A/N: I don't own any Puppet Master characters, they belong to Full Moon Features and Charles Band. I do however own Archer, Elizabeth and Wildcard and as normal when the puppets speak it will be in italics.
Also thank you Cryptic for letting me use Jinkx and Irya in this story.
Richard smirked feeling the bag in his hands squirming.
"No use struggling, we all know neither of you have any power."
"Let us go!" Leech Woman shouted trying to fight her way out.
"Well I will admit, I did not think that would work." Matthew said from the driver's seat.
"I told you I have my ways of doing things. Let's just hurry back before they catch up to us."
…
"Well look who finally decided to get up!" Torch growled limping over.
Jester ignored the comment.
"Did anyone get the licence plate number?" He asked trying to stay calm.
"Do you think we'd be standing around if we did?" Torch questioned.
"There wasn't one." Tunneler replied.
"Son of a bitch! How the hell are we supposed to find them then?" Six asked sitting on the boot.
"What exactly happened?" Jester asked.
"We're not really sure, we heard shouting then the trunk opened and we were ordered to catch them. Torch and Tunneler were the first chasing them while Six tried shooting them." Wildcard replied.
Jester took a deep breath.
"How the hell did they find us?"
Jinkx did some quick talking with her sister and looked at them.
"How they found us is irrelevant now understand me." she said and checked to make sure Archer was still with them.
Archer poked her head out from behind the trunk.
The others nodded.
Iyra however noticed something while the puppets were talking among themselves.
She knew Torch had clearly spoken to them, yet he was being ignored, nore did they acknowledge he had gotten hurt during the chase.
"We'll find a way to get them back. I'm sure the master has ways of finding out information about them and the car they've used." Jester said looking at Jinkx and Irya.
Iyra picked up Torch and inspected him carefully.
"Hmm."
She walked over to the car and placed him on the hood, Six Shooter moving aside so there was room.
"You ok? You got a few injuries here."
Torch squirmed a little not being used to being held by someone but gave a small nod.
He was hurting but at this point he was used to it.
"You're not ok." Six said.
"Like you care." Torch growled.
"Coming from the one who couldn't shoot straight." Irya says looking at Six whilst treating Torch's injuries.
"Hey I didn't want to risk hitting Leech Woman or Decapitron...he would kill me if that happened." Six said.
"Yet if that was me you'd still shoot without a care." Torch mumbled.
Jinkx carefully picked up Archer and hugged her gently.
"I'm so glad you aren't hurt."
Archer nodded though she had a few scuffs from when the trunk landed roughly when it was dropped but it wasn't anything major.
The rest of the puppets were discussing what details of the car they had spotted.
"Well a black car isn't narrowing anything down but it's a start." Jester said.
….
It was a few hours before Matthew and Richard arrived back at their temporary home.
"You sure they can't do anything?" Matthew asked.
"Of course I'm sure, Decapitron needs electricity mixed with the elixir to work and that damm platforms been damaged for years." Richard replied.
From inside the bag Leech Woman and Decapitron could only listen.
"That's impossible, he shouldn't know these things." Leech Woman said.
"That's because someone's controling him.. and I have a feeling I know exactly who." Decapitron explained.
"You don't mean?"
"I'm afraid I do."
…
By now Jinkx and Irya had arrived at their temporary residence and had let the puppets out to gather their bearings.
"Well we have tyre prints." Jinkx muttered.
From the other room Jester was racking his brain on how they were found.
He'd been pacing since he was put down.
The others though clearly upset could only watch Jester pacing.
"Nothing is adding up!" He finally snapped before leaning on one of the walls allowing himself to slip down to the floor.
I also own Matthew Gallagher and Richard Kraus and Lucy
