A huntsman goes into forest to find it. During the hunt, the Huntsman and some soldiers engage in a lazer fight with the "monster", many die as the Huntsman cowers away, but is soon discovered by a large metal man. Before this metal man could kill the Huntsman, it runs out of ammunition as such the Huntsman and the soldiers capture it and take it back, dubbing him "Iron John". Iron John is kept in a cage at the castle of the kingdom that captured him. In order to "feed" Iron John, The King takes local criminals and other undesirable for John to enjoy, the King believes John to now be "harmless" as such, allows his son to play near it. The Prince eventually loses his ball, which bounces into John's cage, he demands John give it back but John will only give it back if the child comes closer via opening the cage. The Prince opens the cage to take back his ball, but John takes the child into the forest. John gives the Prince a distinct order to not drop anything in his magic well, but the Prince, having hurt his hand touches the water, disappointing John. John goes off, leaving the Prince alone. Eventually, the Prince finds himself in a rival kingdom where he works within the royal palace undetected. A war breaks out and the Lost Prince goes to fight in it, asking for John's help, who transforms his horse into a mechanical death machine and gives him armour for protection. John and the Lost Prince fight in the war, and come out as unknown heroes, however, the Lost Prince suspects he is part of a "grander plan". After the war and after The Lost Prince is married off to the Princess, a scrap breaks out between the parents of both both the couple, with both demanding the boy come back to them. John then appears, now with the curse lifted and he states that the Lost Prince, (whose name is revealed to be Conner) had helped him and will become John's heir instead, with the other Kings disposed of in the process.
