Hey guys!
I'm so sorry for not updating in ages, but things were so insane around here… anyway, I hope you didn't totally lose interest.
LadyGranuaille- as far as the typos are concerned, thank you for mentioning it; I'll pay more attention in the future. As for the whole Joker being nice thing, I tried to make it clear that he's playing an angle there, so it's not as though he's actually nice. Finally, I can't tell you what the ending will be, but I can tell you that I'm sticking with Mr. J's character as portrayed by the awesome Heath Ledger (R.I.P).
/9/ Silver Lining
I woke up as soon as I felt the sunlight on my face.
For the most part, I stayed in the room, gazing out the window, into a vacant lot, with a lot on my mind.
The past couple of months have been so crazy, and in the last twenty four hours, the insanity peaked.
Kidnapped by the Joker, the Joker, only to have him go all split personality on me and become my new BFF…
Honestly, I had no idea what to make of all this.
Finally, I felt so exhausted, that I simply decided to let it all go, and disappear into sweet, sweet, precious slumber.

A light shake awoke me from my sleep after nightfall.
As I regained focus, I realized it was the Joker who had awoken me. Damn it just let me sleep!
''I have a little surprise for you…'' he said in the eerily nice voice of his.
Surprise? What the heck kind of surprise could he possibly have…
That's when I noticed the familiar scent of blood…
OMG!!!!!!! What if he cut my legs off while I was asleep???
Frantically, I looked around me, but saw no scarlet stains… no blood…
The next thing I know, he's sitting in front of me with what looks like a silver tray…
He opens the lid and…
''AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!''
To my surprise and horror, I see the decapitated head of a man on the tray… Jesus Christ…
''What? I thought this is what you wanted!''
''When did I request a chopped off head?''
''Last night!''
Hold on…
''This is the Fingernail Killer?''
The Joker responded by nodding enthusiastically.
''How did you know who he was? I mean the police,''
''Are idiots. I have connections, doll face.''
I had to admit, I was quite impressed.
I know how twisted it sounds, but honestly, I'm glad this loser became the pray of a bigger fish, he deserved what he got and worse.
''So?'' he asked.
''The son of a bitch got his just deserts.'' I answered coldly.
I really didn't feel anything anymore, all my initial terror faded away, and malicious content took its place.
Then, the damnest thing happened.
Joker smirked, tossed the trash, and kissed me. On the lips.
Needless to say, bewilderment doesn't even begin to describe how I felt.

Author's POV
He couldn't believe how simple this was turning out to be.
This girl obviously was in desperate need for attention, because he just delivered
her a decapitated head, and she was falling into his arm, literally.
Not only did she allow him to kiss her, she was cooperating as well! What more could he have possibly hoped for… and all at the price of offing some loser.
The poor shmok wasn't even the real killer!
When they finally broke the kiss for a fresh supply of oxygen, she asked,
''Why are you like this with me? You know, sweet…''
''Because… I like you, baby cakes, I really do.''
And she was buying in to it; it won't be long now…
Of course he harbored no true emotion for; she was just the newest pawn in his series of mind fucks.
She, like everyone else on the planet, meant absolutely noting to him.
Absolutely noting.
