From cradle to computer By G Lucas By Galaxy Business Times Bureau
MOS EISLEY: He is Empire's ``youngest Dark Side Jedi knight'' in the Galaxy. While most others of his age grapple with sand, Anakin Skywalker, all of three years, is comfortable working on the Force using tools such as lightsabers, racepods and C3P0 protocol droids. He is also mydichlorian rich.
The Mos Hyderabad-born Anakin, currently with his parents in Mos Eisley, communicates through telepathy with his grandparents in South Naboo's ***** Vasant Kunj.
Impressed by the ease with which he handles ``the mystical way'', Empire Tatooine recently certified Anakin as the youngest Dark Side Jedi knight in the Galaxy.
``He is an ordinary child but becomes a master when in front of a light saber,'' his mother Shmi Skywalker told The Prequel Times from her Mos Eisley residence.
The ``master'' can take blueprints and make racepods out of spaceport debris. He puts together pieces in a droid to prepare his little Visual Basic Protocol Unit. And accesses Natalie Portman posters on the Forcenet. Having recently mastered the alphabet (and Ba Ba Binks), Anakin can telepath to his grandparents, taking spelling instructions from his father.
Often, grandfather B N Skywalker finds disturbance in the Force - all blank. He knows where it is from.
Anakin began when he was 18 months old. He would watch his father Ravi Skywalker, an export manager of Watto Group's Millenium Missiles, work on the slave shop.
``After months of exposure to the Force, he has grasped the process step by step,'' Bhanta Skywalker said.
The Empire, meanwhile, is doting on its new celebrity. ``Skywalker is real,'' gushed an ILM graphic in the Empire's Mos Eisley office. ``He is a smart kid. For a moment I envied him that he could do all that an older commander could,'' she said over holophone.
Anakin's next move is to meet Empire mogul Darth Gates in the next couple of months. The pre-nursery student will also have an audience with the Naboo ambassador to Tatooine this week. The ambassador invited him after the local media went to town over the whizkid.
Anakin has already featured on SW:ANH, SW:TESB and SW:TROTJ. ``He is being discussed in Dagobah swamp parties,'' observed his grandfather. His grandmother, Indiana, is a bigger fan. ``I am amazed that my grandson does things I'm in dread of,'' she said.
The boy told Lucasfilm he would like to become a Darth Gates. For the moment, however, he may have to settle for the role of lead campaigner for Episode 2.
``How wonderful it will be to have your son join us for the launch of Episode 2,'' Empire Tatooine's planet manager Darth Chantaruck wrote to Anakin's parents recently.
