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!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd7zmoBXlc
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3wDYkI7id
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUvbMtCR1s
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!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3MqlJ4lKi
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPa5xABrCo
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQmj9zLUCa
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7j85wGe9s
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgFZKKrCgX
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5kbogBptc
Goten: Aw.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAU8vnDG0XC
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuPQ4KjbRP
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ0Ztp225J
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?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRwKHyMVP0
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTNJXlompA
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ162p9wXJDJ
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZRKlqgW6G
Goten: Right…
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZTwai85MO
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoSOdVxcbI
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKpVOw4ahu
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8lSI3btoE
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitX3oNR8ut
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkeDqajkxd
She said letting out a big sigh.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUxxeSwHUk
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLNGUvXVqq
Videl giggled.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysQnFzePZl
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF9cA2a1Lx
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeZ6DClI0P
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFEHQ5XJ27
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBCFu1AtyZ
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.

Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMAuhU1Z7T
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrAvdLB24z
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1ynFl4Nvt
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?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXhTXxEXxc
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT3RLDlBEh
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9yIIrlmzH
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKxWlyJ85a
Goku: Crap!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WSIqoGSLv
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UfObGiRF3
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4s8bo8dtG
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl1I5AUECd
Goku: Everything is fine!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOHyELq9rE
He said in a panic.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI7tuogyka
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmdV2WrBRF
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud2DRDWwkt
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9L8hs3tnX
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWor8e4xGCT
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bGYpYNarg
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx3SsErKoH
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYZgYcZk6J
Gohan: Dad!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlGksk1iee
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7YidPJfxH
Goku: Huh?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3VorvQXYS
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZRN5xntfZ
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvnvswm0fm
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ5gFK5G9a
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugDqDVnzvK
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVw7Nq1Pfw
Goku: I'm not sure.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCATNu5bhqR
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.
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc3mnJDOSU
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!
368Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG4Mq6GGXO
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
