When the Destroyer Attacks
Asgard was no stranger to attacks. Attacks on the Golden Realm came frequently and the host of Asgard would rise to meet the challenge before them. It was a never ending cycle of death and violence. One day it would end with a final battle, but that would not be today.

Legions of the deal led by Hela followed after the Destroyer. Multitudes of the dishonored dead and the common dead followed their mistress to the walls of Asgard. The dead weren't the only ones approaching the city. Trolls and Frost Giants were also in the ranks of the enemy. Their numbers were far greater than the number of those defending the city.

At the head stood a giant figure in shining armor. The Destroyer, once created to challenge the mighty Celestials, led the advance on Asgard.

	The thick ranks of the trolls and the legion that follow them were deemed a perfect place to set the bear-sark, who could stand toe to toe with the large creatures, and not flinch from strength or numbers. The losses will be high, they always are - but that's what the bear-sark, and the young prince at their head, are there for. "FOR ASGARD!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The trolls smile when they see the warriors rush out. They readied their clubs as soon as the Asgardians were close enough, they started swinging. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn charges into the first club, not even trying to evade it. The powerful swing bloodies him, but shatters the club to splinters, leaving its owner wide open for a return stroke with the axe, Halbjorn looking less and less sane as he smells blood in the air. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The axe connects and bites through the thick hide of the troll. The troll roars with pain and tries to swat at the man attacking him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The attack hits, and for a moment, the prince's legs almost buckle under the impact, but he holds, then surges back, tearing his axe free while swinging his free hand at the troll, trying to force it back into the midst of its fellows. "RRRRAAARRRGH!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The axe caught the troll's hand and chopped it off. The troll yelled with pain and went staggering backward. He crashed into another troll. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn roars with fury and victory, leaving the first trolls to untangle themselves and let lesser warriors finish the wounder, instead launching himself towards the nearest healthy threat, seeking out the greatest challenge. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Many worthy foes await the Bearsark this day, but so do swarming numbers of lesser ones. Following in the wake of their troll shock troops, the undead, knowing neither fear nor pain any longer, threatened to engulf Halbjorn in a tide of necrotic flesh and jagged bone. The troll toppled by the now headless one stumbled back to its feet, shrieking in rage. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

This might be the point where his father would whirl the hammer about, throwing foes this way and that.

Halbjorn is not his father.

He plunges into the heart of them, tearing flesh, smashing skulls in his bare hand, slashing at anything in front of him, taking their raking nails, biting teeth and stabbing weapons, wearing the blood and gore - his and theirs.

And there are no words, not any longer.

"RRRRRRAAAAAAARRRRGHHH!"

	Svalin heard the yelling and turned to see her brother. He was in the middle of trolls and there was blood everywhere. By Odin's beard she wanted to go and help him, but her duty demanded she stayed where she was. Still. She had to do something. She ordered the legions in that area to step up and press the attack on the trolls. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Halbjorn is neither aware of, nor cares about the legions. This is when he's truly alive, not fighting the madness that threatens to consume him constantly, but fighting with it in his soul, and letting it free.

This is what he lives for. This is what he will die for - if not today.

He tears into the legions, flinging undead aside until he finds another troll. Its club leaves a new mark on him, bloodies him further, before the club is severed by his axe, and the bear-sark flings himself bodily at the monster, with a few undead still clinging to and tearing at him.

	The second troll gets up a full running charge, grabbing up its would-be allied undead and brandishing them as clubs, swinging both arms down at Halbjorn as it roars. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's blindsided, and thrown into the masses, disappearing for over a minute as the undead swarm, clawing, biting, swinging their weapons, heedless of each other. At last, almost unrecognizable from the wounds and coating of blood and less identifiable gore, he comes charging back at the troll, throwing one of the undead ahead of him like a missile weapon.
