The Hammer Hero. (A Rising of the Sheild hero Fanfiction.)

Chapter 1 The Realm of the Waves.

Pits gushed out smoke as the sound of combat increased. The screams of monsters and the roars of dragons filled the air as the dark mountains flanked a crater that was in front of a fortress. In that pit flashes of flames and even more screams erupted from it as a corps wearing armor started to stumble away from the pit and to the fortress.

The corps started to walk closer to the fortress being pushed by its brethren as they too tried to get away from the sound of combat and flashes of fire. The more it stumbled around, the louder the battle becomes. The monsters empty sockets flashed red with hidden hatred before it's head promptly exploded from the force of a flying corps to its skull.

A hammer crushed into the line of zombie-like monsters as a figure rushed forward. His armor was dark gray with maroon. The black blood from the beast covered it and steamed off of it as the hammer flashed red with flames before striking the ground sending a burning wave of fire towards the line of monsters causing some to fly into the air ignited by a flame that would not go out. The obsidian black horns on the helmet of the Warrior gleamed like obsidian as a dark liquid dripped from them. The slits for the eyes had an amber glow coming from it as smoke also poured out. The fur pelt that hung partly down the warriors back was no longer a light gray but was ashen black with flickers of sparks coming off of it. The chest piece made in the image of a wolfs head had scratches upon it and appeared to be snarling.

The figure brought the hammer down onto its back with the spike plunging into the ground before he used it to lunged himself forward like a catapult would launch a bolder bring the hammer around again onto the front of the new line launching up the stairs to the main door of the fortress. The warrior let go of the hammer with one hand open as the wolf head on the gauntlet's front glowed with red and blue eyes flames and lightning launched out engulfing the main door and killing the rest of the monsters.

Lifting the hammer with one hand, the warrior placed it onto his shoulder and walked towards the gate. The fortress looked like an old Japanese castle with its unique kind of roofs and red clay tiles, as well as the cobblestone foundation. The Door had the symbol of a spire sword and bowed behind a shield with a hammer in front of it in the middle where the shield should have had its jewel. The figure opened the door and walked in closing it behind him as he barred it with a piece of iron. In front of him was a wide pathway flanking the right side was pillars and statues of 4 figures each with similar but different armor as well as hammers. The left side had more pillars with four spaces each space had a rock waiting to be inscribed with its image.

The last statue and first on the right was of the figure that was walking down the hall. The figure threw the hammer tossing the 5-foot weapon towards another pillar before it vanished like it never existed. The ashen pelt on the figure's back changed color to that of a white wolf's fur with black markings on it. The character walked down the hall to a pit where the was currently a burning fire. Then Without hesitation stepped into it and the flames wrapped around him cleaning the rest of the armor.

Once that happened, the figure walked out of the fire and started to walk up a flight of stairs to a balcony that leads to another pit, but this one had what could only be described as a portal with a deep red rail around it with golden trim. As the figure walked towards it, Lening onto the railing looking down into the pit seeing from a bird's eye view of one of the four heroes. He had been doing this for some time watching the Hero of the shield and his struggle. Reaching towards his back upon which a leather pouch was, he pulled out a book and a pen and started to write what was happening to the hero.

Sam sighed as he took off his helmet and wrote his next entry into the journal of the Hammer heroes. He had found it along with the temple when he came here after crawling and fighting out of the pit. In the journal was a well-documented entry some in different languages others in English but all seemed similar in the fact that they all concerned two heroes. The shield hero and the Hammer hero. Sam first wanted to see if it could tell him how to get home and from what he read there was no way back. In fact from one of the entries from the most recent wielder of the hammer. He appeared to have hunted down a High ranking demon lord to use the demon's magic to send him back home. In his fight with the lord, he found out that the summing of the heroes requires a sacrifice.
