Editing Ash's Adventures of The Jungle Book/Transcript (section)

==Ash and Friends Meet Mowgli and Bagheera/Ash, Mowgli, Bagheera, and Friends Encounter Kaa==
[''The scene dissolves to Ash and his friends lost in the middle of the jungle at night'']
*'''Narrator:'''
[''As the narrator speaks, Ash spots a doe through his binoculars'']
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' There's nothing but deer around here.
*'''Misty: '''Well, that's the least of our worries, isn't it?
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Just because we're a little lost doesn't mean I have to stop catching all the wild Pokemon I can, does it?
*'''Pikachu:''' Chu.
*'''Misty:''' Of course not. Enjoy yourself.
*'''Narrator:''' Our friends have gotten off track, just a bit.
*'''Misty:''' I just can't go one step further. We've been looking for Indore for ten whole days!
*'''Brock:''' Uh, there's a bug right on your...
[''Before Brock can finish his sentence, Misty screams in panic'']
*'''Misty:''' [''screams''] Get it away! [''jumps onto Ash's back'']
*'''Brock:''' It was just a piece of grass.
[''Brock laughs when Misty kicks him square in the face'']
*'''Misty:''' I'm going crazy! Where are we?!?
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' According to this, we're right in the middle of nowhere. But it looks like Route 24 leads to Indore.
*'''Misty:''' Does this trail take us to Route 24?
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' According to my calculations, it does.
*'''Misty:''' All right! Then let's get this show on the road!
[''Misty soon spots Mowgli riding on Bagheera's back'']
*'''Misty: '''Huh? [''quietly''] Hey guys, look over there!
[''Everyone looks to see Mowgli and Bagheera'']
*'''Brock: '''What's that boy doing riding on a panther like that.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' I don't know but let's go check it out.
*'''Pikachu:''' Pika.
*'''Misty: '''Right behind you, Ash.
*'''Brock:''' Hey wait up.
[''They set off after Mowgli and Bagheera as they walk on through the jungle'']
* '''Mowgli:''' Bagheera, I'm getting a little sleepy. Shouldn't we start back home?
* '''Bagheera:''' Mowgli, this time, we're not going back. I'm taking you to a man-village.
* '''Mowgli:''' But, why?
* '''Bagheera''': Because, Shere Khan has returned to this part of the jungle, and he has sworn to kill you.
* '''Mowgli:''' Kill me? But why would he wanna do that?
* '''Bagheera:''' He hates men. And Shere Khan is not going to allow you to grow up to become a man - just another hunter with a gun.
* '''Mowgli:''' Uhh, we'll just explain him that I'd never do a thing like that.
* '''Bagheera:''''' ''Nonsense! No one explains anything to Shere Khan!
* '''Mowgli:''' Well, maybe so. But I'm not afraid. And besides I''...''
* '''Bagheera:''' Now, that's enough. We'll spend a night here. Things will look better in the morning. [''notices he's not paying attention''] Man-cub? Man-cub! Now come on, up this tree. It's safer up there.
* '''Mowgli:''' Uh, I don't want to go back to the man-village.
* '''Bagheera:''' Go on. Up you go.
* '''Mowgli:''' That limb way up there?
* '''Bagheera:''' That's right.
[''Suddenly Pikachu jumps out of the bushes between Mowgli and Bagheera with his cheeks all powered up and glaring at the confused panther in a threatening stance as Ash, Misty, and Brock come running out of the bushes'']
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' [''To Mowgli''] Hey, you! What are you doing? Get out of there! Run away! That panther is dangerous!
*'''Mowgli: '''What who are you g...
[''Ash grabs Mowgli's arm and tries to get him to a safe distance away from Bagheera'']
*'''Misty: '''Make a run for it!
*'''Mowgli: '''Hold on a minute! That panther is my friend!
[''Ash, Misty and Brock stop in surprise'']
*'''Brock:''' Wait he is?
*'''Bagheera: '''That's right. I'm not trying to hurt him. I've been watching over him for years.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' [''feeling embarrassed''] Oh boy I'm sorry we just thought that...
[''Ash, Misty, and Brock just realized that the panther just talked'']
*'''Ash, Misty, and Brock:''' [''shocked''] DID THAT PANTHER JUST TALKED?
*'''Mowgli:''' Well of course he can talk.
*'''Pikachu: '''Pika?
*'''Bagheera:''' And may you please call off this yellow electric mouse of yours?
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Say Pikachu it's all right you can let him go now.
*'''Pikachu:''' Pika. [''He runs to Ash'']
*'''Bagheera: '''Thank you for that.
*'''Mowgli:''' Anyway who are you guys and what are those things [''pointing to Pikachu and Togepi'']
*'''Brock: '''My name's Brock and I'm a Pokemon breeder.
*'''Misty: '''And I'm Misty. My specialty is water Pokemon.
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''My name's Ash Ketchum and I'm trying to become a Pokemon Master.
*'''Pikachu: '''Pika.
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Oh, yeah and this is Pikachu.
*'''Pikachu: '''Pika-Pikachu.
*'''Misty:''' And this is Togepi.
*'''Togepi:''' Togepi.
*'''Mowgli:''' What's a Pokemon?
*'''Brock:''' A Pokemon, which is short for Pocket Monsters are creatures with different powers and abilities. There are hundreds of different Pokemon that evolve and inhabit the world.
*'''Mowgli: '''I see. Oh by the way I'm Mowgli and this here is my friend Bagheera.
*'''Bagheera:''' Charmed, and what are you kids doing here in the jungle especially at this time of night?
*'''Misty:''' Well we are on vacation and were on our way to Indore [''glaring at Ash''] but a certain someone thought we could get there quicker by going through the jungle and we've been lost for ten days.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Hey, I was trying to help us get there by a shortcut, OK? Give me a break. 
