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.
Over the next few days Jinkx started teaching Elizabeth how to properly handle her new gun in a private area of her estate.
Six Shooter sat nearby watching with interest.
"To be able to shoot a gun as a human again." He thought.
"How they doing Tex?" Jester asked plopping himself down by Six.
If it was possible Six would have pulled an annoyed face at his younger brother.
"How many times do I need to tell ya not to call me Tex? You know I hate that damm nickname."
Jester shrugged.
Six sighed smacking him with his hat.
"God you are such a pain sometimes."
"You love me really." Jester retorted.
"Tolerate is a better word." Six muttered.
Elizabeth sighed still not used to holding a weapon.
"It's for their protection." She reminded herself.
Jinkx looked at Liz not knowing Six was watching them.
"Here let me show you." she quickly draws a Peacemaker and fires six shots rapidly at the target in front of her
"You need to relax."
Six only folded his arms feeling a twinge of jealousy.
If he was human he could show her a few tricks he'd learnt over the years.
Jester couldn't help but let out a chuckle for the first time in ages.
"Is the cowboy jealous that Jinkx is the one to teach her?"
"Shut up….maybe."
Elizabeth sighed trying to relax.
"I'm not used to handling a weapon. It doesn't feel natural." She said.
"Well you've got to learn." Jinkx said simply.
Elizabeth nodded.
"I know. I do appreciate that you're offering to help me learn." She said.
Jinks took the modern gun from Liz and hands her the Peacemaker.
"Here use this one, it's the gun I was trained with when I was in Texas."
Six made his way over wanting to get in on the action.
Elizabeth was the first to notice him.
"Did Decapitron send you here?" She asked.
Six shook his head and pointed to the gun she was holding.
Elizabeth nodded.
"You saw me with the gun and wanted to see what I was doing right?"
Six nodded.
"And you want in on the action." Elizabeth chuckled.
Six nodded again.
Elizabeth looked at Jinkx.
"I don't mind him tagging along if you don't."
"That's fine as long he doesn't interfere." Jinkx replied.
The three stayed out shooting for a few hours before heading inside.
"You did well." Jinkx said watching Jester and Six Shooter run ahead of them.
"Thanks. Still need to get used to it though." Elizabeth smiled.
They paused seeing a package on the doorstep, Six Shooter having his guns drawn on it.
A few moments later Torch and Tunneler emerged from the house, Tunneler's drill turning and Torch's flamethrower aimed at the package.
"Can you lot please not try and destroy more of my mail." Jinkx grumbles at the three.
Torch only growled at it aggressively.
"This is a regular thing they do then?" Elizabeth asked.
Jinkx nodded annoyed.
"Unfortunately."
"Hmm reminds me of a story Decapitron told me once." Elizabeth commented.
"See even she knows it could be a Totem in there." Six said.
"Maybe you three need to calm down, it's just a package your master bought. Probably to help fix Blade up." Wildcard said making her way outside.
"Well I sure as hell am *not* taking that chance." Torch said igniting his flamethrower.
"Hey!"
Using her cane Jinkx quickly moved the package away from them.
"What has gotten into you three?" She questioned, she had never seen them be so aggressive before.
Wildcard simply raised her hands walking back inside as if to say not my problem I'm not getting involved.
"Liz take the box inside please." she walked into the house and picked up Wildcard gently.
"I need you to round up all of the others, can you do that?"
Wildcard nodded pointing to the railings upstairs.
As it turned out Jester had informed the others of the mysterious package and they came to investigate.
"Hey Jinkx..I think I know why they're freaking out about this thing." Elizabeth said.
She walked over and showed Jinkx that it was her name on the package, not Jinkx's.
"I need you two to follow Liz here with the package, Jester I want you to round up the others and bring them to the study, even Blade, I want to inspect him make sure he is recovering."
Jester nodded.
"Pinhead, think you can help me with Blade? I'll get Archer, Khan and Leech Woman to head downstairs."
Pinhead nodded hurrying to fetch Blade.
I also own Matthew Gallagher and Richard Kraus.
