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!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAjHAkHZYNEI
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAVs8P79yX83
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA9Nnjbgq5D6
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!
352Please respect copyright.PENANA08s0WYWOTc
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
352Please respect copyright.PENANASzTWTDucfF
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAOwu3MrMVGO
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAYypoJS1r6N
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAaikdToWGQh
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAEp5CkWLOQd
Goten: Aw.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAQmHjZ2gENP
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
352Please respect copyright.PENANABX6rgNHqW9
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAO2yXcMMVlz
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?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAIEdj120K0c
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANARKmQ6JuIWO
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
352Please respect copyright.PENANA1cZVmWqtVH
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA71CGErRB87
Goten: Right…
352Please respect copyright.PENANADD1rAPaviE
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAZB8cxYbS5q
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
352Please respect copyright.PENANApItd6zaN5E
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAd8Vtbl3n9n
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAsFNqtGJke6
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAbC7xKIr3gf
She said letting out a big sigh.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAnFixthCErH
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAFOM6kHGcDi
Videl giggled.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAtq5t9omXIY
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA3KGqI0Qqy2
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAfteVBuLutF
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAItNMC9k52w
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
352Please respect copyright.PENANABLttO2CVAI
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA601c0yBmw2
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAonHyUYjkaD
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
352Please respect copyright.PENANASIAqL852J6
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAXJXsnZzcxd
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?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAvphI3em7xg
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
352Please respect copyright.PENANADSSUGM9Wtv
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5YIzRRIJd
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7lapJ3lhp
Goku: Crap!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAGgjIJpCPml
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
352Please respect copyright.PENANABEIJAuolQc
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
352Please respect copyright.PENANA5iWWQ3H1k3
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAV89vcxMvjC
Goku: Everything is fine!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAiqfnTLMvdy
He said in a panic.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA5pklPiM0Mz
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
352Please respect copyright.PENANARiXV9zwg6z
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
352Please respect copyright.PENANADDE52i0ubT
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
352Please respect copyright.PENANACG9hbDFaAN
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
352Please respect copyright.PENANAhJfi1vhMOq
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA78MTVcTUcW
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAjz1AWPJY30
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAH5YLPfloS0
Gohan: Dad!
352Please respect copyright.PENANARs9QXUJsQy
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAGuDq7y7sni
Goku: Huh?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAZKad8YqZo9
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkXzCsWT6Hw
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAj6yOSOQWlC
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
352Please respect copyright.PENANANnONmAj9v1
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
352Please respect copyright.PENANA7vFO8Ivico
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
352Please respect copyright.PENANAPDyRIOMpzz
Goku: I'm not sure.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAB0YbGcl0RA
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.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAtdno0xFv0k
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!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkOOce5eWIy
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
352Please respect copyright.PENANAd4xhnVV6ms
Goku: Hehe, now we're talking!
352Please respect copyright.PENANAkcMHwpiFkk
Three space pods made their way to the planet inhabited by the tatsu race.
