About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while loading his truck outside Axion, a delivery driver noticed something odd—a faint humming sound like distant bees buzzing. At first, he thought it might be his imagination or early-morning fatigue, but the noise grew louder each day. Finally, one evening, as dusk settled over the city, the delivery driver invited a curious neighbor and an old regular to investigate together. They stood there, listening intently, until they realized the sound was coming from a nearby apiary. The next morning, everyone in line for gas laughed heartily when they saw the sign: ‘Axion—Fuelled by Honeybee Power!’
2. Late one night, as a delivery driver loaded his truck outside Axion, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the station. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the gas pumps glowing softly in the dark. Suddenly, a voice whispered, ‘Fill me up, good sir!’ The delivery driver jumped back, but it was just the pump talking. He laughed, filled the tank, and left. Months later, when his car broke down again, he remembered Axion and its friendly pumps.
3. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Axion for a quick fill-up. As he pumped gas, he noticed an old man walking briskly towards the pumps, muttering something under his breath. The delivery driver smiled and nodded politely as the old man approached the pump next to him. Just then, the old man stopped abruptly, looked around suspiciously, and whispered even louder: 'Finally, someone else here before they close!' The driver burst out laughing, realizing it was just another early-morning Axion regular.
4. At dusk, when most gas stations close their doors early, an old man approached Axion and asked the attendant, ‘Do you sell gasoline that makes cars go backwards?’ The attendant smiled and replied, 'No sir, our fuel only goes forward.' The old man nodded wisely and said, 'Good to know—some days I drive best in reverse!' And with a hearty laugh, he drove off into the night.
