“Fuck the police!” I yelled loudly as I spotted the cops before I started to run.
“Hey! Stop!”
The cops ran after me, straight past Twilight's hiding place. Just as planned. We needed to get her and the Element back to Equestria.
The plan was working exactly as planned. Shit, it's working exactly as planned! The cops were now completely after me!
Now I just need to bring them on a merry chase for a while and loop around to the portal. I chanced a glance backwards. Damn, for a pair of old fat guys, they could really run!
Taking a turn around a corner, I quickly started around the school, running as fast as I could before taking a quick left behind the bushes on the grounds as soon as I was out of sight and stopping, struggling to keep my breathing under control.
Listening hard, I could hear footsteps run past and disappear.
Close one.
Waiting another fifteen seconds, I started to sneak back the way we came. Hopefully that was enough to get Princess Twilight through the portal unchallenged.
Better risk me getting caught than that she was. We HAD to get her and the element back to Equestria at all costs.
“Stop right there, you little punk!”
I glanced back and started to book it again. Damn it, they figured it out!
Running back the way we came, I once again rounded the school and headed straight for the statue. Running around it, I stopped and gasped for breath for a couple of seconds before I turned and walked through the rock side of the mirror.
Reality twisted and warped around me as things stretched out to a tiny point and everything went white.
XXXXXXXXXX
Slowly returning to consciousness, I stirred, forcing my eyes open. I was laying on the floor in front of the mirror.
“Page!”
Luna was suddenly next to me, helping me up with her magic, her wing going across my back. “You came back, you are safe!”
Letting out a breath, I nodded and looked myself over. Nope, same age as when I left. Fuck inter-dimensional physics if there even was such a thing. It didn't make any sense.
“Yeah.” I answered. “Twilight, the crown, Sunset?”
“Sunset is wearing a dampening ring and is locked in the dungeons. Twilight and her crown are safe.” Luna reassured me. “Page...”
“Don't.” I said, looking around. The room was empty aside from a glaring Skitter at the other end of it. She was probably about as happy with me as I was with Luna.
Channeling my magic, I cast a bubble of silence around us before I pulled away from Luna, glaring up at her. “Explain.”
She reared back slightly. “I... I asked Celestia about it. After you first showed me humans in your dreams. The magical energy of the mirror is similar to the one that sent you to Equestria, but it's not identical, it is similar, we knew that. She thought we were to wait with telling you about it until it opened. Give you the option to stay or go there but... if you knew too early it would make it harder for you to adapt to life in Equestria.”
“And when we got together? You should have told me.”
“I know. I was going to.” Luna said quietly. “I just... I just was afraid. It was your home. Or closer to it than Equestria, in any case. We didn't want to lose you.”
I slowly shook my head. “Luna... I'm not sure what to say to you right now.”
“I'm sorry.”
“I know.” I sighed and closed my eyes before I shook my head again. “In three years when it opens again, I'm going through it...”
Luna looked like I had just slapped her. “...Oh...” she said softly, swallowing.
“...to get some things.” I finished, looking up at her. “Luna... I told you before. Equestria is my home now. Even if that did lead back home, I'm staying in Equestria.”
“Page, I...”
“That doesn't mean I'm happy with you.” I stated before I moved up and gave her a quick nuzzle. “I love you, Luna. But I'm still angry with you. So perhaps it's best if we stay apart for a while.”
Luna swallowed and blinked, starting to tear up. I quickly looked away. If I saw her crying, I would fold like a wet blanket.
“I'm going to travel Equestria for the summer.” I said as I turned away from her. “When I get back to Canterlot, we will talk.”
“I'm so sorry, Page.”
“I know.” I sighed before I left the bubble of silence. “Come on, Skitter. Let's see when the next train leaves for Equestria.”
The changeling was blinking in confusion as she looked between me and Luna before she nodded. “...Yes, sir.”
:(
Okay this might not be good, the Human Mane 6 (Minus Twilight) never regain their friendship with each other, what are you going to do about that, also what about the sirens won't they still have felt SOME magic from the Element of Magic coming into the Human world?
Oh damn
The adventure BEGINS!
But woona...
Pick up that phone!!!!
I F#%*ING CALLED IT!!!
I wonder what will happen to Sunset, without the Orbital Friendship Canon redemption.
sad moment, but it is a good moment for the story
this is a interesting turn of events.
After some thought... Sunset folded a way too fast. Keep in mind that portal sit directly in front of the CHS. There also a close road with cars and bystanders. So Page need to drag kicking and screaming Sunset in front of said school. In plain day. With occasional car and bystanders. There IMO a very small chance that he able to drag and drop her in portal before anyone intervene. So unless she impressed by his warmage title it kinda strange that she agree to return to Equestria just because Page issued a couple of threats.

