The Jungle Book 2 Page #4

---

How could it be

Half as good as being free?

Part of me

Like the jungle rhythm

Like the jungle rhythm

- Did you hear that?

- Hear what?

It sounded like Mowgli.

- Mowgli!

- Ranjan, wait!

Mowgli!

Shanti? Whoa!

Are you OK?

Oh, I feel "vine".

What are you doing up there?

Hold on. I'll be right...

- I can't believe I found you.

- I thought I'd never see you again.

You out here, kid?

Hey, Little Britches!

Mowgli?

You're not really helping.

- Ranjan, stop pulling.

- It's her.

That wild bear that carried you off.

What wild...

Baloo, don't! No!

Roar.

My poor sneezer. That hurt.

You come anywhere near Ranjan

and I'll really show you hurt.

- Wait!

- Don't make me do it.

Wait. Calm down. It's OK.

But he's attacking us.

Attacking? I'm the one

socked in the schnozzle.

That's because you scared her.

But, you told me to scarify her.

- What?

- No.

Wait a minute.

Mowgli, you planned this?

Well, I...

- Come on, Ranjan.

- Shanti, I can explain!

Don't even bother.

Shanti, wait!

Man, you weren't kidding about her.

She's bad news.

No, she's not. She was helping

and you scared her.

Man alive!

First, you tell me to scare her,

then, you tell me not to.

Kid, I only got so much room in this

noggin, and it's filling up fast.

You just don't understand.

Alright,

how's about laying it out for me?

Read you loud and clear, kid.

You wanted that girl to find you.

Oh!

Shanti! Shanti!

Where are you?

Come on!

There you are.

I'm so sorry.

Will you let me explain?

Come on, at least talk to me.

You seem surprised to see me,

man cub.

I can't imagine why.

I wasn't going to let you get away

with what you did to me.

You see, you humiliated me, man cub.

Surely you do realise

I simply can't let you live.

Run.

Oh, you're going to try

and outrun me.

How droll.

Come on. This way!

Alright. Stay here.

Mowgli, no!

Wait here.

I have to help Mowgli.

But I want to help Mowgli, too!

No, I'll be right back, I promise.

Don't move.

Whoa. Hold still. Calm down, kid.

Where's Mowgli?

Shere Khan.

Shere Khan?

Hold on!

Whoa!

Whoa!

No matter how fast you run,

no matter where you hide,

I will catch you.

Come out, come out,

wherever you are.

Hurry! Hurry!

Faster! Faster!

Not another man cub.

Can't you go any faster?

Baloo!

What is the meaning of this?

- Mowgli's in trouble!

- Shanti, too!

Who's Shanti?

Take the kid! I'll help Mowgli.

Baloo!

Be careful.

Hmm? Mowgli?

Mowgli, is that you?

Mowgli?

Uh!

- You! Stay away from me!

- You! Why are you here?

- One of my den has a problem.

- I spent a night in the jungle.

I was attacked by a snake.

But I don't care.

- I'm here to help Mowgli!

- I'm here to help Mowgli!

- You what?

- You are?

I guess we're on the same side.

I guess so.

- OK.

- OK.

You go that way. I'll cover you.

Oh, no.

Well, isn't this a delightful turn

of events?

So, what's it going to be, man cub?

You or your adorable

little girlfriend?

I'm waiting.

One.

- Two.

- No, don't!

Thr...

No more games, man cub.

- Mowgli!

- Come on!

Mowgli, look out!

- Oh, no!

- We can do it. Jump!

Come on!

Mowgli.

Hello, Stripes. You're looking a bit

down in the mouth today.

Oh, no.

What's the matter?

Cat got your tongue?

I always said you had a good head

on your shoulders Khanny, me boy.

This is fantastic, playing to a

captive audience. I just love it.

- Bagheera.

- Mowgli.

It's awfully good to see you,

man cub.

Come on, follow me!

Bagheera, this is Shanti,

my best friend from the village.

Ranjan!

Shanti!

There they are!

- Papa! Who-hoo!

- Come on, Mowgli!

Mowgli!

Mowgli, I have to go.

Shanti.

Well? Come on, Mowgli.

Er...

Come on, Ranjan.

Oh, Baloo.

It's OK, kid.

That girl isn't so bad after all,

is she?

Go on, Mowgli.

Really?

Really. Don't let her get away.

Come with me.

Now you know I can't do that.

I'm gonna miss you, Papa Bear.

Me, too, Little Britches. Me, too.

Alright. There, come on, now.

You'd better hurry up.

Hey, wait!

Mowgli!

What took you so long?

- Race you back!

- Come on, Ranjan.

Wait! Wait!

- Shanti!

- We've found the children.

- Ranjan!

- Mummy!

You gave us quite a scare.

Shanti, I was so worried about you.

I'm OK. I'm so sorry.

I was just trying to help Mowgli.

I'm sorry, sir. It's just that...

No, Mowgli. I'm sorry.

I should have understood that

the jungle is a part of who you are.

I'm just glad you're safe.

- Ranjan.

- You won't believe it.

There was a big old snake

and I beat him up.

Of course you did.

I'm proud of you, Baloo.

That was very brave...

Now, Baggy.

Don't get any ideas

about running after him

and trying to talk him

into staying with us.

He belongs in that village,

and you know it.

Oh, really?

Yes, really.

He's got his whole future there.

I'm sorry, Baloo.

You're absolutely right.

I'm really gonna miss that kid.

Me, too.

Wait a minute.

I'm having myself an idea.

Baloo?

Come on, Mowgli. We'll be late.

OK. I'm right behind you.

Just getting some water.

- Alright. Be careful, son.

- I will. See you, Pop.

Let's see if he remembers to actually

bring back some water this time.

Hey, Shanti, let's remember to

actually bring back water this time.

Yeah, man!

Man, that beat is chillin' me.

- Hi, Papa Bear.

- Hey there, Little Britches.

Shanti!

Ranjan?

Ow!

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries

and your strife

Yeah, man.

I mean, the bare necessities

That's why us bears

can rest at ease

With just the bare necessities

of life

Oh, yeah.

With just

the bare necessities of life

One more time!

With just the bare necessities

of life

Yeah, man!

Can you hear it?

Yeah, man.

Now, I'm the king of the swingers

The jungle VIP

I reached the top and had to stop

And that's what's bothering me

I want to be a man, man cub

And stroll right into town

And be just like the other men

I'm tired of monkeying around

Oh, oobee doo

I wanna be like you

I wanna walk like you

Talk like you, too

You'll see it's true

An ape like me

Can learn to be human, too

Whoo, baby!

Yeah, take it away!

Crazy man, crazy.

Let's go.

Here we go.

Come on.

Bop te roonee!

- Check this out.

- This place is happening!

Can you hear it?

Oh yeah.

Step, step, step, step aside.

And I'll show you

what a real rug cutter can do.

Anything for my Little Britches.

Hit it, Papa Bear.

Yeah, you

I wanna be like you

I wanna walk like you

Talk like you, too

You'll see it's true

Someone like me

Can learn to be someone like me

Can learn to be someone like you

Can learn to be someone like me

Yeah, man.

Hey, not bad.

Sometimes when night has come

The river sings a song

In my dreams it seems to leave me

Right where I belong

Wandering everywhere

Each way I turn is wrong

How I'm wishing I could be there

Right where I belong

Smiles that have warmed me

Arms that have held me

Are all a part of who I am.

It's never easy

leaving your friends behind
