Ch. 4 Reunions

Special thanks to my Beta Reader, Roseimagine, for cleaning up this chapter. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Hellsing. Just my OC's and the plot

"Wake up Oya. You need to get up…" Upon hearing the customized alarm she had created on her phone Oya reached for it and turned it off. She kept her hand on her nightstand for a few seconds before slipping it back into the covers. She knew it was six o'clock in the morning, the exact time she set the alarm but, she didn't feel like getting up. The entire room was chilly and she was nice and warm under her blankets. After cleaning herself up early yesterday afternoon she went straight to bed, most likely sleeping well over, not to mention, much needed nine hours.

After a few minutes Oya pushed back the thick layer of blankets and dragged herself out of bed. Stripping herself of her white night clothes she put on a long sleeved black shirt, dark blue jeans, and white socks and shoes. Brushing her hair and teeth were the last thing she did before calling Waltz. It didn't take him long to answer. "Hey Oya. Glad you're up."

Oya chuckled. "In a matter of speaking. Is Grandpa there?"

"Yeppers. He's still sleeping, along with the others." That would explain the lack of chatter in the background Oya thought to herself.

"Are you guys still going to drag him to the park?" She said wondering if they were going to keep to the original plan.

"Yep. We discussed that last night. Told him that we just wanted to spend some family time together."

Oya threw on her backpack and twirled her keys. "Perfect. Text me when y'all get there. I have a feeling this is going to be a day to remember."

"Why are we heading there again?" Walter asked confused, they had circled the park already a few times prior.

"Come on Grandpa! We just wanted to spend some time at the park. Besides, it gives us something to do." Waltz and Walter were having a somewhat one sided conversation as they headed to the park.

Joining them was Walter's third daughter Emily and her husband Richard. Emily had blond hair, brown eyes, and wore a yellow sundress, white flats, and a sunhat of matching color. Richard had light brown hair, blue eyes, and wore a dark blue shirt, black slacks and shoes. Waltz, on the other hand, was the spitting image of his Grandfather in his younger years. He wore a blue shirt, blue jeans, and white socks and shoes.

When they arrived the four of them walked up to a picnic table. Waltz trailed behind and slipped his phone out of his pocket. After texting Oya he ran up to join the others. When they all sat down Waltz was the first to speak "So, Grandpa. If you could have anything for your birthday, what would it be?"

Walter smirked playfully, "World domination."

Everyone laughed.

"Dad, I think he meant something we can get for you." Emily said still giggling.

"Oh, then an oak tree."

Emily batted her father's arm playfully "Now you're just being silly!"

As everyone was talking Waltz's phone buzzed. It was a text from Oya: Here, I'm near the restrooms. Grab Aunt Emily and get over here!

Waltz texted back: Sure thing Cuz.

"Hey, Aunt Emily. Mind if I show you something?"

"Of course poppet."

The two left the group and hurried over to the restrooms. Right behind the small building was Oya.

"Aunt Emily, did you bring the stuff like we ask?"

"Of course. I wouldn't let everyone down, now would I?"

Oya smiled "Perfect. Now, let's get started."

At least twenty minutes passed by since Waltz and Emily left and Walter was starting to worry. "Do you think we should look for them?"

"Don't worry, I'm sure they're fine." responded Richard.

Unbeknownst to them, Waltz and Emily were coming their way. Both of them were carrying a large box. The box was a typical brown color and had had a pink bow on it.

"Hey Grandpa." called Waltz.

Walter turned his head in the direction of his grandson's voice "Hmm, yes?"

Emily and Waltz set the package on the table. "This comes from the whole family. Happy birthday." Waltz smiled brightly.

Walter blushed and rubbed the back on his head "Oh my. Thank you. You didn't have to do this for me."

"Nonsense Dad." said Emily "We all love you and wanted to give you the best present possible." She then pulled out her phone and hit the record button.

Walter smiled warmly. He stood up and inspected the package. Just as he was removing the pink bow the top burst open and a person stood up in the box.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA!"

Walter was completely stunned. The person in the box, who was standing right in front of him, was his granddaughter. It took a few moments before he found his voice again. "Oya?"

Oya grinned. "Yep."

Richard and Waltz helped her down from the table and she threw her arms around her grandfather.

"Surprise, Dad." smirked Emily.

Walter smiled and wrapped his arms around Oya. Tears glistened in his eyes. Oya gave him a kiss on the cheek. "How is this possible? You're supposed to be in Chile." said Walter.

