A/N: Hey all! This is a new story for me and I haven't written anything in awhile as life tends to get in the way rather quickly so please be patient about updates. I do hope you all the enjoy the story. Comments are welcome for there's no way to grow if you don't get feedback. Thank you to those who actually take the time to read this! :)

This fic is slightly AU in terms of dates so bear with me. The Percy Jackson aspect is decades before its time as well as any electronic reference and I may have moved some of the years of marriage and graduation of elder generations to meet my needs so the adults are a year older than cannon.

Chapter 1 - Well This Is Certainly Unexpected

It really had started as a rather normal day in the ministry. It was a routine check of records. The system the ministry only updated family records every twenty years, so, for example, while everyone knew the Potters were all gone, with the miraculous exception of young Harry, the records still showed James to be alive. In fact according to records Harry Potter didn't even exist and Lily Potter was still Evans (they really needed a new system). Today would set it all straight.

The rather large gap in time for updates was due to the amount of time it took to oversee each update. According to protocol, each update had to be administered in person so that all facts could be verified with a pensive if necessary.

So today was the day that the entire department of family records had been waiting for. The Potter records were to be updated, the last time being five years before the tragic event that took the lives of James and Lily.

As the entire department wanted to see this it would be done in sight of everyone instead of by one witch of wizard.

The room grew quiet as the scrolls of parchment bearing the Potter name went blank and then began to rewrite itself. The beginning was actually quite boring as it contained the history of the Potter family that was already known. It was when the end was in sight that people started to really pay attention. And then they all saw it. There was a general feeling of confusion quickly replaced with disbelief then with something akin to a happy panic.

Everyone had been anticipating the joy of Lily's name being added to the scroll and then Harry's and sadness and melancholy that would accompany seeing the death of the two elder Potters but no one had seen coming the shock that came with the line in between them

A/N: so yeah this was a bit of a boring chapter. This was really to lay the foundation of the story and give context. Percy will be 2 years older (he's 17 here so he's been in both wars) than Harry. The explanations for Percy being a demigod will come soon. No, Harry is not a demigod. Again explanations soon. Comment please. I want to know what can be improved. Thanks for reading!