*'''Brock:''' Alright alright calm down you guys. I'm sure
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Thank you Brock.
*'''Bagheera:''' Well you won't be able to reach Indore tonight especially since dangerous animals come out hunting in the night so I suggest you kids should stick with me and Mowgli.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' No thanks we can handle ourselves.
[''Suddenly a roar is heard in the distance which scares Ash and friends'']
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Well then again dangerous animals do come hunting out in night.
*'''Misty:''' Yeah maybe we should stick with Mowgli and Bagheera and wait until morning.
*'''Brock:''' Good idea. [''To Bagheera''] Oh by the way what are you two doing at this time of night anyway?
*'''Bagheera:''' Well, Brock, I'm taking Mowgli to a man-village so he'll be safe from a tiger.
*'''Misty:''' What tiger?
*'''Bagheera:''' Shere Khan that's who.
*'''Everyone:''' SHERE KHAN?
*'''Pikachu:''' Pika.
*'''Togepi: '''Togei.
*'''Bagheera:''' You know Shere Khan?
*'''Brock:''' Afraid so, Bagheera. We've encountered him many times on our adventures with Pooh.
*'''Bagheera:''' I see. He has returned to this part of the jungle and has sworn to kill Mowgli.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Kill him? But why would he do that?
*'''Pikachu:''' Pika?
*'''Bagheera:''' He hates men. And Shere Khan is not going to allow any man-cub to grow up to become a man - just another hunter with a gun.
*'''Misty:''' I see.
*'''Bagheera: '''Yes, so I'm bringing Mowgli back to the Man Village for his own protection but for now, we're going to to spend the night up this tree for some sleep.
*'''Brock: '''You mean on that limb up there?
*'''Bagheera:''' That's right.
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Say, can we come along to help you bring Mowgli back to the man-village, Bagheera?
*'''Bagheera:''' Very well then. Now Mowgli you go first.
[''Mowgli tries to climb the tree but can't'']
*'''Misty:''' [''laughing''] Is that all the better you can climb?
*'''Mowgli:''' It's too big around! And besides, I don't have any claws.
[''Bagheera helps and pushes Mowgli up the trunk]''
*'''Mowgli: '''Aah! Whoa! [''Mowgli slips and almost falls but he grabs onto Bagheera's back'']
*'''Bagheera: '''[''Roaring in pain'']
[''Mowgli then climbs back up but he he steps on Bagheera's face as he climbs then Bagheera pushes Mowgli onto the limb then he leaps onto it as well'']
*'''Bagheera:''' Now, get some sleep. We've got a long journey ahead of us tomorrow.
*'''Brock: '''Yeah. We need plenty of rest to travel to the man village.
*'''Mowgli:''' [''whining''] Uh, I wanna stay in the jungle.
*'''Bagheera:''' [''chuckles''] Huh? Heh, you wouldn't last one day. [''he yawns and lies down to sleep'']
*'''Mowgli:''' I am not afraid. I can look after myself.
[''Then all the sudden Kaa the python then appears from the leaves of the limbs above, he smacks his lips when noticing Mowgli, Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Togepi, and Brock, looks towards Bagheera to see him sleeping. He then approaches Mowgli'']
*'''Kaa: '''S-SS-Say, now! [''Mowgli looks up unimpressed, scowls at Kaa, and then sticks his tongue out at him'']'' ''What have we here? [''chuckles''] It's a Man-Cub, a deeliss-ss-see-aws-ss-s Man-Cub.
*'''Mowgli: '''[''angrily pushing Kaa away''] Oh, go away and leave me alone.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Say who are you talking too Mowgli?
*'''Bagheera:''' [''sleeping''] Oh just ignore him Ash. Now, now, now, ''please'' go to sleep, Man-cub!
[''Kaa nods his head in agreement and begins to hypnotize Mowgli'']
*'''Kaa: '''[''imitating Bagheera's sentence'']'' ''Yes-ss-s, Man-Cub. [''singing''] Please go to sleep. Please go to sleep. [''sings this as tuned from "Rock-a-Bye Baby"''] Sleep, little Man-Cub, res-ss-st in peas-ss-se.
[''Kaa begins to wrap his coils around a hypnotized Mowgli'']
*'''Kaa:''' S-SS-Sleep. S-SS-Sleep.
*'''Mowgli: '''[''yawns''] Ba-Ba-Ba-Bagheera?
[''Kaa wraps his tail tightly around Mowgli's throat, choking Mowgli, himself. Bagheera is still unaware at what's happening'']
*'''Bagheera: '''Now there's no use arguing any more.
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Mowgli I know you want to stay in the jungle but can't we discuss about it in the morning?
[''Kaa now completely has a fully hypnotized and smiling Mowgli wrapped around his coils'']
*'''Kaa:''' [''chuckles''] He won't ''be'' here in the morning.
*'''Misty: '''[''glances at Mowgli and Kaa''] Huh? Oh, course, he will, He-HE! AAAAAH! A SNAKE! [''jumps onto Ash's back'']
*'''Brock: '''What on Earth?
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Bagheera who's that snake?
*'''Bagheera:''' Huh? Oh, that's just... [''suddenly realizing what is happening and fully wakes up; alarmed'']''''' '''''Kaa! HOLD IT, KAA!!!
[''Just before Kaa is about to eat Mowgli, Bagheera angrily slaps Kaa's head onto another tree branch, and Kaa bangs his head on it. This makes Mowgli fully conscious and released from Kaa's coils'']
*'''Kaa:''' Ooooh, my s-ss-sinus-ss-s! [''scowls at Bagheera and moves forward to him''] You have just made a s-ss-serious-ss-s mis-ss-stake, my friend. A very, s-ss-stupid...
*'''Bagheera: '''[''nervously'']''' '''Now, now, now, Kaa, I was''..''
*'''Kaa:''' Mis-ss-stake!
[''Mowgli comes up, climes out of Kaa's relaxed coils'']
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Mowgli are you okay?
*'''Mowgli: '''I think so.
*'''Kaa: '''[''begins to hypnotize Bagheera'']'' ''Look me in the eye when I'm s-ss-speaking to you!
*'''Bagheera:''' Please, Kaa.. [l''ooks Kaa in his left eye'']
*'''Kaa:''' ''Both'' eyes, if you pleas-ss-se!