"I talked with the boss-lady and we worked out a deal. If they could find a replacement for me then I could leave early."

Walter chuckled "You never cease to surprise me."

"I try." She shrugged playfully.

"So, who wants to grab something to eat?" suggested Richard.

Waltz shrugged. "Why not?"

Back at the hospital Oya worked at, everyone was busy. The surviving medical staff were hard at work taking care of not only the patients but working around the cleaning crew Hellsing sent. Very few of the wounded weren't turned into ghouls and they were in serious condition.

At a nurses station Mandy and Trilly were standing behind Alex, who was hard at work on a computer. "Any luck?" asked Mandy peering over Alex's shoulder.

Alex sighed "No. I can't find anything on a 'J. '. Any results I come up with don't match his description."

Mandy scratched her chin. "That doesn't make sense. Why would he give us a false name?"

"He's hiding something." stated Trilly.

"Of course he's hiding something." sighed Alex, annoyed at the younger nurse's habit to state the obvious "The question is: why?"

"Why do people dye their hair and wear colored contacts?" stated Mandy. "You may wonder that but you can't directly ask them why they do that. You need to find out why without being obvious and judging from Mr. Brenner's personality, I don't think we'll ever know."

"Good point. By the way, are his test results finished yet?"

Trilly nodded. "Yep. I can guarantee ya you'll be surprised with the results are." She pulled the papers out of a desk drawer.

Mandy hesitated, everything that had happened and then the mysterious results made her feel slightly sick, "Why do I get the feeling this isn't going to be good…"

Oya and the others finished eating lunch and were taking a walk around the city. Emily, Richard, and Waltz mostly filled Oya and Walter in on what had happened in the Dornez household while they were gone. As for breaking the news that Oya was back home to everyone else, they decided to show Emily's cell phone video to everyone later that night.

"The twins actually did that?!" exclaimed Oya while laughing.

"Yep. Aunt June grounded them but they said it was worth It." explained Waltz.

Walter chuckled and shook his head "Those girls are quite the handful. I suppose they got that from their mother."

Just then Oya's phone went off. She pulled it out of her bag and looked at the number. It was Trilly. "Hang on guys. I need to take this call. I think it's work related."

"Alright Oya." said Emily "We'll wait on you."

Oya smiled and slipped into an alleyway between two restaurants and answered the call. "What is it Trilly?"

"Hey Oya. I know you're spending time with your family but I feel like you really need to hear this."

"Alright. What's the news?" She asked, bracing herself for any unwanted news, she leaned against one of the brick walls for support.

"For starters, Alex couldn't find anything on Mr. Brenner."

Oya scoffed, "Figured as much. What's the other news?"

"I ran the tests on him like you wanted me to and the results are quite shocking. His iron levels are nearly nonexistent, he's severely dehydrated, hypotension, low blood cell count, malnourishment, high temperature, and he's having difficulty breathing."

Oya closed her eyes and gave a frustrated huff. "Keep him on oxygen, start him on midodrine, and get his temperature down. If his iron levels are that low then give him a blood transfusion. Get some food in him while you're at it. If he doesn't eat then shove it down his throat."

Trilly chuckled "Okay, but, before you hang up I wanted to tell you something else." She was a little hesitant in sharing.

Oya raised an eyebrow. "What is it?"

"Last night, while Susan and I were changing him, I noticed he has a lot of scars on his body."

She wrapped her free arm around her abdomen, "Old or fresh?"

"Old. This may be Alex just overthinking things but, she has the sneaking feeling he's in an abusive relationship*."

"Well, we do see a lot of those people and it wouldn't surprise me judging how that woman, Sir Integra, acted." She shook her head as she remembered her earlier quarrel with the young woman.

"But, she seemed nice."

"Never judge a book by its cover. You said that exact same thing about that man whose wife was in our hospital for a supposed kitchen accident. If this man is being abused then we need to keep him away from her."

"Well, if that's what's really happening to him, then I agree. Well, I have to go. See you tonight."

"Right. Bye." The two girls hung up and Oya exhaled, her hand gripping her side. She joined the others and they continued their family time.

At six o'clock in the afternoon Oya and the others were back at the park and were saying their goodbyes for the day. "Have a safe trip home guys." said Oya.

"You too cuz." said Waltz.

Oya watched them slip into Waltz's car and leave. She exhaled heavily and made her way to the bus stop. I miss them so much already, thought Oya as she sighed.

When Walter and the others arrived at the house his niece Jenny, came running outside. "Uncle Walter! There's a phone call for you!"

