#149 Lies

The Truth Obscured

This is set at the end of Limitless when Eddie tells Carl Van Loon that he no longer needs the NZT. I frankly found this kind of ridiculous because of the obvious effects of quitting NZT. So, tada, I decided to write a story about it.

~8~8~8~8~8~8~

Of course they were lies. There's no way I would be able to wean myself off of the NZT, nor would I ever want to find a reason to get off of it. It's everything to me now. I know what I'm doing with my life because of it. I'm able to help humanity because of this impossible drug. And that's still what my goal is: helping people to the best of my ability. But only because of NZT-48 am I able to get to a place where I can help people. The lies are for a reason, it seems.
