Author's Note:

Hello everyone. Here is chapter 1 of this story. The plan is it will be mostly Jim and Pavel centric so I hope you enjoy.

Taken

"Mr Sulu. What is our ETA?"

The man who had spoken was Jim Kirk. Hikaru Sulu turned to answer. "ETA in approximately 5 minutes Captain."

"Thank you Mr Sulu."

Their currant mission was relatively simple, they were delivering necessary building materials and performing a routine inspection of the colony on Gamma 2. It was a welcome change from the craziness that seemed to always find them and many said it was a well deserved break. Hearing the turbo-lift door, Jim looked to see Scotty come onto the bridge with a PADD.

"I just wanted tae check that the away team members are fine with you Captain."

Taking the PADD, Jim looked over the list. "Are you sure you're taking enough men Scotty?"

"Aye sir. It's just a wee colony so me and the five recruits should be able tae handle the inspection just fine."

Seeing that Scotty was right he looked at the list again, there were a couple of names he didn't know but his CEO most likely saw this as a chance to train some newer crewmen. Suddenly struck by an idea he looked back up a Scotty.

"I think they're all fine but why don't you take Chekov with you as well?"

The navigator in question looked round at him. "Vhy vould you take me Keptain?"

"Chekov, you need to get out of the ship more and besides it would be a great opportunity for you learn more from Scotty."

"If you insist Keptain."

"I do insist Chekov. Do have any objections Scotty?"

The Scotsman answered "None at all Captain."

Hikaru interrupted the conversation "We're about to reach Gamma 2 Captain."

"Good." Jim answered "As soon as we're in orbit, I want you to prepare to go down to the planet Mr Chekov."

"Aye sir."

Fifteen minutes later Jim and the rest of the away team gathered in the transporter room. Before beaming down he gave a quick last minute recap of the mission to his team.

"As you all know, we are here to deliver vital supplies to the colony as well as inspect it for any further maintenance that may be required. I'll be meeting with the colony's governor to discuss how the Enterprise may be able to assist them further. Mr Scott will assign each of you a different part of the colony when we are on the surface. Any questions?"

With no questions forthcoming, Jim took his place on the transporter pad.

"Energise."

When they materialised on the planet's surface they were met by the governor who, after the normal formalities, left with Jim to start their meeting. Not wasting any time, Scotty organised the team onto three small groups and sent them to different parts of the colony.

Pavel and Scotty were inspecting an area together and after he was given a few lessons on exactly what they were checking for Pavel took one street while Scotty took the one next to it. He got about halfway through in a fairly short time, the colony had obviously been very well maintained and most of the problems he had found could be sorted with the materials that they had already brought. His attention was attracted by three men who were standing around outside one of the houses. Initially unconcerned Pavel continued with his work until he noticed them showing a great interest in him. Feeling uneasy he tried to keep a subtle eye on them and saw that although they appeared to be only having an innocent conversation one of them would always be looking in his direction at any one time. His unease only grew when they started to head down the street towards him still talking. Pavel passed them right next to a small passage between two of the houses and they suddenly moved. Two of the men grabbed him and bundled him towards the passageway. Before Pavel could do anything to react the third grabbed the back of his neck, a surge of what felt like electricity coursed through Pavel's body and he blacked out.

Scotty had finished his street very quickly and had gone to check up on Pavel. When he got onto the street the lad was doing he saw the boy further down the road. Seeing that the lad was doing fine, Scotty walked unhurriedly after him and didn't notice anything amiss until it was too late. As soon as the men grabbed Pavel Scotty burst into a sprint yelling.

"GET AWAY FROM HIM YER BASTARDS!"

Wasting no time, one of the men threw the unconscious boy over his shoulder and all three sprinted down the passageway. Scotty, still in hot pursuit, grabbed his comm from his belt and messaged the away team and the Enterprise.

"This is Scotty. Some unknown men have taken Chekov in the eastern section of the colony. I need immediate back up now!"

Diving round a corner, he saw them sprint into a small Class J starship. Unable to stop it taking off, he quickly commed the Enterprise again.

"They're trying to escape the planet. You've got tae stop the bastards!"

He heard Spock's calm reply. "Understood Mr Scott."

Unable to do more, Scotty could only stand and watch as the ship flew into the sky. He stood there for agonising minutes as he waited for news from the ship. After what seemed an age he heard Jim through the comm.

"Kirk to Enterprise, have you got them?"

There was a long pause before Spock answered. "I'm sorry Captain but the ship has escaped."

Scotty sat on the ground in disbelief. Chekov was gone.

PS-Please review and if I've got the ship class wrong please let me know and give me a more suitable one so I can change it.
