He knew it was a matter of time that something like this would happen… he just didn't expect a car crash would be enough to make him feel like this… feel near death. To Benjamin Kirby Tennyson, everything was blackness. The 16 year-old boy seemed to be floating in a vast emptiness, bigger than space itself. All of thoughts and emotions were still with him, but he couldn't feel his body. Any movement he made, he didn't feel at all, so he had to look at the limb to make sure it was there.

"This is really ridiculous," Ben said to himself, surprised that he still had his voice in this emptiness. "I wanna know what's going on, I hate being kept in the dark! Literally…."As he said this, he began, in way, to dematerialize. He tried desperately to make it stop, but it was useless. He then tried to scream, but no sound came out….

Then he appeared, panting, in the middle of a bright white hospital room. It was at that moment that he noticed that he was wearing a bright, white hospital gown. He also noticed that is 16 year-old cousin, Gwen, was asleep in a chair next to a bed. He, then, turned slowly to see who was on the bed and jumped in surprise and shock to find that it was him in that hospital bed, all scratched, bruised and... broken.

"What… the… HELL?" he exclaimed. He was surprised he didn't wake Gwen, considering how loud he thought his voice sounded. Then suddenly his hospital room door opened to reveal his 16-year-old girlfriend, Julie. Gwen awoke suddenly, as if she was waiting for Julie to arrive. Then, out of no where, Julie broke down into uncontrollable sobs and Gwen and Ben rushed to immediately to her side.

Gwen hugged Julie tightly while tears ran down her own face, saying, "It's okay, Julie, I'm scared for him too. But he'll pull through, he always has the strength to pull through."

"Guys I'm fine!" Ben said, desperately trying to hug Julie and Gwen, but for some weird reason, he couldn't touch them. His hands seemed to go right through them, as though he were a ghost."What? No! That's not fair, I need to comfort them!" he cried. It was then that he fully understood what was going on; he was in a coma… and he was having an outer body experience….
