Ulik was sent flying by Theoic's energy fist, towards Thor who was still soaring over. Ulik who spends a lot of time jumping around had the advantage as he approached Thor who had his hammer ready for attack.

When in range Ulik flipped his body over Thor who missed the swing, then slammed his feet down on Thors back who was sent into the ground creating a crater upon impact. Ulik who launched off of Thor was now falling back down to a dazed Thor who was unaware of his decent, coming down hard feet out as he stomped Thor back into the ground.

Thor growing angry started to radiate lightning along his body, Ulik thinking nothing of it raised his hammer to bash in Thor's skull who unleashed his lightning, calling down a strike that connected with Ulik's hammer which absorbed a portion of it before Ulik was blasted away.

Thor jumping out of the crater grinned- "You got me with that one, but the bout isn't over yet... (Losing his grin)... you'll pay for what you did to Sif."

Ulik snarled out- "It's you gardians that will pay!"

They both charged each other swinging their hammers together, smashing them against one another, where Thor for the first time noticed his opponent's weapon as the two hammers met. The collusion created a loud 'Boom' sending air pressure away from the impact zone, neither giving ground as they tied.

Thor's eyes widened seeing the opponent's hammer up close- "Not possible, where did you get that."

Ulik grinned while boasting- "If Asgard can do it, Trolls can do it better."

Thor frowned- "You think a knock off will save you? I'll show you the true power of Mjolnir." he said backing off, lifting his hammer in his hand he called lighting down which he then directed through the hammer towards Ulik who blocked with his own hammer but was ultimately sent flying back since Ulik wasn't able to deal with so much lightning coursing through his body at once.

Thor feeling better smirked- "Just a knock off and you dare boast."

Theoric showed up next to Thor greeting him- "How goes it, Thor? Do you mind if I step in, I have unfinished business with him."

Thor feeling like he already won didn't feel anything wrong with it, he didn't wish to steal someone else's prey.- "By all means... Theoric is it? Are you sure you can take him?" he asked, believing Ulik was decently strong, but not putting him in his eyes with having to rely on a knock off.

Theoric knowing what Thor was thinking, gritted his teeth in a happy grin trying not to punch him in the face, answered- "Yes."

Thor was intrigued by Theoric, unable to recall him being that strong. Seeing Ulik was on his way back gestured with his hand,- "Then he's all yours."

Ulik seeing Theoric next to Thor scowled, throwing his hammer at Thor while attacking Theoric. Thor ducked under the hammer not even bothering with it as he stepped back to watch the two clash.

Theoric first tried just physical strength since Ulik was without his hammer, trading blows with Ulik who was growing irritated that someone who was once a worm could now stand toe to toe with him.

Ulik growled as he threw a hard right, Theoric threw his right to meet it so he could see once and for all how he matched up in a straight on clash. Ulik reading his mind snorted as he grabbed Theorics incoming fist instead, using his momentum to toss him easily away as he summoned the hammer back with his other hand.

Thor who was enjoying the sight heard a friend who was keeping an eye on things shout out a warning to him. "Thor lookout!"

Thor not understanding where the threat was turned around only to have the hammer he dodged earlier coming back, smacking him right on the side of the mouth as it flew on by back to Ulik's awaiting hand.

Thor tasting his blood spit it out while checking his mouth with his hand. Seeing the blood he wiped pissed him off,- "You made me bleed, You made me Thor Odinson Bleed!" his volume getting higher as he talked.

Thor now enveloped by a lightning aura with glowing blue eyes- "You filthy cur, I Will Smite Thee!" he shouted as he aimed his hammer, shooting out the biggest bolt of lighting yet at Ulik.

Ulik smartening up, knew he couldn't take it head-on and threw his hammer out to meet it, causing an explosion of lightning at the impact zone, dropping the hammer where it hit.

Thor surprised that the fake hammer was still in one piece, questioned again what exactly it was.

Theoric arrived at this time not feeling bad about sucker punching Ulik who got a lucky hit in back at the top of the building.

Thor seeing they were fighting each other again cooled down and let it play out, it was their duel to fight, he wouldn't try to interfere if it wasn't for that cheap hammer shot, now he knew how some of his enemies felt.

Ulik summoned the hammer again while he fought Theoric. This time he was going to only concentrate on Theoric knowing that he couldn't take them both at the same time and was more than happy to take them out one by one if that's what they wanted.

Theoric frowned seeing the hammer back in Ulik's hand, realizing he wasn't going to get the type of fight he wanted.

