Killing Frogier

Joco stopped with a grunt up ahead of him. Tannhauser jabbed him. The instant Joco squealed, Frogier made his move: he spun and shoved Joco backwards with all his weight. As the spear tip slid in between  the ribs, Tannhauser pulled it back, but the body was falling, down the slope...He let go of the shaft and stepped back and the counterweight spiked into the mud...Tannhauser raised the crossbow as Joco twisted and fell and shot the black shape lunging for the gloom. Frogier sobbed and dropped.
