This is a fairly decent sized gas station with eight pumps that are pre-pay. Basically you pay for the gas before they cashier will approve your pump. Outside there is fairly limited parking spaces five spaces close to the highway, six in front of the store, and seven around the back. The employees take the back parking spaces leaving only the ones in the front of the building.
GB Exxon Gas station alone is a fairly busy station. Inside it consist of a newly built Beer Cave along side a nice and cool suckee machine, both always fully stocked. It also has a male and female restrooms, but the line is usually back up. The shelves are stocked with food and the store receives a shipment twice a week in order to keep stocked.
There is also a Subway inside the store. There are only four tables in the lobby and eating in peace and quite isn't an option. The Subway usually has a separate line of it's own never less than four people in the line at a time. The employees are fairly decent and fast at what they do, but the line never seems to dwindle.

Gabriel walked into the gas station and looked around for a place to get a nice cold drink, as soon as he walked through the door he reeled back a little in disgust, he had unwittingly strolled into a cesspit of human filth. Gabriel pulled the bottom of his mask up to cover his nose and his trench coat fluttered as the wind of the blizzard raging outside blew in around him, the warm air of the heated gas station blasted against his face and began to melt some of the frost on his coat and mask.
'Are you going to slaughter them?' The voice said with a hint of anticipation in his voice.
'No, I just came to get a drink, then I'm leaving...'
'Aw come on...you know you want to.' The voice chuckled.
Gabriel marched into the station and strolled over to the refrigerator to grab a soda, Gabriel had to turn down the heated bodyglove he was wearing underneath his coat to be more comfortable in his new environment. Gabriel found himself surveying his surroundings, taking in all the details. The gas station had standard tiled walls and floor, there were four places for cashiers to take money and at least one of them had a firearm behind the counter, there were only four walls, one of which was made of glass and led to the outside, they were boarded up for the blizzard, the interior of the station was fairly roomy and was divided into multiple sections for the numerous supplies that the station provided, there was a subway for lunch but there weren't many places to sit and eat, although the station was more than capable of accommodating 30 patrons the station was overcrowded and hard to navigate, all the cashier spots were being manned and there were probably 5 or more employees managing the other spots in the station, and behind the counter the station sold cigarettes.
'I sure could use a pack...'
'Don't bother, it'll only shorten your time in this body, besides why bother with a smoke when there are so many playthings running about?'
'Look I'm not in the mood for you to be talking so just shut up!'
Gabriel adjusted his bodyglove a little more, the inhibitors in the suit were activated and whirring as he moved.
'All you'd have to do is activate the bodyglove's cloak and then take out the cashiers so they don't have a chance to grab their guns and then use it to create some fear, it would make killing the rest a piece of cake.'
'Look just because I'm wearing this that doesn't mean I'm going to use it to kill, it's just not challenging enough, you know how I operate I use the cloak as a last resort when trying to evade a captor.'
'I'm just trying to get you to release your inner self.'
'Well stop it! I'm not in the mood for this sh*t!'
Gabriel got into a line to wait for the cashier and started to lose his patience, the cashier was taking forever and the people in front of him were arguing about something but Gabriel wasn't interested enough to listen. Gabriel's soda was starting to sweat in his hand and he could feel himself losing his will to stay docile. Gabriel could feel his hand sliding down to his knife, he had placed it on his thigh and attached it to his bodyglove, the protective plates attached to it were pulsing with a light glow and hexagonal shapes appeared in the light. Gabriel took his free hand and flexed it in aggravation.
'I wish these idiots in front of me would shut the hell up!'
'Look just kill them, I know you want to.'
'And!? Look that's what my will is for, besides I'd rather pick my target than just mindlessly slaughter a group of people, no matter how much they disgust me.'
Gabriel wasn't making much headway in the line and the two in front of him were still bickering. Gabriel started to think about what the others were doing and whether or not they were looking for him. He was intrigued by the thought of being hunted, the hunter becoming the hunted. Gabriel snickered as he thought of his former comrades hunt him, he knew better though, odds are they were too wrapped up in themselves to give a sh*t about him, which was perfect, now he truly was free, he didn't have to worry about anyone searching for him, he could do as he pleased without any repercussions.
