-1 Disclaimer: Star Trek in all its forms belongs to Gene Roddenberry and the Corporations. I do not own James Bond or that world either. There is no infringement intended, as this is just a humble fan fiction intended to amuse and entertain. No money will be made nor is any expected. Just a few reviews to make the author smile and feel it is worth writing more. This is a Soval and Amanda Cole fan fiction. Trip and T'Pol are a mated pair and will be popping in from time to time. In this fan fiction T' Pol and Soval are related and T' Pau is T' Pol's cousin. Other Enterprise crew may appear as needed. Consider this an AU with little regards to Cannon.

"May we together be more then the some of our parts."- Surak
Part 28 (Porthos and the Praxton)
Jonathan Archer hated to wait. He did it poorly He knew that Malcolm would do all he could to find out the information to protect his people. Jonathan leaned back in his chair as he absently watched the water polo game. His mind however was on the people who he considered his family. Trip and T'Pol and even Soval and Amanda had become very important to him. He cared for all of his crew deeply but his bridge staff had become his surrogate family. He reflected back over the years. He had always been alone a man with friends but not a family. Enterprise had changed that. They as a crew had been through so much that it was a binding experience. He chuckled at that thought. Yes the crew had bonded to each other. He knew that thought would not amuse his Vulcan family but the fact was even before the adoption the Crew was well on the way to being family. Soval's generous offer had merely made it official and legal.
He sipped his beer and absently petted Porthos. "So boy do you think I will ever find a woman for us?"
The little beagel wagged his tail as if to say I hope so.
"I know boy I am lonely too. I guess on the ship I did not notice it so much. Maybe we should go out. There is nothing we can do here."
The little dog jumped up and down happy to be going out. He ran and brought his leash over to his master. Archer grinned and put it on him. "OK we will go for a walk. Maybe we can hit the bread and cheese shop."
Porthos barked his approval. The pair left his quarters and headed to the down town area. A sourdough and cheese sandwich sounded really good about now. I miss having chef in the galley Archer thought.
The pair headed out and were followed by two men.
"That is him." One said into his com unit. " We can grab him when he is closer to the park. "
"What about his dog?" Hicks asked
"Shoot it. It is just a beagel stunning it should be enough."
"Ok Jackson it is your call. Remember Praxton wants him alive."
"I know, but that don't mean we can not rough him up some. He is a traitor to the human race."
"I agree me and Downs will move into position."
An other voice can on the line. "You will secure Archer but not harm him."
Hicks cursed lowly as he heard their leaders voice on the line. Damn Praxton for a micromanaging bastard. He took all the fun out of the work
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
"Ok Porthos we will stop at the Doggie park first. You can run for a few minutes and I will grab a soda."
The little dog barked ran to explore as his leash was released. He sniffed the ground and began to chase a butterfly making his master laugh and relax.
Archer watched the animal play and suddenly chase after a little female mutt one owned by an associate of Soval named T'Lar . He laughed at the animals antics.
"You know Captain that should not be allowed."
Archer spun around and froze as Praxton stood before him. He turned to leave and a pistol was stuck into his back.
"A breed should stay true don't you think?" Praxton said.
Archer glared not believing he had been so careless.
"I don't know sometimes you get improvements. That little mutt of Jen's is faster then my beagel and smart."
"But it is impure and ugly as sin." Praxton said "Come Captain we must talk. Somewhere more private I think."
Porthos saw Jonathan was in trouble and he came running over with Belle at his side. Both dogs began to bark and bared their teeth. Hicks fired and Belle fell over stunned. Jen came running.
"What are you doing to my canine." She called
Hicks turned and fired knocking her out. This distraction was all that Porthos needed. He sunk his teeth into Praxton deep and drawing blood. The head of Terra Prime cried out and kicked him away hard. The little dog rolled and attacked again. This giving Jonathan a chance he hit the goon who had been covering him. He did not see the second man who fired and hit him in the back. Angry now Praxton fired and missed as Porthos ran away. He knew he could not save his master he had to get help. He ran.
Downs went to chase him.
"Leave him." Praxton said
"But sir he bite you."
"Yes and If I see it again I will kill it but for now we need to get away. Take the Vulcan perhaps she could be useful. We need new genetic stock."
Porthos ran he had to get help. He would go to Trip he was closest. The human would save his master and his mate.
