Summary: Two months have past since Jim Kirk and Commander Spock had been kidnapped and rescued. They are taking the Ambassadors from New Vulcan and two other planets to a Conference on Ardana, as they are applying for membership to the Federation. An attempted kidnapping both on New Vulcan and on Ardana reveal who was assisting the Excalbians, but why? On top of all this, Leonard McCoy and Montgomery Scott with the help of Nyota Uhura and Jim Kirk are planning a wedding for the end of the 2263 year. How will Jim Kirk handle this as well as the crew finding out about the babies? Will he loose the best communications officer in the fleet when she finds love with one of the Ambassadors? Rated M for sexy times.

***Note*** This is a continuation of Enemies at the Gates in the Bastans Universe. I have greatly played with the timeline on some events to have it fit, i.e. Alt Universe. So we are still in 2263, but it is now two months later. Almost time for babies. I plan to have another story after this one. Not sure if there will be more than three or just three. We will see.

Chapter One

It had been two months since the attack by Komack and Jim Kirk and Spock were adjusting to running the ship with the extra abilities they have. Well, more Jim Kirk than Spock as his species was already Telepathic and Empathic to an extent. Jim found that like Spick, he could not be the touchy feely person that he was before. Touching his crew or anyone other than Spock sent him into mental and emotional overload. They still had not told the crew that he was pregnant and in a few more months there would be two new members on board. He was starting to show and had taken to wearing larger shirts to try and hide the pregnancy. Soon it wouldn’t matter as he now looked look like he was five months instead of two and a half. Since he had three less months on his pregnancy then the average human woman, he was getting bigger faster. He felt fat and ugly. Spock on the other hand was extremely appreciative of his widening waistline. He made love to him every night and gave him a thorough going over each time. He kissed every inch of him and always told him that he was beautiful and thanked him for giving him kits. Not that he would ever complain and tell him to stop. Give up that good lovin’? Not on your life. He had never been so emotionally and physically satisfied before. Being Empathic and Telepathic was a real bonus on the love making, especially when you love the person you are with. Jim was jerked rudely out of his thoughts when Uhura spoke to him.
“Captain, we are receiving a call from Starfleet.”

“On screen, Lieutenant.”

He sat up straighter as Admiral Pike's image came on screen. “Captain Kirk.”

“Admiral Pike, sir. What can we of the Enterprise do for you today?”

“You will need to pick up a group from Betazed, New Vulcan and Andoria. There is a conference on Delta IV. Ardana is seeking admittance into the Federation.”

“Yes, sir. We will head and get the parties from the specified planets.” He told Pike. ‘What does Ardana have that we would bring them into the Federation, Spock?’

‘They have Zenite.’

‘Ah, they are the only planet that currently has the ore.’

‘Correct, it would be a great boon to agriculture as it can cure agricultural plagues, as it is the only known cure at this time.’

‘Pity we did not have any during Tarsus.’  Jim gave a mental sigh.

“Good, you will need to provide security for the Ambassadorial groups while on planet.”

“Understood sir. How long are we slated to be there for sir?”

“You are slated for this for three weeks. This should go smoothly as most of the demands are reasonable from the Ardanans. The Ambassadors from Andoria and Betazed are waiting on New Vulcan with the Ambassadors that they are sending. Once the conference is down, you will return them there and they will have transport taking them back to their planets.”

“Yes, sir. We will adjust course for New Vulcan.”

“Very good Captain.” Pike cut the transmission.

Jim sighed as his back gave a twinge. There was nothing else he could do. He noticed that looks he had been getting from the crew and he was going to have to let them know. Especially if they had to go on missions and they wondered why Spock would be going down more and more without him. He got up, “Mr. Spock will you come with me in my ready room? Sulu you have the conn. Make sure we are on course for New Vulcan.”

“Aye, sir.” He set the course and then moved to the Captain’s chair.

**********

Jim and Spock entered his ready room. Jim sighed in pleasure when he felt Spock message the area that was twinging moments ago. “God, I love your hands more and more everyday. They are magic.”

“Indeed, I heard what you were thinking when we were on the bridge. If you wish to tell the crew, then I abide by your wishes. This may be for the best, I too noticed the looks you were receiving. There are many rumors circulating amongst the crew. Nyota and Doctor McCoy brought them to my attention.”

“Really? What are they?” He asked as he sat down in his chair. Spock the seat in front of his desk before continuing.

“Fourteen point two percent of the crew think you are dying but don’t want to tell them. Thirty nine point three percent feel you are growing your own clone in you that when it emerges will kill you and help whoever experimented on you take over Starfleet. Thirty six point four percent feel you have a parasite in you that is slowly killing you as it feeds off you. Six point six percent do not have an opinion one way or the other and the remaining three point five percent know the truth.”

Jim’s eyebrows raised at this information. “What the hell? I am dying in almost all of the rumors.”

“Indeed, we have a very morbid crew.”

“I will have to now. Just to stop these crazy rumors. Just not sure how much to tell them. Not sure how they didn’t find out about the bonding while we were on New Vulcan.”

“Indeed, though we did not talk about it.”

“True. Will have to tell them the whole truth. I will have to send out a ship wide email. No way in hell am I doing this over the ship communication system.”

“Indeed, that would not be wise.”

“Yes, dear I know. I will write up an message and have you double check it for me. Ugh, now I am hungry.” Jim frowned when his stomach rumbled.

“What would you like, T’hy’la?” Spock asked as he walked over to the replicator.

“Mmm, plomeek soup and saltines.” Jim rubbed his stomach when he felt one of the twins kick. Spock brought him his food and sat next to him while he ate it. He set the bowl to the side and wiped his mouth on the offered napkin. “You are the best mate ever.” He leaned over and kissed his cheek.

Spock’s cheeks lite with a green tinge. “Come, it is time we return to our duties.”

He sighed, “You’re right. Help me up.” Spock helped him from his chair and they headed back to the bridge. “I will do the notice while we are heading back to New Vulcan, it’s still early in our shift so I will have plenty of time. Good thing we were close.”

“Indeed,” Spock said and headed back to his station.