Walter blinked in surprise, "Really?" He ruffled Jenny's hair. "Thank you."

Jenny giggled and Walter walked into the house. He picked up the phone, which was on a table near the door and answered. "Hello?"

"Walter, I'm glad I caught you." Integra sounded relieved.

Walter blinked in surprise, "Sir Integra? Is there something wrong?" He tensed up slightly, fearing the worst possible scenario back at the mansion without his presence or Alucard's.

"No," Integra said quickly, already guessing what Walter could be feeling. "I just wanted to see how things were going on your end."

Walter smiled, "Wonderfully Sir."

"I'm glad. I also wanted to inform you I just got out of the meeting with the Round Table. We've worked things out and found a way to get Alucard back." He figured her relief was from being able to solve that dilemma.

Walter smirked, "Is that so? You know his doctor won't give him up without a fight."

"No need to worry Walter. Everything will be taken care of." Integra mentioned full of confidence.

Walter hung up and chuckled. He knew his granddaughter was extremely dedicated to her work and wouldn't just give Alucard to Integra. I wonder what she will do, Walter pondered and as he continued to give it more thought his smile grew wider.

Oya hopped off the bus and ran into the apartment building. When she reached her floor she noticed the door to her apartment was ajar. Is someone in my apartment?

Her wires flickered around her as she approached the door, ready to take down the intruder who had dared to enter her sanctuary. She stopped when she was next to her door. Sounds of someone humming could be heard from inside and Oya could smell different arrays of food being mixed together. She rolled her eyes, put her wires away and entered her apartment. Someone was in her kitchen cooking, a man to be exact. "Hey, what are you doing here Angel?"

The man turned around. He was pale with brown hair and eyes. He wore a red shirt with rhinestones around the collar, light blue jeans, a white apron and white shoes. He smiled when his eyes meet Oya's. "Welcome home dear."

Oya raised an eyebrow at him. "Angel, why are you here?"

"Mrs. Smith called me and said that you were going to be hard at work for a while, so, I decided to stop by." He clapped his hands together. "I'll have you know I've cleaned your bathroom, swept and mopped, did your laundry, washed your bed sheets, and I'm currently in the process of making you dinner." He smiled triumphantly.

Oya smiled and shook her head, "This is supposed to be your day off from the flower shop. You should've spent this time relaxing." She knew how hard he worked during the week, he was, in one word: impeccable.

Angel chuckled, "This is my way of relaxing. Besides, it's the job of the boyfriend to take care of the girlfriend."

"Usually it would be the other way around but, nothing is normal when it comes to our relationship."

Angel stood on his toes*, gave Oya a quick kiss on the lips, and giggled "Nope." He turned back to his cooking "I know you have to leave real soon. How about you take a bath and change? You're sweaty."

Oya shrugged her shoulders. "Why not. Just keep your attention on your work."

"No need to tell me that. I can speak for the both of us when it comes to our views on a proper relationship."

"So true." Oya walked into her bathroom, closed the door and locked it.

That seems like a good place to stop. I originally wanted to squeeze Oya going back to work in this chapter, but, I decided to save that for the next chapter.

How about I tell you guys some fun facts about this story? I originally wanted Oya to be in an abusive relationship. She would be 'dating' the son of the man who owned the hospital she worked at and she would go out with him to keep her job. However, this idea was scrapped when I developed Oya's character more. If she was ever in a situation like that she would drop-kick the guy across the room and most likely say 'go screw yourself'.

I wanted Oya to have a boyfriend because I noticed every single story that has someone fall in love with Alucard is single. I didn't want to fall in that stereotype, so, Oya has a boyfriend. Although, whether Oya will actually fall in love with Alucard has yet to be decided. :3

Another challenge I faced was creating someone who she could get along with. That's when I got the idea to create Angel. Here's something else, in a stereotypical relationship, Angel is supposed to be the 'girlfriend' while Oya is the 'boyfriend'. Oya is very masculine while Angel is going to be very feminine. I almost made him a cross dresser, but, this idea was scrapped when I realized Oya most likely wouldn't find that attractive. While she wouldn't mind seeing him in a dress, she wouldn't want him to do it all the time.

By the way, special thanks to "kiera666" for being the very first person to follow my story! :)

*The area Oya works at isn't a very good one. Everyone there has seen the consequences of being in an abusive relationship and just about everyone knows the signs of one.

*In this story Oya is the same height as Integra while Angel is a head shorter than her. Yeah, I know, Angel is a pipsqueak. I just thought it would be interesting to have him smaller than Oya.
