Hey everyone! In this story Oliver's goal, to save his city by righting his father's wrongs, is still the same, though Oliver will not be exactly like the Oliver in the TV show. This story will do a few crossovers from the TV show, but there will be some changes to that too.

Hope you enjoy, and please leave me a review to tell me what you think.

Television Anchorman: Oliver Queen is alive. The Starling City resident was found by fishermen in the North China sea 5 days ago, with an unknown female, 5 years after he was missing and presumed dead following the accident at sea which claimed, "The Queen's Gambit." Queen was a regular tabloid presence and a fixture at the Starling City club scene. Shortly before his disappearance, he was acquitted of assault charges stemming from a highly publicized drunken altercation with paparazzi. Queen is the son of Starling City billionaire Robert Queen, who was also on board but now officially confirmed as deceased.

Oliver was standing in his hospital room, staring out the window. He was wondering if coming back was a good idea. He knew it would be hard coming back to his family and friends, but now that he was in the city all of the emotions, he knew he would feel, were so much stronger than expected. He could hear the doctor talk outside the room to someone. He was explaining how Oliver's conditions were, so he guessed it was his mother. No one else would have a good reason to know that, and her reason was that she was his mother.

The door opened and Moira walked in.

"Oliver," Was all she said, in a careful manner.

"Mom," He returned, in the same careful manner as his mother did. They smiled at each other and then hugged. They stood like that for almost a minute finally able to be around each other again.

Oliver heard on the other side of the room and he knew who was coming. The door slowly opened, and it revealed a woman. A beautiful tan woman with dark hair. Moira turned to see her standing there in front of the now closed door. She had no idea who this woman was or why she was standing in her son's hospital room. She didn't say anything, since she saw Oliver walk over to stand beside the woman.

"Mom. This is Nyssa. My wife," he stated as he put his arm around her lower back. Moira looked at her son in shock, but she couldn't help but smile at him. She was happy for him being back and for him finding someone he loved. Moira and Nyssa greeted and soon enough the doctor walked in and told Oliver that he would be able to leave anytime he like.

The car had pulled up to the entrance of the Queen Mansion. Oliver went out of the car first, right behind him Nyssa and Moira followed. The driver had just put his hand on Oliver and Nyssa's case, which they had with them home from the island, when Oliver put his hand on it too.

"I've got it," He said, and the driver removed his hand and let Oliver carry it. They walked inside the huge mansion, and Oliver noticed his mother speaking, but he didn't pay any attention to what she was saying. Walter walked towards the entrance as Oliver and Nyssa was taking in the fact that they didn't have to sleep on the island tonight. He greeted them.

"Oliver. It's damn good to see you," He started. "And now who is this lovely woman?"

"Walter, this is Nyssa, my wife," He said smiling at Walter. Walter looked surprised at his revelation. He took Nyssa's hand as she reached to shake his hand and greet him.

"Well, congratulations to the two of you," Walter said, really happy on their behalf.

"Thank you," Nyssa replied for them both.

"And congratulations to you too," Oliver continued, as he looked between his mother and his new stepfather. Moira and Walter looked at each other confused on how Oliver would know about them. Both Oliver and Nyssa saw their confused looks, so Nyssa decided to continue.

"We noticed the look you gave each other when we walked in," Nyssa explained. Moira and Walter looked surprised at them. They didn't realize they were that obvious, even though they tried to hide it for now.

"Well, thank you Oliver, " Walter started. "But we don't want you to think that either one of us did anything to disrespect your father," Moira finished for him, as she took his hand. Oliver gave them a look that said that he was happy for them and approved their marriage.

Oliver and Nyssa started walking towards the stairs as they heard steps at the top of the stairs. A second later they saw Thea standing at the first step from the top. Thea saw Oliver at the bottom smiling at her. She started running down the stairs and even skipped a few steps on the way down. When she reached the bottom step, she jumped into her brother's arms.

"Hey sis," Oliver said as they still hugged. Thea was at a loss of words, until they decided to break the hug and she noticed the beautiful woman behind Oliver, who she was sure she had never seen before.

"Hey. Who is she?" She asked simply, but in a kind voice. Oliver was about to tell her when Nyssa spoke up.

"I am Nyssa. Your brother's wife," She said, and like everyone else who had heard the news she was shocked.

"I am happy to meet you," Was all Thea could answer to that revelation.

Oliver had just gotten out of the shower and were now standing in his room looking a himself in the mirror. Nyssa looked at her husband concerned for what he was thinking.

"Oliver, what are you thinking?" She asked sounding concerned. Oliver sighed.

"I knew it was going to be hard to come home after such long time. Now that I look at myself, I am concerned on how my family will take when they realize I'm not the same person," He stated, looking sadly at himself in the mirror. Nyssa stood up from her place on the bed and walked up behind her husband and put her arms around him. She placed her head on his shoulder.

