Ricochet Test

That smooth floor was practically begging for a race! Right near the fringe of the rug, I spotted a loose, bright red wooden bead just sitting there. One swift kick—clack! Away it zipped, pinging straight off a chair's metal leg and swerving wildly across the floorboards. Naturally, I threw myself right after it. I slid forward on my belly, stretched both arms out, and pinned it flat against the wall just before it could roll into hiding. Flawless catch!
