"CLONE TROOPER!?!?" Kane's dad yelled "From Star Wars!?!?!?"

"And clones of our sons?" Doug's dad asked "What's going on!?!?"

"We'll find out later." Discord said. He concentrated his magic and, in a flash, everyone in town with some equipment disappeared to find themselves in a large cavern area. A large chimney area was near them, and torches were all over the area, showing that many caves were around, most likely to house a family in for all of them, maybe more. Discord fell to the floor, knocked out easily.

"Discord!!!" Fluttershy yelled in fear. She ran to him and lifted his head

"Welcome to my house," he said "hope you like it."

Where is this at?"

"Inside the same cave with the dragon you made go away: I just simply made room in it to suit to my style. I'm afraid I'm too weak to help you all out, forgive me on this."

"What are we going to do then?"

"I'll tell you what we're going to do." A voice said. They all turned and saw Commander Roland (The leader of the survivors outside the Crystal Empire’s shield & needed out help, in case you forgot). "We are going to help this bug guy out, and we're going to survive until he and his friends are awake!!!"

"Who made you leader?" Kane's dad asked

"Your son & his saved hundreds of lives, including my own, and helped both our species & theirs work as one again. Alright everyone, we have to push the big guy over to the biggest room there is!"

"Where's the biggest room around here?" Fluttershy asked

"You're all in it." He replied.

"Oh," Roland said "Well, all doctors, take away the big guy's friends away next door."

"Yes sir." One of the doctors replied. Many doctors dragged the rest away, into a room with a single torch.

"Everyone else, we should get the big guy off his side & on his front: we have to get to both bite marks!" They all pushed Kane up to when he looked sitting upright, which took them a few hours, due to his new heavy weight. At that moment, when they all finished, the rest of the Heroes & Mane 6 woke up.

"TWILIGHT!!!" Fluttershy yelled with excitement, running over to them.

"Oh great," Rarity whined a bit "what are we covered in?"

"It's so sticky!" Pinkie commented, trying to shake off the stomach acid

"Weren't we swallowed whole?" Gustavo asked

"We were!" dash realized "By Kane's evil Clone, that was the giant snake-pony monster!!!"

"How'd we get out?" A.J. asked "I hope it wasn't through the sewers."

"We weren't," Matt replied "I believe we were puked out."

"Really?" Russell asked "How?"

"By Kane of course!!! Good Kane that is... WAIT!!! WHERE IS HE!?!?" A doctor came over & checked on them.

"Oh," she said "you're awake, that's good, I was going to check each of your pulse to see if you're alive."

"Where's Kane!?!?"

"He's in the other room. We're going to-" Matt ran out, not as coordinated as he was, but made it to Kane, jumping & landing near his giant muzzle.

"You big clown! I should've guessed you helped us got out your evil clone's stomach. How'd you do it?" No answer came "Kane? Answer me!!! DOC!!! WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIM!?!?!?"

"He was in a really bad fight trying to save us all," one of the doctors answered "the monster bit into his front & back leg, poisoning him with it's venom. He's in a coma like state right now, but he's alive. We're have a life support system right now, as we're trying to suck all the venom out."

"How long will that take?" Twilight asked, appearing with the rest.

"Most likely a few days." another doctor answered "A month if it goes there. He'll most likely make out, luckily, he just won't be able to help out for a while."

"Which is why we need to protect him." Roland said "Starting tomorrow morning, we're going to be in shifts to help protect him & protect each other! I will need the following groups: people who know how to work on farms; people who know all sorts of medicines to help out Kane and any injured allies; people who are fast on their feet to act as scouts; Engineers and/or people that can operate machinery; and people that can work in their own shifts to act as security in day & night. All must be a teenager and older to join. Mothers with young children are an exception. Find yourselves a cave to make your temporary house and go to sleep, you're gonna need it." Everyone but the group & some of the Mane 6's family members & friends were there.

