Chapter 30 The Jungle Boy
Its been a few days since the 4-12 incident and everything in the valley seemed normal.
Right now Sean was fast asleep next to Korra.
However suddenly Sean was giving a vision of a jungle before seeing a Tiger had cornered some boy who had tan skin black hair and brown eyes wearing a green leaf loin cloth and had a tiger claw necklace around him.
Waking up Sean panted lightly before sitting up rubbing his face.
"Mmm. What?" Korra asked waking up and sitting up with him.
"I don't know. I think I just saw a vision." Sean said.
"Of what? What is it?" Korra asked.
"I saw a boy. Around maybe 7 or 8 years old. From the looks of things he clearly lives in the jungle had a leaf like loin cloth. Tan skin black hair and brown eyes and had some necklace with a tiger claw if I recall correctly." Sean said.
"What do you think it means?" Korra asked.
"I think...Athena or one of the other gods is trying to tell me something." Sean said.
Morning
Sean ate his morning meal at Jodi's with everyone else.
"So he had a vision big deal. Doesn't mean anything." Burt said.
"He's had visions. Some of them served as a warning. Others to tell him something important." Korra said.
"So who is this kid then?" Tyler asked.
"I don't know. But if Athena or another god sent them to him...It means something." Korra said before some large truck parked outside the store.
"What in the hell?" Burt asked as they walked outside seeing Asami walk out. "What you got there?" Burt asked.
"A new line in transportation to anywhere in the world." Asami said as a large crate was placed down before revealing some advanced device.
"Now what is this?" Jodi asked.
"It's called a Zeta Tube. Think of it like this. Instead of having to spend hours traveling by car or plane...This takes you there in a second." Asami said.
"Intant teleportation. Not bad." Burt said.
"Glad you think so. This is currently a Prototype but it can take you anywhere in the world. And to get back through here all you need is this." Asami said holding a device in hand.
"Hmm." Sean said having flashes before walking to it. "Does it work now?" Sean asked.
"Yeah?" Asami asked.
"I need to see something real quick." Sean said inputting coordinates.
"Where you going?" Korra asked.
"To see where this visions lead." Sean said turning it on before going through with the device to come back.
"I think he's just gonna find nothing." Burt said.
Later
Sean appeared within the jungles of an unknown location.
"Hmm." Sean said looking around before seeing some temple that held some pink glowing jewel at the top. "Now why does that look familiar?" Sean asked.
"It should." Aphrodite said appearing before him. "This is one of Gaia's temples from beyond Greece. The Crystal bestows a powerful gift to the animals. Allowing them higher intelligence as well as the ability to speak." Athena said.
"Ah, so why am I here?" Sean asked.
"Theres a boy here who has potential and I'd like you to bring him back with you so he can learn about the rest of the world." Athena said before they heard a fierce roar followed by a yell. "And that would be him now." Athena said as Sean walked off to find him.
In the cliffs a young boy was in a small corner big enough for him to escape from the Tiger after him.
This boy was known as Mowgli the Jungle boy or Mancub as most called him.
He had tan skin with black hair and brown eyes with a tiger claw around his neck and a leaf loincloth.
The Tiger in question was the self proclaimed King of the Jungle Sher Kahn who once more was trying to kill him for his hatred of man.
"Nowhere left to run this time Mancub! Your little friends aren't here to save you...What...HEY!" Sher Kahn yelled as he was pulled back from trying to get Mowgli. "Who do you think you..." Sher Kahn tried to say before a fierce roar was heard making him yell in shock as he ran off in fear.
"What?" Mowgli asked crawling out before seeing a foot in front of him.
"You ok?"
Mowgli looked seeing Sean who looked at him.
"Yes, thank you. How did you scare Sher Kahn off?" Mowgli asked as he pulled him out.
"Lets just say I'm not exactly all human. So, who are you?" Sean asked as he sat down on a Log.
"I'm Mowgli. That was Sher Kahn. He's out to get me because he hates Man." Mowgli said.
"For good reason or selfish reason?" Sean asked.
"What the difference?" Mowgli asked.
"Man's not exactly what you call the most compassionate species at the moment so they may have done something to him that made him that way. On the other hand he could just not like them which leads me to believe he's selfish." Sean said.
"Oh. I hadn't thought of that. I don't know honestly." Mowgli said.
"Mowgli!"
