Darkness

"Lewis lives in a fantasy world," said Doctor Ketchner. "He's been unresponsive to all attempts at treatment."

Doctor Selznek looked at the man strapped to the bed. "You believe that he's a good candidate for the drug? You understand the risks?"

"I think so. The drug will kill or cure him. Either way it will end his delusion of godhood."

Selznek nodded. The man struggled as the needle slid into his arm then relaxed. His eyes became glazed.

Ketchner though he saw a shadow cross Lewis' face. Then he realized that the darkness was actually the world fading to black.
