I have worked in this house many years, in the house I cooked dinner, I washed clothes, I lived. I did
everything here. In fact, this is the only place I have ever been. I have never left it in my nine years of life.760Please respect copyright.PENANA0QAcnQbYxH
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to760Please respect copyright.PENANARAGOA95KFL
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.760Please respect copyright.PENANANl0RWP0Q8h
I am sure none of this is true. Why is the door locked with a steel chain? Why is a servant positioned there every
night? There must be a secret behind that door, whether good or bad, I have sworn to figure it out.760Please respect copyright.PENANAKfONwG9yUy
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!760Please respect copyright.PENANA9PkrF0lxV9
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.760Please respect copyright.PENANAi1fI2YXa1q
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.760Please respect copyright.PENANAr0y5vsEIL5
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.760Please respect copyright.PENANAeIaJkCYdoe
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,760Please respect copyright.PENANAg7fin2uIxI
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.760Please respect copyright.PENANAE3DvBQsUyq
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!760Please respect copyright.PENANACxBOtp5H8B
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you760Please respect copyright.PENANABh9E2LYXf2
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.760Please respect copyright.PENANAC6pRP47kIg
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.760Please respect copyright.PENANAEZyMC4WjLx
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!760Please respect copyright.PENANAYgIRkwTFdf
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.760Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7ms5BzvEY
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.760Please respect copyright.PENANAsvAVCI3Y8o
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.760Please respect copyright.PENANAzxcVrGQG8j
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being760Please respect copyright.PENANAU3w8pXXYhA
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.760Please respect copyright.PENANANUWsJvMmet
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.760Please respect copyright.PENANAur8cqL4sUn
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what760Please respect copyright.PENANAloLF572yt9
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.760Please respect copyright.PENANAlzYyXFc7Bg
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.760Please respect copyright.PENANAesC6BwcYXG
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably760Please respect copyright.PENANA0y7n6dRNPW
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two760Please respect copyright.PENANA3QeNOyFloW
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.760Please respect copyright.PENANArv6OHQf6e9
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the760Please respect copyright.PENANAmzTxktcLQq
door at the end of the hall.760Please respect copyright.PENANAHbMakCZT5k
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.760Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9yGicL8CU
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.760Please respect copyright.PENANAc4tg2O1QYh
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle760Please respect copyright.PENANAtP9Oh5JexT
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 760Please respect copyright.PENANALhhaQu5lmx
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room760Please respect copyright.PENANADur3ByngwG
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part760Please respect copyright.PENANAENgrXxMLPg
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered760Please respect copyright.PENANA1dynrZjZXu
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.760Please respect copyright.PENANA5TkfBEWPsF
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through760Please respect copyright.PENANAErjulCFtlW
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.760Please respect copyright.PENANAYVOCt0LbPM
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded760Please respect copyright.PENANAtyH2geVO06
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead760Please respect copyright.PENANAnVe7FOyeMz
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.760Please respect copyright.PENANASNkhr0LI2U
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.760Please respect copyright.PENANA6mbJNTKinl
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
