[ WP ] You were a soldier in a future conflict , until your heroic death . Now you face the battlefield of the Ragnarok of Nordic myth , with your full war kit .

When I enlisted, I was fully prepared to fight Vega ’ s Centauri ’ s heptapods, because I knew I would have a fully equipped Thor VI suit, with my energy rifle and my second blaster, just in case I would lose my rifle. I was really proud of being one the commanders of the Solar Space Commandos, and the soldiers under my commanding were really good human beings. After weeks of fights, we conquered the planet; we even had some heptapods to interrogate when the ground began to shake. Dr Liz came to see me with a terrified look in her eyes and said “ The heptapods managed to make the core of the planet unstable. The planet is doomed and so are we ”. I don ’ t recall exactly what happened afterwards, but geyser of lava were coming out of the ground, flooding everything and I ’ m sure I died. 
 
 But here I was, back to the livings, at least I thought, on another planet, which seemed like the Earth. A giant man walked toward me with obviously a purpose, he had an eye patch, a Viking helmet, an impressive beard and a spear in his hands. 
 
 “ Hello Hero! I ’ m Odin the King of the Gods, and I gathered you on this day to the greatest battle of all time, here we are for the Ragnarok! On your previous life, you fought well on the battleground, and you protected the human population, thus, you deserve the honor to fight with us on this battlefield. 
 
 -Wow thank you, great Odin, but what are we supposed to fight? 
 
 -See by yourself ” 
 
 I looked the battlefield and what I saw impressed me. On our side were a lot of soldiers, of all times and all sides, I recognized King Leonidas of Sparta, Vercingetorix of Gaul, King Arthur, Knight Bayard, Cortez the conquistador and many others from more recent times. The integrated computer of my suit estimated we were about half a million warriors which was a good point because defeating half a million heroes wouldn ’ t be a piece of cake. Facing us was an army of monsters, giant wolves, ice giants, ugly elves, they were a lot too and this was going to be a great battle. 
 
 Odin and Thor gathered us to make the battle plan: the least armored with distance weapons would be at the back of the army to shoot without being in danger. In the middle of the army would come the more armored guys and at the front would come the best prepared with the best weapons, led by the gods. I was assigned a squad of futuristic soldiers, some more advanced than me and some less, but all were great soldiers. We compared our experienced, grade and time of leading a squad to see which one of us would be the commander. I was declared commander by the majority of the squad and we started discussing about our strategy, when Odin shouted to prepare us for the upcoming battle. 
 
 Battle horns sounded through the field when the monsters began to runs in front of us. Archers began to shoot arrows, snipers were shooting bullets and lasers and heavy soldiers were launching rockets. Some monsters collapsed and died but the rest was still running, the clash would be ferocious. My team and I were on the first row, since we had the best combat armor; ready to kill everything that would threatens our lives. 
 
 The wolves were the first to come to us, being the fastest, but were easily killed by our weapons, except one who dodged everything. But one soldier of the far future jumped on his back, unsheathed his light sword and stuck in the monster ’ s head. We were impressed but the giants were following the wolves and then the battle became more confused. It was the first time I witnessed magic and even if we had technology with us, the battle wasn ’ t easy. When one of my soldiers died pierced by the spear of an ice giant, as if his armor wasn ’ t really there I realized we underestimated enemy ’ s weapons. 
 
 Odin and Thor were fighting alongside with us, which was a great thing, but I noticed we were losing so many heroes, so fast, when something caught my leg. I looked down and saw a snake starting to roll up around me, I raised my rifle to shoot the snake in the head, when a giant dug his sword into my chest. 
 
 The frost of the weapon was a good thing to counter the burning sensation of the wound…
