Gatekeepers
With Evalina, things didn't seem to get any better. She woke up in a cell. But something was different, of course. Firstly, she was on their ship and that was bad enough; secondly, the ship wasn't huge like she imagined. It was very high and the part she was in was round. There was just one cell from what she could see, and it was hers. Of course the technology didn't even compare to what she'd seen over the years with the different types of aliens she met. Oh yeah, now she remembered. She had met more aliens in those 25 years of her life but none was as interesting and troublemaking as the Time Lord. He was different in every way she could think of. But, back to the surroundings, the cell she was in was identical to the room she had been kept in when her mother started to experiment on her. It had black walls, a bed, a small table, and chains and of course if all that wasn't bad enough the bars were invisible but made of electricity that got your life energy when touched. She was smart, she didn't need someone to tell her how dangerous the situation she was in, was.
"Amanda Cavington! Raise your head and bow to his majesty." Evalina's head popped up and looked strangely at the men in front of the cell.
"If you've done your homework, you'd know I won't do that in this life, nor in another." The man who spoke glared with his pitch black and iris-less eyes. However, the other man was quite familiar. Her eyes widened when she figured where she saw him before. The man seemed to catch a glance because he smirked.
"A pleasure to see you again, Amanda." She rolled her eyes, annoyed.
"Why does everyone call me Amanda? Didn't they get that I hate that name?" She mumbled, her legs close to her chest, her head on her knees. The man didn't seem too fazed, though.
"I believe you want to know why you're here." She shrugged.
"I'm more curious how you stopped the disintegrating process. Whenever the ring is placed on someone else's finger other than mine, it goes bang." He nodded.
"Indeed. But don't forget I am a gatekeeper. We made the Time Ring, we control it." She rolled her eyes. She did get that part, but she was still dumbfounded about who these creatures were.
"Why am I here? I remember you said I am the only one who can control the ring yet, you forced me in another dimension in a different time." The man nodded and got his finger closer to one of the bars, making it visible.
"Indeed. I don't know how that happened. The Ring was created by the ones who wanted as much power as the Time Lords. The TARDIS is a genuine creation. It offers so much.
We wanted a toy like that too. We are, in the end, the ones who keep time moving correctly. If there were no gatekeepers, time would go crazy. You, my dear girl, have the power of the gatekeepers in your hands." Evalina didn't look too surprised but she was. She couldn't believe that ring was so important to the stability of time.
"Are there any more rings?" The man shook his head.
"Yours is the only active one. Any ring can be a Time Ring, it just needs activated. Fortunately for us, you're the only one who could do that."
"Fortunately? Don't you want more Time Rings?"He looked down at the girl with an air of superiority.
"No. Gatekeepers aren't that immature. We do know how important time is. Our race was destroyed by the Time Lords a long time ago. They couldn't let anyone have as much power as them. They weren't as nice and correct as you may think. They unleashed the Time War. We hid the rings in every corner of the world but they could've never been activated. No one could touch one and still live. But you could, you activated one. Your friend has the most destructive weapon in the world, in his hands." Evalina's eyes widened and she got up and closer to the gatekeeper.
"What do you plan to do next?" He smirked and his eyes looked evil and even blacker than before.
"Get rid of the nuisances. The gatekeepers are still alive. There is no need for you or your Time Lord friend anymore. He will die first and you…" He stopped, while Evalina's eyes got even wider if possible. "…you will watch him give his last breath and then, we'll kill you too. You are precious, though. We'll keep your body in case something inscrutable pops up." She backed off slowly while the man walked away, into the darkness of the ship.