Ulik swung the hammer down with all his might which Theoric defended against with a quickly formed energy shield that couldn't hold up as it smashed through breaking his left arm.

Theoric released a painful sound- "Ahhh." as he retreated releasing white light to heal himself back to normal.

Theoric shouted- "Enough! I will put you down now."

Ulik unconvinced laughed- "With just you?"

Theoric no longer holding back started to wield his energy, creating chains to pin Ulik down. He then created swords above Ulik which he sent down as soon as they were formed, Ulik breaking out of the chains swung his hammer in the air, smashing most the swords, but one slipped through and impaled his leg.

Ulik for the first time released a painful sound, glaring at Theoric.- "You will pay for that gardian, after I crush you, I'll crush the other and take his hammer, I'll have two hammers and be unstoppable."

Ulik ignoring the pain charged forward to Theoric who condensed a stronger shield in his left and sword in his right, looking like he was going to fight, but instead formed a spike shooting it out of the ground right in Uliks path who had to dodge right to avoid being impaled through the chest.

Theoric took this time to run up and engage close quarters, swiping with his sword which Ulik blocked with the hammer in his right hand. Theoric used his shield to hit his right arm further away while he did a quick spin coming out with a nice slice across his backside.

Ulik grunted it off as he swung the hammer back around, which was a mistake as Theoric capitalized on it shifting to a shield to his right to defend while the shield in his left turned to a sword which he stabbed into the still exposed backside making Ulik howl in pain.

Theoric gloated- "I think you're relying too much on that hammer."

Ulik who jumped forward to avoid follow up strikes scowled in response, letting out a roar he charged back in with hammer swinging.

Theoric couldn't help but release a sigh, Ulik was not a hammer master. Feeling better about his abilities after using them a bit, he grew in confidence as he formed new chains to tie up Ulik's feet while he was running. Tripping him, Ulik managed to throw his hammer which Theoric decided to try and grab while Ulik broke through the chains.

Dodging the hammer, Theoric reached out to grab it, immediately being jerk along as he planted his feet down to stop it, creating a trench for a few feet before stopping.

Theoric now holding the hammer grinned, this one didn't have Odin's enchantment, so anyone could wield it.

Ulik didn't concern himself with this though as he tackled the distracted Theoric from behind, who dropped the weapon. Ulik called to it while he mounted Theoric who gathered his energy around him and expanded it out at a rapid pace throwing Ulik off who missed the incoming hammer.

Theoric turned around and got up looking at Ulik who was now a sitting duck in the air. Unable to stop himself from grinning he formed many spikes on the ground waiting for his return.

Ulik frowned seeing the awaiting spikes but didn't forget his hammer as he called it back which helped pull him away from the trap, landing safely away.

Theoric losing his grin sent the spikes after him, Ulik who has yet to learn the spin block move, swung wildly in an attempt to smash them all with some getting by adding new wounds.

Ulik at this point was growing weary from all these new tricks, he heaved out in frustration as the situation started becoming more clear to him.

Theoric stalked closer with a shield and sword ready to finish it once and for all.

Ulik clenched his hammer thinking he would much rather have his pounders right about now.

Theoric took off at a run when he was close enough, Ulik did the same raising his hammer which baited out the shield from Theoric who was then kicked in his exposed chest sending him flying back a few feet, but not before he sliced Ulik's leg for the effort.

Theoric came right back at a howling Ulik who was becoming desperate as he threw the hammer again in hopes that a miracle would occur. Theoric threw his sword in response as it passed the hammer to continue to Ulik, he then dodged the hammer giving up the idea of grabbing it as he proceeded to a now defenseless Ulik.

Ulik in his desperate semi crazed state failed to dodge the sword completely as it sliced his arm open as it proceeded past. Ulik howled again in pain and frustration and then charged Theoric while calling his hammer back.

Theoric raised his shield skin layer as he placed the shield on his back while forming two more swords, one in each hand.

They ran at each other not intending to stop as Theoric jumped up letting the hammer from behind slammed into his shielded back, propelling him forward at a speed to fast for Ulik to dodge in such close proximity. Swords extended out he slammed into Ulik impaling him through the chest, one through the heart.

Theoric getting up looked down at the dying troll, somewhat surprised to see this day come, It wasn't that long ago he was crushed to death by him.

Ulik's eyes regained clarity as he neared the end, tears forming he looked up at the one who killed him.- "I just wanted to save my brother," Ulik managed to say with his last breath.
