A/N I always wondered what was behind those little beeps that R2 always did...I'm guessing the most awesomest story ever!!! He watched 2 generations of Skywalker's and other Jedi...so he has to have an interesting story don't you think? Well here it is...
I hate to agree with C3P0, but...sometimes I don't understand humans. They don't seem to realize how much I know. I know that's being over confidant. but it's true...I've watched this story grow for a long time. Even longer then most think.
I was there on Tatooine when Shimi Skywalker gave birth to the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker. I was only a few weeks old, I had just been made in fact and soon would be sent to The Republic.
After that...about nine years later I returned to Tattoine again to find Anakin, nine years old, and that some Jedi had taken interest in his talents...I also had the unfortunate luck to meet, what would become one of my dear friends(and also a pain in the back side) C3P0, a protocol droid made by Anakin which no one but Anakin, and I know thanks to the fact C3P0's memory was erased.
The first thing I said to him was Did you know you're naked?! His answer seemed just as confused," What do you mean I'm naked?!", after that we were most definitely good friends.
I left with Anakin and the Jedi to go to Naboo, where Anakin and I saved the day by accidentally blowing up the ship commanding the evil Trade Confederation's droid's.
I din't see C3P0 until many years after that. I stayed with Master Anakin as he trained as a Jedi...and I watched his growing relationship with his own master, Master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Anakin and Obi-Wan were assigned to protect a certain senator, Senator Amidala(Padme). I followed Anakin when he and Padme returned to Naboo, and watched as they fell in love. Then disaster struck. Anakin began having dreams about his mother dying. So with me, and Padme we left for that horrible planet of Tatooine(again.)
I met C3P0 for the second time, this time he was no longer nude(thank the maker) he was covered in a rusted covering. After Master Anakin buried his mother we including(the pain) C3P0 left which ended us up in another crazy adventure where Anakin and Padme anded up married, Anakin lost his arm, C3P0's head fot attached to a clone droid's body, and his head to a clone droid's body(Ha ha, it was actually quite funny), and like always(even though no one realizes it) I had to save us all(Ha!)
And of course a few years later I had to watch as Anakin killed Padme, and as the Emperor took over. By then Anakin had become the dreaded Darth Vader and Captain Antilles had erased C3P0's memory. It was many years later when duty called(yet again) and Princess Leia(Darth Vader's daughter which I knew by the way) gave me the plans to the Death Star, with C3P0 I traveled(AGAIN!) to Tatooine where I met Luke Skywalker(Darth Vader's son which I knew Ha!)
I watched as Princess Leia met her brother, and Igot to meet Chewie the Wookie and Han Solo. Then Obi-Wan was killed(yet another disaster) and some how I and Luke destroyed the dreaded Death Star.
A year or so later I watched Han and Leia fall in a type of love, and almost lost Luke to an evil snow monster. Then I re-met Master Yoda, and watched as Luke confronted his father and learned of his true heritage.
And of course returned to Tatooine(AGAIN!!) to save Han Solo. In the end...I helped Luke to destroy the Empire. If you ask the me though...after all I've been threw that was just an everyday thing for me.
A/N I personally think R2 the's real hero don't you? He's just so AWESOME! Please review:)