"We knew it would be hard, and your family will, in time, accept you as you are now," She reassured him. Oliver smiled at her in the mirror.

"Yeah. In time. How did I get so lucky to meet you?" He asked, now feeling better.

"You were dead for two years," Nyssa joked. Oliver chuckled at her answer.

"Yeah, I did," He said and turned around to kiss his wife.

Oliver, Nyssa, Thea, Moira, Walter and Tommy were now eating dinner as Raisa stumbled behind Oliver with a bowl of fruit in her hand. Oliver, with his quick reflexes, was able to catch the bowl of fruit and put a hand on Raisa to make sure she didn't fall. Everyone saw the sudden movement from Oliver and was surprised that he was able to react, except Nyssa, who knew how fast her husband was.

"Oh, I am so sorry, Mr. Oliver, " Raisa apologized.

"It's no worry," Oliver answered in Russian. Nyssa smirked at how he answered, even though she doesn't understand Russian. Everyone else looked at him astonished.

"Dude, you speak Russian?" Tommy asked.

"I learned a couple of languages in the years I was… Away," He stated.

"What else did you learn?" Thea asked.

"Japanese, Mandarin and Nyssa's mother language, Arabic," He told them. Everyone still looked at him surprised. Thea's curiosity got the better of her.

"How did you learn that on the island? I mean, Arabic makes sense since Nyssa could have learned you that on the island. I assume you met her on the island?"

"Yeah, we did meet on the island, but we will tell you some other time about the rest," Nyssa answered for her husband and Oliver nodded at her response, grateful. Thea just nodded at the answer she got. She was somewhat disappointed that they wouldn't tell her, but she understood that it probably wasn't a good time in their life.

"Tomorrow, you and me, we're doing the city. You've got a lot to catch up on," Tommy said to Oliver, after there had been a pause in the conversations at the table.

"That sounds like a great idea," Nyssa and Moira said simultaneously. They quickly gave each other a smile and then went back to Oliver and Tommy.

"That's sounds good," Oliver told Tommy, though it was directed at everyone. The rest of the evening went with small talk about how it was home.

"What do you think of my family?" Oliver asked Nyssa, as they were lying in their bed. Nyssa was resting her head on Oliver's chest. She would only be like this whenever it was just the two of them. She looked up at him before she answered.

"I like it. Much. I was happy that they didn't ask more questions on the first day back," She answered genuinely.

"Good, because they are also your family now," He stated with a smile. Nyssa chuckled at the fact that it was true.

"I'm happy they are," She said before she kissed him. The kiss quickly deepened, since there were so many emotions in play at the moment.

"Nyssa. Have you seen Oliver?" Thea asked.

"He and Tommy went into the city fifteen minutes ago," Nyssa answered. Thea looked like she was wondering about something. Nyssa decided to ask her what it was, so she didn't just let it go.

"What is it, Thea?" Nyssa asked her.

"I just wanted to talk to both of you about it, but I guess you can to talk to Oliver about it later. I wanted to ask you about your marriage." Thea explained somewhat nervously. She really hoped that Nyssa wouldn't just decline her request immediately. Nyssa gave her a look that told her to continue. "I wanted to ask if you would have a wedding here? You know where we would be able to attend," Thea asked, emphasizing the 'we' in her request.

Nyssa looked at her surprised. She knew what Thea meant and understood it, but they were already married. Not legally, but they were married. Plus, she didn't know what she thought about a traditional wedding, which was not what they already had.

"Thea… I don't know. I mean, we definitely didn't plan on having one…" Nyssa explained cautiously. She didn't want Thea to be sad about it or feel bad for making the suggestion.

"Didn't plan on having what?" Moira asked as she walked into the big living room where Nyssa and Thea were sitting on each couch.

"Plan on having a wedding where we, everyone, would be able to attend," Thea explained eagerly to her mother. She knew her mother would approve of that. She wanted to see her son getting married too.

"That sounds like a wonderful idea," Moira stated, now sharing the same enthusiasm as Thea had. Nyssa sighed for herself.

"Okay, before you get even more excited about that, I will have to ask Oliver so see what he says about it," Nyssa said, trying to calm down to two other women in the room. They agreed that they had to ask Oliver about it first, so they promised to not look further into wedding planning or anything. "Is it okay if I go take a walk around the area? I like to know my surroundings when I am going to be here for a while,"

"Yeah, of course Nyssa," Moira smiled at her.

"Can I come with you?" Thea asked.

"Yeah of course Thea," Nyssa smiled.

When they came back to the mansion Tommy and Oliver were sitting in the living room on a couch. Across them, on the other couch, sat two detectives . Nyssa and Thea were curious about what had happened.

"Thank you, detectives," Oliver said to the detectives. One of the detectives didn't look happy though, like he despised Oliver. They walked out the living room and Walter followed them out the front door to the mansion.

"What happened?" Nyssa asked really curious about what was going on.

