(Shawn POV)
My hands were trembling as I fidgeted with my fingers, I was sweating bullets while shitting bricks! I can't believe what I'm doing… we're sailing back to Dawn Island in the East Blue. I heard in the newspaper how Luffy kicked Doflamingo's ass & saved Dressrosa
So that was the reason he hadn't been coming to the meetings lately, last time he did he presented to me… my devil fruit. I was shocked when I saw it, I swallowed thick salvia as I stared at it. He said he was going to use it as a prize in a coliseum to lure in… Luffy
After Fishman island Ace had left the straw hats to go back to the Whitebeard & was now currently Commander of the 1st Division. Back to the coliseum, Ace had gone back to help Luffy get my fruit back, is what I heard from a little sly fox
She told me how the revolutionary army was there as well & she saw Koala, I immediately calmed myself just at the thought of Koala smiling at me again. I jump when I heard a knock on the door, I realized crystals formed again around me so I force myself out of the room & answered the door
"… yes…?"
"Papa?" I look & see it was Torch, she looked up at me worriedly "You don't look well papa!" I chuckle
"I'm alright." she crossed her arms
"Don't lie to me, I can tell what's a lie & what's not, papa." I sigh & ruffle her head before leaning against the doorframe & sliding down to the floor
"I guess I'm a bit nervous to go back, ya know? I've been dead for 2 years & the people I call family live on that island! I don't know what they'll think if they see me…" I bury my face in my knees & I felt her hug me
"Papa… they'll still think if you as you, the WILL still keep loving you, until the end." I start tearing as I slowly hug her back as I slowly smile
"… thank you, that really helps." I look at her & saw her smile brightly at me
"Its nothing!"
(Time Skip)
We docked on the island & I was anxiously tapping my foot on the ground as my stomach did flips, I felt Volpina place a hand on my shoulder as she nervously smiled at me
"Your feeling oozy too?" she nodded
"Obviously, we haven't been here for 12 years Boss–sama!" I playfully pout
"Can you please call me by my name?" she rolled her eyes
"I'll think about it, Shaw…" I smile cheerfully & hug her from behind, she laughs lightly & pats my shoulder "Let's go now, I wanna see Makino–sama!" I nod & we get off the ship. The trio, Storm, Will & Valor follow us as we made our way to Makino's bar
I was legit, shitting bricks right now. I gulp what was left in my throat & found myself in front of her bar, I take a deep breath before opening the doors & walking in with a straight face with only Volpina following. Inside there was Makino, the mayor & hell, Dadan & the mountain bandits
"Oh dear, I'm sorry sir, but how can I help you?" she said with a few giggles, but stopped when she looked at me but then at-- "Volpina–san! Is that really you?!" she came from the back if the counter & goes to hug her but she (Volpina) puts her hand up
"U–Uh, Makino–sama…" she tilted her head to the side & soon enough everyone was looking at us, Volpina then motioned to me so Makino looked at me, she intensely stared at me
"Do I… know you?" I grab her hands & smile when I pulled my hat off & stared down at her, she gasped as her eyes widened & tears appeared
"I hope you can forgive me Makino, for upsetting & lying to you." she snatched her hands back & covered her mouth with her hand as her tears ran down her face "Oh please don't cry, sh sh. Don't cry." I muttered as I pull her into a hug & she quickly hugged me back
"S–Shaw–kun!!"
"What?!" Dadan had widened eyes as she marched over to us & pulled us both into a hug, I laugh as I felt tears appear & she cried loudly as Makino buried her face in my chest
"How are you alive Shaw?!?! We all thought you died!!!" soon enough everyone else joined the group hug & I cried out in joy
"Fate decided my time wasn't up yet!" we soon all broke into laughter, Dadan put me & I let Makino go. She wiped away the rest if her tears & made me crouch a bit, by pushing my shoulders down, so she can kiss my forehead
"I-- we! Shaw–kun, we all missed you!!"
"& don't think we don't love you!"
(Third Person POV)
"Oh oh! Shaw–kun, Volpina–san! You have to meet someone!" Makino said as she we to get them after Shaw called in everyone. Dadan was blown away from the three children called Shaw papa, she thought he got married & actually had kids
"Calm down Dadan, they're merely my adoptive children."
"Adoptive?!" he laughed when the three turned into their normal forms & that shocked nearly everyone "They're birds?!"
"Yeah, mythical ones to be accurate!" the three large birds grin & press themselves against his face as he smiled, suddenly they all look over & saw Makino carrying something… or, someone
"Shaw-kun, I'd like you to meet Shelby, my little baby boy." he looked over, same with the trio, & awed at the little red head "He's also your little brother." he chuckles & twirls a piece of Shelby's hair around his finger
"He is so cute, & his red hair will only remind me of Torch." Shelby giggles & grabbed his finger "How old is he?"
"2! Just recently too! Do you," she asked as she motioned him to Shelby, asking Shaw if he wanted to hold him (Shelby)
"Please." he carefully took the child into his arms & swooned at how cute the baby was, the three birds aw
"Aw~ he's so chubby I wanna squish his cheeks!" ← Torch
"Chubby?! He's cute I'm gonna die!" ← Frost
"Nah-uh! He's adorable I'm feeling an electric vibe coming from this child!" ← Spark
"You always do!" Frost & Torch said in unison, the three argued on a table but Shaw smiled sweetly at the child before caressing his cheek on Shelby's
"There's no doubt that this child utterly reminds me of Sabo when he was just a little baby… I miss him so dearly." his smile grows wider as tears slowly fell from his cheeks onto Shelby's blanket
"Shaw–kun!"
"Papa/Master!""
"Shawn!" he chuckles when Shelby lifts his little arms up & wiped his (Shawn's) tears away with a little pout
"N–No… cry!"
"Okay Shelby… okay."
(Extended Ending)
"So Makino." she looked at him with her signature smile & tilted her head to the side as she held Shelby in her arms again
"Yes?"
"Your Shelby's biological mother, right?" she nodded "Then you know who's the father, right?" she nodded again, but was a little confused
"Yes, why?"
"You wouldn't mind telling me who you lost your innocence to, right?!" everyone could clearly see the anger & burning passion in his eyes
"Oh dear."
"Grab him!" Volpina & Valor grabbed Shaw & held him back as he started yelling with flames in his eyes
"Tell me who did it!! I'm wanna kill them for having sex with you without my permission!!!"
"Shawn, calm down!" Volpina yelled
"Plus its her decision dude!"
"But she's to nice & perfect for any man!!"
