"Ne, Papa, how did you and Mama meet?"

"How we met? *chuckles* That's quite the story, Sweetheart. You sure you want to hear it?"

"Of course! I always love your stories, Papa! Like the one about the humans!" 

"Well, then, I guess I can't stop my little princess, now can I? *grins* Fine then. Our story begins in the Lake Zone, during the Bagra war....."

"Now, now, Shoutmon, it's okay. I'm sure you'll be fine!"

"You say that, yet I can't help but feel nervous," a red dragon-like Digimon shot back, a bit of sweat falling down his forehead. His claws were twiddling themselves, carelessly showing their owner's true feelings if it wasn't obvious from the start. 

Jijimon could only chuckle, "It's just a meeting, Shoutmon. You DID say that you wanted to be the Digimon King, so what kind of king can't even meet his own subjects?" 

"B-But-!" "No protests, young man. Besides, it's just a meeting." 

"JIJIMON!" a feminine voice suddenly called out, making the duo turn to see a purple Digimon make her way towards them. 

Jijimon's eyes brightened, "Why, if it isn't little Dorumon!", before he wrapped her into a warm hug. 

The purple Digimon blushed seeing this, "J-Jijimon! D-Don't do that!" 

"But you're so adorable," Jijimon teased, poking her cheeks a bit too in order to prove his point. Dorumon just sputtered and blushed like a little tomato, unaware of the fully pink Shoutmon. Jijimon noticed, though, and only chuckled as he turned to Dorumon, "Dorumon, this is Shoutmon. Shoutmon, this is Dorumon, a child under my care." 

"I-It's a pleasure to meet you Dorumon!" Shoutmon hastily bowed, remembering his manners as he performed it in front of her. 

Dorumon's blush covered her face, "S-Same here! W-What are you doing here anyway?" 

"I-I'm here to talk to the adults about the Bagra army!" Shoutmon replied, feeling slightly prideful as he puffed his chest to prove it. 

"The Bagra army?" Dorumon repeated. 

"Y-Yeah!" Shoutmon nodded. "I-I want to be the Digimon King to protect everyone!" 

"Really?!" Dorumon's eyes sparkled. "Wow, so cool! You're so amazing!" 

"R-Really?!" Shoutmon's face flared up hearing this. "T-Thanks!" 

"It's fine!" Dorumon smiled, filling Shoutmon with hope and confidence he had never felt before as she continued, "I hope you succeed, Shoutmon!" 

"O-Of course I will!" Shoutmon puffed up his chest again. "After all, I'm the Digimon King!" 

"Great!: Dorumon smiled back. "I have to go back now, though. It's getting near my curfew. Bye bye, Shoutmon!" 

"B-Bye, Dorumon!" Shoutmon waved goodbye to her as she went back to her home, with Jijimon watching from the sidelines with a small chuckle appearing on his face. 

"That was the beginning of our love story... The one that eventually led up to you, Princess!" 

"Wow, so amazing, Papa! Can you tell me more?"

"*chuckles* Maybe next time, Princess. Papa needs to meet his friends." 

"Fwiends?" 

"Fwiends. Papa has to meet with them tonight, so stay safe okay, little puffball?" 

"Okay Papa! Night night!" 

"Night night, Little Princess... *kisses her forehead before leaving the room*"
