Meanwhile in Canterlot Castle, Princess Celestia had scientists working on a way to send the human back home, Celestia herself was quite interested in how Lyle even got here, from what Twilight gathered from Lyle, it had been a Magical storm that had sent him here.
To Celestia, it seemed too much of a random chance to her at first, she had feared the Human had bad intentions but when she saw him for herself, he was quite rude and grumpy but a good heart none-the-less.
Celestia was sitting on her throne at this time, an act that Celestia became very accustomed to it over a VERY long career as a Princess.
Suddenly, a pony guard galloped right in through the doors and rushed to Celestia and bowed down to the princess he served.
“Rise my little pony, speak” Celestia ordered in a calm voice
“News from the scientists you ordered to find a way back to “Earth”, er...your highness” the pony spoke at once
“What news?” asked Celestia
“They have found a way back, but the bad news is that the way will close in 1 hour” the same pony reported.
“Bring me the scientists this instant! There is no time to lose!” Celestia ordered the pony guard and in an instant he ran out.
…
Around 50 minutes later...
Lyle and “Friends” had finally gotten out of the Everfree Forest, Rainbow Dash was nowhere near the angry Lyle as they made their way back to the library under the cover of the night.
“Alright, here’s the deal, this incident never happened! It shall never be spoken of again and any attempts will be met with lack of existence if you get my drift, got that?” Lyle said sternly to the others.
“Yes Lyle” the others said.
“Goodie, now then, I’d like to get some sleep now.” Lyle said, making for the treehouse.
Suddenly a very bright light flashed in front of Lyle revealing Princess Celestia and another dark blue Alicorn who seemed to resemble the night, Lyle assumed this was Celestia’s sister that Twilight mentioned before, Lyle believed her name is Luna or something like that.
“Sup Princess?” Lyle greeted in a non-caring fashion
“You ought to show the Princess a little more respect” Twilight reprimanded
“Twilight, Care factor at zero” Lyle muttered to her.
“If I may have your attention” Celestia cleared her throat as she continued, “We have some good news and some bad news”
“This ought to be good” Lyle muttered again earning a look from Twilight
“Good news is that we can send Lyle home-“ Luna starts
“YES!!!!” Lyle yelled in victory!
“…the bad news is that the portal can only remain possible for 5 minutes and will not be able to open for another 300 moons” Luna continued as though there were no interruption
(For those wondering how long that would take really, Looking around it's 2.5 years aprox for 30 moons to pass, a moon is about 27.3 days for those who want to be exact, which people have added to about 819 days or around 2.3- 2.5 years around, times that by ten and you got 8190 days for 300 moons and that be equal to around 22 years. give or take a few months each way, if you really wanna know, try doing the math yourself and comment your answer! TL:DR That's a long FREAKING time to wait for the next portal opening)
“Well, whaddya waiting for? Beam me up Scotty!” Lyle said, earning a few weird looks, “What? It’s a classic line from back home! Ah forget it! Just make the stupid portal thingy”
“Do you not want to say good-bye?” Luna asked
“Quite frankly no, I don’t really want to be attached at all, as far as I’m concerned, this never happened! And I can make a good cover-up story for my disappearance” Lyle said impatiently
“If you insist, but you may regret it” Celestia said, slightly shocked at Lyle.
“Oh alright, one quick good-bye and that’s it while you’re doing the portal thingy” Lyle gave in.
Celestia and Luna put their horns together and charged their horns with magical power to make their portal, which should take a minute…
“So yeah, good-bye and all, not a huge pleasure being here but it could be worse” Lyle said awkwardly
Pinkie was crying a little bit and lamented, “I never got to give you a Welcome party or a good-bye party!”
“If it makes you fell better, I’ll probably raid the fridge of meat when I get back” Lyle said sarcastically.
“Ewwww” Fluttershy muttered
“Anyway goodbyes” Lyle started before turning to each pony, ”Twilight, thanks for chaining me up you jerk, and next time an species comes along, don’t chain it up or it’ll want to kill you. Pinkie, are you sure you don’t have a drug stash? Fluttershy, er…well we never really talked but well yeah…have fun with those animals. Ego Dash, stop having such an inflated ego, I’m sure people from my world would bring you down faster than you claim to be” Lyle took a quick breath before continuing, “Applejack, honest question for you, why is it for ponies that bucking is pretty much a swear word for ponies when it’s also hitting a tree with your hind legs? And lastly Rarity, thanks for the clothes and all and it’s pronounced Egregious by the way!”
Lyle had finished his one-minute good-bye when Celestia and Luna finished making the portal.
“This is it” Celestia said as the portal appeared in front
“Best go in quick, you only have 30 seconds” said Luna
“Well see ya around or not, I will forget you! So long losers who I’ve always hated!” Lyle said as he started running to the portal.
With speed that would put Usain Bolt to shame, Lyle ran straight in and dived into the portal with a blinding flash.
…
YOU DIDN’T THINK IT’D BE THAT EASY DID YOU?!
…
Lyle had hit a rock very hard in the face dazing him for a while, surprisingly he did not get a concussion at all but at least he was back in his world, quite personally, Lyle could not take another minute of those ponies anyway.
“Lyle!” Twilight’s voice rang out from behind.
“Wow, I must be imagining Twilight’s annoying voice already” Lyle said out loud to himself.
“Lyle!” Twilight's voice took offense
“you’re back here in Equestria” Celestia’s voice joined in.
Lyle started to notice the world still looked cartoony, a bad sign as he turned around and saw the ponies he could of sworn he left behind.
“No….” Lyle said in absolute horror, “No…No, No! NONONONONONONONONONONO! No fucking way! You’re all not real! Must be the portal playing tricks or something” Lyle started freaking out more.
Rainbow Dash went up to Lyle and slapped him with her hoof, “Stop being an idiot Lyle, you’re still here!”
Realization hit Lyle, it was fact that Lyle had not moved a single inch closer to Earth, “Girls, I need to be alone for a while…”
“Uh oh…” Twilight muttered seeing red build up in Lyle’s face
“He’s gonna blow!” Pinkie yelled diving behind a bunker like cover as everypony else did the same.
