In [[1996]], Prisoner Zero was a captive in an Atraxi extra-[[dimension]]al prison. When a [[Time Field|crack in the universe]] opened into [[Amelia Pond]]'s bedroom wall, Prisoner Zero escaped through to Amelia's house in [[Leadworth]]. It hid in a room in Amelia's house, placing a [[perception filter]] on the room's door so it would not be found. It hid on [[Earth]] for twelve years, watching Amelia grow up. It sometimes ventured into the village, posing as comatose people in [[Royal Leadworth Hospital]] whom it had established a psychic link with, a process that took months. If the person it was copying was dreaming about having someone else with them, Prisoner Zero would appear to be multiple lifeforms touching each other. It was actually one creature with many limbs and orifices. | In [[1996]], Prisoner Zero was a captive in an Atraxi extra-[[dimension]]al prison.

The forms it took were of comatose people. In [[2008]], [[Rory Williams]], who worked at the hospital as a nurse, took pictures of them with his mobile phone, knowing the people he saw shouldn't be up and about. It was during this time that Prisoner Zero established a [[psychic link]] with Amelia (later Amy) Pond. | The forms it took were of comatose people.

Prisoner Zero went to the hospital and killed all the doctors and nurses. It took the form of a woman with two children to fool Amy and Rory, but gave itself away by talking with the woman's voice through a child's mouth. It snarled at Amy and Rory and chased them down the corridors. The Doctor arrived through the window just in time, and revealed his master plan to Prisoner Zero. | Prisoner Zero went to the hospital and killed all the doctors and nurses.

Believing that surrender would mean execution, Prisoner Zero said it was prepared to die in flames with the whole planet. The Doctor suggested Prisoner Zero open another crack to escape, but Zero said the cracks were not its doing, but cracks in the skin of the universe. It taunted the Doctor about his lack of knowledge. ''"The Doctor in the TARDIS doesn't know."'' It added that''"The [[Pandorica]] will open. Silence will fall"''. When cornered by the Doctor, who had given the Atraxi Prisoner Zero's location and pictures of all its previous disguises, it tried to avoid [[Atraxi]] detection by using a psychic connection with Amy to imitate her younger self and the Doctor. The Doctor thwarted this by stimulating Amy's recent memory of Prisoner Zero and forcing it to take on its own form. The Atraxi detected and secured Prisoner Zero, as it gave its final warning: "''Silence, Doctor. Silence will fall''".

Though the cracks in time were negated ([[ | Though the cracks in time were negated ([[TV]]: ''[[The Big Bang]]''), some of the event may have still occurred, as the Doctor in the rebooted universe still chased the Atraxi off the Earth and called them back to scold them, as he did when they threatened to incinerate the Earth with Prisoner Zero before the reboot.
