Molly wipes her face clean before getting up and advancing slowly after Shane and Ariella, staying behind to support in case something goes squigly and someone falls. From the looks of those tiny balls headed towards them, that was about to become a very real possibility. Seeing that Shane had already moved to a place relatively unaffected by the small bead, she resolved that it was time to match speed and move up. She stumbled a bit as some beads rolled beneath her feet before falling hard. She growled angrily, just about fed up with all of this and with a great clap of her hands, that same low rumble emanated from her body as she created a conical wall of push force around her to redirect the balls to go AROUND where she was standing.

She then pushed herself to her feet, face and nose beginning to get warm, and advanced forward in an attempt to push her way to the top of the pyramid as quickly as possible. The shadowy strings served to slow her down significantly, but she pushed on as well as she could, stumbling and bumbling but keeping her field up to avoid the worst of it.
