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!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XSeTgjzVH
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JQNwMIOjd
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqDUtlE718
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!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHWPMS110N
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGZIlW6Bdu
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiUbh0KhG4
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RR3G6TczC
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjp0Uakn0s
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSmjOW7YMY
Goten: Aw.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzPdawfXiW
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGZoN7ucXx
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrofjoIVuap
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?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBvy0T24HS
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiGPMsQhOr
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrfbF2gL9q
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEdFa6vZd6
Goten: Right…
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxZWP3qxSz
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4gNJHcU4Z
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjXQ2pWNPz
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWh8Nfyd0NK
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv7ek0xFLW
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13EXBuZnU1
She said letting out a big sigh.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkvpSDcw75
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuduQg6rQo
Videl giggled.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgyTBrjiZW
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjZpuAyhXe
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWN5TZ7ivl
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPM0nWqUpO
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FlxqhLMSa
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9gnYEarJi
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sVQpGZ5zv
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLyqtBZX90
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEovIM12S8
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?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtP38K9h9T
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcZTmBt3GV
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIAUw51iGe
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXbxN9HjBH
Goku: Crap!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS2A4aGoWF
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQxpVYzWMR
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8drIVxXjsj
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhjwikLDkq
Goku: Everything is fine!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILCMwBaJto
He said in a panic.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dmW6VyAYw
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3pyEnSwmP
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaeVImsmNz
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3LXnetHXz
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5gAMs2Xzk
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN2Yg8yM9o
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.

Gohan: Dad!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXbyJGsmIU
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETs3YYrn5i
Goku: Huh?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMV9u2o1tq
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BQ3ZX1kVO
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A8neooAh1
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqQ6bvbU2m
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YjEFfKQnl
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBtg20ibjR
Goku: I'm not sure.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv13aqqnUS6
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.
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2v6oQSocN
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!
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpYQuSWCA6
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
