Emily's fearful screams echoed throughout the city until it reached Mr. Lordi who was almost fully recovered from his wounds. He looked up to hear the sound of her voice knowing that she was in peril. She needs my help, Mr. Lordi thought as he stood up taking notice that the wound he had taken from the beam had closed up from Awa's healing powers. Thank you Awa, He reminded himself to tell her as he walked looking for the source of Emily's distress call until he found his battleaxe lying in a pool of blood surrounded from dead demon scraps cut into pieces.

Knowing Emily, I never thought she would go this far to slaughter demons, Mr. Lordi thought as he picked up his axe and suddenly he heard a loud sound. The earth shook hard and it sounded like a machine. A powerful machine one that only he could remember. It cannot be, she is here; now she has Emily. I must save Emily! Mr. Lordi thought as he caught glimpse of something large atop a building far away. It was hard to tell what it was but Mr. Lordi knew there was only one way to find out. He let out his strength that returned to him and his wings expanded on his back; he started to run until he was airborne and began flying towards the enormous creature or thing that was waiting for him.

Mr. Lordi reached the top of the building where whatever it was, was waiting for him. He descended and landed on top of the large building. The sound of Emily's cries for help were now close.

"Let her go!" Mr. Lordi shouted with rage as he looked around for the source of the captor. Suddenly as he turned around he caught glimpse of Emily trapped inside a glass bubble plunged into the floor.

Mr. Lordi walked towards her. "Stay back! It's a trap!" Emily warned him.

And she was right, the whole thing was a trap. Then the floor shook harder than ever and something shifted from the ground. Suddenly the ground burst open and an enormous machine with jaws of death, clawed arms, and massive legs emerged from stories in the building below. It was enormous and ferocious unlike anything else Mr. Lordi had seen before. But the worst part was that on the machine's torso was Emily attached to it inside the glass bubble.

Mr. Lordi was overwhelmed, he knew who was commanding it. "Unhand her Evilyn!" He yelled. Emily heard his words and began to wonder who Evilyn was. No response came from whoever else was inside the machine. The monstrous mech bent down and roared right in Mr. Lordi's face.

Mr. Lordi readied his axe in one hand and a power in the other. Emily watched through the inside almost as if saying: "Break the machine but please don't break me!" Mr. Lordi looked at Emily with love, wanting to free her more than anything.

The huge mechanism lunged forward and swung one of its arms straight at him. Mr. Lordi jumped to the side evading one of its giant hands that pounded into the ground hard. Mr. Lordi swung his axe and chopped off the monster's hand. The machine roared in agony and began to chant words that he did not recognize. Then thousands of zombies emerged from below and charged straight at him.

"Is that your power? An army of zombies? Give me a challenge!" Mr. Lordi growled. The zombies came in swarms surrounding him in all directions. Mr. Lordi gathered up his strength and unleashed a powerful shockwave that sent all the zombies flying off the edge of the building. This is too easy, she could at least put up a good fight, Mr. Lordi thought.

"You have done better before, Evilyn! Give me a challenge!" Mr. Lordi roared, waiting for the next attack. His voice reached Emily and whoever was operating the machine, this Evilyn character.

"He wants a challenge eh? Well he is about to get one!" The voice inside snarled that was not Emily.

The monstrous mechanism roared loud again creating a huge breeze that nearly swept Mr. Lordi off his feet. He plunged his axe into the ground to hold himself steady. The wind was a strong gale, almost strong enough as a tornado. Mr. Lordi look up at the machine with rage and was suddenly blown towards the edge of the building and soon was hanging over the edge.

Emily screamed, but the sound of her voice was barely heard through the glass. Mr. Lordi looked up and saw her face; she was afraid to lose him. No she will not lose me! Mr. Lordi thought as he looked at Emily with love and then his wings expanded, he let go of the ledge and flew up into the air charging towards the beastly machine that swung towards him. He evaded from left to right and then used a forced push to drive the machine against the wall of a taller building nearby.

The machine quickly got back up to him again and began firing rounds of flame orbs towards him. Mr. Lordi landed to the ground and dropped into cover for a short while as the fire hit all around him. It must have a weak point. Where is it? He wondered as he got back up again and then waited for the beast to lunge at him again. When that chance came he once again swung the axe severing off the other metallic hand. As it dropped to the ground he quickly dashed behind cover again.

Mr. Lordi panted to catch his breath. Somewhere there was a vulnerable point in the machine and he needed to find it fast. The battle was almost too easy for him as he thought but it left him with a lot of effort to keep himself standing. He peered behind cover and caught glimpse of something he had not seen before the last time he was attacking: He now saw the back of the machine and directly below the glass bubble Emily was trapped inside, there was a small red light blinking. It had to be the core of the machine. Mr. Lordi knew that was where he would have to focus his attack if he was to succeed in order to bring the monster mechanism down once and for all, and be able to do so without harming Emily. He looked once again to find the machine now facing another way waiting for him to emerge. Then he charged forward.

The beast turned to face him immediately and slammed into the ground sending a shockwave towards him. Mr. Lordi jumped in the air and avoided the force that would have pushed him back to the edge again and then he had an idea. He began to gather his power within as he ran and then darkness began to grow around him once again. He felt the vortex returning to him as it did earlier against the demon army only this time it needed to be stronger. He felt rage building up inside him. No one captures Emily, He told himself over and over inside until finally his dark vortex returned even larger than ever expanding as big as any black hole in the universe. He roared loud with rage as everything began to turn black all around him, and moved towards the machine.

Emily watched in horror once again as Mr. Lordi's vortex expanded even more until finally it reached the machine. The beast turned black all over and its metallic growl sounded as if it was in pain. It was blinded giving Mr. Lordi his chance. He ran towards the creature, leapt over it and then he was he was behind. He took out his axe and stabbed it straight through the heart of the machine.

The monstrous mechanism screamed in pain as if it were a living creature. Sparks of electricity flew out of the eyes and spread all around the creature's body. Mr. Lordi pulled his axe out of the machine's core and then swung it at the glass bubble, breaking Emily free. Mr. Lordi ran to the other side in hopes of finding her and watched as more sparks flew out of the machine's body and soon it exploded into thousands of pieces setting off a strong light as if it was a nuclear bomb.

As the pieces crumbled to the ground Mr. Lordi spotted Emily crawling out of the broken glass bubble. Mr. Lordi ran to her side, took her hand and, pulled her out. Emily looked at him with tears in her eyes and then she threw her arms around him.

"Thank you!" She said with sobs.

Mr. Lordi wrapped his arms tight around her waist. "Shhh, it is okay you are safe now." He whispered softly as he held her tight and kissed her on the cheek,

"I was so afraid you were going to hurt me while destroying it,"

"I would never hurt you," Mr. Lordi told her gently as he pulled away slightly and gazed into her eyes. Emily looked at him as well.

"Never?"

"Never."

Then he leaned in to kiss her but before his lips could touch hers, something rose from the scrap metal left from the machine and fired something straight at them. Emily took notice first before she could receive his kiss.

"Look out!" she shouted causing Mr. Lordi to noticed and then he quickly grasped her tighter the two of them jumped to the side and fell over. They both rose and then turned to face someone who had emerged from the machine wreckage. Mr. Lordi's face turned angry, for it was one person he thought he would never cross paths with again.
