[Steve keeps his back to him, facing the lizards with the energy shield raised between him and them, blocking the path to Tony with his body. He stays close to him, making the other man a harder target, because even if they lunge from the sides, he's easily within range for a strike of his own. Apparently even giant lizard creatures understand the risks of chess.
One of them gets grave and dashes forward anyway, hissing and snapping at Tony as Steve turns to kick it back, and as he moves to defend his adopted friend, the two others lunge in. One leaps, aiming to pounce its prey and knock him over, while the other runs in low from behind. Steve pivots and smashes into the first lizard with his shield, hitting it midair.]
