The Jungle Book

**The Jungle Book** is the eleventh level in *Disney's Final Frontier* and its seventh and final Silver Age level. This level is the most complex as it branches through multiple story paths and features two canonical timeline versions of itself that later unite back into one. Completing three of any of the other six Silver Age unlocks this level.

## Party Restrictions

On your first playthrough of the level in Adventure Mode, you are restricted to the following characters:

* Tramp (Party 1)
* Angel (Party 1)

* Nala (Party 1)
* Simba Tumaini (Party 2, claims to be Udaifu in the Good Version)
* Rikki Tikki Tavi (Party 2, later joins Party 1)

## Main Attractions

Seoni Jungle contains 3 points of interest in Disney's Final Frontier.

* Raksha's Den - This is guaranteed to be the first location you'll come across after your initial encounter with either Simba or Udaifu. This also acts as a rest area as no enemies spawn here.
* Nagaina's Lair - This is the area for one of two Sub-Boss Battles that occur in the main story. After beating her, Rikki permanently joins the team.
* Mowgli's Village - The other safe area of Seoni Jungle. This is where you can find Journal Entry #11.

### Good Version

Simba has ran ahead first to try and pull a fast one on his friends, to prove he has let go of his rivalry with Shenzi Marie. As he contemplates, he comes across a mongoose who was in the middle of his own mission. Simba decides to help him if he can help him with a possible prank. The mongoose questioned his plans, but tells him to try and switch all the signs around to get everyone off track. The plan proves fruitful as he manages to trick the entire Dawn Patrol.

Bagheera and the others prove to be the wiser as they search for Raksha on what is going on. After reaching her den, Raksha rushes up to Bagheera to greet him and his friends. Shenzi is a bit flustered by this after being assumed as his wife. After being told someone was looking for Bagheera, Raksha tells the group some of her pups have mysteriously vanished. The group agrees to help her out and go on their way. Nala suggests they should split up, but Bagheera argued the Jungle is too big for that and they might all get lost too. Shere Khan, however, manages to find one before the group in the meantime.

The trap was set into motion as Rikki watches over Simba hoping he doesn't get into any trouble. The duo, however, manages to find one of Raksha's pups and decides to bring the puppy back to her. Simba figured it would be a good idea to gather materials there as well.

Party 1 couldn't seem to find Raksha's pups anywhere, but as it turns out, they arrived at a tree where three puppies fell down from. Nala felt this was a bit too easy, and as they look up at the tree branches, they learn Kaa was actually "giving the younglings a ride," though his actual motivations are unknown. He does however give a tip that two other puppies are still missing. The team decides to head to the battle ground and find one of the puppies there. Shenzi keeps an eye on the puppies by giving them a ride.

Making their way back to the clan, Simba and Rikki meet Raksha and learn of Bagheera's whereabouts. Simba asks if there's anything he can use for a disguise nearby, making Raksha laugh a bit thinking he must be "the playful one of Bagheera's friends." Rikki states he doesn't have time for practical jokes, and goes out looking for Bagheera himself. Simba, however, thanks Raksha, but Raksha thanks him instead for being kind enough to bring back one of her five missing pups. The two shake on it before Simba decides he should go after the next.

Nala was leading Party 1 now in search of Baloo and Mowgli, when she hears Baloo singing *The Bare Necessities*. Bagheera and Baloo reunite. Nala and the girls introduce themselves. Bagheera passes on the news that Raksha's pups went missing, with Nala adding that they found three of them. Baloo decides to take them back to Raksha himself, while he searched for Mowgli on the way. Nala proceeds to hum the song as Shenzi slaps her. "What? It's catchy!" she said after getting slapped.

Rikki joined up with the party, telling them he left Simba to focus on facing Nagaina, while passing on the info he found one of the pups. This leaves the group with one more puppy left to find. Bagheera explains what he was up to since he left, leading to a hilarious conversation, with a Dr. Seuss reference thrown in for good measure. Rikki requests if he can join the team on their travels after he defeats Nagaina, with Bagheera allowing it.

The party eventually reaches Nagaina's den, with Rikki planning to snuff her out by stealing the egg she's hoarding. Rikki made his way into the belly of the beast, as they say. His thoughts on the snake egg she was hoarding prove to be true. The best way to lure her out was to steal the egg and taunt her into an open field away from the other jungle civilians. Once he grabbed the egg, he started making his daring escape. Then came a booming voice. "RIKKI!" he heard Nagaina say. Rikki taunts Nagaina saying he plans to finish what she started by deleting them from existence. He tells the group to follow him, eventually reaching an open field for the fight against Nagaina. Unable to see both sides' true motivations, Angel helps in sensing their inner thoughts. The team join Rikki to stop Nagaina, eventually killing her and breaking her egg off-screen. Angel leaves to make sure the pups got to Raksha safely while the others search for the last pup.

