It's not consciousness, but it's not the muffled, dark oblivion of unconsciousness either. It's more like the twilight in between slipping either down into nothingness or burbling back up to the familiar brightness and sharp pains of wakefulness. Some out there outside is whispering...reminding him how much it's going to hurt when he wakes up. Reminding him of a world where the is no Stevie and where even his real name is a buried memory, courtesy of his work and the FLAG foundation.
This...doesn't feel right. It's...self-pity? That's new.
He's in a car. His hands are not on the wheel. They are locked to his sides. The car is racing at fantastic speeds.

KITT - his partner for the last 4 years since becoming Knight. KITT's not a human, but he's real. Sarcastic. Smart. Every inch the daredevil and show-off he is. Only one curve in the road to taking KITT out for victory beers after a case. KITT's a car - but not this car.
He's in a car. His are hands locked to his sides. The car is racing at fantastic speeds. He has no idea where he's going and the doors are locked...
