The emotions hit and Sunset falls to her knees. The sobs leave before she can stop them, as it all hits, goes through her mind like an eternity and a moment. It hurts, it hurts, it hurts-
She was made for this.
She is breathing heavy, tears falling, and her form glowing as she pushes herself to her feet. It hurts, it feels like a heart attack, it feels like its tearing her apart-
Its an empty void. Rage and hurt and emptiness and she knew that. That feeling that had made her lose her mind to corruption, that made her want to hurt any and all who got in her way. That made her dominate and control others-
For her own fantasy.
"I'm still standing!" She shouts, voice tough and rough as she forces herself to be here, to help.
She remembers what came after. The light, the warmth, the promise that there was another way. She didn't have to be empty, she didn't have to hurt, she could have warmth in her life again.
"And you don't have to be special. You just. Have to accept a hand offered to you-" Like she was. When Twilight dragged her out of that pit. When her friends stood beside her when everyone hated her. When after losing everything over and over, there were still people who were willing to accept her.
Pain and all.
And she pushes back. Back along the connection into her mind. Sharing the warmth of her friends. Twilight's forgiveness, the understanding of another. The genorosity of Rarity after all she did. Fluttershy's kindness aftet fear. Applejack's gentle honesty after years of harsh lies. Rainbow Dash's loyalty after so much backstabbing. Pinkie Pie's laughter after so many tears.
Loki's belief in her, that he still trusts her after seeing her at her worst.
She pushes that warmth back, with the understanding of what its like to feel hollow, to have nothing, and to find something else to live for that didn't have to destroy.
"So please, just accept help!" Sunset shouted through tears and pain and a glow that would not leave her form, a warmth that bolstered her through pain, as she steps forward, hands extended.
