Time Travel. None of the brainwashed masses know about it. As early as the 1980's scientists have been working on ways to send people back in time to alter fates. I want to say it was January of'92, cold as hell if I remember correctly, when they made their first major breakthrough. The immediate goal was to send an assassin back in time to kill Baby Hitler. This of course, did n't work. You can not kill someone when you go back in time, only alter their fate. I'll be honest. I do n't remember much about my childhood, or how I got into this cell. All that I knew was that now, in the year 2033 Scientists had perfected the art of sending people back in time. 
 
 The government decided to start a program that allowed people to go back in time to change their crimes. Of course, following the rules that you ca n't kill another person, that affected the future as well. Anybody who raped another person was ineligible for this, as it would cause someone in the future to cease to exist. Crimes for Rapists increased almost ten fold and it was almost always a life sentence. If you killed someone in the past you also could not go back and stop yourself, as it would bring someone to life. Other than those rules everything was fair game. 
 
 They grabbed me and brought me to an elevator. It went down so many floors that I could n't keep track. `` It's finally my turn'' I thought. When the elevator finally stopped I was blindfolded and forced to walk around. It was disorienting being forced to walk without being able to see. When the blindfold was finally removed I was in a large room, surrounded by mirrors on all sides. There was a chair in the center, similar to a salon style chair but with a big red button on the left arm. I sat down, took a deep breath and pressed the button. 
 
 Nothing happened. My heart sank. I needed this more than anything. What I assumed to be a body guard of some sort came into the room, he put a blindfold back on me and led me around again. This time was just as bad as the last. I felt handcuffs get wrapped around my wrists. As the blindfold was removed I was able to see that I was standing in what looked like an interrogation room. A small group of men stood on the other side of the table. 
 
 `` You're an interesting one. You know that?'' A man in a large white lab coat shook his head at me. `` Tell me. What do you remember about your crime?'' He paused for a brief moment, not allowing me to answer his question. `` I'm banking on nothing. You see you did n't actually commit any crime. You've committed every crime that has ever been corrected.'' A smile broke on his face whilst the other men in the room gasped. 
 
 `` Your existence is to keep time paradoxes from happening. You see when a crime is committed in the past everything is normal, but when we send someone back in time to stop their former self it creates a ripple in time. Time then has to correct itself, allowing someone else to commit this crime. Time created you for that sole purpose. Had we never tampered with time, you would have never existed.'' He paused to catch his breath. He was obviously excited. I was not. 
 
 `` You leave me no choice then doc. Looks like I'll have to hunt them all down.'' I spoke at him with a snarled face. Everything from my past came flooding into my mind. Every crime `` I'' had committed, it was because of the other criminals, not me. I would find them, all of them, and I would kill them.
