Finalist in the Deadly Sins contest. The true story of scientist whose sins changed our world. This is a fictional portrayal of real people and real events (though the dates may not be entirely accurate). [I'm well aware that one of the characters has the same name as I do -- it honestly was her name. Can't change history.]

In a world where people have lost their will to live, a war rages between the present and the future. One side fights to enslave the world and keep it under his absolute control, the other fights to restore and liberate the world while also finding a new place to survive. As part of the Beta Team, Ophelia was used to going into that future and bringing back the things that kept the ruler of the world empowered. What she didn't know was why, and she didn't care. Just like everyone else, she never thought, she never felt, she only completed one task to move on to the next, and did only as she was commanded. Until she came back different. When Ophelia regained her will, she was terrified of what would happen if anyone discovered her secret. She knew that IF they ever found out she would be sent to one of the many centers around the world designed to keep humans from having any ambition, creativity, or instinct to live.
