The Harley roared as he flew down the highway. A huge storm was behind him and he wanted to get to the strip of town that was only 3 or 4 miles away; he could take shelter and gas up there. He felt a few drops hit his buckskin jacket as he neard the town. Drops smeard his sunglasses. He roared into town and a few onlookers stared as he pulled into the gas station. His new beard had grown out to a considerable length. He had grown it out since he left school. He had a tattoo across his knuckles that read "Lone Wolf". He filled his tank and paid the clerk inside then parked his bike in parking spot and sat at a picnic table and ate some food and smoked a all natural cigarette. A large man walked by him and gave him a stare and said something under his breath. "What was that?" The older man stopped in midstride as he was going through the door.
"Problem son?"
"Not yet. I heard you say something as ya walked by. What did you say?" The rain came down harder as the tension in the air thickened.
"I don't reckon it much matters to you what i said." He spit a dip of Skoal out of his lip and stared down the rugged looking teenager.
"Sir, I ain't lookin' for trouble but if you want it, i ain't afraid to let you see it show." The biker flicked the last of his cigarette to the ground.
