Emma watched as Metroman flew out of the screen. The blades stopped spinning, allowing Emma to breathe a little before panicking once again. It's okay, he's coming. But even as she thought this, Emma began to watch Megamind with a greater fear. He was whispering to Minion in a hushed voice, smile on his face. Emma's lip quivered. Megamind looked over at her. He slid over to her, cape swishing dramatically.

"So, while we are waiting for Metroman, why don't we get to know each other?" he said. Emma's eyes flickered to the camera filming them. He wanted to tease her and everyone watching. Emma kept her mouth shut. Megamind shrugged. "Very well, I'll start." He said, walking around her. "I enjoy blowing things and people up, I am very smart, enjoy long walks to and from prisons (which I need to break a habit of), and my favorite color is blue." He whirled around, face close to hers. "Your turn." He said, grinning. Emma gulped, trying to calm down; awaiting the man who said loved her.

"I enjoy drawing criminals such as you, I am not much of a talker, I enjoy horseback riding and my favorite color is blue as well." She said, looking his right in the eyes. Megamind clapped his hands together.

"Very good! I was wondering if all you did was scream, not that I don't love that." Megamind suddenly looked surprised, pointing to his watch. "Oh my! We had a whole 'prisoner-to-Super Villain' chat and yet Metroman still isn't here!" Megamind suddenly pressed another one of his many buttons, and their screen turned to one with Metroman, standing in an observatory that looked just like the one that they were in, minus the buttons and computers. Emma blinked, confused. Metroman himself looked confused as well, as did the crowd.

"Oh, you all didn't think we were in the real observatory did you?" Megamind said. Emma's eyes shot to Metroman, who glared at the projection of Megamind. Emma looked around for something that could help, but again, her bonds were too tight. They exchanged a playful banter which Emma didn't understand at all. Finally, what Emma had been waiting for, Megamind finally shouted, "Fire!" Emma had heard the mention of some kind of ray, which was probably what he was referring to.

Emma closed her eyes. There was a very awkward silence. Emma opened one eye to see everyone frozen. Megamind was pointing to Minion, Metroman was looking at Megamind with a kind of pity and the crowd was starting to smile. Emma opened her eyes all the way to find that nothing had happened. Megamind's shoulders slumped in a kind of defeat and he walked over to Minion.

"Minion? Why isn't the ray firing?" he whispered. Minion pointed the screen.

"It's warming up Sir." He said, indicating the bar that was loading.

"The Sun Ray is warming up?" he repeated, slapping his hands to his face. Emma bit her lip, laughing. Megamind turned on her, irritated look on his face.

"Your laughter is not needed at the moment!" he shouted. Emma clamped her mouth shut. Megamind turned back to Minion, shoulders hunched. Emma turned her attention to the screen with Metroman. He was flying around the dome, hitting the walls, distressed look on her face. Emma tilted her head, trying to figure out what was going on.

He was saying a lot of random stuff that Emma couldn't understand. Finally, Megamind seemed to notice what was going on. He and Minion turned her heads to the screen, watching Metroman bounce around.

"Uh, is there a problem?" he asked. Emma's eyes flickered to the bar on the computer. It was nearly full. Metroman gasped for air.

"You evil genius!" Metroman gasped. "How did you know?"

"Uh," Megamind looked over his shoulder at Minion who shrugged.

"This dome is lined with copper!"

"Ya?" Megamind said, looking around the dome.

"Copper is my only weakness!" The crowd on the other monitor gasped, and a worried murmur spread through them. Emma could tell the copper had been a complete accident because Megamind did not look like he did this on purpose at all.

"Copper, seriously?" he asked. Emma turned her face back toward the computer and the bar finished loading.

"Metroman!" she screamed. Megamind turned on her, irritated.

"Okay, I love the screaming, but not at this particular moment." But Minion also saw the bar and pointed.

"Sir!" he shouted.

"Will everyone just stop yelling at me?" And at that moment, the observatory exploded. Emma sat frozen, watching the screen with Metroman flicker and go off. They all turned at the open slit in the fake observatory and saw the ruble explode into pieces on the cliff where the observatory had been. A orange and yellow fire ball shot up into the air and pieces of metal and wood went flying in all directions.

Emma's eyes widen at the sight of it all. Megamind was stand beside her, green eyes wide, mouth open. Minion was also staring, along with everyone else in the crowd located not far away. Everyone had stopped breathing. Then, a small object shot out of the cloud. Emma exhaled. Megamind's shoulders slumped.

"Great, and I really thought," his sentence was cut off as Metroman rammed into him, sending him to the floor. "Oh my God! I'm sorry! Don't hurt me!" But there was no fighting, no laughing, Metroman didn't even get up. Emma stared at the white costume. Megamind pulled the cap away to find a skeleton in Metroman's place. He let out a squeal, and jumped away. Emma just looked at the fallen hero.

"You…did it sir." Minion whispered. Megamind was also staring at the skeleton.

"I…did it." Emma's whole body was frozen in shock. They had said he would save her, they had said he always won; they had said he was invincible. Emma found herself crying silently, closing her eyes and trying to shut everything out. Megamind turned his attention to her for a moment.

"Take her back Minion, we won't be needing her anymore." But before Minion slipped the bag over her head, Emma looked at Megamind with such sadness and hurt, his expression changed, and his green eyes didn't leave the pain-stricken blue ones until the bag came between them, and Emma could see no more.
