"I had a dream I came back here and freed all of the slaves"
It doesn't happen overnight.
No.
It happens in the day, in the light. A dark masked man with heavy breath that was killing the slave owners and freeing the slaves. No one - not even the Hutts, who were now dead- could stop the droid looking man.
That doesn't surprise Anakin though. Anakin had seen the stranger's blade that coated the sands with different colors of blood. A red lightsaber. The man was a Jedi and he had come to free them. (Just like in Anakin's dream except in Anakin's dream the man, the Jedi, who came to Tatooine to free the slaves was his older self.) And no one could stop him because it was impossible to kill the Jedi.
Soon after all the slavers are dead Darth Vader offers the Lars family along with Anakin's mom and Anakin himself to leave Tatooine behind and come with him to Naboo (Anakin had been once told stories by smugglers about the planet of Naboo; the planet is green instead of the irritating sand that Tatooine is filled with, there's large amounts of water on the planet, there's no slaves there, and the women there are as beautiful as the angels the deep space pilots had told Anakin about). They all take him up on the offer and Anakin brings a still unfinished C3PO with them.
(They make a pit stop at Shili before they go to Naboo. They ended up rescuing a female Togruta from a slaver there. Her name is Ahsoka and Anakin gets more along with her than Anakin did with his old friends back on Tatooine. She becomes the little sister he never had and Vader becomes the older brother Anakin never had. They (Ahsoka, Vader, and him) finish building C3PO on their journey.)
(When they, all of them, arrive at Naboo Anakin learns that the smugglers were right. The Queen of Naboo is as beautiful as the angels on the Moons of Iego. One day Anakin is going to marry her and Ahsoka will be a bridesmaid. )
(When two Jedi come to rescue Padme they get the surprise of their lives to find a Sith in process of saving the Queen of Naboo. When the older Jedi, Qui-Gon, tells Padme Vader is Sith there for evil Vader retorts that he thought only the Sith deals in absolutes. Not even the padawan, Obi-Wan who for some reason feels familiar to Anakin, has a retort to that.)
(Senator Palpatine dies in accident soon after and no one besides Darth Vader knows that the universe is better for the 'unfortunate accident.')
