A Fine Balance

*Caulifla's POV*

The group of women wonder through the mall looking through shop after shop. None of which intrigued Caulifla whatsoever. After taking the groups sweet time in a scent shop Caulifla stood outside slowly getting irritated. 'Goku.. when I get my hands on you...urrrgggghhhh!' She keeps thinking these thoughts until her eyes get caught on a small shop on the opposite side of the mall she slowly makes her way to the store front as she gazes at a red tank top with solid black strings that sit on the mannequins shoulders, the tank top had a wave the front with a turtle and seahorse on the back with the seahorse's tail wrapping around the turtle with the two animals riding the wave. Caulifla's eyes shined at the shirt when her loving gaze is snapped into reality when Videl puts her hand on her shoulder.

Videl: "Thats a very pretty shirt! Has something finally caught your eye?"

Caulifla: looking around with embarrassment "Umm... y-yeah I do like it."

Videl: takes her hand and starts walking into the shop "Well come on then we'll have you try it on!"

Time goes by with Videl having Caulifla trying on multitudes of clothes, some she was meh with and a few she was happy with. She settled on her tank top and some camo cargo pants that was Red, black and white, she loved the pants just because they were baggy and had tons of pockets. Videl didn't understand but was happy she was happy. She also got a giant T-shirt that went down to the middle of her thighs. Again, the baggy and flow just felt right. She had Videl pay for them and bagged for her and held the bag to her chest in genuine happiness. They walk out of the shop back to Bulma and Chi Chi who had just walked out of the scent shop. Caulifla's face shifts as she see's Chi Chi staring at her yet again. 'I don't know why.. but her stare is like daggers, I can barely breathe when her eyes lock-onto me.. I can see now why Goku mated with her.. she's intense.' Videl notices Chi Chi staring at Caulifla with red hot eyes.

Videl: "Well lets get some food huh?"

Everyone seems to like this idea and heads into the malls courtyard to eat the mall's best Ramen and BBQ shop. The group sit down after getting some food and Caulifla looks down at her food and her stomach rumbles hard while looking at the immaculate Ramen and the Tempura Shrimp with Pork Ribs. She looks up at the other girls who grab utensils and eat their food without a mess. She picks up chopsticks and just stares at them.

Videl: "Oh! You pull them apart and put them between your fingers and use the leverage to hold you food."

Caulifla does what Videl shows her and handles some food but starts to struggle. Videl grabs her hand and puts the chopsticks correctly in her hands and slowly shows her how to use them. Caulifla smiles at Videl and slowly starts picking up how to use them.

Videl: "Oh wow! You're a fast learner! You'll do well her Cauli!"

Caulifla looks at her for a moment, normally she hates that nickname but with Videl, something about it fits. She actually likes being called this from her. The girls eat their food with a nice feeling in the air.

Bulma: "So Caulifla, tell us about yourself."

Caulifla: "Oh! Ummm.. well im a Saiyan, hmmm.. im from Universe 6 and im just trying to get stronger for my gang on my home planet."

Bulma, Chi Chi, and Videl just blink blankly for a minute before one of them speaks up.

Videl: "What hold on a moment, you're from another universe??"

Bulma: "You're a Saiyan?!?"

Videl: "You're more interested by the Saiyan thing? What about the fact there is another universe? I know Goku explained to us where he was going, but I thought he was just being Goku and goofing."

Bulma: "Eh, I was already suspecting the whole different universe thing since my son came back from the future."

Caulifla: "Well actually there are 12 I guess.."

Videl: "You see!? Man.. i've really been out of the loop here, its been three years and I barely understand what happened. Gohan barely explained what happened before he went back to work."

Bulma: "Well im sure its more than we think, we'll just be happy the boys deal with it so we don't have to, god knows i've seen my fair share of insane things just on this planet, im not even sure what else happens outside this world, even beerus is a stretch for me but hey, we have it. What about you Chi Chi?"

