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!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAAqKaH4LhsB
Goku snapped out of his trance and turned to his son.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbCLjCIb2vK
Goku: Oh crap! Sorry little guy, I was just thinking about something.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAGUtd37kdOd
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!
151Please respect copyright.PENANA717NzRaUmT
Chi-chi: Goten's right, Goku. You are acting strange.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfJog1THlvQ
Goku: Well I haven't had a proper fight or training session in so long. I guess I'm just itching for some action?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAL07vHoT83r
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAoY1PuYM6Uq
Goten: Can I fight too mom!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAGseJaUzYex
Chi-chi: The only thing you're fighting is those overdue assignments mister.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzyRJx2YKKr
Goten: Aw.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzB7DXJmjHH
Goku: Cheer up Goten, you'll get to watch at least.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAOF72mnZtjZ
The Son family slept peacefully that night. All except for Goku. He wrestled with his thoughts as his doubts ate away at him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA2W8zNjIHZH
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?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAavfHymD8lU
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAWPxnuKE7Ro
Goku: Alright let's go, I'm all fired up!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAf37187Gc5d
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0Iwj3DinNR
Goten: Right…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfynTVDWa0f
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAIqusovtGeI
Videl: Goku, Chi-chi, Goten, What brings you guys here on such short notice?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmyOGFWCzoE
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhkQJXRlfSM
Videl: Saiyans, am I right?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAViqi1onwCW
Chi-chi: I'm sure even my Gohan puts you through similar situations like Goku does to me.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAR0nd4vvZ18
She said letting out a big sigh.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAlR1kSZCH8x
Videl: It runs in their blood I guess.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA5jiSoJZpl2
Videl giggled.
151Please respect copyright.PENANABgY7rxHe35
Videl: Anyways, make yourselves at home, Gohan is up stairs playing with Pan, they should come down any minute now.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYlwaGvIpcu
Right as Videl finished talking, Gohan came levitating down with Pan by his side.
151Please respect copyright.PENANArtORhHRl1F
Gohan: Dad? What are you doing here?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAidO0l99egb
Goku: Your old man just wants a little thrill, how about we go at it for a bit Gohan?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAycoWxEP2kD
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAR2zraV5UlA
Gohan descended from the air and held his daughter in his arms while walking towards his father. He handed Goku his granddaughter.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXjPArG80uZ
Goku: I haven't seen you in a minute, Pan. How have you been?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAPZdw5UwdUi
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAj2mjNM8smq
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?
151Please respect copyright.PENANATaRL4BG1Jd
Goku thought to himself as he let go of Pan, allowing her to float.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAZfZ224xUm6
Goku: Okay Pan, grandpa is gonna hit you with a powerful flick. Use your strength to block it got that?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAcEzHuaT2Ud
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANABED0lWAP4y
Goku: Crap!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAjnmKC2EwHp
Pan burst into tears, catching everyone's attention.
151Please respect copyright.PENANABOoO48fAnl
Gohan: Hey, is everything alright?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhetVp3Bw2A
Goku hurried to his granddaughter and held her in an attempt to calm her down.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAe9oBF890JR
Goku: Everything is fine!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsf52H9W0Oy
He said in a panic.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0S4c3fDdyt
Goku: Now now, no more crying, okay?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfGKAgZbaQh
Goten peeked into the living room where Goku stood with Pan.
151Please respect copyright.PENANATb6VTuUiNm
Goten: Dad, mom told me to come get you, the food is ready!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAUFnDijvYJZ
Goku: Oh right. I'll be right there..
151Please respect copyright.PENANA2mRf7lRKSq
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAG3bv54eJ9P
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAw53OZCLse3
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANADS6Z8QOgS4
Gohan: Dad!
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9N3uvoHmVs
Goku broke out of his trance and faced his son.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhv8H998g6S
Goku: Huh?
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8UrnHalAtC
Gohan: Quit tapping your foot, dad, you're shaking the house!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdoavMYUz1T
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAggOhjnxVxs
Goku: I'm sorry, Gohan, I-I don't know what got into me.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAKNDv1HaOGS
Gohan: It's fine dad. Are you okay? You have been acting strange the entire time and have barely even touched your food.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfoJJYqy8QE
Chi-chi: Yeah he's right Goku, you have been a little weird all this time. What's wrong?
151Please respect copyright.PENANANv1ZVp6yhH
Goku: I'm not sure.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAyDVtSKM1Dv
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAtoYNO3yGW0
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!
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6cNnLYkma8
Goku stood with a less gloomy look on his face.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAOkUf2SO6Na
Goku: Hehe, now we're talking!

Three space pods made their way to the planet inhabited by the tatsu race.
