POLLUX • Doctor Who

POLLUX

Have you ever been so lonely, that you felt like nothing and nobody in the whole universe could understand the nagging pain in your chest? Have you ever fought to stay quiet when the sobs break through your body, and the tears drown you in sorrow? Have you ever watched your loved ones pass right before your eyes, without the ability to change it?

Ophelia Pandora, the impossible girl.
If you looked close enough, stared through her eyes that seemed to be filled with all of the galaxies you could think of, and you saw her soul.. her twisted and broken soul, you'd truly understand what it felt like to be alone.

Many many years ago, long before civilisation was formed on planets like the earth, there was a star that shone brighter than any other. Lavone. On this star sat four beings, four powerful souls. Darius, Diana, Aletrix, and Holova. If they were alive to this day, their powers would be craved and feared by every other living thing in this universe. They were gods, messiahs, everything to believe in and despise at the same time. They were the creators of the stars that you can see today. Burning and illuminating stars that spark up the infinite dark abyss above you. But they were lonely, bored. And so they decided to create a planet they called Pollux, a name that would later be given to one of the brightest stars today.

Their children, people of Lavone, were gifted with the cunning and strength of the gods. They were technologically advanced, they colonies and built the most powerful empire within this universe. This also meant that they were the biggest target of all the other empires, along with allies of many.

Pollux was destroyed, the gods were assassinated, and the threat was gone. But the soul of a royal baby had lived on, fought for its life as it travelled with hopes of finding the one man that the legends and folktales spoke of, the daughter of Diana. Ophelia.

She had seen him travel through time and space, save lives yet somehow always also destroying them. He was a curse of fortunate destruction. Ophelia had always managed to incarnate a body right in time to be able to grow up and meet the doctor, but every time she got close enough to meet him he slipped away. With every new life form she took, she forgot who she was. All of her dreams and experiences, forgotten, washed away in the sand. One step closer to becoming a human with every person she became. He noticed her, lots of times he had noticed her, but every time that he saw her she did not see him. It was like two large magnets pulled them apart from each other. When they needed each other the most, they slipped from each other's grasps. Yet every time he saw someone with those dark blue eyes filled with stars and constellations, it was like he knew what was ahead of him.

A friend of Rose Tyler's, a patient of Martha's, a waitress at a cafe in the middle of London 1978, someone he kept seeing over and over again. But he couldn't put his mind on why. Every time, he forgot about it. He could rush to the TARDIS to find out, but forget the second he stepped inside of his trustworthy time machine and friend.

But one day, while taking Amelia Pond to see a marvellous library on earth in 2024, she's there. Working as a librarian. But she has no idea who the wild man with a strange police box is.
