It was a time of long hair and stealth window escapes at the midnight hour; a time of skipping class, anti-establishment sentiment spewing forth from my foul, juvenile, remorseless mouth. I was mad at the world on the grounds that I felt as though I had been dealt a lousy hand in this life. In my infinite teenage wisdom, I had convinced myself if I could not everything my way, I would set the world ablaze and watch it burn.

The clean and stable life Huck lives with Widow Douglas did not satisfy him, similar to how archetypal heroes often start off unhappy about their environment.
