This is the story of a professional hitman and his adventures traveling across the USA. He is a complex and complicated man with many sides to his personality, both good and evil and everything in between. A warning: There is violence in this story, so if that's not your thing, please move on. Then again, it's a story about a hitman. What would you expect? This is only the first part of a very rich canvas. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm riding on an interstate bus. I stole money.
I stole a lot of money.
It is in a satchel on the floor between my legs.
I've got a stranger sitting next to me wearing a brown windbreaker with a company logo and a bag lunch on his lap, and I have $1 million in cash next to him on the floor. Do you think less of me?
The guy in the next seat over doesn't think so. "Hey bud, look at those fucking clouds," I said, pointing out the window. "Do you think it's gonna rain again, already"
"Christ, I hope not. I was planning to go to the track tomorrow. Fuck!"
"Well, good luck with that!" and I lightly punched him in the arm. "If I give you $5 bucks, will you put it on the winner for me?"
"Yeah, sure, okay. Who do you like?"
"Who do you like?"
"I like Dangerous" going off a 7-1 in the 5
th
."
I handed him the fiver. "Dangerous it is."
"But how will how I find you?"
"Trust me, I'll find you."
I always found them. That was my job. That was what I was good at. That's what I was best in the world at. I'm the world's best professional assassin, and I'm retiring on this bus ride. Done. Quit. For me, it's over.
You know that Bruce Willis movie "The Jackal?" Horseshit. A fun piece of fluff, but no one kills for hire like that. Especially when you're hunting Big Game. But, you've got to admit Bruce seemed to be having a pretty good time with all of those costumes and disguises.
What if I told you it was actually over 1 million dollars in the satchel on the floor between my legs? That it was around 2 million dollars. Would you still think less of me? After all, stealing 2 million dollars ain't chump change.
Why did I do it? I needed the cash. Well, shit yeah! Everybody except for Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos needs the big green. Hell, they probably need the cash too.
And to save you the trouble, This ain't "Dog Day Afternoon," I don't need the money to pay for my friend's operation or save my ailing mother's life, and it isn't as morally correct as The Shawshank Redemption. I ain't doing the right thing.
I earned this money the hard way. I killed people for it. Some good people. Some folks I regret. Some unlucky people, and some who flat out needed killing. It is my money. I earned it fair and square. I wasn't being compensated as promised, and I stole it because it was mine. Got it??! It's mine.
That means I have a very large price on my head because the guys I stole from are bad guys and do not appreciate my actions. And that was why I was on this shitty bus, peeing in a dirty lavatory in the back, driving across the country to who knows where in an attempt to disappear.
However, to help ensure that the $2 million stayed safely in my hands, the stacks of $100s weren't the only thing in the satchel. A couple of Uzis, a sawed-off shotgun, and a handgun or two were keeping the cash company. Also, my trusty Glock 17 was lightly placed on my hip. Hey, it's America!
The bus was pulling into a TA Travel Stop for a pit stop. Nice clean place with clean restrooms that are so large there are no doors, and the crowd walks into them. Designed for truckers' privacy except for the huge lit-up billboard of Flo, the Progressive Insurance lady beaming down on me while I took a leak with my satchel between my legs.
I wonder if Progressive would insure my cock. You know, $1,000 a hardon. Or $5,000 if I couldn't pop a boner. Probably not. I heard some old movie star like Betty Gable had her legs insured. If she could do that as a publicity stunt, why not my cock? Flo, the Progressive Insurance Lady in her little white smock, was hot in her geeky way. Who wouldn't want to be the lucky guy who nailed Flo?. I looked at her beaming down on me and wondered how many cocks she had to suck to get that million-dollar gig. Speaking of insurance.
Anyway, peed, washed up, and ready, I walked out amongst the truckers. A few were walking around their rigs checking their tire pressures with a thumper, some taking a snooze, and a few getting serviced by a lot lizard, mostly quick blow jobs, even a few gay ones.
Back on the bus, I moved towards the backseats, kicked my legs out, and leaned back for a snooze since the sun had finally set. About 15 minutes out, I felt another's body slip in beside me. I opened an eye to see a good looking blonde.
"How about twenty bucks for a tug, Sweet Cheeks"
I shook my head no and went back to sleep.
After a bit, a hand quietly undoing my zipper woke me. That wasn't the only thing it woke, or maybe it was already awake.
"Oh, you're a big boy, aren't you. $50 for a blowjob."
"How about we discuss the fee later."
