Title: Chaos Theory
Word Count: 5, 805
Pairings: Bruce/Joker, Harvey/Rachel, everything else is canon
Disclaimer: I do not own BB, TDK, or its characters, a fact they are quite grateful for, because at least in canon they do not have to actually deal with this torture I put them through.
Rating: PG-15
Warnings: suspense, menace, violence, language, minor slash, references to torture and a ton of other terrible-ness
Fic Summary: Post BB. Ra's is back, but not even Batman or Joker could have anticipated a revenge quite this cruel. Now Gotham City's entire population must put aside all differences, embrace two unmasked leaders, and reconcile two extremes - or perish.
A/N: If you choose to read this, know that it's a DRASTICALLY different concept than anything else I've ever seen written in this fandom. It's a long shot as to plausibility, but I tried to make it as legitimate as possible. This chapter takes place well into the story's plot, which began/deviated from movie canon about 45 minutes or so into TDK. So Rachel isn't dead, Harvey's not insane, and lots of other people are thusly not dead/insane either.
And please share your thoughts on this one, I'm very interested to see what people think about the concept, no matter what those thoughts are. :)
