Ready to Move

My boots felt planted, but then my knees unlocked! I twisted my shoulders and gave both fists a solid clench. I can really move! Right behind me, a tall glossy purple card stood like a shiny wall. I turned slightly and gave the slick surface a quick tap with my knuckle, feeling it shudder against the blue ledge. The wooden floor beneath me is completely steady. I squared my shoulders, locked my stance, and got ready for whatever comes next.