Chi Chi: "I mean about what?"

Bulma: "Well about Caulifla? You've been relatively quiet this whole time."

Videl: "If I may.. I've been sensing some hostility from you to Caulifla. Im not entirely sure why. She seems perfectly fine to me. Whats going on?"

Caulifla relaxes a bit with what Videl had said because someone finally pointed it out and with how she was staring at her but she didn't want to be the one to say anything.

Chi Chi: "Nothing is going on. Im just not sure what her intentions are here."

Bulma: "Intentions?"

Chi Chi: "I mean why she is here? What is she doing with Goku, what does she want."

Caulifla: "Okay.. I was trying to be respectful because im not from here and I don't know anyone here other than a few people but I don't get your gripe lady! I've done nothing to you. I've done nothing to your family and yet here you are giving me crap. What did I do!?!"

Bulma: "Chi Chi.. she's just visiting im not following with what's wrong with Caulifla here."

Chi Chi: "I'd like to know why this Saiyan woman wants, coming to our universe and trying to find Goku and she shows up wearing my sons Gi. I want to know what YOUR plans are here with him."

Caulifla: "What do you want me to say huh? Im here to train. Goku is the strongest being i've ever seen in my life, he inspires many people to be better and he did that with me. So im really understanding what you're getting at here."

Bulma: "Chi Chi, you're not thinking what I think you're thinking are you?"

Chi Chi: "You bet I am"

Videl: "Im getting lost here now."

Caulifla: "Same here."

Bulma: "Chi Chi here.. Thinks you are here for Goku."

Caulifla: "Well I am?? So what?"

Videl: "Okay im following.. Cauli, she means you want Goku. In a you know... a one on one way."

Caulifla takes a few moments to think about it and after giving it a decent thought she comes to the final conclusion to what Chi Chi is talking about.

Caulifla: "You think im here to mate with Goku!?!?"

Chi Chi: "I mean you said it."

Bulma: "Chi Chi!"

Chi Chi: "Well am I wrong!?"

Videl: "Chi Chi, thats not fa-" Caulifla quickly cuts her off

Caulifla: "And if you're not wrong? What about it? What if I am after Goku like that!? What do you care?"

Chi Chi: "Excuse me!?"

Caulifla: she stands up from her chair with her hands clasped at the edge of her table "What if!? I only came her to mate with Goku!? What about it huh?? Why would you care?"

Videl: "Caulifla, hold on a moment.."

Chi Chi: also stands up from her chair and slaps her hands on the table "I care because I don't want my childhood friend to be swayed by some Saiayn Bimbo!"

Bulma: "Chi Chi, take a second to breathe here.."

Caulifla: inches herself over the table with anger showing on her face "Saiyan Bimbo!?!?"

Chi Chi: also inches closer over the table with distain on her face "SAIYAN!! BIMBO!!"

The two woman are practically a foot from eachothers face gritting their teeth and are seconds away from tossing the table and lashing out at one one another. Bulma and Videl are just in the back trying to stay out of it but are trying their best to intervene. After a few moments before chaos erupts Piccolo lands in the courtyard which causes the girls to lose their focus on the argument and stare at him.

Bulma: "Oh Piccolo just in time. Please tell me you need something."

Piccolo: "Uhhh... no. I just took Pan and Bulla back home and thought you should know that Bulla had punched Pan because they were arguing who was stronger... Goten or Trunks."

Videl takes Pan and Bulma take s Bulla and seperates. Piccolo just looks at Chi Chi and Caulifla and senses that previous anger.

Piccolo: "Did I interrupt something?"

Bulma: "No no! You came at the perfect time! I was just about to take Chi Chi home."

Videl: "I was also going to take Caulifla home so again perfect timing!"

The group splits up with Videl taking Caulifla back to Goku's place. On the walk home Videl chats Caulifla up.

