Author's note:

Ok - so this is the third episode of my CSI Miami series - and as per the request of my fans (all 2 of them) this is going to have a lot more action in it as well as a lot more insight into the relationship and the history between Horatio and Jamie as well as some development in the Speed/ Jamie front (as if you didn't know that was where I was headed!!!)

So anyway.this chapter is especially important to me because this is the chapter I was kind of planning from the start - I just wanted to establish the characters in the first two chapters before I start with the whole personal history thing.

So this time reviews are gonna be even more important because I really need to know what you think in order to decide if I'm going to do another episode - it's all up to you people - you decide if this little continuing saga is going to come to an end or not.

Let me know!

Hope you enjoy this and have fun reading it!

PROLOGUE

"Hey, I'll have an omelet and some coffee" Speed told the waitress as he sat down in the side booth of the small diner "I see you already started without me."

"Sorry" Jamie smiled and took another bite of her omelet talking with a full mouth "I was hungry"

"I can see that" He smirked. He leaned when the waitress came by and waited while she poured his coffee. Jamie eyed him with a smirk over her plate as she continued eating.

"So you call me at 5 am." Speed started as soon as the waitress was gone

"I'm sorry did I wake you?" Jamie gave him a smile that would have looked innocent if it wasn't for the mischievous gleam in her eyes.

"No I was playing Hockey." He retorted sarcastically, causing her to laugh "So you wake me up at 5 am, asking me to have breakfast with you and then you go ahead and start with out me."

"Well I called you because I hate eating alone" Jamie finished off her plate and took a sip out of her coffee

"And you started without me because???"

"You were late!"

"So what do we have here?" Horatio asked as he knelt down next to Alexx.

"Female, mid twenties, seems like a blunt force trauma to the head" Alexx started giving him the particulars of the case "Time of death is about 3 or 4 hours ago"

Horatio checked his watch "Well it's 12 pm right now, so that means she was killed at about 8 or 9 am"

He looked around and surveyed the scene around them. They were in the outskirts of a public park, a few yards from them he could see a playground filled with children and mothers all going about their businesses. The road was a few feet away to the other side, every once in a while a car would drive by.

He got up and put on his sunglasses, still looking around but this time at his team - picking up evidence around them "So how does a young woman gets killed in a public park in broad daylight with no one seeing a thing?"

"Horatio!" He heard Speed call him and walked over to where him and Jamie were crouching, inspecting something closely.

"What is it?"

"This is" Jamie said gravely, showing him a bag and pulling out a doll out of it.

"This is her bag" Speed explained, "It's filled with toys and kids stuff"

"You think she was here praying on kids?" Horatio asked, directing his attention at Jamie, looking on as she looked around the scene and absorbed everything in

"No H, I think she was here WITH kids"