I know, I already said that. There's nothing to stop them from making trouble at mexican fastfood places (tacos! nom!) and if they ever get greedy, they could get more bold, growing in strength while spreading disharmony. Heck, just stop by a debate while the democrats tear each other a new one. They wouldn't even have to do anything.
6906433 But what about the Movies, shouldn't they still happen in this fanfic, I mean look at the Mane Human 5 they are all broken up and they used to be good friends, but Sunset destroyed that, they still need to get back together as friends and without Twilight there to fix it then it might not happen, also the Sirens could still feel the Magic from the Element of Magic and the Portal so they could still show up at the school to try and find the source of the magic.
Kinda rude of Twilight not to stick around. She just assumed he would be fine? Even if she knew of the impending spat. "Princess of Friendship" indeed.
Sad about the break between Page and Luna. Good thing he didn't dump her outright. Here you can screen your calls, how can you screen your dreams?
The anarchist of Equestria welcome Blank Page in their rank.
6906461
You know what? I think that on the contrary, giving them some space to sort thing out was the correct decision.
6906447
It's a Naruto crossover.
Home in Banishment.
6906477 Yes, but when she left he was running from the "guards" so she could make a break for it. She should of been their to see he made it back and then left.
I'm gonna assume Luna was being proactive and told her to go.
6906538 That is what I assumed.
That and Celestia shoving her in a bed with a doctor nearby to ake sure that she is all rigth. Or something similar.
Don't forget that BP still needs to have words with Celestia regarding the lack of security on magical items. Also, I hope you don't leave us hanging with Sunset's fate....
In regards to others' comments about EG world, the Sirens won't come by the school since it was the Rainbow beam that caught their attention. As for the HuMane 5, they'll just continue their lives as thought nothing's changed and SciTwi will probably go onto Everton's private study program.
Well that was the mature thing to do, he doesn't trust himself enough to talk to Luna so he will try to bend out steam before they talk, and will be exploring the world for a while…AFTER he has a talk to Celestia how their doomsdale devices are apparently secure by a wooden door with a simple lock and their counterparts, have a even better security.
Also, what is he going to, collect in that other world once it open? ipods? video games? nintendos? I think he will probably will had to find a way to turn his golden bits into dollar if that is the case
Would it be weird or interesting if Chrysalis joined Page in his trip across Equestria and outside it? Because Skitter likely felt the emotions between page and luna, watching their facial expressions then conclusion with how he keeps his distance from her would be easy to tell they are in a rough patch. Though how will everyone else take it when luna tells her sister that page wanted a break from their relationship, because she withheld information from him on what he considered a important subject they both knew of.
It would be rather funny if Celestia and the others try to help mend their relationship, while Chrysalis might be a manipulator she is far more honest if by her intentions. (Because we all know she is watching him with interest, otherwise would have been ignored like the rest.) Also the trip and who goes with him could offer more character building, though what if a 'new' night guard was assigned to him on his trip? (that being Luna in disguise.)
What those cops must be thinking after they saw Page run through a statue and disappear....
6906590 With Sunset not causing drama, the mane 5 probably will reconcile on there own.
Still, a shame 'bout Sunset.
Later that day, an unwitting policeman fell through the portal, hopelessly alone, afraid, and equine.
6906819 They saw him run in that direction, but I don't think Page is stupid enough to run through it full tilt with cops after him. This way they saw him run in that direction, but don't know where he went. And no-one's going to try checking 'in' the statue.
6906273
Unintened consequences of doing things the logical way instead of the Hollywood way.
6906273 The only reason they went to the school was because they saw the rainbow blast that shot in the air with out that they might not ever even go to the school to cause trouble, and the humain 5 can still figure their friendship problem on their own now that sunset is not there to run interference.
6906913 FUND IT.
Not bad overall bit you still loose points for doing an equestria girls plot
6906273 the sirens only noticed anything when the great big rainbow lightshow occured. No big lightshow, sirens don't notice.
Well, I guess screw the mirror friendships.
Welp..... they've just fucked up the future of that world. All hail Siren teenager army of doom.
Aside from the logic problems. Why do some people hate EQ girls?

