THIS DIDN'T GO TO PLAN||Open, mishap?

The box kept Vader unaware of the boy sneaking out- besides, he was having a weird dream involving red jellyfish. When the morning came, Vader pulled down his mask, and noticed the cub missing. He figured that the boy had gotten up before him, but Vader normally woke at dawn.

Something wasn't right.

He moved outside, calling out, "Pluto?" And investigating, searching for the child's weak Force signature. Pluto's was normally easy to pick out- as long as it wasn't being overlapped by a stronger signature, like Luke or Almir. Otherwise, Vader normally could find him by scanning for the emotions of utter disappointment and mental fatigue.

And now it was.... muddled. Cloudy. "Pluto?"

_{Poppykit did not understand how powers worked or why they where even a thing, but she especially wondered why exactly anyone would want to shapeshift all the time? But as long as she did not have to deal that nonsense herself, she could give less of a crap if anyone else did it. She heard Vader calling out for his son and decided to come over to investigate what was going on, being the nosy kid she was. That's when she heard and saw munchkin Pluto talking with his father. She quickly stepped back, giving a huge amount of space between herself and the family. Vader had that lion superiority thing going on, so Poppykit could only imagine how furious he'd be once he realized what happened. Vader is a volcano ready to erupt at any minute right now. She should have turned around and left then and there but she was intrigued. It was like watching a massive car wreck too horrible to look away from out of curiousity.}

On closer inspection, it was indeed Pluto - his characteristic heart mark on his nose had come along in this form, too. She was confused however - first of all, how on earth had he managed to change his form, and not notice? Or if he had noticed, and second of all, wasn't he upset with his short height as it was? This body of his was now smaller than even the average domestic cat. Had her brother had a change of heart all of a sudden? That didn't sound right. "How did you..? Why..?" she attempted to voice her concerns, but trailed off, astounded by the strange situation.

For a long, uncomfortable moment, Vader did not say a word. Images of a she-cat are flashing in his mind, his hands are slowly clenching- "You are not my wife. You are not a lion. And you are my enemy, understand?" He figures, Pluto gained the shapeshifting power from his mother. Vader himself was unable to do that- he could only transfer bodies.

Finally, he settles on his four legs, knuckles buried in the earth. "...I do not believe you." He finally says, denying what's in front of his face, and with an edge of strain in his tone. "My son is a lion." He turns away, his back to the group, to his wife, to his children.
"Because any child of mine knows shapeshifting is a power reserved for the cowardly, and weak- who believe their true form will never cut it." It was too early to deal with this, and Vader's patience was warily thin. He hated shapeshifting- and now his children bore the power? Disgraceful.

_{It was interesting to see the dynamic of Vader and Pluto's mother. Poppykit had never met Padme before, but she seemed awful nice. How did someone so sweet and motherly end up with a guy like him? The thought made the child grimace, figuring the family was even more dysfunctional then she previously imagined. She supposed it was one plus of not having a family. One very small plus, that is. It still sucked seeing other kids with moms and dads when she had none anymore. Poppykit did not care about powers, but she hated that they were treating domestics as something disgraceful. Especially since she was one herself. It caused her lip to curl slightly, watching the scene unfold in silent disgust but too curious to look away for the time being. Shit was getting real, real fast.}

The lion stops, standing still, his back still faced towards Pluto. For a while, the only noise he makes is the hollow, slow breathing. He feels a weight on his shoulders, and the Emperor's voice in his ears- "A sith is not forgiving, Lord Vader. A Sith is not kind." He said nothing, for a long moment. "Every time I go on the battlefield, I see cats and dog turn into dragons or monsters and bigger versions of themselves. I see a Frankenstein creature like Dystopia, a creature with mixed parts- a lioness with a mane, and I feel second-hand shame and disgust." He says, his head tilting slightly upward. "Creatures that use shapeshifting regularly, to cheat at death and responsibilities, to become something they are not, to reach an illusion of a better self... Are cowards. And creatures that feel they must become a dragon or a rhino to gain the advantage, are unworthy of victory. They are hiding their weakness and poor skills behind a dragon."

"You did not need to change yourself, Pluto. You have to accept what you were made as. You must overcome the flaws, not cover them up and walk around it." Vader never turned his back. As if the boy was unworthy of his gaze.

[center]- - - - -[fancypost=bgcolor=; border:0; width:450px; text-align:justify; font-size:10px; line-height:1.5]The child's head hung lower and lower by the second. She thought they'd been tightly knit - was this all it took to tear them apart? Were their relationships that delicate? Yet as the girl was overwhelmed by cold fear and shock, there was a fire building in her chest, and as soon as the heat reached her head she snapped. "Stop it! Just stop!" Alice screamed, feeling every muscle in her body tensing. She froze, a brief melancholy causing her eyes to well up, but blinked back tears fiercely. Not now. "He didn't mean to! Pluto is not a coward!" she continued, tail lashing. She wasn't like this. She wasn't used to this; dealing with these emotions. Dealing with emotions in general. As fragile as their family seemed to be, her emotional state was glass on a tightrope. The slightest push and she would crack - it was miraculous this hadn't occurred before. At the moment, it seemed her anger was towards Vader - much like everyone else's. Laying the blame on someone else was relieving; though her fear and fire was consuming common sense, and she couldn't stop. "He was trying to make you proud! You've just made everything worse!" The young lioness took a breath that seemed to cool her mind, and panicked. Now she was in for it. The girl glanced at her mother desperately, hostility vanished, and darted after her brother. She had to fix this. Pluto first, and then she'd undo her own words.
