To Add a Piece to the Hoard

I nudge the body, trying to figure out how to take off the helmet without squishing it. I really like this helmet, it will look good on the little ledge in my den. I slip my mouth around the head, stepping on the body to hold it still and pull. It doesn't come off. I pull harder. Still nothing. Harder.
The helmet comes free into my mouth, with the head still inside. I drop it, growling. I don't want the head, it'll make my den stink. I start swatting it with my claws, trying to knock the head out. The head and helmet bounce around, still attached to each other.
Mama puts her boot on the head, looking down at it then at me. "Do you want the helmet?"
I wag my tail, waiting. Mama bends down and pulls the head out of the helmet, rinsing it out in the nearby river and tossing it to me. I grab it in my mouth, happy with my prize.
