A/N: Inspired by the fact that Gomamon and Naruto have the same voice actress, and Junko Takeuchi, on one of the Naruto radio shows, played guitar and sang a song about her cats. I kept Gomamon's song in Japanese because it wouldn't be nearly as cute in English. XD


Gomamon was being uncharacteristically shy.

"Come on Gomamon, it'll be fine," Matt urged him. "Part of playing music is sharing it with others."

Gomamon just hid behind one of the couch cushions. "But this is embarrassing! I don't even know why I wrote this song!"

Joe frowned. "Come on, it's just me, Matt, and Gabumon here. And we all know you, we've known you for years. It'll be fine, and we want to hear you."

Gomamon peeked out from behind the cushion at the three of them, as though torn between the choice of performing or hiding. Finally, as he looked at their expectant eyes, he sighed.

"Okay okay, I'll give it a try."

Joe cheered, while Matt and Gabumon clapped appreciatively. "Go for it!"

Gomamon carefully crawled over to the other couch, and propped himself behind the guitar that was already there. He took the neck of the guitar in one flipper, the tips of his claws gently touching the fingerboard. "Okay, so this is the song I wrote... Gomamon's Cat Song."

He strummed the guitar strings and began to sing.

"Neko neko neko neko neko neko nyaaaan!"

Matt couldn't help himself. He just burst out laughing, unable to stop, as Gabumon held his own muzzle closed and Joe's face was oddly stiff, as though he was trying desperately to hold back his own laughter out of politeness.

Gomamon stopped playing, gazing at them. "Well good, you guys laughed," he said with a sheepish grin. "I was hoping someone would find it funny."

Joe was unable to hold himself back, and finally began laughing as well. "That's what you were worried about? That no one would find it funny?" he gasped.

"Well, yeah, it wasn't supposed to be serious. Want me to play the rest?"

Gabumon took several deep breaths. "Why don't you give us a few moments to recover? If the rest of the song is like that, I think we'll all suffocate if you play it now."
