Herculean Tasks - Beta Timeline
by SaturnianDreamer
The year is 2261. The conditions surrounding Commander Seth Goddard's demotion don't add up. With hints of Sol System-wide corruption in the United Populated Planets and a government conspiracy hitting close to home, how is he to make a difference when he is "grounded" as a teacher at the Starcademy military school on the outer rim? Of course things get even more complicated when his lifelong mentor, James Davenport, requests a favor. So. Expose a government conspiracy, be a champion for marginalized students, protect his mentor's daughter, and teach a band of misfit kids while operating under the radar with the hopes of getting back into space by the end of it all. Simple, right?The BETA timeline: A version of the show following the evolution of Davenport and Goddard, influenced by their Alpha timeline selves, against the backdrop of government conspiracy.(No need to read the Alpha timeline to understand the Beta.)
