Uninvited Guest (comic story)

Summary
In celebration of another successful "game" with the lesser beings of the universe, a small group of Eternals gather for a grand ball. One of the artifacts peppering the ballroom is a clock, frozen at the moment of the death of the world it was taken from.

Sitting, with a mocking look on his face, at the head of the table is the Doctor.

Quickly identified as a Time Lord, the Doctor calmly tells the gathered Eternals of the impact of their "games". He outlines the sad history of the world they just played with, how it ended in terror and atomic fire. Although he's dismissed by the chief Eternal, the Doctor states that he's brought a gift in celebration of their deeds: a crystalised fragment of the Time Vortex. He drops it casually and stands unfazed at the heart of the storm the crystal's shattering creates. The ballroom in tatters, the Doctor walks off, commenting that his gift is a life: a single, mortal life.

As he departs, the clock starts ticking, ticking away the moments of the now mortal lives of the former Eternals.
