Remember the Disclaimer - A disclaimer states that you do not own something. Saying that you own something that you do not is plagiarism and is illegal. When you write fanfiction, you add a disclaimer before the first chapter, or preferably every chapter, that states that you do not own the book, movie, etc. A disclaimer could be a simple as 'Don't own, don't sue." or it could be longer. It could also be humorous such as, "I humbly bow before J.K. Rowling, who wrote the Harry Potter books that I do no own even in my wildest dreams." Sometimes a funny disclaimer actually acts as a hook for your story.
