Author's Notes – Now why did Sasha show Skari McCoy her panties? - The prequel to chapter three is here, with slight changes to the incident.
Earth date – June 2279, McCoy residence, Federation compound
After eighteen months you would think he had it down to a fine art. If his Mrs could do it, then why did he still have problems getting three little toddlers ready for a day out?
"Skari, wipe T'Lora's face again for me kid."
The first son of Leonard and T'Shira McCoy buckled his other sister T'Ava in the carrier. His mother held the other triplet T'Ena in her arms.
"Here honey, let me take her."
"I am not in need of your assistance, husband. I can manage."
"Yeah, but I want you to take it easy."
"Sa-mekh is being logical ko-ko, you have to take care of my little brother." Skari chimed in.
McCoy beamed at the thought of another child on the way. Six children, he would be the father of six children. Two boys and four girls, well his eldest Joanna was a young lady of thirty, serving in Starfleet, following in his footsteps.
In eight months' time, his other son would be born, and as far as McCoy was concerned his duty to aid the Vulcan people's repopulation efforts would be more than complete. Now all he had to do was persuade T'Shira that *going for the snip was the best birth control they could use. If they wanted more McCoys indirectly from this loins Joanna and Sytesh would have to do the honours when they got round to it. A Vulcan son in law..Kirk was still laughing at the thought.

"Sasha, place your little hot butt in the shuttle."
Uhura tried to remain calm as she held Baby T'Imani in her arms, the little one sensed her ko-mekh's irritation and since she was teething that made her just as irritable, the baby let out a sniffle.
"Ko-ko do you think Skari will like my dress?" Sasha just needed that extra reassurance before she climbed on board.
"Ha sweetie, he will love your dress, now please get on the shuttle."
Satisfied the young one, headed for the shuttle, her sister T'Ama beckoned her to a seat and strapped her in. Grayson sat upfront with their father, watching him intensely as he prepared for the flight. Nyota boarded and closed her eyes.
"Definitely no more babies," she thought to herself. "I don't care how many hints T'Pau drops. The only thing coming between my legs from now on is my husband".
Said husband picked up her thoughts in the bond. "A most pleasing thought ashayam."
Uhura smiled at his interpretation of her unintended double entendre.

As often as possible Spock and McCoy's families met together at social events outside their respective **clans. T'Shira and Spock having served on the Enterprise were used to the exuberance of nonVulcanoids, especially Terrans, being married to the species. They both had children of mixed heritage and were learning to accommodate both cultures. All the children would grow up to become firm friends, although two were friendlier than the parents realised.
"You look most pleasing today, Sasha," Skari spoke sitting next to his young companion eating ice cream.
Sasha smiled in response, then quickly set her face. "I am learning to control my emotions but if you let me, I can show you how pleased I am."
Skari looked down as he let her fingers touch his. He felt her warm presence in his hand giving him a pleasurable tingle.
"Sa-mekh says I am too young to touch fingers with girls," Skari shifted his hand away, looking towards the adults. They were too engrossed on their own conversation and keeping watch over the babies in their midst. T'Ama and Grayson were busy playing chess.
"Ko-mekh says 'I need to cool my little hot butt". What does that mean?" Sasha asked in confusion.
"I am not sure, but let me see, maybe there is extra warmth in that area."
"Will you check for me please Skari, Toz'ot Leonard is a healer, he can fix me once we show him the problem."
"Agreed." They both jumped up from the bench, Sasha lifted up her dress. Skari went behind her to check. Just as she was about to bend over a voice called out.
"Sasha pull down your dress, what are you doing?" Grayson's brows lifted in shock at his sister antics. His voice drew the attention of the others. From afar it looked as if the young ones were engaging in actions far too mature for their years.
"Skari is checking to see if my little hot butt is cool."
By this time Skari had pulled down his shorts and showing her his own 'hot little butt'.
"See Grayson since we are hybrids we are comparing to see if the temperature of our.." He never got to finish his sentence. His father had sped over and took him by the arm.
"Come with me young man, we need a little talk," Bones did his best to keep his 'father is being serious' face on, really he wanted to crack up with laughter. T'Shira sensed his amusement, she trusted him to deal with the situation appropriately.
Uhura tried not to shout and scream the house down. No more babies she kept on chanting, no more friggin babies!
Spock thought it was best he handle this situation with their daughter. Calmer heads needed to prevail after all.

S'chn T'gai compound, Spock and Uhura's residence
Apart from the slight hiccup the rest of the day was enjoyable, Joanna and her bondmate joined them and a game of Terran baseball took place. The McCoys won by four runs.
Uhura, still dressed, sat on the bed waiting for her husband to leave his meditation alcove, perhaps she should have joined him. Her mood had calmed down once the full story of what the little children were doing came out. She did her best to refrain from laughing in front of them just in case they took her behaviour as approval. It was hard to punish such innocent actions, both parents decided no ice cream and cake for a week and supervised comm calls between the two for a week would be sufficient.
"You are not in sleepwear, adun'a" Spock entered the room wearing only his sweatpants.
Uhura felt a sense of mischief come over her.
"I was waiting for you, don't you want to check out my little hot butt." She smirked at him.
Spock lifted his brow, his lips quirked, he strutted like a panther about to pounce on his prey.
"Remove your panties woman."