Videl: "Sorry about Chi Chi.. I don't know what got into her.."

Caulifla: "Its okay Videl.. im sure she was just worried about Goku. Im not sure why she was THAT worried but I can sorta understand it."

Videl: "Its good you're understanding, you're stronger than I would have been, but she's always been loving to me."

Caulifla: "Its okay, I still had a great time with you Videl, thank you.. I really needed this."

Videl: "Anytime Cauli, if you need anything feel free to swing on over and we'll do this again."

Caulifla and Videl end their walk an hour later and make it to Goku's house. The two give eachother a hug and Videl pulls a small bag out of her big bag and hands it to Caulifla.

Caulifla: "W-what is this?"

Videl: "I just got you something to remember me by!"

Caulifla: she opens up the bag to find light blue pants and a shirt made of silk "Oh Videl they feel amazing! Thank you!"

Videl: "Anytime Cauli! Its nice to always make new friends! I'll see you another time so don't be a stranger!"

Caulifla: "I won't thank you! Be safe!" She waves Videl goodbye as Videl walks home

Caulifla makes her way inside the house and heads to her room, she takes the Gi Goku gave her and puts on the Pajama's Videl got for her and she looks at herself in the mirror and just smiles lightly. She sits down in her bed and thinks back on the whole day. 'Man that was something else.. I really did enjoy that.. and here I was thinking I was going to hate it. Maybe this place isn't so bad.. that whole Chi Chi thing was kind of rough though. Why in the hell would she care. She gave him up anyway. I even told her off. Heh maybe she'll think twice next time.' She lays in bed and looks up to the ceiling and lets a big smile come out with a slight giggle.

*Goku's POV*

Goku touches back down in the Gravity Chamber with Gohan in tow. Vegeta looks over to Goku and Gohan and shakes his head. He brings Cabba over to the other two saiyans.

Vegeta: "Kakarot, why have you brought your boy?"

Goku: "Oh well, I thought it'd be a little easier for Cabba to train and learn if he has multiple sparring partners."

Gohan: "I'll try not to get in the way Vegeta! I wanted to see more of Cabba anyway."

Vegeta: "Tch.. fine whatever." He turns to Cabba "Okay who will be the fighter you want your first sparring match to be with?"

Cabba: "Oh! I would sure like to test Goku's... Kakarot's... ummm... Sir, what do I call you?"

Goku: "You can call me whatever you like! Vegeta likes to call me Kakarot because thats my Saiayn name, but to everyone else, im just Goku!"

Cabba: "Okay awesome! I'd like to spar with Goku's son first master!"

Vegeta: "Alright Kakatot.. you and Cabba go into the chamber and i'll manage your gravity on this side."

Gohan: "Vegeta you know im taller than you, im not really a kid.. or "Tot" anymore."

Vegeta: "Don't back-sass me Gohan!"

Gohan: Cowers to Vegeta a little bit "Okay Cabba lets get inside!"

Cabba: "Y-Yes Sir!"

The two wander into the Chamber and Vegeta looks at a screen display and puts his hand on the dial. As the two begin to spar Goku watches behind Vegeta with a big grin on his face. As the two spar more and more Vegeta pushes the dial to times 2 gravity. The two fighters definitely feels the pressure but Gohan stays very firm while Cabba actually struggles against the gravity but continues the spar.

Goku: "So Geets? How is your trainee in your opinion??"

Vegeta: "Kakarot.. you know I hate that name.. tch, but he is showing promise. He is weak by our standards but he learns at an exponential rate. By a month or two he will be close to us in respective power, but not experience. That'll take more time."

Goku: blankly stares at Vegeta "Im not sure I follow all that, but it sounds good!"

Vegeta: rolling his eyes "He is doing well, so far. How is that other Saiyan you're training, how is she doing?"

Goku: "Well, she does have a bit of an attitude, she kinda reminds me of you Vegeta!"

