The next world we headed to was very swampy with an old rusted steamboat and what looked like a hole that lead deep into the world. Before we could decide on a spot to land, fireworks started to come out of one of the steamboat's smoke stacks. One of the fireworks ended up hitting us and we began to go down.
The Gummi ship ended up crashing in a tiny patch of trees. As we emerged, we saw a small girl with light brown hair in pigtails, a blue dress, and a small beat up teddy bear came running toward us. We then noticed that a Pirate Heartless, a couple of Search Ghosts, and a few Hook Bats were chasing her.
We took care of the Heartless before they could do any harm to the girl. When she was safe, she told us her name was Penny and we were currently in Devil's Bayou. She was kidnapped from Morningside Orphanage and brought here by a woman named Madame Medusa and her partner Mr. Snoops. Madame Medusa was using Penny to find a huge diamond called The Devil's Eye.
Just as she said this, two crocodiles and several Pirate Heartless appeared and captured us. The new enemy then started to drag us toward the steamboat. While we were being dragged, I could have sworn I saw two mice in clothes being pushed in a leaf by a dragonfly in a sweater.
When we arrived, the crocodiles, Nero and Brutus, let go of Penny and her little bear and started towards whom we figured was Mr. Snoops. Then Madame Medusa burst into the room and was telling Penny that it was bad she ran away and then sent her up to her room. We then spoke up and asked her why she kidnapped Penny. She then answered that The Devil's Eye was worth millions and Penny was the only that could fit into the entrance to where it was suppose to be hidden.
She then ordered the Heartless to lock us up in an old elevator on that ship to make sure we didn't escape. After we were thrown into the elevator, we tried to figure out what to do. The cage was no problem since I could use the Keydaggers to open the lock at any time but we felt that we should help out Penny. The only problem was the rule that said we couldn't meddle in other world's affairs.
During this whole time I kept hearing the sound of a pipe organ being played really badly along with a bunch of crashing. We then heard a loud shriek come from Madame Medusa then her calling for Mr. Snoops about mice. Then there was the sound of gunshots as two mice in clothes came running out of the room Madame Medusa was in followed by bullets. When everything had calmed down, I saw the mice climb back up on to the boat and they came over to us.
They then asked us if we needed any help getting out of the elevator. I was shocked to hear mice talking to us in English but when you are traveling between different worlds, nothing should come as a surprise. I declined and then released the lock on the door and stepped out. The mice then introduced themselves as Bernard and Miss Bianca. They said that they were sent by the Rescue Aid Society to help out Penny.
She had apparently sent out a message in a bottle a few days earlier and they ended up getting it. We then decided that we would help out Penny. We started towards Penny's room trying our best to avoid the Heartless that were patrolling the ship. We had to fight a few battles but we still made it to Penny's room. Once we had found Penny again, she told us that Madame Medusa was going to put her back down in the cave tomorrow. We then all agreed to go with Penny to help her and came up with a plan as to how to get away from Madame Medusa afterwards.
To make sure Brutus and Nero didn't follow us, Bernard and Miss Bianca were going to lure them into the old elevator and when Bernard and Miss Bianca were out, we would lock the crocs up. Then Penny would go to Madame Medusa's swamp mobile while we set off Mr. Snoop's fireworks to distract her from us escaping. While Penny drove the swamp mobile, we would fend off any Heartless that tried to catch us or follow us.
When we agreed on this, we went back to the elevator to sleep so it looked like we never left. The next morning, we set off toward where I saw the hole in the ground where The Devil's Eye was suppose to be. When we got there, we found Penny complaining that her bear didn't like it down in the hole. Madame Medusa took the bear and pushed Penny into a bucket hanging over the hole. We then followed her down into the hole while Mr. Snoops argued with Madame Medusa about what to do with the diamond.
When we got down in the cave, Penny told us that it used to be a pirate's cave and pointed to a skeleton in a corner in pirates clothes and a sword sticking out of him. There was also a giant hole in the middle of the cave that Penny told us the water came from and she was to scared to check for the diamond over there. We decided to check since she wouldn't since that was the only place she hadn't checked.
While we were looking, Penny moved her lantern and we saw something shine inside of a skull. We asked her to turn her lantern that way again and inside the skull we found The Devil's Eye. There was only one problem, the skull was stuck tight in the ground. The only way we could get the diamond out was to smash the skull with the Keydaggers. Once we got it out, the water started to come in to the cave and fill it.
We climbed up the rope while Penny and the mice came up in the bucket. When Madame Medusa got The Devil's Eye, a whole lot of Heartless appeared. When then learned that The Devil's Eye contained power to increase control of the world's Heartless. All the newly summoned Heartless lead us back to the steamboat including the now neutral sided Mr. Snoops.
Once we got back to the steamboat, Madame Medusa was threatening us with a gun and slowly backing away still with The Devil's Eye no where to be seen but still with Penny's teddy bear. As she backed up, I saw a rope go across the door way and hook on to something that Madame Medusa promptly tripped backwards on. Suddenly small little animals appeared shouting "Charge." Madame Medusa lost her grip on the bear and it went flying revealing The Devil's Eye inside the bear. Penny quickly ran and picked up the bear while everyone went in different directions. Bernard, Miss Bianca, and my party went towards the elevator with Nero and Brutus close behind. Some of the bayou animals kept on Madame Medusa while others went to go set off the fireworks.
Once Nero and Brutus were trapped, we heard the fireworks go off and that was the sign to get to the swamp mobile. All the animals and my party jumped on as Penny started the swamp mobile up. We only had one little detail to attend to before we could leave the bayou. Madame Medusa was clinging onto a rope that was attached to the swamp mobile.
So while Penny drove, we knocked away Hook Bats and knock Madame Medusa back if she got close to us. The only time I got distracted was when someone said to watch out for the now exploded steamboat. Madame Medusa ended up running into one of the smoke stacks and we drove off.
Penny dropped us off where we had first met and to our surprise, the Gummi ship was still able to fly. Penny gave us The Devil's Eye for us to get rid of. I tossed it up in the air and as it came down, I shattered it with the Keydaggers so no one could have that much control of that world's Heartless.
Before we left, a tree suddenly reveled the world's keyhole. We lock the keyhole and figured that the world was now safe from being destroyed by the Heartless. We bid our new friends good-bye and set off. We made a quick stop in Traverse Town to get our ship repaired and set off toward a world that looked like it had Big Ben.
