Disclaimer: I don't know Hawaii 5-0 or any of the shows characters, I'm just having fun with them.
A/N: This chapter is an introduction to Danny, his situation with his wife and his designation in the ABO universe.
The rules are that for the most part Omega's are equal to Alpha's and Betas in every job, except for those that risk their lives, such as firefighters, military, navy and of course as a cop/detective. Unless they are either bonded to any Beta and Alpha that gives them permission to take those kinds of jobs. If they are bonded and get that job or married, not all marriages end in a strong bond with an Omega, especially if they aren't meant for each other and aren't really compatible. Once a marriage is devoiced any bonded Omega is considered unbonded and immediately is put on suspensions and then they usually lose their job.
In this universe, like in all other A/B/O ones only Omega males can get pregnant, but in this case, weather they are male or female if an Omega gives birth, they are known as mom, while the Alpha/Beta either male or female are automatically called dad by the child and society as a whole. In this story Grace will not just be calling Danny, Danno as always, but also mom/mommy while calling Rachel dad/daddy. Now on with the story, I hope everyone enjoys.

Danny sat after the Judge took the stand, he looked across to the other table where Rachel and Stan were sitting. Grace was currently with his parents while the judge was deciding who gets custody of, since the divorce six months ago. Since then Rachel has married Stan, the man she cheated on Danny with. He was a boring businessman Beta, who easily bended to his Alpha's will. One thing that Danny never really did, as an Omega it really frustrated Rachel that he wouldn't submit to her.
Danny knows that Rachel loves Grace, but when they had decided to extend their family Rachel hadn't wanted to get pregnant. Since Danny is an Omega he was able to get pregnant and carry Grace himself. Rachel had hoped and pushed for Danny to stop becoming a cop, thinking being pregnant and having Grace would do that. When she realized that was never going to happen and that Danny was never going to submit to her, she started seeing Stan, when Danny caught them, he filed for divorce knowing that in this state he'd lose his job as a cop, but he could barely look at Rachel much less stay married to her.
"I've made a ruling, for the time being Grace Williams will be staying with Mr. and Mrs. Edwards during the week days, on the weekends she gets to spend with Mr. Williams." Danny felt crushed, the judge had more to say on the subject though. "Mr. Williams, losing your Alpha had to have been difficult, being forced to give up your job because of the laws against Omega's isn't fair, and neither is taking away your daughter. As her mother, I am giving you one year to find a job, get an apartment, prove that you can provide for her without an Alpha and at the end of the year, we will review your claim over custody in this matter. If all my standards have been met the situation might change, so don't lose hope Mr. Williams." With that said the judge was about to dismiss the court on this session.
"Wait Judge, they're planning to move away to Hawaii with Grace, how can I see her if she's not here?" Danny asked.
The judge looked at the couple and saw Rachel's smug face, which quickly was doused. "By ruling of this court, Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, you can't not take Grace out of the country without her mother's approval, if you do leave without Mr. William's say, or he doesn't join you to Hawaii, I will consider it kidnapping, court adjourned." Danny felt relief as they left the court, Rachel yelling at him as they left the building.
"I can't believe you, Stan has a job on the islands, he can't stay here." Rachel screeched at him.
"That's fine, as long as Grace stays here, either with me, or you stay here with Grace and I still get to see her. But I assure you Rachel, there is nothing that could get me on that pineapple infested hell hole." Danny promised.
Now four months later he is regretting those words as he's signing a lease for this pathetic apartment, in a pretty rough neighborhood on Hawaii. He did some digging on the state, and found something that changed his mind.
Decades ago as Omega's were getting their rights to be treated as more then just breeders, but actual people, when the sent blockers came out to make them blend in a bit better, and heat suppressants, making them less confined every six months to an Alpha or some other way to help through their heat week, (AKA Hell Week), in most Omega vocabularies, which helped keep Alpha's from attacking any unbonded Omega just from smell, it was then safe for them to get jobs. Soon, unbonded Omega's could do pretty much anything they wanted to, except that which would put their life in danger. Like being a fire fighter, or in Danial William's case a Detective.
Unless their Alpha gave permission, every Omega born into a family with an Alpha, was immediately put under their authority until the Omega was married or bonded to an Alpha, then the responsibility changed. Danny's father was his Alpha, and his father believed that his children, despite their designation, deserved to decide how to live their lives. He gave his blessing when Danny wanted to become a cop.
When he married Rachel that changed, she became his Alpha, and at first it was fine, she thought it was progressive, until her Alpha side realized what a head strong Omega she was dealing with who wouldn't submit just because she wanted him to, she tried to force him once, and that didn't go well. There was just something in their relationship, she didn't have the strong Alpha pheromones that would work on this particular Omega. Grace had been a last resort to get Danny to bend under her will, when that failed, she found Stan and then they divorced.
Once it was clear he was unbonded, IA became involved and quickly soon after Danny lost everything, his badge, his gun, his job. He was staying with his parents until he could get back on his feet, with the threat of losing his daughter. Danny's depressing was hitting an all time low that neither of his older Alpha sisters could do to help with, and his Alpha younger brother Matt just barely kept him from the edge of losing it all together. The only thing that gave him hope was this year, one year to get everything back in order and then he could possibly get Gracie back permanently in his life, instead of just part time.
So, after the judge's ruling, he was looking for a state, another place that would allow an unbonded Omega to be a detective, out of 50 states, he only found one. One, because there was more Omega's there, then anywhere else, so they changed the rule. It had to be the one place he least wanted to move to…Hawaii. It felt like fate was working against him, that is…until he met one Alpha that would not just shake his world to pieces, but change it, in all the right ways.
