Episode 1:
Anakin Skywalker lives with his mother on Tatooine. His birth was a miracle of the Force (there was never a father, his mother just became pregnant with him one day). Anakin and his mother are slaves. Quigon and Obiwan (two jedi that become stranded on Tatooine in search for ship parts) manage to bet Anakin out of slavery if he can win a race. After he wins, he comes along with them to Naboo.
The people of Naboo have been blockaded by the Trade Federation and have been isolated from the rest of the galaxy. A revolt against the Federation occurs and the battle escalates. Anakin hides in a parked Star Fighter but accidentally switches it into autopilot and is launched into space with the rest of the Naboo pilots. One thing leads to another an Anakin manages to innocently destroy a Trade Federation control ship that is remotely operating the robotic ground forces on the planet. The battle is over and Anakin is a hero.
Meanwhile, a deadly lightsaber battle is happening with Quigon and Obiwan against a Sith warrior, Darth Maul (the red/black guy with horns and the double bladed saber). Quigon is killed before Obiwan can finish off Maul and avenge him. Quigon's dying wish was that Obiwan instruct Anakin to become a Jedi because he believes he is 'the chosen one who will bring balance to the force.'
With the battle over, Naboo is finally free from the tyranny of the Trade Federation and Obiwan gains Anakin as a padawon (disciple).
Episode 2:
Many years have past since Episode 1 and Anakin has become a skilled force user. However, he finds himself conflicting with emotions he can't handle. Fear, lust for power, love, etc. Anakin is tasked with body guarding Padmé Naberrie, a girl Anakin meet when he joined with Obiwan and Quigon in Episode 1 (who was Queen of Naboo at the time.) Padmé is now a senator in the Galactic Republic and it's believed that there has been a threat on her life. After going off to hide with her, he begins to develop feelings for her even though he is not allowed to love as a Jedi. He suddenly has nightmares about his mother and rushes off to see her back on Tatooine. He finders her, captured, and at the brink of death. She dies in his arms and becomes so consumed by rage he slaughters the tribe of sandpeople that captured her.
Meanwile, Obiwan is investigating a bounty hunter that he ran into and stumbles upon the planet Kamino. On Kamino, he learns of a large army of clones that have been commissioned, in secret, for the Republic. (An army for the good guys to fight along side the Jedi in a time of war.)Ironically, the bounty hunter Obiwan was chasing, Jango Fett, was the original genetic donator for the army (the army is made up of clones of Jango Fett). Jango Fett escapes Obiwan but Obiwan follows him to the planet Geonosis were he is captured.
Anakin and Padmé learn of his capture and attempt to go to his rescue. They end up being captured themselves. Now Obiwan, Anakin and Padmé are scheduled to be executed in a large arena. However, just when it looks like they are about to be killed a large army of Jedi appear in the crowd and fight attempt to fight off the overwhelming number of battle droids that are closing in. Jedi after jedi fall and in time, they are surrounded with countless enemy droids. Just as the order to execute the surviving Jedi is about to be given, the sky turns black and suddenly hundreds of Republic dropships come out of nowhere and thousands of clone troops drop in and war breaks out.
The ringleader of the droid army, Count Dooku (a Sith lord) tries to escape but Obiwan and Anakin follow him and a lightsaber battle ensues. Obiwan gets knocked out and Anakin loses his hands. When all seems lost, Yoda, a small, green, froglike Jedi Master steps in and fends off Dooku. Dooku gets away and the battle marks the beginning of the Clone Wars. Anakin, now with new robotic hands, secretly sneaks off and marries Padmé and he now has to live a life of a lie because he is forbidden to love because he is a Jedi.
Episode 3:
The War becomes a burden on the Stability of the Galactic Republic. Chancellor Palpatine, an important figure in the Galactic Senate, is captured. Obiwan and Anakin sneak onboard the CIS (droid army) Command Ship above the Republic Capitol planet Coruscant where a major space battle is happening. They manage to save the Chancellor, kill Count Dooku and take down the ship. Anakin gets most of the credit and is unprecedentedly granted a seat on the Jedi council but is not awarded the title of Jedi Master. This angers Anakin and he confides in Chancellor Palpatine, who has been a long time friend of his. Palpatine starts to put ideas in Anakin's head that the council is afraid of him and that is why they don't want to make him a Master.
Padmé, now Anakin's wife, tells Anakin that she is pregnant and they are both conflicted with the news. Is it a good thing that they are going to have a child? Or bad that it will be hard to raise the child without the Jedi council finding out about his marriage.
Anakin starts to have dreams that Padmé will die in child birth. He takes his dreams very seriously as they did come true about his mother in Episode 2. He then begins to search for ways to gain the power to prevent people from dying. Chancellor Palpatine tells him that it is possible and confesses that he is in fact a Sith Lord who has infiltrated the Republic Senate. Conflicted with even more emotions, he reluctantly turns Palpatine over to the Council and they confront him. However, Anakin has second thoughts. He realizes he might never get another chance to learn of the power to save Padmé's life. He rushes to the confrontation and instinctively kills off the Jedi who are about to apprehend Palpatine.
Broken and downtrodden, Anakin becomes Palpatine's apprentice and turns to the Dark Side. He is dubbed Darth Vader.
Meanwhile, the Clone Army is given 'Order 66' at which time they all turn on the Jedi and betray them, killing all but a handful.
Obiwan and Padmé learn of Anakin's joining of the Darkside and follow him to the volcanic planet of Mustafar. Anakin is confronted by Padmé about his decision to turn to the Dark side and finds her disagreement a betrayal. He blames Obiwan for polluting her mind and turns is blade towards him. An epic fight between master and student breaks out and Obiwan manages to remove all of Anakin's limbs and leaves him to die at the base of a flowing river of molten lava. However, Anakin is saved by Palpatine and given a life support system. Padmé, has twins, Luke and Leia, but dies in child birth. Palpatine tells Anakin that it was his own fault and Anakin's will is completely destroyed ("NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" - Darth Vader)
With the public unaware that Palpatine is a Sith, he assumes control of the senate and votes are passed to transform the Galactic Republic into a Galactic Empire ruled by him.
Obiwan and Yoda, two of the very few surviving Jedi go into hiding. Yoda exiles himself for failing to defeat Palpatine and Obiwan is tasked to watch over Anakin's son, Luke, while his daughter, Leia, is handed over to Bail Organa who is the head member of the royal family of Alderan.
Now the only hope for the prophesy of the chosen one to bring balance to the force lies in the hands of one of the two children.
