Hello guys and gals! This is my first Joker fanfic, so I hope it's good! Reviews would be awesome!!! This story is set 2 months after the Dark Knight. I want to get Jokers character JUST right, so please give me feedback on how I'm doing!!!I don't own the Joker (dangit) or any other character from The Dark Knight, but Harmony and any other new character belong to me (mwaahahahah!!!) Anywho, enjoy the story!!! In the words of the coolest villain ever…and here…we…GO!

Of all the places my dad forced me to move to…why Gotham? Well, I shouldn't really say "forced" because I don't really hate that we're moving, just the fact that we're moving to Gotham. Couldn't he have moved me somewhere that didn't have giant bats beating up evil clowns?(heeeheee) My dad( being the kind soul that he is) came to Gotham to help fight crime. No he's not some vigilante trying to combat crime on his own; he's a cop. With all the corruption and madness going on in Gotham, he decided to lend a helping hand in cleaning up the city. So my parents and I left our quiet lives in Green Bay, Wisconsin to enter the dense, crime ridden muck heap that is Gotham City.

After a grueling plane ride, and slightly-less agonizing car ride; we arrived at our new apartment. It's…nice…well as nice as you can get in Gotham. I hauled myself and my luggage up the stairs, and into the open door. I placed my luggage on the floor as my mother emerged from the kitchen in the back room.

"You like it honey?!" My mom inquired with disturbing enthusiasm.

"Yeah I guess."I answered with noticeably NO enthusiasm.

You see, my mom is absolutely ECSTATIC about moving. She always wanted to get away from her home town and get on to bigger and better things. Why she would be even remotely excited about moving to this abyss of despair is beyond me.

"Well it's bigger! Isn't that great?!I think this move is going to be good for all of us."She said, still trying to increase my excitement.

"Yeah that's a plus!"I said with fake emotion, trying to humor my mother.

I grabbed my suitcase and pillow and trudged down the hallway to the last door on the right. As I scope the room, I take in the size of the place. It IS bigger than my old room. Yay for me I suppose.

I retreat to the bathroom and look at the somewhat begrimed mirror. Blegh…travel hair. I grabbed a brush from my suitcase pocket and tried to pick through the knots of my shortish-blonde mane.

"Harmony! Come help with these boxes will ya!" My dad yelled from the kitchen.

I sighed as I made my way to the kitchen where my dad was struggling to keep hold of a massive stack of boxes filled with our possessions. I grabbed two of the boxes just before they came toppling down in an avalanche of cardboard and tape.

My dad let out an exasperated breath "Thanks hon. You saved your mom's good dishes from a near catastrophe."

"No problem."I said, laughing a bit at the thought of my dad falling in a heap of cardboard boxes.

After a few hours of unpacking box after box, my dad finally called in for a pizza. When I was finished devouring the deliciousness that is pizza, I went to my box-filled room and changed into my pajamas.

I lied on my bed and thought about my life back in Green Bay. Due to all the crap I had to deal with there, I didn't really mind leaving; but coming to this breeding ground for psychos in costumes just…confused me! Usually people move someplace better! Not someplace worse! I didn't want to live in a place where everyone was always scared out of their minds!

Frustrated, I got under my covers and tried to think of something that wouldn't make me go off on a ranting frenzy.

Lying in my bed consumed in my own thoughts, I finally drifted to sleep, never thinking that my somewhat normal life would be drastically altered by a man in a purple suit.

Sorry my pretties…no Joker yet. But fear not!! There SHOULD be some joker in the next chap! If not the next chapter, then for SURE chapter 3. Sorry it was kinda boring. First chapters are sometimes like that. You will get to know Harmony more, and get to know all the "crap" she had to deal with at her old hometown. So review please!!! And I will update with Joker awesomeness soon!!! Ta ta!!!
