Following Bagheera's instructions, Baloo unwillingly confronts Mowgli and lies to him that he never considered him a friend, hoping that Mowgli can change his mind about staying with him. This forms a bond between Mowgli and the Indian elephants. Using his tricks, he fashions a rope to rescue the baby elephant. At night, Mowgli hears a cry for help and discovers that a baby Indian elephant is trapped in a deep pit. Although tension is raised between the three, they all agree to sleep on it until the following morning. When Bagheera returns to fetch Mowgli, he discovers that Mowgli has decided to live with Baloo. Confident that Mowgli will return again, Shere Khan takes over the pack. He demands that the boy be handed over to him. Back in the jungle, Shere Khan visits the wolf pack looking for the "man- cub." When Akela states that Mowgli has left the pack, Shere Khan kills Akela by throwing him off the cliff. Together, they form a close bond and Mowgli decides to stay with Baloo until the winter season arrives.
In exchange for saving Mowgli's life, Baloo tells Mowgli to fetch him honey which is atop a cliff, to which Mowgli unwillingly agrees. Having successfully wrapped Mowgli in her coils, Kaa attempts to devour Mowgli, but he is rescued by a sloth bear named Baloo Bill Murray. Kaa's hypnosis shows Mowgli a vision of his father being killed by Shere Khan and of himself as an abandoned infant being found by Bagheera and also warns of the destructive power of man's "red flower". Mowgli, now alone, stumbles upon a thick canopy where he meets Kaa Scarlett Johansson, an enormous Indian python who lures him in with promises of safety and an assurance that she knows who and what Mowgli truly is.
However, en-route, Shere Khan ambushes them, injuring Bagheera while Mowgli manages to escape with the help of a herd of water buffaloes. Bagheera volunteers to guide him to the human civilization.
But before a general consensus is reached, Mowgli voluntarily decides to leave the jungle for the sake and safety of his pack. Thus, a debate and argument arises amongst the members of the wolf pack as to whether or not they should keep Mowgli. He holds the scars on his face as proof of man's cruel and destructive nature and issues a warning that when the Water Truce ends and the Peace Rock disappears, he will come for the boy. He detects Mowgli's scent amongst the crowd and threatens his life since man is not welcome in the jungle. The peaceful gathering is disrupted when the fearsome Bengal tiger Shere Khan Idris Elba makes his presence felt. Truce, a timeout called during a drought that enables all animals to gather at a water hole without fear of being eaten by larger, more predatory animals.
