Ok this not to be taken too seriously. Yes there are probably a few grammer mistakes. I'm learning disabilty, so I don't get the grammer. I do send the parts through the Wordperfect's grammer check.

So enjoy this little story. It's about couple parts long. I'm working on this between chapters of my Edge of Blackness story.

Enjoy!

Part One

Artoo rolled through the Temple's hallways, now and then, ducking into a dark corner. Everybody knew who he was, so to be seen out at this time without Anakin. Well, he would be stopped and questioned. Normal he would be in the nursery with Luke and Leila. But not tonight, enough is enough with those two. He was astromech droid, not a glorified nightlight for those brats.

Then Artoo rolled up to the outside door and carefully punched in the passcode. The lock clicked open and he rolled out.

"I'm free! I'm free. Goodbye Ani-boy, go find yourself another slave droid. No more, of those twins and all their antics, an astromech doesn't wear hats or wraps."he thought, "Now where to go." Artoo thought for a minute and then headed for a quiet spot.

As Artoo rolled along, he thought about the last couple years. Everything was fine until those wailers came. Every day, for the most part was spent in three places Anakin's starfighter, Padme's apartment or at the hanger. Which is a great place to hang out. He just loves to start fights with the other astromech droids there. Heck, he made the fighters droids look like a bunch of sissies. Ah those were the days. Worth the kicks that Anakin occasionally gave him. When he heard about the most recent fights.

"Artoo. How many times have I ordered you, not tell you, but order? Not to start fights."Anakin would say. Giving Artoo good kick "Spare me your whistling and chirping. You ask for it."

"Ah those were the days."Artoo said again. Then started to whistle "Oh then that day, my greatest achievement for the Jedi Order. I was just sneaking out and so what if I set Temple's alarm systems. That place is so boring ever since Anakin took over."

Then he noticed a security patrol."Yikes! I'm outta here."

"Hey droid, come over here now."One the guards called out.

"Catch me, you dumb ultnnico." Artoo whistled and beeped and with quick work. Open a door to a building and hide.

"Suckers"

"Daddy, Daddy."Leila, shaking her father up.

"Leila. What's wrong?" Anakin, waking up and rubbing his face.

"Daddy, he's gone, he's gone." Luke running into the room and jumping onto the bed.

"Who's gone?" Padme finally getting up.

"Artoo. Artoo" Luke and Leila at the same time.

"Again! That does it! I'm going overhaul that craze droid. Watch out." Anakin getting up. "If I didn't need him for tomorrow morning. I would lock him out the apartment for the night. But no, I need him. So I'll go find him."

"Come children, back to bed."Padme taking their hands.

"Put C-3PO in their room for rest of the night. He's pretty good at chasing the spooks away." Anakin called out as he got dressed.

"Anakin. Artoo shut down C-3P0."Padme answered back as she turned him back on.

"I'm going kill that droid!"

So when he felt safe, Artoo open the door and rolled back out into the Coruscant's night.

Nobody really paid much to him. There were always droids rolling and hovering along the streets. Yet, there was always somebody looking for a well equipped. Tonight he and his friends spotted Artoo.

"Well, look at this scan. That droid is pack." Imetay said, showing the scan to Ovetsen.

"Yes. Too bad for the owner. He or she or it, won't be getting this one back. Come, lets get it" he said.

Artoo whistled another tune, ignoring the occasional "shut up." He didn't care, so paid no attention to the group of men trailing him.

"What! How in the hell he did do that?" Anakin, slamming his fist down on the console. Causing the other Jedis in the room, to get nervous."I use the Force to do the code. That droid is so much trouble. I have no choice but to do a memory wipe on that blasted droid." Then Anakin grabbed his cloak and headed for the outside door.
