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!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcvcljk5lI
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2yu5AuBnd
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFrwXGHPMQ
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!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bUQGjUrVO
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPOGZ2gMk8
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXJNikferC
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu3rpgpXT4
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pjvs7PBDZ
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy6pGiYJrS
Goten: Aw.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAcaJZJlEZ
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYFF7Ba8Jt
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wMIAk3oKt
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?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrv0qpgcWP
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0U0XEaTfZ
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImiwpDBnQq
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX9fo2GyZl
Goten: Right…
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUYHhbsIUv
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk88taEUidr
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpu3JdZMlC
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8Dxz9JzUo
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVEBLQE78c
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjs5Ly0NMy
She said letting out a big sigh.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog08hwR0Mp
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETaDqsEoPp
Videl giggled.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI91IMvSd9o
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAwsYxuwOW
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg5xD9Smco
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrNkjqTbdX
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFqP9J4bdS
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyGaPp2OcI
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBMltvMCAs
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSFovWcHz7
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZjqHYO6Mr
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?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuMMyY2VVO
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOy18hbDqX
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm1eVReMVA
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRZEalb6Ip
Goku: Crap!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUP9DKzswZ
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3nXCqllYW
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WAGxrLq6P
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r9BRhWPHj
Goku: Everything is fine!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlZwwfetId
He said in a panic.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVmUnfVHkG
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTgDM8e5Bq
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo19jDjWCfA
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPO2x2g5zl
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ0yImlwnS
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFUx3H1px9
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvoIszq2Rj
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmzO86qoCF
Gohan: Dad!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtgY9r9OBS
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i5kVj14Ae
Goku: Huh?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyGWiJAXPk
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKlrFEJIh4
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G2Rfihjij
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDREtrdnht
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQig8CkHWMW
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q5l5EUmtU
Goku: I'm not sure.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsUq4b5BQt
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.
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREdjzzaEk2
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!
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq99eJShzM
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