[''Kaa hypnotizes the panther, and now Baggie is fully hypnotized and smiling'']
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' Quick Mowgli, Help me with this.
*'''Mowgli:''' Okay, Ash.
*'''Kaa:''' You have just ss-sealed your doom. [''Ash and Mowgli pushes Kaa's coils off the branch with their feet, causing the snake to comically fall from the tree''] Ooooh!
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Ha that will teach him a lesson don't you agree Misty?
*'''Misty:''' [laughing) Yeah, stupid snake!
*'''Brock:''' (calling down at Kaa) Serves you right, for trying to eat Mowgli!
*'''Mowgli''': Look, Bagheera! [''points to Kaa''] Heh-heh, look, Bagheera? Wake up, Bagheera.
*'''Ash Ketchum: '''Come on Bagheera, Snap out of it.

[''Ash smacks both of Bagheera's cheeks with his bare hands'']

*'''Bagheera:''' [''wakes up''] Uh, duh, wha..?
*'''Kaa:''' [''slithering away, angrily''] Jus-ss-st you wait till I get you in my coils! [''He suddenly stops because a knot in his tail gets stuck between a couple bamboo stems'']
*'''Misty:''' [''laughing''] Hey look guys he's got a knot in his tail.
*'''Kaa:''' [''mimics Misty, sarcastically''] "Hee-hee-hee! He's got a knot in his tail." [''frees his tail, but that causes his whole body to come together like an accordion, then Kaa crawls away now with his bent coils''] Ooooh, this-ss-s is going to s-ss-slow down my s-ss-slithering.

[''Mowgli,'' ''Ash, and his friends continue laughing but stops when they notice Bagheera sternly glaring at them'']  

*'''Ash Ketchum''': ''[nervously laughs]'' Uh... Sorry, Bagheera.
*'''Bagheera:''' Quite. [''turns his attention to Mowgli and smirks''] So you can look out for yourself, can you? [''then smiles''] So, you want to stay in the jungle, do you?
*'''Mowgli:''' Yes. [''frowns''] I wanna stay in the jungle!
*'''Bagheera:''' [''annoyed''] D'oh! Now, for the last time.... [''snaps and both half-smirks (on the right) and half-smiles (on the left)''] ....go to '''SLEEP!!!!'''
*'''Ash Ketchum:''' (quietly) Now, listen here, Mowgli, you may have lucked your way out of this one, but I'm sure there are a lot things out there that'll change your mind. I know the jungle means so much to you, but what Bagheera is doing is for your own good. But in the meantime, just some sleep please.
*(Mowgli pouts as he tries to get some sleep. Bagheera grumbles to himself then he goes to sleep. They all finally went to sleep and settled down for the night).
