Glow-Cop and the Joker. (Gherron)

[Dōkeshi]

The disturbance in the Force bothered Kobayashi. It was what had led him away from his refuge in the wastes of Gale, to this jungle playground of Ruuri. Prowling the forest as his black-spotted feline form, he reflected on his lonely state of existence. Why had he waited here, in this jungle, for a year?

Who was here for him?

In searching for new and exotic places to find knowledge, Gherron had found himself deep in the jungles of Ruuri. Not only was it an amazing sight, but it seemed to him that the deeper he went, the more in tune with the force he became. Closing his eyes, he felt it surge within him for a few seconds. The perfect place to meditate for a while. Sitting down in the middle of a clearing, he closed his eyes and delved on the force.

The sudden increase in the strength of the Force made Kobayashi's leopard tail twitch. Camouflaged almost invisibly against the plant life around him, he watched silently, unmoving, as the man began to meditate. This man was no master, for sure. He didn't carry the same presence as he had. Nor the same air of power... But this one could have been the disturbance he was sensing.

The White Dōkeshi would not be sensed. He would never be sensed. He was simply the Dark Side contradicting itself. An emotionless monster, made to kill.

As Gherron sat down to meditate, he did was he often did and mentally explored the planet. Through the force, he saw the trees, the rain, and every individual particle of soil. A monsoon was taking place elsewhere in the jungle. When he skimmed over himself, however, something caught his attention. Something stark white against the green background. A leopard? And a Snow White one at that. What was it doing in such a place as where he was? Opening his eyes, he visually searched for the creature, and eventually found it hanging over him, watching. Not getting up, he cocked his head in curiosity. "Well hello there."

Kobayashi watched the man look straight at him, probably seeing a patch of white against the green of the forest. "Hello there," was a totally strange reaction to a snow leopard half the size of a tank. But, the White Dōkeshi didn't comment on it. He never did. He simply stepped out of the foliage, to show his full size, and sat down like a gigantic house cat looking out a window. The long, black, claws of his left hand clacked against the hard-packed ground, tearing tiny ruts in the roots of the trees he was walking over.

Gherron felt no threat from the cat as he pawed his way over, so he wound up just watching him walk over, a steady gaze on his face. It was quite magnificent, seeing such a species in front of him where one might least expect. "And what might a big guy like you be doing in a jungle like this? I thought your kind was better suited for the snow." He figured the animal was incapable of talking, but it humored him to talk anyway.

The mask-like pattern on Kobayashi's furry face shifted into... A mask. And then the rest of him shifted, into the tall man that he normally was. His furry white clothing swished around him with an unnatural wind. His tail, concealed under his clothes, was rocking back and forth along with them. The only part of him that was visibly not white was his hand. His long, clawed, hand. The hand he was using to pick at a bug that had gotten stuck in his teeth.

"Nothing is of my kind, Jedi."

Gherron had to admit, he was rather taken aback as the large cat morphed into a man. "Gotta say, that's a trick I haven't seen before. Nice arm." He glanced at the claw, then examined the rest of the figure that now stood before him. "I'm Gherron. How'd you guess I was a Jedi?"

"You radiate Light. Just like the ones whose hearts I crushed."

This was said with an air of total nonchalant coldness. Any sense of the Force around Kobayashi, light or dark, would be slightly disturbed by the calm darkness of the White Dōkeshi and the shadow he cast across it. His claw, the most. A blight on the Force, as the black was a blight on the otherwise white color of everything he showed.

"I'm the Dōkeshi. The White Jester. A light in the Darkside, and a blight on the Light."

[Gherron Dragovalor]

"Interesting. Well, you're not a Sith, I can tell that." Getting up, he looked the man up and down. "Why are you here?"

[member="Dōkeshi"]

 

[Dōkeshi]

Kobayashi raised an eyebrow under his mask, still not showing no emotion, as ever. His clawed hand waved through the air, clenching as if to grab the molecules around them. Or maybe trying to grasp the Force.

"I sensed a disturbance. It led me here, and it seems to have led you here."

[Gherron Dragovalor]

Gherron couldn't help but to smile at that. "I wouldn't call it a disturbance, more like a flux in the force. It's calming for me, so i've been meditating here for a while. I like to do it often, to see what the force has in store for me. It's not a disturbance, in any form of the word."
