Most of the Canterlot Castle medical staff, had been called in and then scattered from the room Grahm had been placed in while unconscious, But when he awoke he had found himself with a needle inches from his bare skin. Now with Celestia on her way to fix the situation.
Following close behind her was Shining Armor, on duty from the Crystal Empire.
"So what exactly caused all this commotion?" Armor's voice was barley heard over the shouts coming from a few halls away.
A heavy sigh escaped the princess, "I don't quite know, but as I was told he is being very...uncontrollable."
The pair continued down the halls until they reached the specialized holding/treatment room. after dispelling the crowd around the door Celestia managed to get into the room, but what she found was probably hilarious, had the situation not been so dangerous. Inside was Grahm hiding behind an upturned gurney throwing random fireballs twords the determined nurse with the magic scrubber shot held in her hoof.
"I'll tell you one more time! Just hold still and it won't hurt, its just protocol." The nurse showed a glare not unlike what Twilight would give discord, if he burned all her books.
Grahm peeked over the gurney again fireball ready in his palm. "One more step lady-Just one more! and I swear to every higher power above me I will fry you!
Celestia cleared her throat, which almost got her mane singed by a pyro happy-twitchy demon. "What is going on?"
"He won't follow protocol!" "She's trying to stick me!"
Had it not been for almost two thousand years of practice Celestia wouldn't have been able to decipher the near instant reply's.
"Both of you are acting like spoiled foals, now how about instead of burning down the infirmary you both just leave each other alone." Both the nurse and demon nodded. "Now Grahm Please come with me." This time the solar god didn't wait for a reply.
Grahm eager to get away from the needle, quickly followed the alicorn out of the room. Traveling through the castle into the empty castle gardens. Celestia made her way across the short cut green grass to sit at was obviously planned tea table fully stocked for a long, boring discussion.
Celestia seated herself on a large cushion Grahm followed her lead, but kicked the pillow away before sitting.
"Sooo why did you bring me here?" She stared at him, what she was looking for he had no idea.
"I would like to ask why you didn't fight like I know you can, somethings made you weak what is it?" Grahm sighed and right before Celestia the immortal sun goddess seemed to grow old not physically but the very air around him seemed ancient.
"Celestia I am a being of hatred and anger...this is a world of peace and harmony. Can you tell me what would happen if the sun was put out?" she thought for a moment. tapping a hoof on her chin.
"Most of the alicorns have long since died out which means we are not inherently immortal, so if the sun was destroyed I would probably start to wither away without the near constant magic it gives me."
"So without humanity's hate I have nothing to draw strength from, that and the near fatal transport here has drained me severely, I may act young and spirited, which part of me is...But even compared to me this planet is a newborn." the princess nodded, her eyes betraying her sorrow for the demon's plight.
"So I owe you my life as does Luna, but how will we deal with this problem?" Grahm smiled some of the age slipping from him. "We won't, eventually I'll deplete my reserves and die." Her jaw hung open.
"surely you cannot be serious-" "I am if I die here so far from the hate and anger that has banned my existence then I shall die in peace, as for the time between now and then I'll sit back and let life surprise me." With that he stood bowed to the princess and walked back into the castle halls.
POV GRAHM
It seems somber and cruel but in all rights I deserved to slowly wither away in agony for all the things I've done. From killing billions of innocent lives all the way down to insulting lust at every chance I could get. I sighed, then jumped when the pink bundle of random popped over my shoulder.
"Hiya Grahm." I chuckled. "Hello Pinkie Pie." her grin faded a bit.
"Why the long face?" ouch right in the heart, that little head cocking like that really just makes these ponies too cute."
"Oh nothing Pinkie, just had a bit of a serious talk with the princess that's all." she made an O with her lips, nodding a bit before laying her head on my shoulder, still firmly clamped to my back. "You're warm." Her sleepy tone and slack muscles told me she was getting drowsy.
"Is that a bad thing?" she snuggled her head into the crook of my neck. "Huh uh, Comfy." then she was asleep. I smiled and wrapped by arms under her legs to make sure she didn't fall off.
I wound through the halls with the sleeping mare until I found the main exit and stepped out onto the Canterlot streets. While the haughty air of everypony (gets me every time) made the trip a little sour but the sight of the city itself was beautiful. Though most of the city was residential it had quite a few businesses thrown about. I got quite a few panicked looks and even had ponies full out run away. Pinkie stirring quickly drew my attention.
"Hmmm where we at?" Geeze one dose of warmth and Pinkie becomes catatonic. "Well I got a few bits that I need to spend so I figured I go shopping, you were asleep so I just left you back there."
She didn't respond for a while. "Twilight was wrong." I blinked, she hadn't even opened her eyes. "Twilight said you where bad because the elements turned you into a statue like discord. But I know that's not true. If you where really bad you wouldn't have been able to get out just like Discord." I grinned openly. "So what do the rest of you think of me hmm?"
"She tilted her head trying to get comfy again. "Fluttershy is SUPER DUPER scared of you, Applejack thinks your lying to everybody but that spell Celestia used makes you always tell us the truth. Dashie thinks your a challenge but I think she likes having you around to make her work harder. Rares is almost as scared of you as Fluttershy is."
I nodded. "So what do YOU think pinks?" For awhile she was quite while I walked through the market browsing goods and terrifying ponies.
"I like you."
There you go guys one more chap. sorry for the long wait please leave me a comment on what you think.

Seriously? I haven't even read the fic yet, and that's already turned me off it.
Thank you shadow I think I'll credit you when she shows up in a chap. Btw if anyone can find the time I'm looking for a drawing of Grahm in his human form and while he's ignited.
Most people should read the story before the comments or it can throw you off, it's happened to me on multiple occasions
3633137 Okay think of it this way. A large angry being you've never seen just tricked you into revealing the princess' location. how would you react?
...i read the summury in King Bradly's voice
Interesting concept, sub par execution.
1. The beginning heavily reeked of misanthropy, but it could be somewhat forgiven due to the story itself involving the seven deadly sins.
2. The use of the elements of harmony was illogical and the only reason I can see for the ponies using them is "He know too much. Kill him with rainbows."
3. Breaking out of his stony imprisonment that held a being that could manipulate reality on a whim.
4. Wrath says he's not evil but contradicts himself the next time he speaks.
There's probably more but couldn't make it past the second chapter of this story.
Okay I know this story needs work, hell I can only write on the weekend's anyway even this comment is just from my phone
Grahm belittles himself because he thinks he is evil that fact alone makes him not evil so the elements did as the girls wanted but had no real affect.
Discord was chaos the elements hold dominion over him ergo he couldn't get out without help. Wrath is just a negative emotion not exactly evil but not quite good either.

I'd ask it what it wants, or cower in fear.
I definitely wouldn't blast it with the power equivalent of a nuke.
Seriously. The Elements of Harmony should be the LAST resort, not the first.
I know but it seems every villan is just shoot it with the elements then bam! World saved...
Oh but not the sins hehehe nooo, they don't get an easy out this time!