Vegeta: "Kakarot! Stay on topic. How is her training?"

Goku: "Oh.. well we haven't gotten much done, she's with Bulma, Chi Chi, and Videl. So I haven't gotten the chance to really test her. We did fight though! She's really strong!"

Vegeta: "Well our counterparts do seem to grasp the new powers and jumps in strength with much ease. It is interesting, and irritating... wait, Chi Chi??"

Goku: "Hmm?? What about Chi Chi?"

Vegeta: "Kakarot.. you just said that your trainee is with Bulma, Videl, and Chi Chi."

Goku: "Yeah.. and?"

Vegeta: "Don't you think its a little strange to have your Ex-Wife with a female Saiyan that is under your guide?"

Goku: puts his hand on his chin and ponders Vegeta's words for a moment "Hmmm... Nope."

Vegeta: "Hmm.. Okay."

Vegeta looks back to the screen and see's that Cabba has already acclimated to the new gravity so Vegeta jumps to dial to times 10 gravity. Vegeta watches Gohan barely react to it like the gravity never changed. Cabba however struggles to get off his knees. The Gravity Chamber pushes extra strength on the people inside because of the enclosed space. Cabba slowly gets to his feet but this strain causes him to shift rapidly to Super Saiyan. Gohan's face changes with a surprised look as he watches Cabba's Super Saiyan form rapidly increase power overtime. Before the two can continue their sparring match the gravity reverts to normal. The two look around in confusion as Vegeta opens the main door and gives a slight smirk.

Vegeta: "There is much to do Cabba.. but I like what I see; However, it is time for you to see true Saiyan warriors to show you how its done."

Cabba: "Yes sir!"

Gohan: "Awe man.. it was just getting interesting, I take it you and Dad will be sparring now?"

Goku: "Yeah! Its been awhile since Vegeta and I have had a good fight!"

Gohan takes Cabba back to the control room with Vegeta and Goku taking their stances in the Chamber. Gohan pulls up the intercom and presses a button to speak.

Gohan: "Whenever you two are ready"

Cabba stares on in anticipation as Goku and Vegeta get in their respective stances and both power up. Vegeta and Goku have a sparkling light envelope them and electricity crackles around the room. A blue energy wraps around their whole and breaks away showing off Super Saiyan Blue. Gohan puts his hand on the dial and ramps it up to times 1000 gravity. Cabba's face changes to pure amazement. Goku and Vegeta bash into each-other with their hands colliding and pushing back on one another the power emanating from them. The whole chamber and building begin to rumble from just the raw power coming from the two Saiyans. The two seperate and and land on their respective walls and launch towards each-other prepping a punch and when they collide, both Saiyans land their punches on each-others chins and they power radiates throughout the building and the Chamber rumbles. The red light inside the Chamber switches off while simultaneously the conrtol room's screen shatters and puffs out a small plum of smoke and the control board powers down.

Goku: "Awwee man.. did we break it?"

Vegeta: "Seems like it. I guess Bulma has more work to do so it matches our strength."

Gohan: opening the chamber door "Well im not sure the chamber is meant for two people, especially you two."

Goku just simply chuckles while Vegeta just scowls in disapproval. Cabba walks into the chamber and just looks at Goku and Vegeta with his mouth agape. Vegeta and Goku look at him and give him a questioned look.

Cabba: "T-that.. was.. just simply something else.. I have so much to learn master! Im pleased to be under your care!"

Vegeta: "Tch, get ahold of yourself. Nobody likes a brown-noser."

The group exits the chamber right as Bluma walks in. The group just blankly stares at Bulma as Bulma looks around. She see's the Gravity chamber door have smoke slowly bellowing out and the control rooms lights off and sparks coming from the control board. She glares at Goku and Vegeta and just stomps on the floor.

Bulma: "You idiots! Do you know how much this stuff costs!? Urgghh!!! All of you get out now!"

