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!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAW4698T03Bi
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAlW7HgqD5x9
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAIO1X2bBdGa
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!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAYWW1BXJtbh
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAG6flFuKmIw
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAUlIT6YvhGZ
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAT25yWlz327
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAmMVkobkmk9
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAV5FclgXbo0
Goten: Aw.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA28WOOT3Wce
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAvUIDKOsy8v
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAHtIUnb4sIw
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?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAxn8lF1UNn5
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA4xxCI9CAhb
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
665Please respect copyright.PENANA78LYFYg3xk
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAGfu4Qk1Tmt
Goten: Right…
665Please respect copyright.PENANAwIR4zKDf5H
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAeA5yHKN0qM
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
665Please respect copyright.PENANApeDVkc7Wly
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAqrIpduYey2
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
665Please respect copyright.PENANARRDl8YaDTD
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAmGPvGbPt2j
She said letting out a big sigh.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA12iSCF48sA
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAeUNiGOjhP6
Videl giggled.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAy9SzSquQSZ
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA64wHtBOn7B
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAi581FlG0QJ
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
665Please respect copyright.PENANA8H4xcr6Otu
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
665Please respect copyright.PENANASOyVTOYBAD
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAcVvdHkWHiJ
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA8Tp7BSrXGe
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAsnF8BqE6s6
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAKC1FzodAws
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?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAp9Gxz28bmI
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAZMkq27crxK
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAc40wvcKhux
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAtJVKQJulyG
Goku: Crap!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAu7p3RC8Yyj
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA743nyOU2hD
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAOdfNQdKJzt
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAx3eARwf6qp
Goku: Everything is fine!
665Please respect copyright.PENANA1TYuQyNhRw
He said in a panic.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA1OUuGouWpn
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAJhnIbfb0KB
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAi6Bn8Wfa03
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAsRVfgHNmsN
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
665Please respect copyright.PENANAscxjL6VwMV
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAOLbJxxX30s
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA2bU19kORp9
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAQRbsNmYnsV
Gohan: Dad!
665Please respect copyright.PENANA7oXVfN4QU2
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAlkaEF6O4sY
Goku: Huh?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAdlbK3ckEzs
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAb4mQa9T4ss
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAOnL7sEjYLX
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
665Please respect copyright.PENANASkhaoRjuWK
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAC47OiqdGty
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
665Please respect copyright.PENANAlYrRn67sQQ
Goku: I'm not sure.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAqcxj1IyT7Y
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.
665Please respect copyright.PENANAV55sVqIbT0
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!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAnZgYZlSW4H
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
665Please respect copyright.PENANA7fHTfOg5qb
Goku: Hehe, now we're talking!
665Please respect copyright.PENANAPaGKCPUVh6
Three space pods made their way to the planet inhabited by the tatsu race.
