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 in this story.


Matthew nodded.

"You seem to know alot about me, yet how do I know you're not trying to trick me?" He asked.

Richard took out a photo and slid it over to Matthew.

"The woman who stole those puppets from you is a woman know as Jinkx Lupei. She's currently allowing another woman called Elizabeth Toulon to stay with her. And yes they have the puppets in their possession." He explained.

Matthew's face turned into a sneer seeing the photo of Jinkx.

"Yes, that was definitely the same bitch who stole them from me...may I ask how you know all this?" He asked.

"If you show that I can trust you I'll tell you. But for now I'll just say I have my ways." Richard replied.

Matthew nodded.

"I'll need to do some investigating to make sure your information is accurate." He said.

Richard nodded.

"I understand. When you see I'm right and want to talk I'll be staying at the nearby hotel." He said getting up.

The two soon parted ways.

A few hours later Richard was sitting in the hotel lobby and smiled seeing Matthew arrive.

"I knew you'd come back."

Matthew motioned for Richard to follow him.

"You were right. It was hard to find certain information but she is who you said she is." He said.

Richard nodded with a smile.

"Are you willing to agree on our deal then?"

Matthew nodded.

"Yeah. Though we have a lot of planning to do."

Back in Romania Jinkx was doing her evening checks around the home, mainly making sure none of the puppets were getting into trouble.

She looked in the room they were based in and saw Six Shooter, Pinhead, Torch and Tunneler playing a game of cards.

Archer was sitting away from the others talking with Wildcard.

And Jester of course was still nearby to Jinkx.

"Who's winning?" She asked.

Everyone pointed to Six Shooter, the six armed cowboy giving a friendly wave.

Jinkx looked down at Jester who was still wearing a frown.

"Maybe it'll do you some good to have a game with them." She suggested.

Jester only shook his head.

Torch threw his cards down and stormed off.

It was clear he did not take loosing very well.

Six let out his usual laugh only to get a gentle but firm tap on the back of his head by Jinkx's cane.

He glanced up at her innocently.

"It doesn't work for Jester and it won't work for you." Jinkx said.

Six shrugged as if to say to her it was worth a try.

Jinkx bent down and put a box down next to Six.

"I had this made to replace your broken gun, it cost a lot of money."

Six immediately opened the box and examined his new gun.

"Not bad actually." He said getting a feel for it.

He turned towards a dartboard set up on the other side of the room and fired a few shots.

He nodded pleased with it and tipped his hat at Jinkx to say thanks.

Jinkx smiled back.

"You're welcome, now it's getting late. You can finish your game and then I want you to settle down for the night. Wildcard I suggest you head back to Elizabeth's room soon unless you want to stay here tonight."

She glanced over at Pinhead.

"Yes you can keep Elizabeth company if you want."

He nodded happily but gave Six a gentle shove a few moments later.

"I can take the gun back if you don't behave Shooter." Jinkx warned.


I also own Matthew Gallagher and Richard Kraus.