'Maybe I should...'
'You should, it would be so enjoyable.'
'Yeah but...'
'But what? You know the beast inside you wants blood and you can't deny you want to appease it, it pains you to see it squirm and pull on it's chains, to see it suffer and yet you still lock it away, you trap it in a cage and wince as it bashes against the sides, so let it out, let him go.'
Gabriel shuttered a little, in his mind the beast was raging, it was roaring and pulling on it's chains, it rammed itself against the walls of his mind and it snarled. A tear rolled down Gabriel's cheek as he watched it suffer.
'I'm so sorry, I can't...'
The beast spoke, it spoke in his own voice and it sounded as if it was in pain, it lingered on every word. 'Please...Please, let me out.' It pleaded. 'Please...' It was almost as if it was crying to be let out.
'I...'
'Please...'
'I...I...'
'P...please.'
Gabriel had a distant look on his face and his hand slid down to his knife. 'Alright, I'll free you, I'll let you go.'
Gabriel's gold eyes turned red and a faint smile slithered across his face but it was hidden by his mask, he pulled his coat off and threw it aside, his mask still obscured his face. People around him backed away and gasped in shock and fear at what they saw. Gabriel was adorned in weapons, covering his body, he had a short sword mounted diagonally across his back, he had knives attached to both of his thighs, there were throwing knives bristling across his stomach, and the rest of his bodyglove was covered in protective plating, his whole bodyglove shimmered in a faint glow as the hexagonal shapes appeared and faded. Gabriel drew a throwing knife and killed the cashier that attended his line, he drew his knives and charged into the panicking crowd of people, he cut and slashed and stabbed at the blurring figures, blood gushing from fresh wounds and spattering up onto his face. Suddenly he found himself with a boot on a man's skull, he was pushing into him and slowly grinding his head into the tile, most of the people were cowering in corners and behind objects in the hope he wouldn't find and kill them, none of them could leave because the blizzard had trapped them all inside. As Gabriel's attacks renewed he noticed a single girl standing in the middle of the station, she didn't look scared and was standing perfectly still with her arms outstretched. Gabriel didn't pay the girl any heed at the moment however, he decided he'd leave her for later so he could chat.
Gabriel shoved the knives back into their sheathes and drew his short sword from his back, he started to carve through swathes of people, he tried new and interesting ways of killing them, he cut one man's back open and shoved the blade into his exposed spine, he cut one man clean in half and laughed as he fell to the ground in two pieces while blood spouted from him like a fountain. After awhile the only two people left were himself and the girl, who was still standing where she'd been with her arms outstretched, now her body was bathed in blood and her blue dress was now a deep crimson. Gabriel sat down on a heap of bodies and breathed in the potent air, the thick smell of blood and death filled his nostrils, he took his soda and took a deep swig before speaking.
"So little one, why is it that you show no fear? Is it you don't fear death? And why is it you just stand there with your arms outstretched even after I drenched you in blood?"
The girl put her arms down but didn't speak.
"Little one?" Gabriel got up and walked over to her, he looked her in the eyes with a confused look on his face. The girl was probably around 20, quite young in Gabriel's time frame, but anything was young compared to him.
The girl looked up and hugged him. Gabriel was a little surprised by the outburst.
"Little one, what do you think your doing?" Gabriel pushed the girl away from him and she fell to the ground.
"Don't think I'll show you compassion, I simply let you live out of curiosity, don't believe for a second that I've taken some kind of a liking to you." Gabriel chuckled a little.
The girl got to her feet slowly and walked over to him again and again she hugged him.
Gabriel sighed a little. "Little one why do you persist? I told you, I have no compassion."
Gabriel took a syringe and slide it into her neck, he caught her as she passed out and picked her up.
'We'll talk again once you awaken, and then we'll see why you behave this way.'
Gabriel's eyes turned gold again and he wrapped the girl in his coat, he shut the lights off and locked the doors to the station as he headed home.