Vegeta: "Tch.. Come on Cabba. We'll find a new place to get you trained up." The two leave the room with Cabba mouthing "Im sorry"

Gohan: "Yeeeaaah.. I should go check on Videl and make sure Pan got home safe. See you guys!" He takes off and leaves through the roof's still opened up hole

Goku: "Okie dokie i'll be heading out too! Sorry for the machine Bulma!" He starts to leave before Bulma stops him

Bulma: "Wait.. hold on Goku." She pulls Goku down from mid flight

Goku: "oh.. okay.. whats up?"

Bulma: "You should go check up on that girl of yours.. Chi Chi was a bit rough with her today, I just wanted to make sure she was okay after all of that."

Goku: "Man... okay, i'll check up on her, thank you for letting me know Bulma! I'll see you later!"

Bulma: "Okay Goku, i'll talk to you later. I have work that will keep me busy in the meantime..."

Goku waves to her goodbye and heads out back to his home. On his travel he has time to think. 'Man.. I really hope Chi Chi wasn't too hard on her. Chi Chi is one of the nicest people I know.. im not sure why she would go off on Caulifla... im sure she is okay. Im still worried though.. i'll check up on her when I get back!' Goku continues to head on home.

*Dual POV*

Goku arrives to the house and sets down just right outside the home. Right when Goku goes to go inside the house he stops for a moment. 'Okay Goku.. calm.. collected.. I know im not the best at this kind of thing, but just stay focused and you'll be fine.' Goku opens up the door and scans around in the living room for Caulifla. 'Hmm... must be in her room.' Goku walks to her room and goes to open the door, but he stops for a second and gives three knocks on the door. After a few moments of waiting he hears footsteps come up to the door and open it slightly. A little head pokes out from behind the door with Caulifla giving a inquisitive look. Goku just leans in towards here.

Goku: "Hey."

Caulifla: "Ummm... hi Goku?"

Goku: "So... how you doing?"

Caulifla: "Im okay Goku.. is everything okay?"

Goku: "Oh! Ummm yeah! I was actually fixing to ask you that."

Caulifla: "Yeah Goku, im okay."

Goku: "Okay.. good good.. im just gonna... relax in my room. Have a goodnight!"

Caulifla: "Uhhh... yeah.. you too?"

Caulifla closes the door before she gives him a strange look. Goku just drops his head when she closes the door. 'Darn it... I messed it up.. well she said she was okay, so maybe she is.. I don't know..' Goku walks away from her door but before walking into his room he goes into the living room and walks up to a shelf with a single photo on it. He picks it up and stares at a young him standing next to an old man. 'Grandpa.. what would you do? I really could use that guidance you gave me when I was a kid..' Goku hears a door shut and he turns around to see Caulifla in her pajamas that Videl had bought for her. Goku puts the photo back up on the shelf and looks back at her.

Goku: "Hey Caulifla whats up?"

Caulifla: "You've been acting weird this whole time you got back.. whats up?"

Goku: "Weird? Me? No im just... me."

Caulifla: "Yeah I get that.. but you're acting weirder than usual.. so again, whats going on?"

Goku: "Well... Bulma told me that Chi Chi gave you a hard time. So I thought i'd check up on you, ya know? Make sure you were okay."

Caulifla: "Im alright."

Goku: "Well.. I know Chi Chi can be a handful and she can be a bit overbearing.. I just hope she didn't say anything too harsh.."

Caulifla: "Im okay.."

Goku: he starts pacing in-front of her "She does put off a very intense feeling that she cats onto you if she's upset.."

Caulifla: "Goku..."

Goku: "She tends to also take things personally and when she does.. phew.. she gets real intense then."

Caulifla: "Goku..!"

Goku: "I just hope she didn't say anything that would have hurt your feelings or got to you.. she can be-"

Caulifla: she quickly stops his pacing by grabbing his shoulders and puts him in-front of her and she slides her hands to his face gently "Goku, im okay. I promise."

