The Wrong Panther Jungle Book

.

# In the darkness of the forest Shere Khan's on the prowl

# Mowgli stops to listen as he hears the mighty growl

# In the Jungle Book It's in the Jungle Book

# Jungle Book It's in the Jungle Book

# Bagheera and Baloo are at the man cub's side

# In the Jungle Book It's in the Jungle Book

# The Jungle Book It's in the Jungle Book. #

Something's amiss in the jungle today.

Those birds, they're terrified.

And that smell - reminds me of that ruthless black panther.

Kala is back! If you're right, Mowgli's in grave danger.

The crocodile swished and thrashed.

Bagheera held on...

dodged its snapping jaws,

fought for hours and defeated the biggest crocodile

ever to swim in the Wainganga River.

Wow! Bagheera's an amazing hunter.

Huh! An amazing tale teller, you mean.

Who's ever heard of a panther defeating a crocodile?

Bagheera's not an ordinary panther.

He's the bravest and the strongest and the... And the...

Huh! And you believe his stories? You're so naive.

How dare you?! I'm going to fetch him.

Bala, make sure he stays put until I come back with Bagheera.

He'll give you the lesson you deserve.

No need to hurry, I'll wait.

I'm not scared of your big, black panther friend.

Grrr!

We must make sure. Is it really Kala?

Bagheera! Bagheera! Ouf..

Bagheera, you must come to the river. Tabaqui...

There's no time to lose, I must go.

What's wrong with him? What did he mean? What's going on?

Oh...Bagheera's fine! Nothing going on.

What's that about Tabaqui by the river?

You two are up to something,

if you won't tell me what it is, I'm going to find out for myself.

Oh, no, you don't.

-Let me go!

-We'll go and see what Tabaqui's up to.

Put me down!

Let me go!

Psst, Baloo.

Ow! Oooh! Ow!

What's wrong?

Oh, and you're asking me?! You hit a soft spot.

-I didn't mean to.

-Oh, but you did.

I need some moringa leaves to sooth the pain.

There are some in those bushes over there.

-Hurry!

-All right!

-Well?

-It's Kala, all right. I saw his tracks near the wolves' lair.

There's no mistaking the gash in his paw pad.

-The lawless, man-eating black panther is back.

-For Mowgli.

And he's back with a vengeance.

Do you remember when he almost got Mowgli 10, no, 11 years ago?

-He swore he'd come back some day.

-Now that day has come.

Not a word to Mowgli. It'd only worry him unduly.

Don't let him out of your sight till I've tracked Kala

and driven him out of the jungle.

Mowgli! Ow! Have you found my leaves?

Mowgli? Mowgli, where are you?

Oh, no!

Raarrgh!

Mowgli, what happened? Where's Bagheera?

Ha! Yes, what's keeping the great biter? Perhaps he's scared, ha-ha-ha!

He'll deal with you in his own good time.

Bagheera has no idea how smart jackals are.

When he tries to give me a lesson, I'll dart this way! That way!

Slip round him and then...ooph! Ow!

Ha-ha-ha! Oh, very smart(!)

Meanwhile, this'll keep that nasty mouth of yours shut.

Well done, Mowgli!

Come on, we have something important to take care of.

Oh, we have?

Bagheera! Mowgli's disappeared and Kala's...

Kala was here a few minutes ago. These tracks are fresh.

Oh, we must find Mowgli before Kala does!

We'll go to the wolves' lair.

That's where Bagheera saw Kala's paw prints.

Then, we'll search the jungle until we find him and catch him.

Yes! But how?

That's how! Easy peasy, isn't it?

Rargh!

Mawrrr...

Grrr.

Huh! Ah!

Rarrgh!

Mwwaahh!

-Hold on, Bala.

-(BALOO) Mowgli!

-Raargh!

-Grragh!

-Quick, Baloo, take this.

-Careful, Mowgli.

-Ahh.

-Oh!

-Rargh!

-Raargh!

-Rargh!

-Grr!

Rargh!

Huh?

Bagheera?

-Who else?

-Oh! You got him!

-Rargh!

-Go back to your mountain home

and never dare set a paw in the jungle again.

If you do, you know what to expect.

Rargh!

-Hurrah!

-Congratulations, Bagheera.

You're a magnificent fighter.

That's exactly what I told Tabaqui.

By the way, Bagheera, talking of Tabaqui...

Uh!

Grr...

Ah, Bagheera, here you are, at last.

I heard about that crocodile, are you sure it wasn't a lizard?

Rargh!

Huh?

-Rargh!

-I was joking! Ah!

Oh! Oh!

Ah! Ba-Ba-Bagheera, I was joking! Can't you take a joke?

There goes the smart jackal!

-Ha-ha!

-Ha-ha-ha!

Ha-ha, serves him right.

-Baloo.

-Huh?

-For your soft spot.

Ha-ha-ha!

You saw through my little trick.

There was no need for tricks, you could've told me about Kala.

-Yes, we had a secret weapon.

-I would've helped you.

-It didn't go quite as planned, did it?

-Well...

that's because he took me by surprise.

But if he ever comes back, I'll be ready and I'll...

Ah! Ooh!

-Ha-ha-ha.

-Ha-ha-ha.

ALL LAUGH