Because most of us are in this for adorable ponies, not gangly quasi-humans. Seriously, most of the EG designs are just creepy-looking, in an uncanny valley sorta way, except the ones that were originally designed for it (Sunset Shimmer) and the ones who lucked out on color scheme (Applejack and Pinkie Pie). Twilight looks like she's got a whole-body bruise, Rarity is paler than your average corpse, and the less said about Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, the better.
The basic setup doesn't help. They look similar to the ponies we care about, but they aren't. This Rainbow Dash never performed a sonic rainboom. This Rarity was never kidnapped by diamond dogs. They never faced Nightmare Moon or Discord. They've got the same names and very similar personalities, but they're strangers. And the movies never even try to build that connection. Instead, they try to sell the notion that these people are just the same as the ponies, only human. The whole thing feels... shallow and gimmicky.
And of course, the logic issues and gaping plot holes you've already mentioned.
There's no visual, emotional, or intellectual appeal, so is it any wonder that so many people find it unappealing?

More along the lines of knowing that if he tries to deal with it right away he's gonna say or do things he might not be able to take back. Sometimes temporarily walking away to cool off is the best option especially with how stressed he is on a regular basis and his usual reactions to those that cause said stress.
When he was running from the police I was thinking 'woop woop that's the sound of tha police'
6906913
Well, at least the princesses will know what to do. They've shown nothing but foresight, wisdom, and intelligence. Oh, wait, no they haven't. Yeah, that officer's screwed.
PS: I feel a Star Wars quote coming on. This is an unexpected move the the police. It's too aggressive. Lord Maul, be mindful. Let them make the first move.
I know this chapter was written a couple year ago, but THIS shit, right here. Is how Equestria girls should've gone. Kick Sunset shimmer into the portal; smash and grab the crown.
That universe even in 2018 still has no reason to exist in my opinion.
8918338
EQG exists for one reason
NEVER GO TO BED ANGRY!

There's a fanfic whose Equestria has fiction books with a watered down WW2 made to look like children stories of bravery and all that stuff. Well, we all know how the war actually ran, but they didn't.
The logic might be applied here, as in, the MLP FiM we know is a watered down storytelling of events that actually ran with more horror and real life than it seemed to be.
So, perchance, EqG might be an actual smash and grab, but what Faust imagined was the PG version.
Well Shit... Rough patch for the lovers

Short answer: because what you sleep on builds upon itself and enhances the idea.

Plus they are even worse at thinking about things than the ponies. They never think about their actions or how they might affect others. When sunset yelled at twilight it was because she had placed everyone in danger and instead supporting her as a friend her friends just went along with the whole she crying so now we feel bad because she was being stupid and we told her off. Sometimes people need tough love and that means being not nice. And twilight was extra stupid because despite almost getting a bunch of people killed by killer plants she still didn't stop. And I know it can be hard to stand up for yourself but if she wants to be a scientist she needs to know how to be safe. Scientists have rules that they have to follow in order for everyone to be safe. She could have talked with her parents about what was happening with head of her school but she chose not to. Cinch would have never let her go as long as she could make her look good.
6907739
That is if they lose the pride that keeps them apart.
Thst escalated quickly... Skitter will not like Blank Page taste for a while.
What a fascinating alternate take on EG. Too bad there was a glaring lack of Spike. Oh, well. At least Page got to eat MEEEAAAT. 🍔🥓
