Somewhere in the zoo a teacher and her students were next to a bear enclosure with a zoo keeper educating them about bears "The Bear your that lives here can weigh up to a thousand pounds and can become quite aggressive, when hungry these bears devour large amounts of food" The Students got curious since they didn't see the bear

"Ah mister i don't see the bear" One of the students said, the zoo keeper than looked inside 

"He must be sleeping" the zoo keeper said, what he did not know inside the enclosure there was hole that made a tunnel and the tunnel reach somewhere in the jungle, in the jungle a bear escaped that bear was Baloo 

"🎶 Look for the bare necessities the simple bare necessities forget about your worries and your smite 🎶" Baloo singed like the happy go lucky bear that he was, along him was Bagheera sitting in a tree, "Baloo would you keep it down the zoo keepers might hear us" Bagheera said but Baloo continued to sing, Bagheera tried to ignore and looked away "Where is Simba when you need him" Bagheera said, he then turned around and saw that Baloo was gone, "Oh no not again Baloo! Baloo!" Bagheera chased after the bear
