4th BLUE REVISIONS 03-26-10 29.

A Frost Giant touches a pool of standing water. It FLASH-

FREEZES Hogun's feet to the ground.

Volstagg notices, hurries over, dispatching Jotuns as he

goes.

VOLSTAGG:

Hang on!

Volstagg swings his weapon, wildly hacking at the ice around

Hogun's legs to free him. Hogun looks down, suddenly

worried, as Volstagg's blade cuts deep -- and perilously

close to hacking into Hogun's legs.

HOGUN:

Watch the legs!

VOLSTAGG:

(REALIZING)

Right. Sorry.

Volstagg chips away at the ice more carefully, finally

freeing Hogun's feet.

Fandral sword fights with a Frost Giant.

FANDRAL:

You really think your icicles are a

match for Asgardian steel?

Fandral lunges at the Giant. The Jotun knocks his blade

away.

FANDRAL (CONT'D)

Fair enough.

Fandral moves on him again, but the Giant grabs Fandral's

sword and snaps it in half.

FANDRAL (CONT'D)

Could we stop just a moment while I

get another sword?

Fandral fights the Giant with his broken sword. The Jotun

then lunges at Fandral, who ducks just in time, grabs hold of

the Giant's sword and redirects it, stabbing the Giant

through with his own weapon.

The Jotun staggers back, then reaches down and swipes at a

pool of water, sending up a spray that freezes in mid-air,

forming into an ICE STALAGMITE. It impales Fandral,

rendering him helpless.

4th BLUE REVISIONS 03-26-10 29A.

Loki races towards the impaled Fandral, throwing daggers and

felling Frost Giants as he goes. He reaches the nearly-

unconscious warrior, when other Jotuns approach. He fights

them off.

Volstagg looks across the plaza and sees the impaled Fandral.

VOLSTAGG:

That's unfortunate.

He hurries to his wounded comrade.

FANDRAL:

I may need a bit of help. Not a

good look, is it?

VOLSTAGG:

Just try not to bleed.

FANDRAL:

How's the face?

VOLSTAGG:

Flawless.

Volstagg begins to pull the bleeding Fandral off the ice

stalagmite.

Loki plunges two daggers into the chest of one of the Frost

Giants.

The Giant grabs hold of Loki's gloved wrists. Loki pulls his

hands free of the gloves, which are still in the Giant's

grasp, revealing Loki's skin beneath. The wounded Jotun sees

his chance, grabs hold of Loki's bare arm.

Loki looks at his arm, prepared for the worst. But instead

of the blackness of necrotizing flesh, Loki's arm turns BLUE

-- like the Frost Giant's own skin. The blueness spreads

painlessly up Loki's arm. He stares at it, confused.

The Frost Giant is thrown as well, distracted by the

unexpected phenomenon. Loki takes advantage of the

distraction, KICKS the Giant.

Thor continues fighting, his blood lust rising. He taunts

the Jotuns around him.

THOR:

Come on!

But when he hurls his hammer to take out a Jotun, the Frost

Giants seize the opportunity. A group of Jotuns swarm Thor

from all sides, keeping him separate from his weapon.

Mjolnir falls to the ground.

A Frost Giant desperately struggles to lift Mjolnir off the

ground, to no avail.

Now free, the wounded Fandral looks relieved as Volstagg

slings him over his shoulder, and the warriors start to

leave.

From his balcony, Laufey looks upon the battlefield, decides

it's time to pull out the big guns. He touches a wall of the

palace. An ENERGY WAVE sweeps from his touch, across the

wall of the palace, and down to the ground below.

The Asgardians hear a foreboding CRACK OF ICE below their

feet.

LOKI:

That can't be good.

VOLSTAGG:

Yes, it could! Might be an early

spring!

They look down, suddenly filled with dread when they see

shadowy figures moving in the ice -- dozens of JOTUN WARRIORS

awakening beneath the surface, rousing to join the battle.

Loki turns to his brother, who battles a group of the Giants.

4th BLUE REVISIONS 03-26-10 31.

LOKI:

Thor, we must go!

Thor, still without his hammer, fights his Jotun foes

mercilessly, a man consumed by blood lust. Loki sees the

look on his brother's face -- the savage thrill of the heat

of battle.

THOR:

Then go!

SIF:

There are too many of them!

THOR:

I can stop them!

The others hesitate. Jotuns break up through the ice all

around them.

SIF:

Thor!

But Thor ignores his comrades, continues fighting.

VOLSTAGG:

Run!

Reluctantly, the group flees back toward the inner edge of

the planet as the Giants break up through the ice and give

chase.

Thor battles valiantly, but there's just too many of them.

The Frost Giants swarm him from all sides now, as he

disappears beneath a pile of blue flesh and ice. After a

MOMENT --

THOR'S FIST

Forces its way up through the middle of the pile of Jotuns.

He opens his hand, beckoning.

One of Thor's attackers hears something ROARING up behind

him. He whirls around -- BAM! -- Mjolnir nails him square in

the face, then flies into Thor's outstretched hand. Thor

raises the hammer up high, and brings it down on the ground

with all his might.

KRAKABOOM! Lightning strikes down from the sky, the hammer

channeling the blast, firing the electricity out at the

Jotuns around him. They're blasted back in a massive

shockwave. The Jotuns convulse, drop dead to the ground.
