'd already missed them?

Probably, I need to visit them.

Now.


The next chapter will be discovering the bond between Shoutmon and Gumdramon.

Constructive reviews are really appreciated :))