"Come on Discord," Fluttershy said with her mouth carrying Discord's tail "we better find ourselves a place to sleep." Discord didn't replied, but remained limpness while being dragged on the floor like a carpet.

"Come on Applebloom," A.J. said "Big Mac, and Granny Smith. We'll be farming tomorrow in the morning."

"Eeyup." Big Mac replied, carrying Applebloom's tail in his mouth

"But I wanna sleep with the giant!" Applebloom yelled "He protected Ponyville!!!"

"He may not see you though." Matt said

"I gotta go as well," Pinkie said "That poundcake & pumpkin cake can get in real trouble!" She hopped away!

"Come on Rainbow!" Scootaloo said with excitement "you're going to love my parents!!!"

"I don't know," Dash said "I am tired though."

"I promise they don't snore."

"...alright." She picked up Scootaloo and flew into one of the caves.

"What happened to you?" Sweetie Belle asked, touching the acid on Rarity

"You might not want to touch that." Rarity replied, gently backing away from her sister

"why?"

"It's a long story." They both walked away

"So he protected Ponyville from that monster?" Spike asked, touching Kane's muzzle

"He did," Twilight replied "and he saved all our lives!"

"That... is... AWESOME!!!" He hopped onto her back "So what happened? How'd he end up like that?"

"You'll learn when we're in our cave."

"But I wanna know now!"

"You will, be patient." they both walked away to a nearby cave

"So what about us?" Russell asked "Where are we sleeping?"

"I'm going to my area." Kane's dad said, walking away.

"Same thing here." Doug's dad said, walking the other direction.

"I guess we could sleep with him." Gustavo said.

"GAY!!!" Doug yelled "I'm sleeping on my own."

"Hey!" Matt yelled "He saved us all and we are a group!!!"

"You can sleep anywhere with him," a doctor said sucking out some venom "just make sure that you're not near his bite area. Sleep in his mouth for all I care."

"Yeah," Russell said awkwardly "we're gonna avoid that."

"His wings then?" Gustavo suggested

"Not a bad idea." Matt replied "To his wings!!!" They all jumped inside his right wing and began to sleep in there.

"This is actually relaxing." Doug said "It's like pillows!!!"

"No kidding." Russell said. They all slept in the giant's wings, preparing for tomorrow's and the following day's tasks ahead.

Everyone woke up from their sleep to begin their first day. Matt joined the engineers to help make sure equipment ran well and design something that can hold food in with a Troff to feed Kane with; Russell and A.J.'s family went with the farmers to help grow more food for everyone, feed the ponies around, &, of course, feed Kane when he wakes up (admit it, you wouldn't want to be eaten again without being saved, would you?); Doug, Twilight, and Rarity joined Security to make sure what enters & what leaves, with the chance to warn of incoming danger; Gustavo and Fluttershy joined the doctors to help suck out the venom & other things needed to help out their giant friend; Dash and Pinkie joined the scouts to bring in more food and news of what's happening.

Nothing particullary happened throughout the time. News was that the Galactic Empire & Cobra made Ponyville their base of operations. Celestia & Luna must've saw this, with Cadence & Shining Armor, and made a shield over Canterlot to protect their subjects & themselves. With this, the Giants attacked the shield, while the rest look for scroungers to take away, which resulted in some of their scouts to be missing. It's a shame that some went missing, and it's even more unfortunate that the giants destroyed the Shield, causing more terror than they already should. All of the royalties fought them, but proved next to nothing. Kane was getting better through this, as a staggering report of nearly 80% of the venom is sucked out, nearly filling up 2 bathtubs with it! He may get better with a few days at least

A cantata, lead by Octavia, performed to help pass the time, as most forms of entertainment around was sleeping, reading whatever books they could find, drawing on the walls, and watching the doctors around Kane were the only things to do. They were performing to everyone in front of everyone, soothing the worries of the doctors and everyone else, when, a large gust of wind came, blowing everyone down and stopping the performance. They felt some more winds blowing, though not as strong as the first, and realized Kane was breathing through his nose once again!!! This was some rather great news, causing the doctors to stop the venom sucking and put on bandages over the wounds. Some other news followed, that another that a group of survivors, just like them, are held up in Disneyland. Some of the other's members came over to see if our group really had the heroes with them, which was great, including the size of Kane before the clones attacked. There was a proposal that, when the giant awoke, they could join together to stop &/or survive together, and, quite possibly, stop these clones from going any further.