Angel eventually finds Raksha, Baloo, and Mowgli with four of the five missing pups returned to her. Angel declares the last one couldn't have gone too far and heads back to Party 1. Simba, under the disguise of Udaifu, claims he saw the others and points in a random direction. Angel plays along and follows his directions, only to continue the way she was back to the team. Simba tracks her the entire way.

Simba now takes the opportunity to put the last part of his prank into motion, appearing before the entire group to lead them off the trail of the fifth dog, despite not knowing where the puppy is himself. Angel tells the group Udhaifu is lying, which leads Simba to engage the team in fake combat for "Not Believing in Udhaifu." Nala can be heard laughing a bit from how ridiculous this is. The fight eventually ended up with Simba actually getting battered and bruised with the disguise actually helping him take less damage, but the disguise ended up breaking. He tries to laugh it off, but the group states they knew he was behind all the shenanigans he pulled the whole time, saying they won't report the shenanigans to any of the other jungle animals. Simba then tags along for the last stretch. The team's friendship increases by 1.

### Bad Version

Simba has ran ahead to get back at Tramp and Bagheera for stopping him from reaching Shenzi Marie. In his search for the perfect plan, he tries an initial attack by marking Bagheera's face with a poisoned rock. Simba told the group he has no plans to let them escape, and Nala should stay out of his plan. In the shadows, however, a mongoose named Rikki Tikki Tavi intercepts Simba mid-charge and forces him to fight him, allowing Party 1 to escape. This stalls for time, no matter who won the battle, leaving Simba in a bit of shock. He forces Rikki to team up with him so he could have a proper fight against Tramp and Bagheera. With revenge in his eyes, Rikki mostly focuses on his own plans.

Bagheera and the others managed to escape unscathed. After calming down, and wondering why he's after Shenzi instead of Scar, they search for Raksha for their real mission. After reaching her den, Raksha rushes up to Bagheera to greet him and his friends. Shenzi is a bit flustered by this after being assumed as his wife. After being told someone was looking for Bagheera, Raksha tells the group some of her pups have mysteriously vanished. The group agrees to help her out and go on their way. Nala suggests they should split up, but Bagheera argued the Jungle is too big for that and they might all get lost too. Shere Khan, however, manages to find one before the group in the meantime.

Due to their conflicting interests, Simba and Rikki were a bit agitated with each other as they continued searching for Bagheera. As it turned out, the two were in the middle of a war zone between the snakes and the humans. Rikki was a bit cross with Simba saying it's not that big of a deal and that they should focus on Bagheera. The two, however, come across one of Raksha's pups and they figured Bagheera must've went to see her. The two head to Raksha, as Rikki beckons the pup to follow him.

Party 1 couldn't seem to find Raksha's pups anywhere, but as it turns out, they arrived at a tree where three puppies fell down from. Nala felt this was a bit too easy, and as they look up at the tree branches, they learn Kaa was actually "giving the younglings a ride," though his actual motivations are unknown. He does however give a tip that two other puppies are still missing. The team decides to head to the battle ground and find one of the puppies there. Shenzi keeps an eye on the puppies by giving them a ride.

Making their way back to the clan, Simba and Rikki meet Raksha and learn of Bagheera's whereabouts. Simba is a bit agitated, constantly calling Bagheera and Nala traitors to him. Rikki, however, tells Simba that he has more important things to worry about and decides to follow Bagheera's trail to finish the fight against the snakes. Simba ignores him and taunts the mongoose, much to Raksha's annoyance, telling him he should leave the clan before she forces him out. Simba complies and leaves.

Nala was leading Party 1 now in search of Baloo and Mowgli, when she hears Baloo singing *The Bare Necessities*. Bagheera and Baloo reunite. Nala and the girls introduce themselves. Bagheera passes on the news that Raksha's pups went missing, with Nala adding that they found three of them. Baloo decides to take them back to Raksha himself, while he searched for Mowgli on the way. Nala proceeds to hum the song as Shenzi slaps her. "What? It's catchy!" she said after getting slapped.

Rikki joined up with the party, telling them he left Simba to focus on facing Nagaina, while passing on the info he found one of the pups. This leaves the group with one more puppy left to find. Bagheera explains what he was up to since he left, leading to a hilarious conversation, with a Dr. Seuss reference thrown in for good measure. Rikki requests if he can join the team on their travels after he defeats Nagaina, with Bagheera allowing it.

