Prepared, But Still Unprepared Chapter 1, a harry potter fanfic

Hello this is my first fan fiction. My writing is not that good so I need a little bit of help. Please give me constructive criticism and tell me if there are spelling errors or grammar mistakes. Thank you! This is actually more of a prologue than a chapter.

( This is the newly updated me. I will/have changed most of this chapter, I reread it and said to myself, "Marlayn, I can't believe you wrote this, IT'S AUWFUL! so I have added paragraphs and made it sound like someone older that five thought it up.) Thanks for reading or at least clicking on my story!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own anything at all. Please do not sue I don't have any money.(At all)

Chapter 1

When Ginny was taken captive into the chamber of secrets, Percy was traumatized. He had never in his life, since the war, been that scared of what could and might happen to his beloved family.

Percy had just visited his sister, Ron and their friends in the hospital wing. He had spent his a portion of his savings today at Hogsmead on candy and other tasty sweets, and then came back as early as he could to give them to his siblings. He was very glad he did, because when he saw the dusty, empty table beside Ron, the few sweets on the one next to his sister and then compared them both to the table piled high of everything a child could want next to Harry Potter, he quickly split the treats and organized them on Ron and Ginny's table, so that it looked like there were more than there actually were and sat patiently in a chair across from them both to wait for them to wake up.

They had woken up, seen the candy and had gone wild. They most likely forgot Percy was there at all and probably assumed their friends, parents and maybe Bill and Charlie gave them the sweets, never once thinking that uptight perfect Percy may have been the person to gift the things to them.

Percy didn't care, all he wanted was for them to be happy. He felt when you love someone, you tell them what's wrong, correct them and help them even if they don't want the help and maybe even fight you about it.

Now Percy was sitting at his desk in his dorm that he shared with Oliver. He had finally convinced himself that his family was fine and that as much as the war was over they still had to be careful. So now that he could think somewhat clearly he put his brain on a mission to find a solution that would keep these type of things from happening.

Days and days went by, Percy went, paid attention and still excelled in his classes, but during the sidelines, whenever he had free time he would think about all the ways to keep his family away from danger.

By the time summer break rolled by he was ready. The minute he got home he pulled his parents aside and told him, in detail what happened and his ideas to prevent things like it.

They had been perplexed in what he said, as much as they knew they had not known the specific things that had happened, also, his ideas intrigued them he had a point, no one knew what would be in the future, so precautions weren't a bad thing. But what had intrigued them the most was the simple but significant things they could, had and should keep doing. Like for one, never, ever leave the house without at least one other person.

The next day Mr. and Mrs. Weasley scrambled to put together a family meeting to reinforce the new agreed on family rules.

The twins were sitting on the couch talking. Bill was on the floor next to the fireplace showing Ginny some new hexes, (to use on the annoying boys, and siblings). Charlie was focused on a competitive game of chess with Ron, and then Percy was sitting in an armchair reading a muggle book called Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain, a muggle author he was recently taking a liking to.

Their parents walked in after a few minutes, and everyone sat up, paused their activities to look at them and listen to the reason behind why they were all here, and in the same place.

"All right everyone, your father and I have agreed on some family rules we should all follow." Mrs. Weasley said, gathering everyone's attention. "First of all no one is allowed to go around by themselves, there is a locating charm, that you must never take off..." And so on.

The list was as follows:

Everyone should travel in groups of at least two people.

Everyone must wear a relative locating charm, for if Mr. or Mrs. Weasley wanted to find someone.

The classic, 'don't talk to strangers'

When you are staying at the Burrow, leave a note if you go out for a while.

Know the family incantation. (like a family password to know if you could trust someone) "Ateoculatia" the incantation to make someone sprout antlers on their head.

And lastly, a little compass that would lead you back to the Burrow.

The Summer went by and everyone had fun, stayed safe and were just their usually happy, large family. Everyone was prepared for anything that might come their way. They were so prepared yet still unprepared.

Sorry it didn't make any sense at the end hopefully it does now. Once again thanks for reading.
