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.
While Jinkx was on the phone the rest of the puppets were unsure of what to do.
"Retreat to the trunk for now, we can't risk being seen." Toulon said, his spirit appearing nearby to them.
He turned to Khan, Leech Woman and Wildcard.
"Go with them, you'll be safer there."
They nodded, though it was clear Leech Woman was reluctant and Wildcard had to be lead away by Six Shooter.
While the rest of the puppets returned to the trunk Toulon's spirit lingered watching on as Jinkx and Pinhead tried to help.
"Archer, Jester. Take her to where the trunk is located."
"What about Pinhead?" Archer asked.
"I'll be fine, just go." Pinhead replied.
Jinkx walked into the room and put down the phone picking up Wildcard and inspecting her quickly.
"You seem to be fine little one."
Lucy looked around the room still scared.
The other Puppets looked over at her but due to most of them remembering their encounter with Lucy before they made no move to attack.
Jinkx soon left the room, closing the door behind her.
As much as she wanted to check on Lucy Elizabeth was her priority.
Lucy gulped seeing the others looking at her.
"It's ok kid, they might look mean but they won't hurt you." Jester assured while giving a firm glare at them.
Tunneler ignored the look Jester was giving and walked over to her.
"Are you ok Lucy?" He asked.
"You know her?" Wildcard asked.
"Long story." Torch replied.
Lucy shook her head.
"I didn't mean to hurt her. The evil man did something to make me."
"Evil man?" Jester questioned.
Concidering Lucy referred to Gallagher as The Devil it was clear there was someone else involved.
Lucy nodded.
"He came back with The Devil and did something to me. I don't know what it was." She replied.
"You're not going to hurt me are you?" She asked.
Archer looked unsure.
"If we can be sure you mean us no harm unlike that Pyro thing."
Lucy shuddered.
"Master fed the others to him..it's just Mystic, him and I left."
"Don't call him that." Archer sneered.
"People like that don't deserve that title. Jinkx and Elizabeth are our masters." She said glancing over to Leech Woman, Wildcard and Khan.
Though Wildcard was clearly not impressed with Lucy.
"So if you call your former master The Devil..who the hell is this Evil man?" Torch questioned.
"Did you happen to get this name?" Tunneler asked.
"Krass? Kouse?" Lucy said.
Jester's face spun to his shocked reaction.
"You've gotta be fucking kidding." Six said.
"Wait that doesn't make sense..he was after Elizabeth for years.. how would he know about this person?" Leech Woman asked.
She remembered the talk she and Blade had shortly before Mephisto had shown his true colours.
There was a pause as an uncomfortable thought filled the room.
…..
Richard nodded with a smile.
"Got her."
Matthew nodded.
"Can't say I was expecting that to work." He commented.
"Just need to wait for the ambulance and then it's a matter of getting Decapitron and Leech Woman." Richard said.
"Why those two?" Matthew asked.
Richard smiled deviously.
"Take those two and you'll have Toulon in the palm of your hands.
"And if there's no ambulance?" Matthew asked.
"Then we have the backup." Richard replied.
….
It felt like forever until Jinkx walked back into the room with a person behind her, though the puppets weren't concerned about them being seen by her.
"All of you even Liz's puppets, gather your things we are leaving, I have arranged a train to take us to somewhere more secure, we can't stay here if they know we are here." She said before looking at her friend and whispering something to her.
"She is a qualified doctor she'll save your masters life" aiming that one at Liz's puppets.
There was clear reluctance from Pinhead to let go once the doctor entered the room.
True usually the sight of blood on his hands would roll off his back.
But it was different when it was a master or ally that was hurt.
Six sighed looking at the others
"Ok you heard her, back to the trunk."
However this posed a problem for Khan, Leech Woman, Wildcard and Decapitron.
Even with Blade and Jester not in the trunk there was not room for all of them.
"Khan, you and Wildcard go with the others." Leech Woman said.
"And leave you and Decapitron unguarded and unable to protect yourself?" Wildcard questioned.
"Just do what I say, we don't have time to argue." Leech Woman replied.
They reluctantly headed towards the trunk.
Pinhead looked up at Jinkx and her friend.
"I know you can't understand me. Please protect her." He said and hurried towards the trunk.
I also own Matthew Gallagher and Richard Kraus and Lucy