The party eventually reaches Nagaina's den, with Rikki planning to snuff her out by stealing the egg she's hoarding. Rikki made his way into the belly of the beast, as they say. His thoughts on the snake egg she was hoarding prove to be true. The best way to lure her out was to steal the egg and taunt her into an open field away from the other jungle civilians. Once he grabbed the egg, he started making his daring escape. Then came a booming voice. "RIKKI!" he heard Nagaina say. Rikki taunts Nagaina saying he plans to finish what she started by deleting them from existence. He tells the group to follow him, eventually reaching an open field for the fight against Nagaina. Unable to see both sides' true motivations, Angel helps in sensing their inner thoughts. The team join Rikki to stop Nagaina, eventually killing her and breaking her egg off-screen. Angel leaves to make sure the pups got to Raksha safely while the others search for the last pup.

Angel eventually finds Raksha, Baloo, and Mowgli with four of the five missing pups returned to her. Angel declares the last one couldn't have gone too far and heads back to Party 1. She stops, sensing Simba, and makes a joke about how he's still pretending she does not exist before walking away from him. This was all the more motivation for Simba to track her down.

Simba now takes the opportunity for the perfect revenge strike against Bagheera and attacks Bagheera and Shenzi, this time out for blood with his best set of items equipped (if you removed all his stuff before the battle). Nala stays out of it for her own reasons, but Tramp, Bagheera, and Shenzi decided enough was enough, and they were going to beat the fluff out of the Prince. The fight ended up being one-sided, with Simba being battered, bloodied, and bruised from his own ineptitude and for being blinded by hate. Bagheera stands before Simba with a cross expression, which immediately dropped when he saw a fox casting Cure on Simba. Tod and Nala appear to have their paws on Simba healing him. Simba starts to fall apart unable to understand why he lost, when Tod becomes the one to spell it out for him. Simba then realizes all the mistakes he makes and begs for forgiveness from the rest of the team. Tramp was about to say his crimes can't go unpunished, but Shenzi was able to forgive him immediately, stating he should at least have a second chance with a clearer mind. Simba smiles and joins the party, with Bagheera telling Tod to head back to Figonia. Tod declines, saying he'll keep an eye on Simba, much to the boys' annoyance, but Nala's happiness. Simba's friendship is restored to how it was before the arc began, while Shenzi's Courage increased by 2.

### Both Versions

Shere Khan, as a result, was stalking the group, mainly Simba and Nala due to unfinished business with Scar. He appears behind the group, willing to bargain the two lions for the puppy. Tramp and Shenzi decline the trade, saying the two lions are not on the menu, alongside Shenzi mentioning there's no way they're going back as they can easily see through his bargain. Simba and Nala nod in agreement, much to Khan's annoyance, deciding to kill them all by himself. (In the Good Version variation, Tod joins the fight from behind and starts the battle differently. Tod stated that despite the team's numbers, he sensed Khan's pressure and came to stop him from dealing any further harm. The Good Version is slightly easier if you have Tod learn Blizzard or higher, as Tod will be the main target to Khan for a while for "ruining his pelt.") The Pridelanders finally put their differences aside, standing united to face Shere Khan.

"Alright then... Shere Khan, let's dance. Under the decree of the King of the Pride Lands, I demand your head for treason!" ~Simba before the battle

No matter which version you play, this boss fight is difficult due to Shere Khan's speed, making it difficult to land blows on him. Eventually, the team comes up with a plan, with Simba and Shenzi providing a distraction together, Bagheera using Darkga to blind him, eventually ending with Tod and Bagheera using Rip and Tear with a Sleep Depriver. It is assumed by the group as Shere Khan slips into madness and disappears into the darkness that he's pretty much dead. Tod, now seeing the danger is finally over, takes Simba and Nala back to Figonia.

The rest of the team heads back to Raksha and the others with the fifth and final puppy. Bagheera expresses his concerns over what happened, and believing there's something more to the entire adventure, now knowing Khan and Scar were working together now. Bagheera promises he'll return when everything is finally over. Tramp, Bagheera, Shenzi, Angel, and Rikki head back to Figonia.

None of the team members wondered why Tod suddenly disappeared for most of the adventure, but according to Figment, there was a temporary glitch in the portal after Simba entered that caused Tod to end up on the other side of the jungle away from everyone else, as noted by a Journal Entry Addendum.

## Headless Horseman Boss Fight - Hard Mode

### Rewards

Journal Entry #11
Whip Sword
Eye Scar
+1500 Munny

After beating The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, you can return later to try and get Journal Entry #11. This is one of a few Hard Mode boss battles, which provides a harder variation of a boss you've previously fought in the adventure. As with all Hard Mode bosses, the difficulty is ★★★. Your strategy should focus on Burn Damage now, as the Headless Horseman can now sometimes deal Blizzard Damage. Halfway through the bosses, anyone with an Aero shield will be protected from status effects thrown back at them, but will be hit with a Burn instead, while the exact opposite is for those without an Aero shield.
