So here's a little background so you're not completely confused while reading the story. It's a crossover between Smallville and CSI Miami and it's based in about Smallville season 9 and current CSI Miami but with Alexx and not Tom. I'm going to try and stay true to both show's storylines and history as much as possible but there will be some differences. A pretty big difference is that it will be based in Metropolis and while it will have the characters of CSI Miami, the lab will be in Metropolis and not Miami. That might seem a little bit weird considering its CSI Miami and not CSI Metropolis but I don't think it will matter too much. I'm not going to blabber on too much now cause I'll just work out the details as the story goes along. Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me, they belong to CBS and the CW/WB so don't sue cause I'm broke anyway. Oh and this is my first fanfiction so I hope it's not too bad and please review and let me know what you think.

Clark Kent sped around the streets of Metropolis helping those in need and spreading his symbol of hope over the city. He was proud of what he had achieved over the past few months and he knew that the citizens of Metropolis felt safer knowing that the Blur would be there to clean up the streets and keep the crime rate down.

A loud bang and a scream of pain pulled him from his thoughts and he super sped to the scene of the crime, a woman had been shot and a man was standing over her. Clark was about to run and help the woman when he felt a familiar sensation, Kryptonite. He felt it's effects immediately and found himself slowing down and as the woman's attacker realised he's been seen he ran towards Clark. The men struggled and Clark saw the source of his pain, a Kryptonite bracelet on the other man's wrist. He felt himself getting weaker and as he felt the cold metal of the gun on his skin he knew he had to act fast. He managed to get the gun out of the assailant's hands and throw it a distance away but the man ran after it and Clark moved into an alleyway in an attempt to distance himself from the Kryptonite. But the man followed and being unable to find the gun that Clark had tossed, he held a knife and was wielding it at Clark. At this point Clark was too weak to put up any more of a fight and he felt the knife penetrating his flesh.

"The notorious Blur isn't as tough as he seems." The other man laughed at Clark as he fell to the ground and he realised that it was the stupid bracelet he'd seen it a pawn shop that seemed to be causing the Blur so much pain. Of course there was the stab wound too but the bracelet was different, it seemed to weaken the city's beloved protector to the core. The man removed his bracelet and kneeled down beside Clark.

"Let's see how you like this, tough guy." The man grinned at Clark as he placed the bracelet around his wrist.

Clark screamed in agony but the man didn't care, he just laughed and then walked away leaving Clark there to die.

Horatio Caine was sleeping soundly when he heard his mobile phone start to ring. He had not long ago gotten to sleep after pulling a double shift the previous day and already he was being awoken for yet another case. He grumbled and reached over for his phone.

"Caine." He answered dryly, longing to go back to sleep but knowing that duty called he climbed out of bed and got ready for another long day ahead.

It was just the same thing day in and day out. Someone was murded and they had to try and catch the monster behind the act, it never stopped. He loved his job, he really did. He loved helping victims and bringing justice to those who assaulted them but he wished that for just one day people would be civilised and stopping killing one another. It never stopped.

Soon he arrived at the crime scene and saw Alexx already examining the body and Calleigh photographing the scene.

"Ladies." He greeted as he walked under the yellow tape and began searching the scene.

The women greeted him in return and Alexx proceeded with giving him the details of the body.

"Shot in the back Horatio, poor baby wouldn't have even seen it coming. It looks as though she never even saw her attacker, there are no defensive wounds and by the looks of this bullet wound she would have bled out pretty quickly. It's a through and through so there should be a bullet around here somewhere Calleigh."

"Yeah it's over here embedded in the brick wall, it looks pretty damaged though so I doubt we'll be able to get a match." Calleigh said disappointedly as she pulled the bullet out of the wall.

"Well we'll have to find something else to get him with then wont we but we'll get him. And these footprints here might be just what we need to do that." Horatio announced but as confident as he sounded he wasn't sure they would be able to live up to his statement entirely. While he had little doubt in his mind that his team would catch the man or woman responsible for the young lady's murder; he was unsure what the overall outcome would be. The justice system was becoming increasingly corrupt and more and more judges were handing out short or suspended sentences to those who deserved to be put away for life; it infuriated him.

"Ooh juicy." Calleigh said as she examined the footprints, pulling Horatio from his thoughts.

"Yes they are and they appear to be leading away from the scene so I'm gonna go check that out and you continue processing the scene."

Calleigh nodded and went back to what she was doing as Horatio followed the trail of footsteps into a small alleyway not far from the scene.
