UGH!

Sophie was not prepared for a snowfall in the middle of September. No, the snow could stay away for another few months for all she cared. The problem was, though, she couldn't move due to the thickness of the cold, white substance.

A thought occurred to her, and she jerked her head toward the pendulum. It wasn't near her for now, so she just focused on trying to get herself out the snow. She lifted up a leg and walked forward. Her planet gave a slight roll forward, which was at least progress.

The next problem was that the progress put her right in the line of the pendulum. "AHHHHHH!" she called out from inside her planet. She began banging on the sides of the ball in panic. The pendulum swung by and very slightly brushed across her planet ball.
