Summary: After visiting with Luna, Angelina receives another strange letter and this time it actually frightens her.
Completion: Incomplete

Angelina had come home from St Mungo’s to find Rupert, Witless, and Kingston all asleep on the sitting room floor, tossed in some sort of odd pile. Prue shrugged, remarking that the trio looked so damn cute she didn’t have the heart to wake them.

They shared tea over the kitchen counter. Prue was packing up a handmade pair of lamps she’d just finished. Angie sifted through her post, wondering what would happen with Penelope and Luna.

Just as Prue announced that she was finished with her packing, Angelina opened a small package. Out poured a stack of photographs, fluttering onto the countertop.

“What’s all this?” Prue questioned as Angelina’s heart dropped to her feet.

On a small slip of parchment were four words scrawled in an untidy hand.

I am watching you.

“Angel?” Prue’s voice held a note of fear and revulsion. “These are all of you. Some of them with Kings.”

Angelina snatched the photographs up. There were about a dozen, all of Angelina alone or with her son. She recognized herself leaving the pitch, entering a shop, holding Kingston in the garden, laughing at something that wasn’t in the picture.

“Muggle style.” Prue said, reaching over the counter to take her sister’s shoulder. Angelina flinched, dropping the photographs. Her hands shook violently.

“Someone’s watching me.” Angie stammered. “Someone’s this close to me and my boy.”

“Call George.” Prue demanded. “Damn it, Angie. This isn’t funny. Call George. The Ministry. The goddamn Queen if you have to.”

Angelina started to protest, so Prue marched over to the fire. She tossed in a pinch of Floo powder and called out for George’s house.

“Oi! George, you need to come over to Angie’s. Now.”

George was sitting at his desk in the living room, being very quiet and perusing some of his plans for items Ginny had thought up over the last few weeks.

He nearly jumped out of his skin though when he heard his voice being called from the fireplace. "Prue? Is that you?" It didn't really matter. George got up and took some floo powder and instantly was transported to Angelina's house.

"What? What's going on?" He was looking between Prue and Angie, who was holding papers and what looked to be photos. "Is someone gonna speak?"

Angelina hadn't moved from the counter while Prue called for George through the fireplace in the kitchen. She held the note in one hand, the pictures in the other.

As soon as George stepped through the fire, though, Angie stood up from the stool and held out both for him.

"Its not a prank." Angelina's voice trembled. "I don't think it's a prank."

Prue stepped in then, putting a hand on her sister's shoulder. "She got a letter few days ago, said Die bitch die. We thought it was just from the last Harpy game."

George was shocked. Angelina handed him the photos and the letter and he read them over and saw the pictures - her and some with Kingston in them as well.

"Ang..." he looked up at the two sisters after Prue told him that this wasn't the first letter. "...why didn't you tell me? We're going to have to do something. Call the Aurors or..." He sighed and moved toward Angie, putting his hand on the one not covered by Prue's. "Do you have any clue as to who may have sent you these?"

Angelina looked from her sister to George, shrugging her shoulders. "I get hate mail from time to time. I thought it was just more of the same, you know? Healers sometimes take the blame if a team does poorly."

She indicated to the pictures. "Wouldn't bother me but for Kingston. I don't know who could be so hacked off at me! I've barely left the house in the last few weeks."

Angie turned to George, unable to resist the urge to hug him tightly. "What do I do? We can't let someone hurt Kings."

"I know Ang... come here..." George felt everything that Angie was feeling at that time - but he wanted to protect them both from this unknown sicko. It wasn't only his son, but Angie was his family too, in some way.

He gave her a hug while he thought, Prue looking on and George was very thankful she had been here for support. "I think ... I don't know, take both letters to the Aurors? But I don't want you to worry. If you want Kings to stay with me luv... he can, and we'll just go between houses, make it harder for whoever to track you down."

Angelina clung to George, feeling safe in the familiar embrace. It was terrifying to know someone was watching her, someone who could get close enough to snap photographs of her with their son.

As much as it hurt, Angie nodded. "He bounces around too much as it is, but I won't feel safe while he's with me." Whimpering, Angelina sighed. "We have to tell someone, Aurors or Hit Wizards or something George I'm scared." The last was said in a rush as Prue came up, holding her sister from the back until the three were in an odd triangular embrace.

George held onto Angie and rubbed her back, the letter and pictures being chucked to the side - as if he or Angie could forget about them that easily. "It's alright, we'll change up our schedule from the normal one and hopefully this nutbar will slip up after we get the hit-wizards after him."

He tried to calm all three of them down slightly, he would try is best not to let anything happen. But they did have to inform someone. "Come on, how bout a cup of tea yeah? And we can talk some things over?"

Relieved that at least George could stay calm, Angelina took a deep breath and pulled back slightly. Prue muttered about tea and squeezed both George and Angie by the shoulder before moving to fuss about with the tea kettle.

"How do you stay so calm?" Angelina teased half-heartedly, trying to smile. She exhaled slowly. "I just can't believe this. What can we tell Kings? I don't want to scare him, but he's bound to notice he's being shifted about."

Prue went into the kitchen after they'd all hugged and George brought up the idea of tea - he would need one as well. He was trying his best to stay calm for Angie.

"I stay calm ... not easily, but I just try to think about what to do, and not what will happen." George gave her a pleasant smile back in response to her attempt to give him one in this situation. "We... will tell Kings that he will be spending more time with Da because our schedules are changing. It's true and we don't have to worry him unnecessarily." George stated it sternly and plainly. "Anything other than that will just be telling him again not to talk to strangers."

Angelina smiled softly, letting George chase the fears away. It wasn't easy, her maternal instincts wanted to lock Kingston into a box for his protection, but that would only scare the life out of her baby boy.

"You're a good bloke, Georgie," Angelina told him sighing softly. "Glad one of us keeps our head on. I'm ready to dive headlong into the liquor cupboard." Listening as he ran down how they would explain everything to Kingston, Angelina relaxed even further. "Gods, you're brilliant. He'll love spending more time with you, I'll feel better knowing he's out of harms way while the Hit Wizards work on finding this whacko. You've done everything but tie it all into a bow."

Prue came back to them, handing each a cup of tea, fixed the way they liked it. One did not live with Angelina without knowing little details of both Angie and George.

"You know, if they don't catch him Angie can always take one of the new offers, Jamaica doesn't have enough shadows for a stalker, I think."
