~ Thoughts to each other ~

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Here I lay alone inside a crumbling hut, as I wait for the return of my T'hy'la, the F'iveisea took him away yet again. I worry about him, as I can't feel him, can only feel Chakotay through our link, since he is pregnant, one of my two husbands, two husbands you ask? Yes you heard right, I couldn't chose between either Chakotay or Tom, let me tell you the story of how I Tuvok of Vulcan scored, as Thomas would say, Commander Chakotay of Dorvan V and Thomas Eugene Paris, it wasn't easy believe me, though I would say that it was worth the battle, wouldn't you?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

It started when we got stranded in DQ, most would say that it was the worst bit of luck you could have but not Thomas or for that matter Chakotay or Tay as Thomas calls him, you see Thomas was serving time in the prison colony in Auckland, New Zealand. I've heard that New Zealand is a beautiful country, but Thomas didn't go there for a vacation in Auckland, he was sent there as a traitor to the Federation, eight years in maximum security, his father swapped his eighteen months of minimum for the heavier sentence, he had been caught making a run for the Maquis.

So when I joined the Maquis as a spy for Starfleet, Thomas had already been incarcerated, I had been with the Maquis for nearly a year before I figured out that Thomas had been set up and there were plans for myself also. I didn't know who the culprit was but I had my suspicions but didn't have the evidences to back up my claim, it turned out I was right at the time, excuse me I'm jumping ahead of myself.

I knew that when the Caretaker, as we called it, pulled us out of the Badlands and into the Delta Quarant, I knew that my friend Kathryn Janeway would come to my rescue and come she did but unfortunately through her actions, we were unable to return home and my bond to T'Pel disappeared, once our chance of returning home went up in flames.

So once I found some time to sort out my options, my choices were narrowed by my promise to T'Pel, that if I find myself without her during a long period of time to chose another mate but the promise I made to her was that my next mate had to be male, so my choice was limited but it didn't concern me, since I had already chosen two and could chose between them, but my real dilemma was that Chakotay distrusted me for my deception to him and got even worse after leaving him out of the chain of command, Thomas's mistrust of everyone, including Chakotay, who I later found out had been lovers while in the Maquis. I understand his reasons for staying clear of men, after finding out about his home life and his stay in prison, when I had to meld with him among a few other things such as his love for me and Chakotay both.

To say that Thomas was easy is an understatement, he ran a mile from any form of relationships apart from Harry Kim. Thomas would have a meal with me once in awhile, it wasn't till Chakotay and I found him after an attack from the crew, that we all formed an uneasy relationship, which got stronger over time, after the attack of my Thomas. I found myself spending more time with both men together, letting the crew get use of seeing us together, both Chakotay and I knew that Tom was worried about his past coming between us, he was worried about what Janeway would say, since the rumors had spread that she was going to help me through my Pon Farr and that Chakotay and her were entering a relationship, which got me to thinking that the crew needed to do more than gossip and hurt our Thomas, so between Chakotay and I, we set up the cross training to give them something else to think about, other than gossiping and making plans on how to hurt our Thomas even more.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Shaken from his muse, as the door to the hut creaked opened, Tuvok watched with rage, letting it build up within him, as they shove Thomas into the tiny smelly hut, quickly getting to his feet, moving with swiftness that belied his own pain, to the pale and battered naked body of his mate, fighting the rage that had burnt up to a red hot rage inside, as he gathered Tom's broken body to his, sending calming thoughts to smooth Tom's tortured mind, they weren't just satisfied with raping his body, they had to rape his mind as well, sending a message over to his worried husband who was still on board Voyager looking for them.

 ~ Chakotay, how far away are you? ~

~ We going as fast as we can, but . . . * Sob *. . . . damnit. . . * sob *  sorry love. ~

~ I understand T'hy'la, I suggest that you hand over the bridge, you're not stable to be on the Bridge working. ~

Feeling a wave of love over the link, Tuvok knew that Chakotay would do as he asked.

~ I'm on a break now, Tem and the Doctor threaten to sedate me, if I didn't do as I was told. ~

~ I doubt that Tem would have threaten you love, he has too much respect for you and admires the hell out of you. ~

~ He did and he loves Sam, not me. ~

~ I said admires you, not loves you, Thomas and I give you all the love you need. ~

~ You do indeed. How are Tom and the babies? ~

~ Not good, he has surrounded the twins in a bubble field, they are safe, for now, but our Angel is not. ~

~ Damn it, I can't feel him at all. Tuvok why can't I feel him? Can you feel him? ~

Tuvok tried to send all his reassurances to his absence, lover along with his thoughts, ~ He's unconscious. I cannot feel him and it worries me, I miss him. ~

~ As do I. ~

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Broken out of his talk, as the door flew opened to reveal the rest of the away team.

