Chapter 3 - Anakin Skywalker
Percy Jackson and Star Wars don't belong to me, they belong to Rick Riordan and Disney respectively. Enjoy!
Percy (POV)
Who am I?
I am Epizon.
Four earth years have now passed since my now mother(the Force) adopted me, five years since my unexpected betrayal, and three years since I met Anakin Skywalker.
I met Anakin the day mom sent me to Tatooine, having just completed one of my "missions", she informed me a last of his location, it was finally time, and I would find the chosen one in Tatooine, at this point I already knew that I would have to begin his training in the ways of the Force, in the balance of the Light, so that he may complete his destiny.
Upon arriving planetside I extended my senses through the Force searching for the beacon which this child, the Chosen One was supposed to be, I wasn't really looking for anyone, in particular, I actually had no information from my mother, not his age, features or species, apart from the fact that the Chosen One is a male, lives on Tatooine, and that I would know when I found him, other than that nothing.
'Clearly, it's a test.'
Snapping out of my inner monologue, I noticed that I was now walking down the sandy road feeling the warm breeze caused by the speeders flowing past me every other moment.
Taking my helmet off I quickly took heed of the area around me, and amidst my examination, I came face to face with the angering sight, an ugly-looking, brown Dug hitting a young boy of around five with Sandy blond hair, calming myself. I took a moment to analyze the situation.
After all, Buir would kill me for not putting in action all the teachings she drilled into me.
Amidst my observation I noticed the Dug was drawing an old a-20 fusion blaster and pointing it at the child, 'screw analyzation this guy is gonna kill the kid!'
I managed to step between both of them before the kid was a puddle on the floor.
Noticing me the Dug looked up at me in anger and hate written across his features, in turn, I glared down at him, being relatively closer to him I now realized that this Dug seriously reminds me of Gabe.
The Dug's anger seemed to dissipate little by little upon catching sight of my eyes which I was sure were swirling with anger, and the AB-75 bo-rifle strapped to my back, which peaked just over my shoulder making it clearly visible.
Through the Force I could feel his anger flare down, if only a bit, just before asking me in huttese angrily, "Ah'chu apenkee?"
I'll admit in hindsight I never regretted my answer until Buir found out, but the actions following my answer made up for it one thousand times over.
"Dobrah Epizon."
Everyone around who had heard my answer and stopped what they were doing and stared in fear in recognition, even the Dug seemed to recognize the name and my helmet which was tucked by my side.
He instantly paled and scurried away muttering angrily in huttese, something about kids, races, and scary men from that planet, as soon as I was sure he was gone, I turned and crouched to look at the small child, already a bruise was forming over his left eye, he looked up at me with big curious blue eyes.
instantly I felt the strong calling of the Force around him, the force bent around him in an almost protective fashion, he's the one I've been looking for, I'm sure of it.
-LINE-BREAK-
"Hey hold up at least tell me your name," I called out to him, as he dragged me through the crowds towards where his mom was, he had been dragging through the crowd of slowly dwindling bounty hunters, droids, slaves, and shoppers who had parted at my sight as the tiny five-year-old dragged me behind him.
"Oh I'm Anakin but everyone calls me Ani!" the now identifiedAnakin Skywalker called back.
"Ok and where exactly are you dragging me to?!" I asked dodging a Bantha's behind just in time as he dragged me towards Force knows where
"To my mom's house, she's gonna want to meet you!"
'I'm beginning to doubt this kid has any idea what stranger danger is...'
Third Person(POV)
On the way to his house, Anakin proceeded to pester Percy with questions, ranging from where he was from since it was his first time seeing Percy in Mos Espa, to how he got his 'cool gun.'
Percy answered the child's questions with honesty, relaying how he was from a planet far far away, Anakin looking satisfied proceeded to bombard the teenager with more questions from; was he really a bounty hunter, and if it was true that Percy was a Mando, to what was his real name, that question in particular which Percy decided to answer, telling Ani the truth as he had been doing so, his name was Perseus Wren but Anakin could call him Percy, and yes I was adopted by Clan Wren so, All he did was laugh saying it was a funny name.
To say the least, Percy was relieved when they arrived at the child's home, and at last got to meet his mother, a little more and he would have had a cerebral meltdown!
Shimi Skywalker, the mother was a nice woman, at first she had appeared wary of Percy, that was until Anakin told her how he'd had saved him, looking at the young man before her, Shimi gratefully asked the not so young hero to stay for dinner.
Percy accepted embarrassed by the rumbling of his stomach at the sound of food, that night during dinner Percy told them tales of his adventures, Percy told them that he was here on a much-needed vacation, opting to not inform Anakin was that he was there to protect, teach, and to guide him in the ways of the Force, but he didn't restrict himself with the mother as he did with the child, after all this is his mother, much later amidst the privateness of the night when she put him to sleep, Percy informed Shimi of her Son's destiny.
Our hero decided with the help of the mother that he wouldn't inform Ani till later when he was a bit older about it all, would tell him everything, but for now, this will do, for now, I will let him enjoy his childhood and training.
So yeah that's the beginning I will be adding more to this story later on but for now, this is it. See ya...
