Star Wars: Anakin SI Prologue

Prologue

So, how did it start? Well, it started with me waking up one morning realising that, I was not in my bed, it was ridiculously hot, and I was in the body of a child.

At first, I was confused, I mean, I was not in my body yet same time I felt that I was in my body! It didn't make any freaking sense!

Not only that but, I had this weird feeling in my body, like I could do things!

Like there was more to it, it didn't make sense! Yet, it was there in the back of my mind!

Before I could voice my confusion, I was greeted by a woman in rags coming into this room, funny enough the doors were not regular doors. it looked like from a sci-fi flick as they opened by sliding into the wall, like in Star Wars!

The moment I mentioned Star Wars, I instantly noticed the similarities with Phantom Menace, the woman was like… Anakin's mother!?

"Ani are you okay?"

The moment I heard that I released a scream which would make even most girliest girls jealous…

~~~

Normally, it would take several days to weeks for someone to get over the fact that someone's identity was forced onto him or her.

Not me, and the answer should be obvious, as I was in the body of Anakin Skywalker, the supposed Chosen One and Darth Vader…

Well, the last one is questionable as, I was an adult grown-up before ending up in Anakin's body, and I don't have original Anakin's traits as well.

And, most of all, I know who is the big bad guy in all of this…

Most importantly I will have to throw canon through the window, I have no interest in joining Jedi, never was a big fan of that group.

While I am leaning towards the Sith, the period for me to join them is the wrong one, the rule of two is annoying at best for me.

That leaves with the idea of going my way…

'Carving out an Empire in Outer Rim? Sound like a plan, but first I need to deal with that annoying blue bug…'

Yes, that's the reason why my short identity crisis was over before it can even begin, for the single reason that Anakin IS a slave.

'Now, I know why Anakin hates the sand that much, the scalding heat of two suns doesn't lessen that effect.'

But before that, I still need to get over the fact that I am in a world where all sorts of alien critters exist…

Not many people mention the fact that some of these creatures look gross, with tentacles and stuff.

~~~

As I remembered correctly the blue bug's junk shop was not far from where I live, such a thing should be obvious by now.

I do not wish to see him or interact with him, but getting freedom is paramount before Qui-Gon Jinn arrives, otherwise he would probably guilt trip me…

Closing my eyes for a second, I tried to use the Force, being Earthling with a lot of exposure to the internet, I tried multiple things which I remembered reading Star Wars books, and fanfics, even watching TV series and the movies multiple times.

To me fascination… it was not too hard to access it…

It was not difficult, as the Force just begged to be used in any way possible!

After the short test, I finally decided to stop stalling and went over to the blue bug's junk store.

"You finally here kid! Start working!" The blue bug said from his side of the store.

I looked at the gross thing some distance away, my body went automatic towards all the junk in the store, I subconsciously knew what each piece was, not only that but I know how to interact with that gross thing as well, even if I don't possess much of memories, since I barely know anything how Anakin behaved BEFORE I took over, it's like I am guided by someone or... something.

'Hmm, I see, in that case…' And from then on I simply allowed myself to be guided by the force.

This continued for the next several days, and my understanding of how the force worked grew each day, almost by the minute, unlike the Jedi or the Sith I was always active with the force, more fully believing in the force.

Such actions had obvious consequences, like my sensitivity over the force increased exponentially, the same time my emotions became more potent, this lead me to understand why, Jedi don't want to use emotions at all, but such a thing is utterly foolish as there are positive emotions as well, which don't lead to Dark Side, I mean how can happiness lead to the dark side? One will kill someone with a smile?

This is where I started experimenting in my free time, with the amount of medi-clorians I possess the force, literally comes naturally to me by this point.

Telekinesis, mind-reading… uhh mind reading is annoying, as I started picking up what people think as well, that ability needed a lot of work, but force was helping in all that very splendidly…

Eventually, after two months of slavery labour, I had enough…

~~~

The Toydarian named Watto was in a quite a happy mood, not only his slave was working perfectly the past few days, but he won several times in gambling! He regained his lost money from previous outings.

As he was happily humming to himself he felt something coiling around his neck and then yanked him from the chair as he flew into a wall with supernatural force.

"W-What is h-happening" Watto grabbed his neck but there was nothing there to begging with!

Slowly his neck got tightened further and further…

*Chocking Sound*

As he was about to lose consciousness the checking stopped and he collapsed on the ground.

Finally, he was able to breathe properly!

Seconds later he looked up from the ground and saw Anakin standing there, he instantly realised that it was the brats doing! Who else would do such a thing!

'This! ungrateful curl!'

Before he opened his mouth again the boy lifted his hand and a golden torrent of lightning escaped from his fingers right into shell shocked Watto.

What was next was screams of electrocuted Toydarian, who was rolling on the ground, unlike Sith lightning, Anakin's force Judgement, does not give permanent damage, no it's just electricity which makes one experience pain.

A few seconds later Anakin stopped his lightning and waited for Watto to regain his bearings.

"Now, Watto, hand over the junkyard and the controls for the chips." The boy spoke with such a voice that it sent shivers through his toydarian spine.

Such voice should not belong to a boy that age!

"Y-You! YOU THIN-" Once again the Toydarian neck started to get choked.

"I. Don't. Care what you think, I don't have time to listen to your moaning or complaints, now hand over the junkyard and the control and you might continue your pitiful existence in this galaxy." Once again Anakin released the Force Judgment on the blue Toydarian.

