Guardians to the TimeLords

Prologue

In the time before Rassilon, Gallifrey was run by a woman, known as the great mother, a pythia. There had been many Pythia in the history of Gallifrey; all were female and the embodiment of fertility. They were also devoutly superstitious. The structure of Gallifrey mirrored Rome, they had slaves and poor, while the rich and chosen had food and luxury.

In this time was another race; they were dragon like, with great wings, claws that could shred easily and jaws that had the power of immense pressure. Their name was lost in time having being the slave to the Pythia for eons. They were only known as the Guardians. They were the Pythia's special army almost like her royal guard. An entire planet of them at her beck and call. Out of the Guardians a chosen one was picked. He would be the Pythia's personal bodyguard and protect her. With her always. The chosen one would be sent to Gallifrey at a young age to join the schools. To learn etiquette. For the Guardians could also change into a bi-pedal form, so they would look like the other Timelords. In this way they became her spies, to find the heretics.

So it was that a Guardian was chosen. His gold scales shining like the ever-burning star. His other form, a mysterious man, with long black hair in a ponytail wrapped in a gold ribbon down his back. Tan skin and gold eyes that seemed to look into your soul.

He was sent to school with others, he was seen as a slave but the property of the Pythia. He could not be harmed….well seen to be anyway. But none of the fellow students would talk or acknowledge him. He was the outcast, the one never to be talked to. Not all followed the rules though. It was here that this Guardian met Rassilon, with him was two others called Omega and Theta. Though Theta was his nickname it would take the guardian time to learn his other.

Rassilon did not believe in how they were treated, thinking all Slaves should be freed and food for all. They helped each other through their years as students. They became great friends and made a pact with one another, that if one needed them, they would do all they could to help.

Years later the Guardian was at his place with the Pythia. It was then she started the time travel program. It was to be headed by Omega. The Guardians themselves could travel in time, but seconds only into the future, making them seem super fast when they needed. Omega stared his experiments, Rassilon and Theta by his side. It was as they were nearing a breakthrough that Rassilon learned the true nature of this generations Pythia, she wanted the ability to travel through time to wipe out all uprisings in the past, and form the future as she saw fit. So it was then that Rassilon formed the resistance and got ready to overthrow the Pythia. Rassilon came to the Guardian asking for his help in this, to let them be able to get close. He would pay heavily for this. He got his people behind Rassilon's Resistance but one, the guardians brother who was jealous of him being the chosen one, told the Pythia, it was too late for her to do much, but it was enough. With her death she cursed the Timelords with sterility. It would take years to find this out. Gallifrey celebrated as all was brought equal. But it was marred with sorrow. Omega created a black hole called the "eye of harmony" which would power the Tardis's that had been built. But he died in its fiery explosion. He left behind a very powerful device that was called the "hand of Omega" in his honor. Rassilon was sworn in as the new ruler, which brought on the golden age, he got rid of the Dead zone, which had been a huge coliseum of sorts. It had no walls but it was a death trap for all who were placed there. It was for entertainment watching people die. As I said, like Romans.

Theta by this point was tired of all the politics and backstabbing. So thinking it best to get the Hand of Omega to a safe place. So Theta being his usual self nicked a Tardis and with his granddaughter Susan, left Gallifrey. This had taken several years to this point. And the guardians? They swore their allegiance to Rassilon. The Chosen one became his guardian and the guardian to them all. The others retuned to their home world and would come when needed. As a gift Rassilon gave them a powerful shield to cover their planet in dire need. They dubbed it the Shield of Rassilon. The chosen one was merged with a little of the Time Vortex that controlled Tardis's, this enabled him to travel through time as an enforcer as it were. To mark this on his shoulder appeared the Seal of Rassilon. When in dragon form it would be black, in his Timelord form it would look like pure liquid gold.

The chosen one stayed by Rassilon's side until his death, Rassilon told the chosen one a secret that he told no other, a secret defense system for Gallifrey. But it must only be used in a time of need.

The great Rassilon was dead, they deemed it that no one ruler would have power, so the council of 12 was formed, with a president only residing over them, but would heed their council. The new council did not like Theta, now known as The Doctor, roaming though time and branded him a renegade. The Guardian was demanded to bring him in with the hand of Omega, but he would not. So he returned to his home world. But vowed if they needed him he would return.

Time passed once more, the Timelords lived up to their name. But soon another power rose to challenge them. The Dalek's created by the evil scientists Davros. He sought to take over the galaxy and soon they found the rudimentary of time travel. The Time war began. The Timelords summoned the guardians…but they never came. President Romana called and called…still they never came. Time lords, not used to fighting for so long came to the brink of destruction. One last desperate act was triggered. To save the Universe, Destroy the Dalek's at the cost of the Timelords. So it was done The Doctor pressed the switch and became the only survivor. And the guardians now labeled traitor and the chosen one hated by the Doctor for not answering their call………..Time will tell.