Both turned to see a black panther and Bear run to them.
"I'm ok. He...Whats your name by the way?" Mowgli asked.
"Sean Ashburn Kruger. I was sent here by a vision." Sean said.
"Oh? And who sent you?"
"First why don't we introduce ourselves. My name is Baloo. I'm Mowgli's teacher. The Panther is Bagheera." Baloo said.
"Pleasure. I was sent by a god to collect Mowgli. To teach him about the rest of the world." Sean said.
"The rest of the world?" Mowgli asked.
"Aye. This is only a very small part of the Earth. Theres much more to learn." Sean said.
"But why Mowgli?" Begheera asked.
"Perhaps because he's always interested in learning new things." Sean said.
"Could I?" Mowgli asked.
"Hmm. We need to speak with Akela about this." Baloo said.
Later
The Wolf pack led by the oldest and wisest member known as Akela listened to what Sean had told them.
"So you wish to take Mowgli away so he may learn more about the world?" Akela asked.
"Yes, I believe in time Mowgli could learn a great amount from where I'm from and use it here to help others." Sean said.
"No!" Mowgli's siblings Bala and Lali said.
"We won't let you take him." Lali said.
"Both of you stop." Akela said.
"But Akela." Bala said.
"He never said Mowgli wasn't coming back." Akela said.
"Hmph! He probably shouldn't." Akela's grandson Phaona said.
"Do you have something to say worm?" Sean asked glaring at him making him tremble from the cold glare that could freeze rivers.
"I apologize for my Grandson Master Kruger. He's not exactly fond of Mowgli for his own selfish reasons." Akela said.
"Keep your mouth shut." Sean said making Phaona whimper. "Now then. Mowgli is free to come back whenever he chooses. I give you all my word I will not force him to stay." Sean said.
"Well?" Mowgli asked excited.
"Hmm. Give us till morning to decide would you?" Raksha asked.
"Of course." Sean said.
Later
Mowgli looked at the temple seeing the jewel at the top.
"Lost in thought?" Sean asked standing behind him.
"I want to learn more than what I can here...But." Mowgli tried to say.
"You don't want to leave your family behind. You will be allowed to see them when you wish." Sean said.
"How did you get here anyway?" Mowgli asked making him smile.
"Technology. Instant travel. Thats how I arrived and how I can get us back." Sean said.
"So I could come and go when I want?" Mowgli asked.
"When it's more perfected since the Zeta Tube as it's called is still being perfected." Sean said.
"Oh." Mowgli said.
"But I assure you that you can come back anytime you wish." Sean said.
"As long as I can thats all I care about." Mowgli said making him smile.
Next day
"After some debate we have decided to allow Mowgli to accompany you to teach him." Akela said.
"Very well." Sean said.
"On the condition that he be allowed to return every 3 months." Akela said.
"Very well." Sean said.
"He should never be allowed to come back." Phaona said.
"Phaona, that is enough." Akela said.
"No, that thing..." Phaona tried to say before Sean grabbed him by the neck and strangled him.
"Be...Quiet." Sean said throwing him into a tree making him yelp in pain.
"It's about time someone put him in his place." Behgeera said as Baloo laughed.
"Bye Mowgli." Bala and Lali said.
"Bye." Mowgli said as Sean opened a portal before they left.
Later
Mowgli now dressed in blue jeans with a white shirt ate at Jodi's table.
"So the vision was real after all." Korra teased Burt who snorted.
"Fine I was wrong. Even I can see that. But what makes him so special anyway?" Burt asked.
"You know what I honestly think? I think Athena led him to him to add a new sibling to the list. Turok was in the same position and look how close they are." Korra said.
"Oh, I see. Gives him something to appreciate having." Burt said.
"Yup. You know he's grateful he things he has and fights hard to protect. This just adds more incentive to do so." Korra said.
"You realize I can hear you right?" Sean asked at the table making Korra laugh.
"Hmph." Burt said.
Authors Note: Yeah Kinda Short but it was a good chapter. I got this idea after watching an old clip on youtube during the 2010 series of the Jungle book. Will there be other siblings Sean will have adopted in time? Oh yeah. But for now he just had Turok and Mowgli. Now this was part of a large update to introduce my new Legend of Korra story which is a Star Wars Crossover. Revan's Legacy. Read, Review, Fav and Follow. REVIEW MY LOYAL FANS! SEE YA!