~~~

The blue avian-like alien soon enough caved in, pain is a good motivator.

"O-Okay! I will hand it over to you! Just stop with the lightning!" Shaking and twitching Watto pulled out the control pad, the alien was about to grin as his finger was about to press THE button, but at that very moment, his whole body just froze.

"You do realise that I can read your mind, do you? I thought you know about Force, I guess I gave too much credit to cretin like you." The control pad flew out of Watto's hands and right into the hands of Anakin, who pressed the other buttons instead of the big one.

Seconds later he became a 'free' person, Watto who was in a frozen state, was horrified or at least tried to look as his eyes had the look of horror but his mouth was in a frozen state.

"And now for the junkyard, Watto. Or you wish to experience another Lightning therapy?" Anakin asked with a raised eyebrow.

Anakin released Watto from the frozen state before asking him.

What he got in return was extremely afraid Toydarian who almost pissed his pants, he has heard the legends of Jedi and what they can do, but this was utterly insane! In front of him was a nothing but a boy yet he can do all these crazy things already!

"Y-You can have it! I don't care!" Watto quickly pulled out the Datapad and with almost supernatural haste pressed several buttons on it, then he quickly handed it over to Anakin.

"H-Here! it's yours!" The Toydarian fearfully shoved the datapad into the boy's hands.

He was about to leave after handing over but he once again froze in the air.

"Before you go…"

Anakin walked over to him and put his hand on the Toydarian head.

"Your ways have to change…"

That moment Watto sensed invasion into his head, like a thousand needles were poking his brain at the same time.

No one noticed this moment, but Anakin was using the Dark side and Light side at the same time…

When was the last time such a thing happened? How many thousand years have passed when Light and Dark were used hand in hand!?

For the first time in forever, the gap between Light and Darkness was breached and The Force was ecstatic.

Such a small thing was sensed throughout the Galaxy, yet no one could pinpoint the exact location where this happened.

The Jedi were confused by this, and the Sith? They frowned and scratched the back of their heads in confusion.

Only the 'Father' had a knowing smile on his face half away through the Galaxy.

~~~

After giving a new goal to Watto, I returned to my house right next to the Scrapyard.

"Mom, I am back," I said with a smile.

"Ani? Why are you back so early?" Shmi Skywalker asked with a confused look on her face.

I showed her the remote and pressed a few buttons on it, and the woman felt how the chip stopped working on the back of her neck.

"T-This is…" Shmi could barely speak in the disbelief.

"Yes, now we are free, and with this…" I showed the property rights of the junkyard.

"We can build our future however we wish." A smirk crept to my lips as I said that.

"B-But, h-how? What about Watto?" The woman was still in disbelief.

I could only roll my eyes at her.

"He found a new calling mom, he is returning to Toydaria," I said with a shrug and Shmi raised her eyebrow at me, she obviously, don't believe me.

Yet, what I said is a half-truth, Sidious is not the only one who can do that.

"Ani, you are not saying something do you?" She asked with concern.

"Maybe, he was a little bit fearful of me when I showed that I can wield force the same way the Jedi do."

I made the datapad float for a moment showing that I mean businesses.

Shmi was once again shell-shocked seeing that, but then she had a knowing look, it seems Anakin showed force sensitivity before.

"I had an outburst and he just was terrified of me, seeing an opportunity to escape slavery I did, and now we are free!

Anyway, mother, I am going to focus on my work now, we need some droids to help with our new Junkyard." I showed her something I had in my other hand.

Computers are so backwards and primitive in this galaxy far far away that it makes me want to cry from despair, but same time it's an opportunity, and opportunity for something big…

I don't know why but Anakin is a genius, since he was 'created' by the force, he was extremely talented in anything he does.

The Canon version of him was used by Jedi and later on by the Sith, even with all the limitations posed by them, he was able to excel in many things, he even 'subdued' the 'brother' and the 'sister' who can be considered Gods by Star Wars standards!

Now imagine Anakin who is not constrained by those two orders!
