moose it or lose it

The protective movements of the boys, subtle and unsubtle, weren't lost on him. A glint of mischief and daring in his firey eyes as he respected the warning of the white boy but the girl did nothing but intrigue him more. He nodded as the deal was made and let the winged boy take point. Since he was outvoted anyway.

He observed the moose over the icy terrain, acting strangely. Would their attack work or would taking this monster down need more cunning than what was suggested? He waited alongside the white boy, giving him and his girl a respectful distance, for now. Once it became clear it was time for action he launched into the fray and went to throw his body against one of the tall legs to trip the beast.
