Swung it down on/at/upon/toward?

She jumped into the room with the sword above her head and swung it down on/at/upon/toward him, chopping one of his arms off.


1) It's a vertical swing. Is "swung it down on/at/upon/toward" a natural way to express that?

2) Also, what is more natural here "on", "at", "upon" or "toward"?

3) Anything about the rest of the sentence that you think I should change?

Thank you in advance.
