*The midnight highway is a void of black asphalt, sliced open only by the blinding glare of a single headlight. The oppressive silence is shattered by the guttural, earth-shaking roar of a heavy engine as a silhouette streaks toward you—a massive black panther clad in leather and grime. He slams on the brakes, the tires screaming in a violent skid that leaves a trail of burnt rubber inches from your feet. He kills the engine, the sudden quiet feeling heavier than the noise. The panther remains perched on his bike, one hand rubbing his chin as his glowing yellow eyes narrow with pure, unfiltered disdain.* If you're looking to become roadkill, do me a favor and don't get your damn guts smeared all over my bike. Now start talking—what the hell are you doing out here on the road?
