The sun had set. Goku was home dining with his family. He didn't have anywhere to train much other than the occasional spar with the gentle giant, Broly, after receiving his next task from his current master, Whis. With no proper chance to train, he spent more time at home.

Chi-chi: Goku! Stop staring at your food. You're scaring Goten!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaRS2hJ3iT
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEengqJRHtx
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj2x817JSR
Goten: Are you okay dad? You've been acting kind of strange today. You barely even touched your food. But I'm not complaining! That just means more for me haha!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6YON9FEH0
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84KLMoWQZ4
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04aUvmc4py
Chi-chi: We should go visit Gohan! I'm sure he wouldn't mind going a few rounds with you. You've already turned him into a delinquent, at the very least take advantage of it.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAryuPsPk20
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep9MGuOYFq
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡew22HZTRYr
Goten: Aw.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvZllCjuR1
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.

The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6gDYi9AkP
Goku: That guy, is he really me? I don't know what it is, but I feel like he understands something I don't. Could this be what Whis meant by finding balance in my life?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAECJZOgmcR
His thoughts went on for another hour before he finally dozed off to a deep sleep. The night flew by and soon came the next day. Goku had awoken at the perfect hour to catch Gohan at a good time.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobrirskx30
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZRqQq01vh
Chi-chi: Goten, make sure to bring your homework. Your big brother Gohan will probably be glad to tutor you once he's done with your dad.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOIBb5YO8E
Goten: Right…
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuTpywv0VZ
They both huddled up against Goku so he could teleport them to Gohan's place. They arrived in a n instant, proceeding to ring the doorbell. Videl answered the door, welcoming the guests in.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLPdgelbot
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshpKSyxPpz
Chi-chi: Oh, Goku here was itching for another fight and Gohan has gotten a lot stronger recently so he thought we could stop by here for a quick round.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirPg6oV9tG
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU0avBuVCd
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoTKe3SqMc
She said letting out a big sigh.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9oIPONs9q
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2QwMi0sDu
Videl giggled.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5fD95pc4J
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuNXEgD6Xj
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPxdRIi5XI
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUo7J566Tg
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSENHtsosRe
Gohan: Well that's not exactly what I had in mind for today. But sure! How about we have some breakfast first though, I'm sure you don't want to pass on that dad.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVJyFy8buf
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9smUyz5BB
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXhJCjdscB
He asked as he lifted her up. Pan giggled andshook her arms and legs around in excitement. Goku smiled before putting her down and holding her properly again.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0pKRdW7Cb
Goku: She's sure bigger than the last time I saw her. She's half saiyan and earthling so I bet even as a baby she's strong. Maybe I could test it, just a little?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxFA61983B
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrw9tZ6Ipf
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY06gzbnO44
Goku stretched out his arm and flicked his granddaughter who reacted just in time to block the attack. However, she wasn't powerful enough to withstand the force and was knocked against a wall.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6GoFwObuO
Goku: Crap!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bwhFdi5A6
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB1TJhU8P6
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MmLGFkjdp
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaGiU1Xi72
Goku: Everything is fine!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHubStTqQt1
He said in a panic.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKTHTK6rah
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKNVK4BBXi
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9haYTwOCdL
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCECIF667rI
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43wYQfDmLX
Goku made his way to the kitchen. The table was full, with all sorts of breakfast delights. The entire family sat down to enjoy their meal. As Goku sat down to eat, he ate slowly and patiently as opposed to his usual habit of chowing down his meals in seconds. His expression was that of desperation. He fell deep within his thoughts while everyone else took pleasure in eating their meal.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStX4y0ztfF
Goku: This is all I could ask for right? A happy united family, amazing meals, and some strong friends and family I can spar with for fun. Why am I having doubts? I've never considered a different life, so why is it only now that this meal we share seems so trivial to the actual reason I'm here? I'm not that desperate for a good fight am I? There's more to enjoy right now.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DTIvfxJv4
The house suddenly shook with a force similar to an earthquake. The family panicked for a second, searching for the the source of the disturbance.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63eio59WyN
Gohan: Dad!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcrgV617wP
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPwRNybVcn
Goku: Huh?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTb9rylPBK
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHVndQHJ15
Goku looked down at his foot, realizing he had been tapping it on the ground intensely the entire time he had spent managing his thoughts. He immediately stopped his foot and turned back to his son.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkCeURyVTs
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ279IYqgYMh
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXWv6Gn7ER
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4YzNFKHzA
Goku: I'm not sure.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDfZAjNDAv
Gohan smiled and stood up from his seat, with a look of determination in his eyes. He turned a joint in his watch and instantly changed into his heroic getup. Gohan changed his tone of voice into an enthusiastic mood.
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4X2mOI6x6
Gohan: I see the problem here! It seems this warrior is looking for a powerful opponent worth his time! Luckily for him, the mighty Great Saiyaman is here to fulfill his request!
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzTO4u6AoE
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