It happened. He awoke. It was a regular day like the others, and the food storage was over stock: Enough was there to make a feast!!! Gustavo, Matt, & Fluttershy were all hanging around Kane, playing poker, when they felt something move. Gustavo, lying on Kane's hoof, felt his seat move, causing him to get up & see that the giant was getting up for the first time in a week!!!

"He's waking up!!!" They all yelled "Kane's waking up!!!" Everyone heard them and Kane's grunts, dropping their stuff & activities to see him wake up!!! Sure enough, his front hooves placed firmly on the ground, then scooched forward a bit as his flank & tail rose in the air, while his wings flexed a bit. His actions told everyone he was stretching, and, after a few cracks made form his wings, released a huge yawn, stood up, and smack his lips a bit. He looked down and was surprised to see a whole population of humans & ponies staring at him from all angles.

"Uh... hi?" Kane asked a bit sheepishly. The crowd cheered!!! Kane sat down with a a questionable look on his face, not knowing what's going on.

"Alright everyone!" Roland yelled from behind Kane, climbing his back "Go back to your areas, I'm having a word with him."

"Roland? What's going on? Where am I? Why are you here?"

"Relax, I'll fill you in." Roland said, standing on the giant's shoulder near his ear. "You've been knocked out for a week. Your fiends are here, with the exception of Pinkie & Dash. They'll come, but for now, eat up, then we can talk."

"Eat? I don't need to eat, why, I'm barely hung-" his stomach growled. "I guess I am. Where can I eat?"

"They're brining it in. The farmers have been preparing it."

"Thanks." He got up on all 4s and began to walk around, keeping a careful eyes to not step on anyone below him. The farmers came in, bringing in a huge Troff filled with various fruits & vegetables mixed together with hay. He couldn't control himself and began to eat, satisfying his hunger, even if it's filled with things he didn't like as a human.

"So?" Doug asked, standing on one side of the troff "How've you been?"

"Fine," Kane said with his mouth full of food. "It's been nearly a week, I had venom running through me, the docs saved my life, I woke up, and I'm eating."

"You know we saved your life." Gustavo said, being carried by Fluttershy.

"You did? Why thank you two!!!"

"And I helped made the Troff." Matt said

"How thoughtful of you."

"We want to thank you for saving our lives." Russell said

"Even if it was rough." A.J. added

"That was the only way," Kane said, getting another mouthful of greens "He wouldn't let you out, so I had to improvise. I'm glad you all made it out."

"Same thing here." Twilight said

"Now we can take back Canterlot with the others at Disneyland!!!" Rarity yelled

"Disneyland?" Kane asked "Canterlot?"

"He doesn't know what's happening." Fluttershy told Rarity. She turned back to the giant & landed on his muzzle "While you were asleep, some meanies took over Ponyville!!!"

"Really?" Kane asked, still chewing but focused on the yellow pegasus "How'd we get over here then?"

"Discord saved us."

"He did? Everyone here included?"

"Everyone here included."

"Wow... why doesn't he help?"

"He says he's too weak to help."

"Makes sense. Continue."

"Well, those means went to Canterlot & have taken over, most likely holding the princesses hostage."

"Oh no!"

"Yes, but Dash & Pinkie found a group at, what you humans called, Disneyland! They saw all of us, but your size helped us form an alliance with them!"

"My size, eh? I always knew being a giant had it's advantages."

"Yes, we can head over there right now, or we can make plans to take back out city... if that's alright with you."

"Girl... that is more than alright... it's a priority!!!"
