Disbelief

The legion commander was absolutely shocked.

He'd faced humans with shields before, and he thought he understood their strength well enough. Sure, this shield-wielding human was stronger than most, but the commander still didn't think he was a serious threat. He'd considered Captain America the weak spot, the one he could break through.

Even as Captain America leaped off Iron Man's shoulder and dove toward him, the commander was still certain of his plan. He took a quick, cocky stab with his thorn, confident that he'd pierce the Captain easily. But what happened next was a surprise he never saw coming.

Just as Captain America dove toward him, a hammer suddenly flew into his hand. The leap that had seemed simple suddenly took on a new intensity, as the Captain, with the hammer's power, came down with incredible force.

For a second, the commander thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.

He couldn't believe anyone could go from regular human to powerful warrior in an instant. It had always been debated whether Captain America could lift Thor's hammer, but the movies had finally answered that question. And now, with the power of the hammer in his hand, Captain America was nearly unstoppable.

With his hammer raised, Captain America brought it down hard, the blast of thunder shattering the protective energy around the legion commander and snapping his thorned right arm in half. The force sent him skidding backward, crashing through rows of his own soldiers as he slid, thunder still crackling around him.

Dazed, the legion commander staggered to his feet with the help of nearby soldiers. His mind was racing. 

On one hand, he was stunned by the incredible power that hammer seemed to hold. On the other, he couldn't help but wonder where it had come from and who had made it. He knew he was facing something beyond his understanding—power that seemed almost divine.

Captain America leapt into the air again, swinging the hammer with strength that sent thunder crashing down all around. Lightning sparked from the hammer's swing, and Cantel fighters around the commander were blasted backward, some knocked out cold just from the electric shock.

Panicking, the commander clutched his broken arm and switched to using his left hand, claws bared. Unlike Thor, who fought with sheer, brute strength, Captain America had years of training in hand-to-hand combat. He moved with agility, using a quick side-step called a "butterfly step" to dodge the commander's claw. He slipped around the attack, swinging Thor's hammer with lightning speed, and landed a hard blow to the commander's face.

The butterfly step was inspired by the famous boxing champion Muhammad Ali, who once described his fighting style as "moving like a butterfly, stinging like a bee." It allowed Captain America to stay light on his feet, avoiding hits and delivering fast, hard blows. Now, with the hammer, he used the move perfectly, as if the hammer was an extension of his own strength.

The commander's face twisted from the impact as his head snapped to the side, the force of the hammer's blow lifting him off his feet and sending him flying backward.

Captain America didn't stop there. He threw both the shield and the hammer in rapid succession, each spinning through the air toward the stunned commander.

With the power of Thor enhancing his throws, the shield and hammer now had the force of magical weapons. The shield alone, made from vibranium, was strong enough to slice through metal, and with Thor's power behind it, it could cut through just about anything.

As the shield and hammer flew toward him, the commander somehow managed to twist in midair, narrowly dodging both weapons. It was an impressive move that showed his own skills as a fighter, even when caught off guard. But his escape didn't last long.

In a flash, Thor's hammer, flying faster than the shield, caught up and rebounded off it. The hammer struck the commander from behind, knocking him forward, just as the shield ricocheted off a wall and returned to Captain America's waiting hand.

This combo move was the same one Captain America had used against Thanos in the final Avengers movie. It had even caught Thanos off guard, momentarily keeping the powerful villain on the defensive. The commander was no Thanos, and he had no time to figure out what was happening. One second, he was dodging the shield; the next, the hammer struck him from a blind spot, and lightning surged through his body.

Nearby Cantel fighters were stunned by what they saw. The shield and hammer had moved as if guided by some unseen force, hitting the commander with pinpoint accuracy. Captain America seemed to command the weapons effortlessly, as if they were a part of him.

But for Captain America, it was second nature. With Thor's power surging through him, he had full control over his moves, adapting each strike in the heat of the moment. Even if someone else held the same power, they wouldn't be able to use it quite like he did.

As the commander staggered to his feet, his body weak and crackling with energy, Captain America caught the hammer as it flew back to him. Without hesitation, he threw it again. The hammer tore through the air, lightning trailing behind it, as it smashed into a group of Cantel fighters, plowing through them and heading straight for the commander.

In desperation, the commander tried to shield himself, but the hammer struck him in the chest, sending him flying once more. As he was airborne, Iron Man locked onto him and fired a powerful missile, the explosion sending the commander spinning through the air until he landed with a heavy crash.

The commander barely had time to react when he looked up to see Captain America and Iron Man preparing their final attacks. Captain America leapt into the air, thunder and lightning gathering around him, while Iron Man hovered above, his arc reactor glowing as he charged up a powerful blast.

"It's time to finish this," Stark said with a smirk.

Realizing the danger, the commander grabbed one of his own soldiers and held him in front as a shield. The terrified soldier barely had time to understand what was happening before the combined thunderbolt and reactor blast struck them both, the explosion lighting up the battlefield.

As he felt himself fading, the commander's last thought was disbelief—he'd gone from using a shield to becoming one himself.
