Bear POV

I woke up to the light in my room. I opened my eyes to see Oliver's younger sibling opening the curtains. I yawned as I sat up. Thea saw me and gave a small smile. Today's the day where I become a United States citizen and Oliver's coming alive again. Thea had a pair of clothes in her hands. I raised an eyebrow.

"Clothes for you for today. You need to look nice. Now go get change and meet us downstairs" Thea said while putting the clothes on a chair. I nodded and she left the room, leaving me to change. I sighed and got out of the bed. Walking over to the clothes and putting them on. They seem very wierd. The shirt is loose on me and the skirt is a little tight. I shrugged it off knowing that I never had clothes like this before. I wanted to get used to them though, wanting to dress like Thea and Oliver's mom. I don't mind wearing my regular clothes,  just I want to try other clothes out too.

After I made sure I looked decent enough, I left my room and made my way down the stairs. I then made my way to the living room where I heard people talking.

"Four times by my estimate, you know, there was the DUI, the assault on that paparazzi douchbag, and stealing the taxi, which was just awesome by the way. And who can forget peeing on that cop" a males voice said as I entered the room.

"I wish everyone would" Mrs. Queen said as Mr. Walter helps her put a coat on. Oliver turned to look at his friend.

"I'd love to hang but we are headed to the courthouse" Oliver said patting Tommy on the shoulder.

"I know, thats why I'm here. My best friend is getting legally resurrected, I wouldn't miss it for the world" Tommy said to Oliver. Oliver the turn to look at his Sister.

"What about you?" He asked . Thea sighed and started walking toward him.

"I think the first 4 times of you in court is enough for me" Thea said as she walked out, but before she left completely, she gave me a smile and patted my back.

"Good luck " she said before walking off.

"Mrs. Queen?" A voice said from behind me. We all turn to see Mr. Diggle.

"The cars ready " he said. Mrs. Queen nodded and she began walking out of the house. Oliver held his hand out for me and I took it as we walked out of the house and to the car.

Once we got to the courthouse,  we got out of the car. The courthouse was big, or at least,  big to me. There was also a  bunch of people with cameras waiting in front of us.  Oliver grabbed my arm and kept me close as the crowd of people hovered us and asked us questions about the island. We soon entered the building and into another room. Oliver went up first and told the judge what happened to him.

"There was a storm. The boat went down. I was the only survivor. My father didn't make it. I almost died, I, I thought I had, because I spent so many days on that life raft before I made it to the island, and when I reached it, I knew that I had to live for the both of us, and in those five years, it was that one thought that kept me going " Oliver said. The lady sitting at the table behind Oliver stood up.

"Your honor, we move to vitiata the death- in- absentia filed after Olivers disappearance at sea aboard the queens gambit give years ago," the lady said as she walked up to the judge,"unfortunately we will not be requesting that the declaration of the death file for the petitioners father, Robert Queen, be rescinded. The queen family is only entitled to one miracle I'm afraid"

Oliver was then a legal citizen again. It was soon my turn, but this time it will be a little different. They asked me to stand in front of the judge, which I did so. They then asked me how I ended up on the island. I sighed before I began explaining.
