Hey guys i've been planning this story for a while now. It's a romance between an existing smallville character and one that I've made, not sure how I'm going to spin it yet. Hope you guys enjoy the story and I hope for as much feedback as possible.

Chloe sat in the her chair at the tower chewing her lip, deep in thought. For the past month the woman had been trying to find the reason for Luthercorp's jump in security and she was running out of leads. She had combed through every file and firewall she could get her hands on. The only thing out of the ordinary she had found was a large order of Tetracordaline.

She was drawn away by her phone vibrating on her desk, she checked the call history and saw she had eight missed calls from Clark.

"Hey, sorry I was digging through Luthercorp again. What's up?", she asked rubbing her eyes.

"Anything new so far?", he said sounding worried as usual. He had been that way ever since she had met him all those years ago. Always saving and lying to the world.

"No but I can't get that chemical shipment out of my head. They're bringing in huge amounts of Tetracordaline. Huge even for Luthercorp."

"What's the chemical for? I recognize the name but I don't remember what it is exactly.", he asked.

"It's horse tranq for elephants.", she said checking the shipping location. "And they're shipping it to Lumberton, Mississippi. Ever head of it?"

"No but I'll go and have a look. What's the address?"

"76a yawn school road. I think I'm going to come with you." She said grabbing her jacket and purse.

"What? No it is too dangerous.", he basically shouted into the speaker.

"Listen, I've been staring at this screen for weeks working on this. You can either come with me or I'll book a flight myself.", she said walking out the door.

"Fine but I'm calling Oliver to keep an eye on you.", he said rolling his eyes. Two hours later they were on a plane headed to what may be the only town in the country smaller than Smallville.

As the trio stepped off the plane, they were struck by how small this town really was. The airstrip that the plane landed on was covered in pinestraw and branches.

"Ok. Why am I here?", Oliver said dropping his luxurious leather bag.

"Luthercorp is being suspicious?", Chloe said doubting there was anything to be found after all. The three grabbed their luggage and climbed into one of the three rental cars at the airstrip and drove down the long road winding towards town.
