When I opened my eyes I was greeted by the sight of a hospital room. Looking around, I noticed how I'm in the gown with a cast covering my small elevated left leg, only a few minor fractures and it seems to be set right. Other than that nothing else seems to be wrong.
'Wait that's fucking amazing, my mind is moving at incredible speeds. I can already tell just from my earlier thoughts that I'll be healed up in less than 2 months. Faster with my system. Nzt is the shit. System, show me my skills then my current stats please.'
…
'System'
…
'Fuck, do I really have to speak out loud like a crazy person. Fuck. SYSTEM. Damn it.'
I finally speak out in a whisper.

I couldn't help it and started laughing like a mad man.
'Hahahahahah, I'm fucking here and with everything I got from NZT I'm much more OP than I thought I'd be. I basically have instant mastery in everything, a mind like a super computer and the instincts of a fucking beast. While my stats are lacking now, I already have plenty of ideas on how to get physical Op no-'
I was broken out of my thoughts by the door to my room being opened. A young girl with shoulder length black hair and a light tan, maybe around 13. She walked into the room with slow steps, keeping her head down, exuding sadness.
As she was slowly making her way over, I had already concluded who she was before she took her second step, young Mia.
When she reached me she didn't even look up as she took my hand in hers as she started to speak and cry.
"I miss you J, I wish you would wake up already. I I don't know what to do without you."
She started to lay her head on the back side of my hand she was holding but I moved my hand from her grasp and cupped her cheek in my hand. Moving her head to look me in the eyes. I said with a small smile.
"Missed you to Mia, even when it was you I was dreaming about."
She then dove into a hug.
~5 minutes later ~
After a long and somewhat painful hug from Mia she ran away saying she would go get the rest of the family. Which is fine by me as I still need to organize some of my thoughts and go through this body memory in detail.
In this world I was born to a close friend of the patriarch of the Toretto family but they both died in a mugging and I was taken in by the torettos instead of going into the 'system'. That was around a year ago now and my relationship with the entire family is really good, well except Jakob. He and I are apparently very competitive with each other. Not to the point where we dislike each other or anything but to us, everything is a competition, maybe because we are the same age. Which leads to why I was in a coma in the first place, we were competing to see who could climb a tree faster and in my excitement at winning I fell off the branch I was on and, here we are.
Unfortunately, other than running and climbing I don't have any other real skills to get from my memory. I already had my plans set when I came up with the world setting so now I just need to start working, which for the next two months is just to read and watch about skills I'll need. I'll probably start with car related things then move my way up to things like hacking and programming. Wait.
'Hey system, did I get anything like a starter pack?'
A screen appeared in my mind saying.
[Yes host. Items are in inventory.]
'Inventory'
[inventory:
2x +10 stat point card
10x recovery pills
2x human asset summons]
'This is great, use both stat cards on luck and explain how the human asset summons works.'
[ The summons are randomly pulled from one of the many different movies and shows you have watched, even video games. As an asset they are essentially a tool to be used but they are extremely loyal and always will be, so host should treat them well. Their are a two different types of assets currently:
Technology asset: anyone from your movies, shows or games you know with tech skills be they great or mediocre. Ex: wade(Kim possible), nine ball(Oceans 8) or Lester(GTA V)
Hitman asset: anyone from your movies, shows or games you know with hitman skills/experience be they are great or mediocre. Ex: John Wick, Agent 47(hitman movies) or joe (looper)
The biggest difference is whether you want a field agent/person security or tech support/security.
Assets will need housing once summoned along with cash to purchase tools beyond the standard Glock for hitman assets and laptop for tech assets.
There is also one more asset type that can be unlocked in the future.]
'Ok this will make things much easier. I'll prepare for a year then head to my new crew, they just don't know it yet.'

6 people rushed into the hospital room. 1 doctor and nurse, they were just informed that their patient for the last week was now awake by the sister of the patient. Thankfully, they were just outside the door Talking to the rest of the family. The others were said family of a man that looked to be in his early 30s. In front of him were two boys, the taller and older looking of the two wore a tank top with a jumpsuit on but tied around his waist, showing off some developing muscles, probably to take attention away from his bald head. The other boy had short curly hair and was wearing a white t shirt and black jeans. And everyone including the doctor and nurse were being led by a young Mia wearing a hoodie and leggings.
Everyone crowded around the bed and while the nurse started checking machines the doctor asked some simple questions to see how the patient was responding, when everything looked good the hospital staff left the family and the patient alone but said they will only have a few minutes before they need to go do some scans and more x rays to see how much longer he'll need to stay.

After the staff left Mia immediately climbed into my and hugged me tightly. The rest of the family soon followed after her. After what felt like an extremely long hug to me because I'm still running most of my abilities even now, Constantly thinking. I really have to praise NZT and the creators of limitless.
After the hug was over and they stood back around me they started asking about how I was and if I'm in any pain and other questions. I kinda just answered them all on auto pilot, making sure it seemed like I was focusing on the conversation while thinking is as simple as breathing now. As of now I don't really feel much of a connection with them, even after going through my new memories it still didn't change how I felt. I think it was because even though when going through it, it's almost like I'm reliving the memories but at the same time also still like watching a movie, so I'll have to be more focused on actually living with them if I want to build any real connections. We'll see how it goes. Anyway.
'System are there any missions available?'
…
'System?'
This piece of shit. Fuck what a-
Oh.
*sigh*
If it wasn't for my new mental capabilities I'd be pulling my hair out.
'Missions?'
[Missions:
None. ]
'System can you tell me all your functions?'

After I focused back into the conversation. I noticed it was time for them to leave. The doctor did as well because he came in right then and said that visitation time is over for the day. After some arguing, and me saying it'll help me recover in a very serious and somewhat demanding tone, the doc finally caved and Mia was allowed to stay the night.
After the tests and getting some x rays done, I made it back to my room but I was fucking tired. I knew it was because I didn't have enough to eat but sadly for me I woke up after dinner and they only had some nasty ass Applesauce. I mean how do you fuck up apple sauce?
So after a brief chat with Mia, we went to sleep in my bed. And I made sure to set a mental alarm clock for 6:30am. I mean, I'm definitely not going to miss breakfast.
