Title: Inheritance
Author: urbancate
Rating: PC-13
Genre/Warnings: Sci-Fi
Author's Note: Casting by hiddencait
Summary: A world is dying and a family is torn apart. Can any of it be fixed?
Pairings Welcome/Not Welcome: No incest, but otherwise free shipping.

In the late 23rd century, when the seas of Terra rise up to take back the land, few humans are left to witness. Most have decades past moved to colonies on Mars, Venus, or the various terra-formed moons of the Sol system. Only Luna Terra, the first colony, remains un-formed: a sprawling city of silver domes has lit up the pitted face of the moon for longer than before your grandfather's grandfather was born.

The Pacific Ring has been on fire for decades, so the mega quake and resultant flood are no surprise. Scientists have long spelled out the doom of Earth. Of the few thousands who have stuck it out on home, most flee to Luna Terra or beyond.

A handful stay behind.



7 Years Later

Joseph Elliott as played by Adrian Paul




Joseph is not just stubborn, it's possible he wrote the book. When his wife is screaming at him that they have to leave, he plants his feet and he stays. In the new Rockies on the edge of a torn North American continent, he carves out a life much different than the one he knew. See, Joseph is one of the scientists. And he believes in the eventual re-birth as much as he ever did the destruction.

Noah Elliott as played Andrew Lee Potts




On the day of the departure, and long after, Noah is torn. He stays with his father more for the love of Earth and rebellion against his mother than for love of his father. Every night, he looks up to the sky and counts the lights of the people there and tells himself he wouldn't trade the dirt and the rivers and the mountains for any comfort or security they might have.

Elisa Quinn as played by Alexa Davalos




Accidental. Nothing describes Elisa's life better than that one word. And now here she is, stuck on a dying rock with a crazy scientist and his son for company. They saved her life, and she's grateful. She just wishes there was a ship to take her away.

Jacqueline Elliott as played by Amanda Tapping




She tried, she really did, to get Joseph to leave. But when a marriage is already falling apart, why should a husband listen to his wife? So she's made the best of her situation. For a year now, she's been Governor of Luna Terra. Power, and the games of power, suit her just fine.

Cameron Anderson as played by Alexander Skarsgard




Chief of Staff to the Governor. Lover to the Governor. Stirrer of conspiracies and gossip and distrust. Cameron's only agenda is Cameron. Or is it?

Zara Elliott as played by Allison Mack




Like a good and loyal daughter, Zara followed her mother away from Earth, away from doom. All left behind are considered dead. But she looks up to the sky every night, at the blue-green-white-changing face of home, and she wonders.

Brock Janus as played by Adam Baldwin




Brock is a new arrival to Luna Terra. No, not from Earth. From Mars, where he was born. Now he's stirring up trouble and a movement for a return to Earth. Is he crazy, right, or both?
