It all depends on where and when. If you're in early 17th century Germany, then your prelude is a lot like toccata form - fast, virtuosic runs of arpeggios and things. Lengthy in time and carrying many elements of the fugue.
If you're in 17th century France, then your whole form is pretty free and improvisational.
A prelude is a strange and wonderful form of music with multiple purposes and functions. I hope somebody can answer this more adequately for you, but I hope this will suffice for now!
