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!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGcBYY4unpi
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
347Please respect copyright.PENANA2086aEIaFF
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVnxGByaWzn
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!
347Please respect copyright.PENANA5qakBOhWDY
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAn37laN9jHz
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAJQbSR6o9Ud
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVcyuIu0JtX
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
347Please respect copyright.PENANA63yBaQIDYW
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAHO4ExdLMNl
Goten: Aw.
347Please respect copyright.PENANArxymUzxu8c
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAiIEP5WheLE
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAUwYxJr4pNp
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?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAvSlN0PUYg7
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAW9VpKhVEgT
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
347Please respect copyright.PENANA62UQb6cuFy
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAZxRdi0I03C
Goten: Right…
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOZhYdVfjMH
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAmquX7dSHbO
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAqPca7W0yYv
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANA6wnsZn9jLN
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdIqdyZe9Q6
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
347Please respect copyright.PENANA7hlZyKl7EF
She said letting out a big sigh.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAayLsBQUR9g
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxBpL5ABS5z
Videl giggled.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAvWyIMlh2SZ
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
347Please respect copyright.PENANA2wWUgdz2WB
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdFpgCO0JDT
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAJr2mlB5oIL
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAFCMnAbwfGv
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxrZoBY4IKc
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAXKAfeH9Lip
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWmIcW84WX3
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhIvZcDebvO
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?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAXRAtxbUB1h
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAELpgY0x7pg
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAN1y4VZJfdb
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAKCvbBJ7DCo
Goku: Crap!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAwEE37yUgsv
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAPOFCg4VUXG
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAaE2iOzJECC
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAgVPVW6P6Fm
Goku: Everything is fine!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVJxkO8bYAv
He said in a panic.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAJDaQbvUcFA
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
347Please respect copyright.PENANApOrYDes1d1
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAopv3MYyceu
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhtXFnwO4Lg
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
347Please respect copyright.PENANAuTFHvCSVNR
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANABV7yTdMKBD
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAsWqokU09rc
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAAfSubmiuOD
Gohan: Dad!
347Please respect copyright.PENANASHVFwMiqwc
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnCknQgPJRE
Goku: Huh?
347Please respect copyright.PENANA59CnlPcxdD
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAPsIMK33VpA
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAeg26No188P
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAq8JQJQ1foI
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnypl3kCvZq
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
347Please respect copyright.PENANAvrLEv91MQj
Goku: I'm not sure.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAsjRXIhfrzY
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.
347Please respect copyright.PENANAqWB1316XFI
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!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAek0npVGfUD
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
347Please respect copyright.PENANA36Yhazb0G9
Goku: Hehe, now we're talking!
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQczKZaJj8C
Three space pods made their way to the planet inhabited by the tatsu race.