Goku: he stares into her eyes with a surprised look "Oh! Ummm okay.. if you're sure. Are you sure?"

Caulifla: she rubs his cheeks with her thumbs "Goku, she wasn't too much for me. In completely sure."

Goku: "Okay.. good."

Goku takes a few seconds but the rubbing on his cheeks makes him fall into a small trance as he lets his head's weight drop into her hands. Caulifla see's his tensed look drop to comfort. He opens his eyes and their eyes meet. Caulifla's face gets tomato red and she pulls her hands back to her sides and backs a way a bit. Goku pulls himself back together and he clears his throat as his face gets red as well.

Caulifla: "I-I.. I think I should go to bed, its been a long day."

Goku: "Yeah! I should as well, we'll continue training tomorrow!"

Caulifla: opens her door and steps in her room "Thank you for checking on me Goku."

Goku: opens his door up "Oh, sure thing Caulifla. Anytime."

Caulifla closes her door and Goku closes his door and sits in his bed. 'Well.. that went better than I thought it would. Im glad she is okay.' He lays in his bed, closes his eyes and nods off. Caulifla lays down in bed and covers her still red ridden face. 'I can't believe I did that.. completely embarrassing. He was cute for worrying about me though. I mean, as cute as a teacher can be caring for his student. Still cute though.' She puts her pillow over her face and lets out a light giggle. After sometime the house falls silent as both Saiyans rest.

*Caulifla's POV*

Caulifla wakes up to the sunshine coming through her window, she gets up and lets out a big yawn with her arms outstretched towards the ceiling. She gets up with her eyes still slightly closed as her mind wanders back to the events in the previous night. Caulifla's eyes shoot open as the memory of her putting her hands on his face and brushing his cheeks with her thumbs come into her mind. She has a shiver roll down her spine as her face gets bright red even getting down to her chin. She gets up and gets her clothes all set up as she opens up her door and leaves for the living room. She scans the kitchen all the way to the front door. 'Hmmm.. Goku's not out here. Maybe he's still asleep?' Caulifla walks up to his door and knocks.

Caulifla: "Hey Goku, you in there?"

Caulifla only gets silence on the opposite side of the door. She knocks a couple times more before resigning back to the living room. She goes out the front door as she scans yet again for Goku. Yet again.. no Goku. 'Goku... I swear to god, if you are training without me yet again!' Caulifla concentrates and feels for Goku's Ki and within a few seconds she catches his Ki. She jumps into the air and takes off after it. It doesn't take her too long before she touches down and see's Goku with Piccolo and Gohan. 'I knew it.. he just can't help himself! He's out here training without me.. yet again!!!' She storms up to Goku when Gohan see's here.

Gohan: "Oh hey Caulifla!"

Caulifla is stopped when Goku turns around and reveals a small girl next to him. Her eyes lock onto Caulifla and Pan's eyes lock onto Cauliflas. After a few moments she looks back up to Goku with confusion.

Caulifla: "I thought we were suppose to train today, whats going on?"

Goku: "Of course we are, I just thought of a way to train you, with a little help."

Caulifla: "Help?"

Goku: "Of course! I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for everyone of my friends. So what better way to train than with others!"

Caulifla: "Oh.. okay I guess that makes sense."

Caulifla looks down as her Tank Top gets tugged. Pan is right in-front of her giving her a beaming look of curiosity.

Pan: "Who are you? Are you my Daddies friend?"

Caulifla: Kneels down to Pan "Well yes im Caulifla, I am freinds with your Dad Goku."

Gohan: chuckles while rubbing the back of his head "Hehe, Caulifla she's actually my kid. Pan would be Goku's Grand-Daughter."

She stares at Goku with a blank stare for a seconds that causes Goku to simply chuckle. She looks back down to Pan and gives her a bright smile.

Caulifla: "So are you the one i'll be training with today?"
