Disney Heroes Vs Villains War
Warning the heroes
n the Native Land, Bambi, Kenai, and their friends were called together by the Forest Elders, including Grandmother Willow, the mandrill shaman Rafiki, and the voodoo priestess Mama Odie. The Elders warned the gathered animals that they had divined that Maleficent, if the captured princesses were freed before they could be sacrificed to Chernabog, was prepared to use the ancient spirit of destruction, the Firebird, to kill enough innocents to summon the Black God. Since the Spring Sprite was the only being that could summon the Firebird, they must keep her from falling into Maleficent's clutches. In addition, the Elders had foreseen that heroes like Pocahontas, Kuzco and Pacha, and the Seven Dwarfs would play crucial roles in defeating Maleficent, but needed help against the forces of evil.
Helping the group of animals
The Witches of Morva watched with delight as Kuzco and Naveen's group searched in vain for a way to become human and stave off the Witches' plans for them. Suddenly, they were found by Rafiki, who said he could help them, much to the Witches' dismay.Meanwhile, Tiana, Naveen, Kuzco, and Pacha (now dubbed "Team Human Again" due to their mutual goal) were led by Rafiki to Yzma's palace in the Andes Mountains. Rafiki departed, but not before leaving the team with the mysterious request to rub any lamps they found in the palace.
Saving Mowgli,Timon and Pumba
Meanwhile, as Kaa was about to devour Mowgli, Rafiki leapt from the underbrush and beat back the python with his staff. As Kaa retreated, Rafiki revealed to the other heroes that he had been investigating the conspiracy himself. Mowgli, Timon, and Pumbaa arrived and saw Simba and Tarzan circling each other with paw and spear ready. Just as the two were ready to finish the fight, Mowgli, Timon, and Pumbaa jumped in between them. They then informed Simba and Tarzan of how they had seen Scar murder Kerchak. Any doubts were put to rest when Rafiki vouched for the three. As Simba and Tarzan realized what had really happened and began to make amends, the hyenas nervously slinked away to tell Scar and Shere Khan of their plan's failure.
Battle with Forces of Nature
As the fire grew worse, Scar and Shere Khan confronted the Forest Elders, who were protecting the Spring Sprite from the chaos. To make matters worse, the Firebird finally arrived and began unleashing its inferno. The Forest Elders urged the Sprite to flee while they held off Scar and Khan.Just then, Simba and Tarzan arrived to help, alongside the Forest Elders, who had survived their encounter with the villains.
