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!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIz0pmYP8a
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnsAP0MgSK
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pqMObMHpp
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!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMH8LRukPN
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlV8FjsbTE
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAeiPs7Fzb
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv3fNk8uSo
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVR2BbEv3h7
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSUFX4uFkR
Goten: Aw.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubsxzLvNkh
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjwMGiQa0R
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?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdMRikE8TM
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HlYDoLso4
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGwCPwUlgd
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4K7SQzrkd
Goten: Right…
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhv0HlymPp
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflufJ3Q3sF
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33fTotYbIC
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh1GaiBsXu
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG1vQ99mb4
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gTd8qzk3c
She said letting out a big sigh.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaiGMXNj4h
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcCh1y4Icb
Videl giggled.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61HRCxRfMW
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrhJWM7BcT
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8rq1ufLbB
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA50wAHHJIX
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJyzdU5iX9
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNq3u67X1T
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yY965RcMR
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8hdyK5nzn
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqb0yFpi3a
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?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzi82KW9FZ
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNopA3cbMTB
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9M85KbEKh
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hKain3fvM
Goku: Crap!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5coNt7AMZ
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVx12DkcV9
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHY9fBYuwm
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P5VRvoCIq
Goku: Everything is fine!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9PyxmKjAG
He said in a panic.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGtUoFDBLw
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gtjr6sCyt
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59VwuLRhiq
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxVRaE1cJl
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4eNCsVZ6k
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihbuzm7VvF
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.

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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYmjoWQRgx
Gohan: Dad!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6kh4vPThH
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWxyHeNihU
Goku: Huh?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3fKFISohS
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YQIgTPUTw
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWVqMsSeep
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdJimjpEIX
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR38UsTzOG
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNNX7SGcGZ
Goku: I'm not sure.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaAXXHyeRI
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIrjTifARv
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!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80sObLuPDd
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMVjfx5IGk