B'Elanna sunk down on the ground with a sigh of relief, while Harry hobbled over to the make shift bed sighing as he spied his friend laying in his husband's lap, relief filling his eyes, tension eased away from his body at the mere sight of Tom's broken body, after a day of whatever the F'iveisea did to him. Tuvok was the only one who knew for sure but he was not talking to them much, it was as if he lost his tongue when they were captured, but they knew that he was in contact with Chakotay. Harry thought that it was weird that the F'iveisea only took an interest in Tom.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Greg Ayala and Ken Dalby entered the hut, supporting the Captain between them.

Moving over to the other bed on the other side of the hut laying her down, moving her broken leg gently onto the bed, since Tom was the closest they had to a medic, they had to make do with what Tuvok had learnt through their bond.

Kathryn watched her friend move off the bed with his youngest husband in his arms and laid him down, smoothing his sweat drenched brow as he whimpered in pain, recalling a time when she had hoped to be the one to bonded with a stoic Vulcan but he made a wise and logical choice, choosing Tom and Chakotay as his mates, they rounded each other off perfectly and if she had entered the bond with Tuvok, she would have missed out on Dalby as her mate, the only one without her mate, was B'Elanna, Joe Carey remained behind with the children..

Harry moved over making room for his lover Ayala on the floor, asking, "How far away are they?"

~ Tuvok are you alright? ~

~ Sorry love the others have returned from the gardens. ~

~ Pass along a message to B'El that K'lay wishes her mommy to come home. ~

~ I shall. ~

~ And give yourself and Tom a hug from Shakira and Ali. ~

~ How are the girls holding up? ~

~ Missing their daddy and z''tst, as do I. ~

~ As I miss them and you as well. ~

~I felt a wave of pain before, was that Poocuh? ~

~ It was. I am worried. About him. Can you have a talk to the Doctor, describe Thomas's injuries to him and find out the treatment for him. ~

~ I can tell you right now, he needs to be in sickbay. ~

~ Chakotay, I know but all I have is a med. kit, I managed to hide in my jacket, I do not think a full working sickbay would have fitted. ~

Tuvok heard Chakotay laugh as his though came through, ~ I think you are spending too much time with Tom, T'hy'la and if anyone says Vulcan have no sense of humor, I am pointing you out to them. ~

~ Indeed , you know that Thomas has threatened me with the same thing but has soon found out, that I never show others this side of me, other than my family and in private and soon gave up. So it is a wasted effort T'hy'la. ~

~ Indeed. ~

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

B'Elanna smiled as she witnessed a faint smile from Tuvok, she knew that he was talking to her long time friend Chakotay, god she envy their bond at times like these, wishing she had one with her mate, it had been only three days, since landing on the unnamed planet before they were over powered by the natives and brought to this hellhole, they lingered while waiting for Voyager to return and find them, while they were gathering the much needed supplies. Chakotay had taken the newer bridge crew on a training run, when the away mission went sour, thank god for the link between the Paris men, Chakotay and Tuvok took Tom's last name, since he was the only one among the trio to have one, the crew didn't use it, since it would have added more confusion into the mix but they used it for all their children.

With a smile as she thought of the two beautiful girls the three men fathered, everyone had been shocked to find out after the Pon Farr, that Tom had fallen pregnant; it was not until later they found out, that he was part To'tua, a race that did not have much to do with the Federation and not much was known about them.

B'Elanna had be shocked to find out, that part of who he was had be suppressed by his family, mainly his father.

Tuvok and the Doctor came to the conclusion that Tuvok's Pon Farr had altered the gene that had been suppressed, letting it surface and that the babies were most definitely all of theirs, she knew that had Tom worried that it was only one of theirs, such as his and Tuvok, etc. but Tuvok and the Doctor also conclude that every time Tom become with pregnant, he'd have twins and all would have blond and blue eyes, since that was the common gene in all To'tua even half To'tua were blond and blue eyed of vary shades, which surprised the hell out her, since it was know that brown eyes over powered blue eyed genes, her own son and daughter had her eye colouring even though she wanted one with green eyes like Joe's but the Doc had explained it to her, that all their children would have brown eyes like her.

 Chakotay had told her, that Tuvok and he didn't care, they loved Tom's eyes and hair colouring, he was glad that some of him and Tuvok showed up in the girls, each baby had dimples and they had Tuvok's slanting eyebrows.

