'''Anti-time''' was a substance theorised by the [[Time Lord]]s that would break down the [[Web of Time]]. The [[Antiverse]] was composed of it. | |||

The theory of | The theory of anti-time's existence was discredited until a series of [[anachronism]]s started wreaking havoc on the Web of Time. The Time Lords traced the source to the [[Eighth Doctor]]'s companion [[Charlotte Pollard|Charley Pollard]], who was a living paradox due to being saved from her death on the [[R101]]. Using her as a conduit, [[Lord President|Madam President]] [[Romana]] and [[Celestial Intervention Agency|CIA]] Coordinator [[Vansell]] piloted a [[Time Station]] through her to the [[Antiverse]] -- a universe made of anti-time inhabited by [[Neverperson|Neverpeople]]. | ||

The Time Lords on the ship were infected by anti-time, and set the Time Station to explode. However, the [[Eighth Doctor]] saved Gallifrey by materialising his [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] around the Time Station, thus containing the anti-time explosion. The Doctor and his TARDIS absorbed the anti-time energy released. Both were "infected" by it, and took on the persona of [[Zagreus]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Neverland]]'') | ||
Zagreus was courted by [[Rassilon]] to become his assassin. The TARDIS' outer shell was melted down in [[Rassilon's Foundry]], and Zagreus formed a blade of anti-time, with which Rassilon hoped the Doctor would cut the [[Divergence]] from time. With the help of Charley and the TARDIS' "good side", the Doctor managed to reassert his personality long enough to refuse the offer and hurl Rassilon into the Divergent Universe. The infection was stabilised with pure zero matter. The Doctor, however, was forced to travel into a [[Divergent Universe]] to keep the Anti-Time and the Zagreus personality under control.
