The Black Guardian rescued the [[Fifth Doctor]] and [[Abby (The Judgement of Isskar)|Amy]] from an [[Ice Warrior]] ship which was plunging into a sun. According to Amy, he was not meant to get involved in their search as the [[Grace]] told her.

After that encounter, the Guardian took them to many places but they could not find the fifth segment. The Doctor realised the Guardian was being methodical in his search; they could find the fifth segment by being heedless of order, their destination controlled by chaos. The Guardian sent the Doctor and Amy on their way and followed them. In [[9th century]] [[Sudan]], he inserted himself into the time stream and became part of the events. As Lord Cassim Alibaba, he evaded taxes to fix the [[Djinni]]'s warp drive which needed gold, (although platinum or plutonium would have been quicker) to create the device needed. This was the fifth segment of the Key to Time. This evasion brought the unknown weapon, [[White Guardian|the embodiment of law]] in the region, to collect the tax. In the confusing welter of events, the Doctor and Amy were able to escape with the Key.

Stranded in | Stranded in 20th century Sudan, he was a shadow of his former self, unable to become what he once was. When the Doctor became trapped on the [[Teuthoidian]] ship, he heard a voice on intra-ship communications which he thought was [[Romana II]]'s and sent a telepathic communication to her 'answer phone'. The voice was [[Astra of Atrios|President Astra]]'s, a double of Romana. Romana received the Doctor's answer and found [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] in hyperspace. The TARDIS took her to some of its recent destinations, Mars and 20th[[File:Black_Guardian.jpg|thumb|The Black Guardian in this timeline. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Time & Time Again (comic story)|Time & Time Again]]'')]] century Sudan, where she found the Black Guardian, who led her to believe that he knew where the Doctor was. By the time she realised this wasn't true it was too late. He had rejuvenated with the power of the sixth segment: Romana herself. Trying to achieve his final goal, the Black Guardian used the gathered freedom fighters to stop the White Guardian's Teuthoidian horde from getting the Key, locking the two Guardians in opposing balance once again. At that moment the Grace reappeared and sent the two of them back to howling void, to continue their eternal struggle. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Chaos Pool (audio story)|The Chaos Pool]]'') | ||