They had been together for five years now, B'Elanna remembered the shock that the three had been bonded even before Tuvok entered his Pon Farr cycle, they had two private ceremonies for Tuvok and Chakotay culture and for Tom's it was a public wedding, joining them together in the eyes of the Federation, if they had known what the To'tua joining ceremony was, they would have had the fourth one as well. Both Tuvok and Tom have similar tattoo's on their brows and Chakotay and Tuvok both worn wedding band like Tom's, he designed them and had what he called a gold smith make them for him, when they had shore leave on the planet Urma, 'God I miss the friendlier races, are we fated to keep running into the hostile races out here?'

Glancing over at the pale form of Tom with a worried Vulcan hovering over him, she knew that they needed to get Tom back to Voyager as fast as possible. While out on work detail, if you can call it that, with the others had searched the compound for possible escape routes but with Tom down and Tuvok in pain every time Tom was, meant the they had to be carried out, as well as Janeway who broke her leg during the fight they got into on their first day in the prison, she had taken a fall, as she tried to catch herself, her leg had been kicked out from under her, making her twist further than her leg was meant to go.

Shaken out of her thoughts as she heard the dinner chime go off, nodding to the others that they'd sneak some food back for Tuvok and Tom, if he was awake, Kathryn hobbled over to Tuvok, laying her hand on his board back saying, "We'll bring back some food for the two of you, use the time to clean Tom up and tell Chakotay to see over the children for us."

Tuvok looked up at her, his normal bright eyes were dull and murky looking, "Chakotay has all the children staying with Sam and Neelix, till we come home."

"Even Shakira and Alli?"

"Yes, even our children, everyone is doing everything they can to get us out of this hell, all are pulling double shifts or more."

Patting his shoulder as she looked down at her reclamation project, as Chakotay jokily called Tom.. Kathryn loves Tom like a little brother, she never had and looked out for him even now she still did, joining forces with his husbands to protect him.

Ken watched as his wife talked to Tuvok and stroking Tom's sweat matted hair off his brow, once he would have been jealous of any affection she showed him but he knew that Kathy loved Tom as her brother, while loving him as her husband, but over the time he got to know Paris and they slowly got over any grief they had, actually what he had against Tom.

Moving to her side, wrapping an arm about her waist, saying, "We better move before they close up shop and all the good food taken."

"What good food? God what I wouldn't do for some of Neelix's food right about now." B'Elanna growled.

With his hand firmly clasped within Harry's, Greg moved towards the door, the faster they got into the mess hall, the faster they were out of the main ground and away from Guter and his gang, he didn't trust them as far as he could kick them, he had made an uneasy truce with them after the fight, "Let move it, you know Guter will be on the prowl, he's looking for a new mate for the night and I don't wish to battle him tonight, if he wishes to take one of you."

Licking her lips, Kathryn nodded, "I think it will be wise if I stay here then, I'd slow you down, since it's late."

 Greg nodded saying, "We'll bring back food, Harry I want you to stay and help Tuvok, just in case he tries to hit the hut again."

Harry fumed as Greg tried to pull the 'I'm the big Maquis, listen to me crap' on him but taking one look into his eyes and one touch later, he agreed, he knew going into a relationship with the big man that he was over protected, he didn't mind all that much but he hated to have the others thinking he was totally under his thumb, he hated it when others called him weak, but one look into Gregor's eyes wiped his doubts right away.

"Okay, I'll stay here but tomorrow it's someone else, Deal?"

"Deal, we'll take turns." With that Ayala lead the others out of the hut, heading towards the mess hall, if they didn't need to eat, they wouldn't eat the slop that was offered but they do and so they did.

Ken wrinkled his nose as they entered the room, it smelt of unwashed body and the smell of foul food, "Shit what the hell are they passing off as food tonight?"

B'Elanna held her hand under her nose saying, "Don't think we want to know."

Moving to the long line grabbing trays, Ken and Greg kept an eye out, their Maquis training kicking in; B'Elanna nodded toward the table filled with Guter men and a few women that had the unfortunate luck of being claimed by him and his gang of thugs.

Greg shuddered whispering, "Looks like trouble brewing anyone caught tonight by them will be dead by the morning."

"You think they'll hit the huts?"

"Anything possible, we'll take turns watching tonight, we have Tom and Tuvok to protect, though they won't even stand a chance in hell getting near Tom with Tuvok about."

"Or us for that matter, I heard what they did to Tuvok this morning, after he ripped shreds off them."

"Damn shame, he didn't kill them before they got through."

Ken nodded as he noticed the guards moving into the room, "Wonder what up?"

"Move it, forget the food, we don't want to get tangled up in this mess."

