I have to agree with you.  There has been loads of foreshadowing for 
Percy.  In my mind, it started in Chamber of Secrets when Ron and 
Harry found him reading "Prefects Who Gained Power" (CS pg. 58) in 
the back of the junk store - and in the all important words of 
Quirrel/LV at the end of PS/SS, "There is no good and evil.  Only 
power and those too weak to seek it."  Books 3 and 4 are rife with 
references by Percy's brothers on his hunger for power and 
advancement.  Ron even wonders in Gof it he would turn in his own 
brothers if they were up to something illegal.  I personally feel 
that Percy will be duped for some time by the dark side.  However, I 
hope it is shortlived.  I am hoping that Percy will become a central 
figure in bringing down the dark side.

Cool!  I hope your fanfic comes true because I am certainly cheering 
on the inner-Percy!
