"You're useless, you know that, don't you?" Chester said irritably, shoving Katherine aside and moving in to inspect the car. She held her tongue - not so much out of respect as to avoid starting an argument at a time like this. He rummaged under the hood, grumbling, and stormed back to start the car again. The car made a groaning noise... no, wait, that was coming from the figure emerging from the woods. Alarmed, she reached in and reattached the battery clips. The car started, and Chester yelled, "Move your useless ass already!" She sighed and hurried into the car.