Moving as one, they all dropped their trays, racing for the door along with others who had the same idea as they did.

Racing back to the hut flying into the room and moved one of the beds against the door as they flopped onto the floor.

Shocked Kathryn asked, "What wrong?"

"Trouble, big trouble, tonight everyone stays away from the window and stays alert."

Gulping back the lump that seems to be stuck in his throat, Harry moved into Greg's arms, "Again?"

Nodded as he smoothed his younger lover, glancing around the room taking in all their reactions, taken in the silence Vulcan, saying, "Tuvok, if you can get Chakotay and them to get the lead out, now would be a good time for them to do so."

Without even taking his eyes off his pale husband, Tuvok dully replied, "He knows."

"Good."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

All throughout the night they heard the screams of others, who were caught unaware of the tensions that had been building between the guards and Guter's lot.

Tuvok had Tom in his lap with his arms holding Tom to him, keeping him off the ground as they had piled the beds up against the door from any possible attacks, the windows had been bolted shut from the predecessors before them, no way to escape if they decide to burn them out, they had heard that no matter what happened no huts were to be flamed, but there was always a first time, they thanked whatever gods were listening.

Tuvok tensed as they heard the crowd bashing at the flimsy door of the hut, trying to force their way in, the crowds had decided to try their luck with them again, he could feel them trying to reach him with their minds, he extended his shield about Tom and himself, he felt Chakotay offering support the only way he could.

~ They will not get in T'hy'la we have blocked the doors. ~

~ Tuvok do not tell me not to worry, you know I am just going to worry anyway. ~

~ I know, but I was trying to reassure Thomas. ~

~ How is he? ~

~I wanna come home Tay. ~

~ Tom? ~

~ The one and only. ~

~ Smart ass. ~

~ I love you too. ~

~ We are still talking to the government of this planet. ~

~ Let me guess, they are saying that they never saw us or heard of us? ~

~ Actually they'll very helpful, it seems that you landed in the middle of a war zone, their world is constant conflict over their boarders , The F'iveisea, they're the one who have you imprisoned, while the F'iveise are working to free you. The F'iveisea think you are F'iveise in deep cover, it seen both sides have spies in each other’s camps. ~

~ How long do you think it will be, before we are free? ~

~ Now that the main problem, there is so much red tape involved in releasing innocent people, it seems that this has happened before, so if you can find a way out before we can sort this out on this end, take it. ~

~ I will let the captain know, once we are free, you had better be able to beam us up. ~

~ We're working as fast as we can, head for the shuttle, they have some sort of block and we can't punch through. ~

~ Damn, I'm too weak to move, someone going to have to carry me out. ~

~ Don't worry about that Thomas, just work on getting well. ~

~ Tuvok I don't wanna go with them tomorrow. They scare the shit out of me. ~

~ They will not take you again T'hy'la, that I can promise you. ~

~ You can't stop them, look what happened to you this morning, no more fighting love. ~

~ What happened this morning? ~

~ Nothing happened, I tried to stop them from taking our husband and they knocked me out, by overwhelming me by sheer numbers. ~

~ Did they hurt you? ~

~ I'm unharmed. ~

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

 Ken stared out the window out at the quite court yard, it was way too quiet out there to suit him, it reminded him of the days during his Maquis days, just before entering a battle with the Cardies, he was restless, he was on watch while the others bunked down together to keep warm. Looking back at his friends smiling lightly, he had a lot to smile about now, Looking back outside, frowning as he saw a lone figure strolling the encampment, he glared as Guter looked his way, waving at him cheerily. Guter was the only one who was safe from both sides for some reason. Tom told him when they arrived that he was the top dog, he ruled the entire prison, all new inmates went to him, it had irritated him, that they had fought his people and he saw them as a threat to his kingdom.

Tom had also warned them, that he would strike at his leisure, that was before his first strike had taken Tom out, one of his people had overheard Tom warning them of the rules.

Guter asked the guards to take him out for him.

Glancing back at the others he watched as Tuvok stoke Tom's face lovingly, it looked like he was in a trace, talking to the Capt.,

Tuvok was one lucky man, he got the two best looking men, but he knew that Tuvok worn the both of them down over time, he never thought that Chakotay would have ended up either one with them let alone the both of them, since both of them had betrayed him, only through the bond, did he learn that they the only one who really had was Tuvok it seemed that Tom had been set up from within their cell, someone from their cell had sent Tom to prison, they all suspected that it was Seska but they'll never find out now since she was killed after she and Kazon's left them on that planet of hell, where they lost Hogan to that creature thing.

With a sigh, Ken turned back to the window and watched as the sun rinsed to start another day in the hell hole.
