The life of a star wars action figure

Introduction:

Now most of us star wars fans have been raised, of course, watching star wars as kids and waiting for the new movies to come out and all that jazz. But the most important thing about being a kid and being a HUGE fan of star wars, was collecting EVERY SINGLE action figure (3-inch, mind you) that you could lay your eyes on. Any time a new one came out, YOU NEEEEEEDED IT!

My older sister, my little brother and I had the biggest action figure collection than anyone we knew. And as kids, playing with action figures (or, as we called them, "star-wars-guys") was almost our whole LIFE! Of course, we had multiples of one toy, so each action figure, yes every single on, had a name.

This story is in honor of all the fun we had, and all the torture we put our toys through. You might say the story line was sprung from Toy story, but it WASN'T! Because we had this going before that movie ever existed.

Most happenings and situations of this story are according to us, and not to the accuracy of the books, or the movies. Please don't fret about accuracy.

And now, in this story, you will see how one little toy (or toys) can change the course of greater history.

Chapter 1: What it is to be Leia's Toy

Leia was the daughter of the old and famous Luke Skywalker. Whatever the books say, they were wrong. He eventually married an elf princess and had three children. The oldest they named Anakin, after Luke's father, and then they had twins which they named Luke and Leia. Anakin was born with more force power than imaginable, but sadly, around the age of 10, he was in an accident and lost most of his mental capability… of being sane. He was still a very sweet boy, but he always needed his mother's care, being a disabled child, and later both he and his mother mysteriously disappeared. It was said they were murdered, but no on knows. It killed Luke, his brother inside, having his once older brother and roll model turn into… well… a retard, and so he became overly protective of his twin sister, Leia.

Luke Skywalker I started a large army base called "The Black Hole" and protected and made contracts with many planets. His army was said to be the most trained, and the most feared, and so, Luke Skywalker controlled much of the universe with his fleet. When his son, Luke, was old enough, he joined his father's army. But sadly, for Leia, her father mostly didn't allow females to join his army, and of course, as her father, he certainly didn't allow her. Leia was a beautiful, strong, and silly girl. She was almost good at everything, but never really had many friends growing up at school because she was considered… dare I say it…. Weird! For her protection, her father had her raised in Hiding on a planet called earth. She stayed with foster parents, who had no idea about her being from OUTER SPACE, so they raised her like they would any child. Leia was always upset about not being able to stay with her family, so the only thing, the ONLY thing that kept her sane and happy was going home every day after school and taking out her collection of action figures from her favorite movie, "STAR WARS".

There are many things we don't know, and one of them is that every time their owner, or any other living person leaves the room, their toys come to life! It's hard for so many toys to keep tract of each other, or of their surroundings, so each group of toys has a designated "leader".

Leia was probably the only person in nearly the entire universe who knew about her toys, (probably because she was and elf, and her force powers), but in any case, her toys knew she knew as well, and she had a special friendship with them. That's why, at age 17, Leia still "plays" with her toys.

"Out you go!" Leia sang as she dumped out her bin of toys. Almost immediately, they all started running away from each other in different directions shouting things like, "freedom!", "Get me out of there!", or "Oh, finally you let us out!". She smiled and sat down as she watched them all separate into their groups and congregations. The two major groups were the Star wars toys, and the larger toys. The larger toys were made up of Lord of the Rings and the lone star Trek character, Checov, and, of course, the one ninja turtle named Donatello. Within the star wars action figures, there were many little groups.

Of course, the emperor toy, who thought he was the toy leader, reined in his corner with his two sons (the two Darth Vadors) and all of the storm troopers (from both old and new movies) who made up about 20, guarded them.

The "boys group" was all the "young men" toys. This included all of the six different Han Solos, all of the Luke Skywalkers, all of the Rebel scouts (in snow and jungle gear) and all of the Anakins. They mostly hung out together playing cards, joking around, or flirting with the girls.

The girl's group was made up of, of course, all the female action figures. Because girls are quite the minority in Star wars, there were only about 15 in the group. (Several Princess Leias, several Padmes, and every other girl you can think of.)

The "Darths" which were three darth Maul toys always leaned against the wall and watched the other toys in annoyance as they wished they were real darths. Their names were Darth Zaul, Count Midias, and Darth Dane (or nicknamed, Darth "Daze") Rem, the loner girl, who was a "Zam Wessel" toy with no arms always hung out with the darths, because she believed they were her only equals in intelligence. They were always annoyed with her, but over the years of her being a tag-along, they finally let her into their group.

There were several other small cliques, including the "creature group" where every action figure that wasn't human congregated. They were shunned, but they didn't care… The only Human that hung out with them was named Michael. He was an "Obi wan" toy in his black "training gear". He was labeled a "Creature" because he was convinced he was a zombie and walked around drooling all the time and freaking everyone out.

Last, but not least, was Ashley. He was the toy leader. (Yes, people, Ashley is a boy's name) Being a toy leader has a lot of power, but has a lot of responsibilities. Every toy leader can feel the pain of every toy in the group, and so they can know when a toy is in danger. He has the power of ordering the toys what to do. Every time he said the word, "Drop", every toy in the entire room would fall still on the ground like toys, and mostly just in time before someone came in the room. No toy has control to resist the word drop, and so Ashley had no enemies. On the other hand, every other toy had at least one enemy, rival or competitor. And in this story, you will find out just that.

You may wonder where all the toys come from! Well, for many people, when they are in a situation where they… supposedly die, the "Toy fairy" can chose to save them and turn them into a toy. And there, they have to live as toys for either a certain amount of time, or live the rest of their lives as part time toys. Some toys were just born toys, but some special ones were fortunate people who happened to get saved by the toy fairy.

"It's time for me to go to bed." Leia yawned and hopped on her bed. "But you guys have fun… Just please stay off the bed, you aren't comfortable to sleep on." She giggled to herself and then crawled inside her bed to sleep.

"Leia," Ashley jumped up on the bed and ran over to her. "We have another lost toy… I think he went under the bed."

"Well," she yawned. "I'll find him in the morning, ok? You just keep an eye on these guys."

"Ok." He groaned and painfully rubbed his neck then shouted off the top of the bed, "Darth Zaul! Will you please stop beating up Rem?"

"She likes it and you know it!" Jacob, an "Obi Wan" toy, shouted back.

"Well I don't!" Ashley shouted back then slid down the covers onto the floor. He looked around then froze as he heard footsteps approaching. "DROP!" he shouted, and the whole room fell silent with still toys. Leia's door opened and her foster mother stepped in quietly.

"Leia, honey, you need to pick up your toys before you go to bed, alright?" she sighed looking at the sleeping girl in her bed. "Ohh, you should know you are too young for toys." She shook her head, turned out the light, and shut the door.

….

Well, that's all for now, please R&R!!!!!!!