"We were kidnapped. When suddenly we were saved by a guy in a green hood," Oliver explained, and sent a look to Nyssa that said, 'Our plan is in motion'. She gave a slight nod, that she knew only Oliver would notice.

"Oh my God! Are you guys okay?" Thea asked really concerned. She had just gotten her brother back; she didn't want to lose him already. She quickly ran to them and hugged them both. Nyssa acted like she was concerned, even though she knew her husband could take of himself. Which he did. So, she decided too to get to Oliver and hug and kiss him like he had been close to dying. Oliver chuckled at them.

"Yeah we're okay," He said looking at Tommy making sure he was too. He nodded at Oliver's look. "I have already called a security firm for a bodyguard." He wanted Thea and his mother to be less worried about him, so he knew if he didn't call for a bodyguard, then one of them would. Nyssa looked at him, slightly confused why he would do that. Thea and Nyssa pulled back from the hug and Nyssa sat down besides Oliver, still acting like the concerned wife.

"I think I will head home. I need a drink," Tommy stated as he stood and went for the front door. Oliver was quick to follow him. They were standing alone in front of the front door.

"Tommy, if you need to talk, just tell me. Okay?" Oliver asked concerned on how Tommy would react to a situation like that.

"Thanks man, I will. But, right now I really need a drink to process this episode," He told Oliver and pulled him into a bro-hug. They pulled apart and Tommy left the mansion. Oliver walked back to the living room and looked at the others.

"I think I will go take a shower. Try to relax," Oliver told them like he needed to process this too, even though he didn't. He was perfectly fine, and Nyssa knew that. She also knew that he used the shower as an excuse to leave the others, so he would be able to talk to Nyssa alone.

"Yeah, go do that my son," Moira said understandingly. Oliver turned to leave them, when Walter spoke up.

"Oliver, if you need to talk to anyone about what happened, we would all love to help if you think we can," Walter said. Oliver knew he didn't just mean about the kidnapping, but also the island. He smiled at him.

"Thank you, Walter," Was all he returned. He turned around and left the room to shower. Nyssa noticed the look on everyone's face. They were worried how he was holding up, but at the same time they didn't want to push him to tell them about the island. She wanted to ease their concern.

"I will go talk to him; make sure he is okay," Nyssa said as she looked at them. They all nodded at her. She stood and followed Oliver to their room.

She entered the room and could hear Oliver was already in the shower. She didn't want to wait for him to get out, so she undressed and entered the bathroom. She walked up behind him in the shower and put her arms around him.

"Hmm, I was wondering if you were going to join me here," Oliver said, as he turned around in her arms. He wrapped his arms around her too.

"I wouldn't miss this," Nyssa answered Oliver started kissing her and she returned it. They broke their kiss and stared at each other. "What happened?" Oliver sighed at her question. He really hoped their shower would have been spent on something differently.

"We had just parked in an alley near my father's old steel factory, when four guys appeared with machineguns. I heard a long before they got there, but not in time to get back into the car and drive away;" Oliver explained. Nyssa noticed a mark close to his heart and kissed it.

"Then what about the mark?"

"I woke zip-tied with my hands behind the chair I sat on. He asked about my father and tased me, when I didn't answer him. I got out of the zips and killed all of the guys," Oliver finished, but then he saw the look on Nyssa's face and decided to add a crucial part. "And I made sure that Tommy was still out, when I did so," He was able to see the relief on Nyssa's face after he had added the last part.

"What about the bodyguard? That is only going to become a problem," Nyssa asked, concerned on how her husband would be able to make that work. Oliver chuckled at her, but she failed to see the fun in it, so he explained.

"It's the guy we talked about. John Diggle. I asked specifically for him, when I asked for one," Oliver couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw the look of realization on her face. "I know what I am doing, Love. I know it didn't happen like he had planned, but it will work out," Nyssa kissed her husband. She loved when he called her by a nickname, but she only showed it when it was just the two of them. They had a hot make out session, when it suddenly reminded her about something.

"Beloved, we need to talk about something," She started, trying to slow down her breathing from their make out session. Oliver looked at her confused at her. "Thea and your mother want us to get married again. They want to be present when we get married," Nyssa explained. She knew it wasn't what they had said to her, but she knew it was what they really meant.

"Huh. I didn't even think about that," Oliver replied to her statement. "Do you want to get married officially and legally?" He could see that Nyssa thoughts were running on overdrive right now.

"I definitely wouldn't mind," Said with a cheeky smiled and kissed him again and deepened it immediately. This time they didn't get interrupted or pulled apart before they were done.

When they were done, Oliver had put on his boxers when Nyssa stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in her towel. Oliver went over to her and knelt down on one knee in front of her.

"Nyssa al ghul, will you do me the honor to have an official wedding day?" Oliver asked smiling. Nyssa could tell he was teasing her in a way.

"Yes I will, Oliver 'Al sah-Him' Queen,"
