Pinkamena approached her sister in a mix of caution and worry.

"Soure?" she asked, prompting the crying mare to look up at her.

"G-go away, I hate you" the former element of laughter said inbetween sobs.

"No you don't" Pinkamena said soothingly. "You're just-"

"Yes I do!" Pinkie exclaimed "I hate everything! I hate you, I hate parties, I hate my friends a-and I hate myself!"

Pinkamena was at a loss, her sister was a wreck in front of her and there was nothing she could do.

"Come on Authoress throw me bone, give me something to work with" she muttered as Pinkie continued to cry.

"Oh Pinkamena I had no idea you were secretly a dog" Discord said mockingly as he appeared before the two mares.

"Piss off" she snapped.

"Really now is that anyway to treat your new king?" Discord scoffed. "You should be thanking me, after all, I got you out of that stuffy place you call Pinkie's mind, it must have been so boring in there..."

"Do you even see what you've done?" Pinkamena asked hotly, ignoring the chaos lord's jab."You've turned equestria into a living Tartarus!".

"You know what they say, you can't have too much of a good thing" he replied before lifting her up to his eye level wiuth his tail.

"You're all bark and no bite" Doscord mocked. "You're supposed to be the tough one...And yet all it took was an oddly dressed mare and a peom to send you running. What is it that scares you so much Pinkamena?"

He dropped her and began circle around her in an alomst shark-like fashion.

"Look at your sister dear Pinkamena, she hates you, she wants nothing to do with you" he hissed. "You're so different from everypony that you let wittle Pinkie Pie make friends while you sit in your corner of the universe alone"

"So what? I just want what's best for her, who cares if I don't get a spot in the limelight" Pinkamena replied.

"Oh is that all? Funny, that's not what other ponies think..."

"What are you talking about?" she asked skeptically.

"Oh nothing..." Discord replied causlly with a wave of his claw.

"Tell me!" Pinkamena demanded and Discord smirked as he snapped his fingers.

Voices and sounds filled her ears as Pinakmena listened to countless ponies making fun of her sister behind her back.

"That Pinkie Pie is weird, who in their right mind would eat hot sauce covered cupcakes?"

"That pink mare is irresponsible, did you see the kind of baked goods she gave to nearly half the toen? She even poisoned herself along with them!".

"We're facing a crisis and what does Pinkie Pie do? gather enough instruments for a marching band, what is she, crazy?"

"Did you see how she outright insulted Nightmare Moon? Was she trying to get herself killed?".

"Pinkie has more screws loose than anypony I've ever met!"

"Don't you see? All your efforts are in vain Pinkamena, going in hiding to hide your true nature? Thinking a life helping the mare you call sister will vanquish you're nightmares about what you've seen, what you know?" Discord sneered.

"You don't belong and no matter what you do neither will she!"

"I-I tried so hard, I just wanted her to be happy beciase-because.."

"Because you never will be" Discord finished for her, his eyes beginning to change into a multi-coloured swirling hypnotic pattern as he looked gazes with pnikamena.

"Your selflessness has led you astray, the world's harshness has taken your sister away, so no longer will you play nice, when the world around you bites, fight back with hoof and knife!" Discord said.

"No I-I...." it was obivous Pinakmena was trying to fight his magic, but soon her ears drooped and the colour began to fade from her body.

But just as rapidly as her descent into chaos began, it stopped.

"What?" Discord exclaimed, confused as to how she could fight him off.

"I refuse to turn into the monster the world believes me to be, I am not a murderer, I am not Cupcakes, and I am most certaintly not you!" she spat at him, determination burning in her eyes.

"I am Pinkamena Rosette Pie" she continued. "I may have my own inner demons, who doesn't? But I do not let them rule my life!"

She walked past the spirit of chaos and wrapped her forelegs around her sister in a hug.

"Pinkie you have to fight it, remember how we got our cutie mark?" Pinkamena said locking her gaze onto the snivelling mare as she looked up at her.

"Remember when we threw that party for Granny Pie's one hundreth' birthday? Or the day we moved to Ponyville?"

Dim recongnition sparked to life in Pinkie's eyes, the mare's crying stopped by the flow of memories to accompany Pinkamena's words.

"Remember all the times you got upset and I cheered you up? Or all those nightmares I had which you helped me get over?"

"Uh-huh" Pinkie replied softly.

"What about the time we started that club for ponies that can break the forth wall? We even got the princesses to endorse it!"

Pinkie giggled at her sister's enthusiasm, the colour slowly returning to her.

"That club is still going strong, we meet up every week and talk about how ridiculous the fandom has gotten, remeber that one meeting where Octavia and Vinyl found out about the idea of the bronies shipping them? Or that Princess Celestia discovered her nickname 'Trollestia'?".

"That was hayliarious!" Pinkie exclaimed and burst into a fit of laughter as her colour returned in full.

"It was wasn't it?" Pinakmena replied with a small smile.

"GASP! I just realised something!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"What?"

"It's Discord's first time in Ponyville, do you know what that means?".

"Oh gag!" the draconeqqus in questions stated. "I'm out of here, I've had engough of this sap.."

"But what about you're 'Welcome to Ponyville' party..." Pinkie said sadly, looking up at Discord with wide, sad eyes.

"What?" He replied, dumbfounded.

"Ever since we moved here, we made a new tradition here in Ponyville, eveypony who visits the town for the first time gets a proper welcome party" Pinkamena explained.

"A party for...Me?" Discord asked in confusion.

"Of course silly! Everypony, griffon, dragon and draconequus deserves their own Pinkie Pie style pary!" Pinkie replied cheerfully, streamers flying from her forehooves as she raised them in the air as she said 'party'.

"Nopony has ever done anything like that for me before..." Discord trailed off, unsure of how to react to the situation.

Pinakmena walked up to him and offered a hoof and an encouraging smile.

"Just do what I do mon ami{/i], relax and have fun".

Author's Note

Ok so this went a bit darker than what I was planning, but eh it works i guess.

I was going to have a musical number here, but I felt that it would be kinda tacked on.

You'll noticed I bumped the rating up and removed the romance tag, this is more along the lines of a bidding friendship really...

Next chapter is the aftermath of the party, Pinkamena saying her goodbyes and so on.

EDIT: I think i got all the errors
