Percy woke up and noticed his wand was not on his bedside table. He instantly panicked, looking around but it had not fallen. He kept it on his shelf for easy access and it wasn't there. He tore around the room and it wasn't there at all. He panicked since the thought of not having his wand there was terrifying. He couldn't think of where it could be. He then noticed that his door was open. He never slept with the door open. He was obsessive about keeping it closed because if it was open, it was an invitation for his brothers to pull a prank.
He immediately went down into the breakfast area where everyone was already down stairs eating. He did not hesitate to go directly in front of the twins knowing that one of them had to have taken it. "Where's my wand," Percy demanded from the twins causing everyone to freeze.
The twins however just laughed it off finding the fact that he was so frazzled looking amusing. "Aww did ickle prefect Percy loose his wand," Fred mocked as his twin laughed.
"How irresponsible of you," George returned, "you should keep better track of your things."
Percy glared at them both shocking them since he actually looked beyond pissed off. No matter what they had done before this, he had never looked at them that angrily before. "Where is it, this isn't funny. Which one of you stole it from my bedside table?"
Everyone seemed to relax slightly realizing he was upset over a prank. "Boys give Percy his wand back," Bill ordered wanting them all to stop for the moment. They had their fun it was over.
The twins were still startled by the pure hatred they got from their older brothers look. He never looked at them like that. There was actual hatred in his eyes. "We don't have it," Fred said most of the laughter gone from his voice, they did not like how betrayed their brother looked at that moment. It made them feel guilty and they weren't even responsible. "Percy we didn't take your wand."
Ginny, Ronald and Anthony Gold were snickering on the other side of the table. Percy turned to them sharply since it was now clear who was responsible, "Give me my wand," he growled practically shaking in anger.
"Why don't you make us prefect perfect Percy," Ginny mocked pulling it out and waving it around.
Percy moved over towards them angrily, "Give me my wand Ginevra."
"Ohh, Ginevra is it," she mocked sending a stinging hex causing him to cringe as it struck. "You won't be getting it back now."
"Ginny give him his wand," Bill ordered seeing how angry Percy was. He was pretty sure this last prank had pushed there normally quiet brother over the edge. "It's no longer funny."
She sent another hex at him laughing, not listening to the eldest Weasley boy. She instead was getting more amused the angrier Percy became. "I think it is."
"Give me my wand," Percy demanded as she hexed him for the third time. He rubbed his chest cringing as it hit, that one had actually hurt and hurt badly. "Ginny now."
She tossed it to Ron who send another hex at him which he could not dodge, the room was too small with everyone in it. Fred and George were surprised at the thin trail of blood that seeped through his robes. This had passed funny. Percy however had enough and wandlessly summoned it into his hand.
Bill sat back down, "there you have your wand, funs over."
Fun, not one part of Percy found anything about that 'fun'. He was too angry to even look at his brothers, those hexes had actually hurt. He had had plenty worse but this had been he last straw for him. "You know what, fuck all of you," He said shocking everyone since none of them had heard him curse before. "I am only here because dad bagged me because he worries, I am so fucking gone, I am done."
Everyone looked at him shocked since Percy never swore. The twins paled realizing what he said. He was leaving. "Percy, he who must not be named is back," they said hesitantly realizing that they had taken this too far. Most of it wasn't them but they had laughed and did not bother helping. That made them just as much at fault, they knew that.
He glared at the two not caring anymore. He was so finished, clearly not one of them really gave a damn about him. If not they wouldn't have set their laughing as they stole his wand, a wizards main defense, as they hexed him and he had nothing to shield himself with, no way to defend himself. "Do I look like I give a shit? You all got your fucking wish, I am out of here." He stomped off towards the steps.
"Wait," Bill said running after him but he just summoned a bag and apparated away just as Arthur came down.
"Where did Percy go," Arthur demanded shocked. The bag had skimmed past his face and he had not expected Percy to disappear after catching it.
Bill cringed, not really completely sure what happened but he knew that his dad would not take it well, "Ronald, Ginny and Anthony stole his wand and wouldn't give it back, they kept sending jinx's at him. He got it back and summoned his bag." Bill had realized something, everything had happened too fast but this he was sure of. "Dad I don't think he plans on coming back."
Arthur paled, looking physically ill, "He who must not be named is back," Arthur whispered before turning to his children, the ones listed responsible. "Go to your rooms now, I will deal with you later."
"It was just a joke," Ginny said though she was slightly nervous since she had never seen her dad so angry.
Arthur glared at her sick and tired of his kid's treatment of his third son, "It is never a joke to steal someone's wand Ginevra," He said angrily. That was one thing that was just not done and yet his kids had done it to their own brother then hexed an unarmed wizard. "I had to bag and plead with Percy to stay here this summer and to live at home last. I begged him because for a Weasley, it's practically a death sentence to be out and about. If anything happens to your brother, it will be your fault."
"It was just a joke," Ron stated annoyed that they were getting growled for it. "He's being a baby."
Arthur turned his anger to his youngest son. "It is not a joke, nothing you four have done is a joke. You pranking your brother stopped being funny, 14 years ago. It's cruel and you have spent too long torturing your brother. If he gets hurt, if he dies it will be all of your fault."
Arthur wasn't pulling punches, he was tired of sugar coating it, asking them to stop. If Percy died because he was out there with Death Eaters then it was his other children's fault. "Dad," Bill said shocked that he would actually say that to them.
"No, I have spent too long holding my tongue, I thought maybe you all would grow up, instead you all have not given Percy a moment's peace, he can't even escape you at Hogwarts. Well done, you've all finally pushed your brother away enough to leave. The thing you have been attempting for over a decade. Now I am going to go find my son before he gets himself killed. I will deal with you all later."
The kids gulped slightly, he was extremely angry. Even the order, none of whom stepped up felt guilty for not defending the other boy. Put like that, it showed what they should have done easily enough. "I can't trace," Sirius admitted attempting to help the man out. That fact stumped him. He knew how to trace apparations, it was in auror training but this one left no mark. "How did he learn how to do untraceable apparation?"
Arthur cringed realizing he had no idea where his son would go. He did not know how his son knew untraceable apparation but now he had no way to track him. "Damn it."
"We will help you look for him," Fred and George offered hesitantly.
Arthur glared at them both, they may not have been directly responsible this time but he was not letting them off the hook that easily. "No, you both have done enough. Stay here."
"Dad," Bill said shocked at him.
Arthur just shook his head, he was too angry to care how harsh he sounded. "No William, I have had enough of Percy being treated like an unwanted outsider, it has been over a decade of this nonsense so I am not going to hold my tongue. He is my son and I have failed him once, I will not fail him ever again. They have made his life hell since the moment they could, he has not been treated like a member of the family and I will do everything in my power to make sure he is safe. Now I am going to go search for him before a death eater find and kill him because they would love to get ahold of one of my children," Arthur said apparating away.
No one knew how to react at Arthur losing his temper. It was just not something that happened.
