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.761Please respect copyright.PENANAL89SqMiuOS
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to761Please respect copyright.PENANA051Unm0rZf
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.761Please respect copyright.PENANAZPGSoCQRlp
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.761Please respect copyright.PENANAoSJcVyyIEa
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!761Please respect copyright.PENANAMFQ7NeMAHT
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.761Please respect copyright.PENANAoHktWmrGM9
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.761Please respect copyright.PENANAE7CL95wM2L
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.761Please respect copyright.PENANA6nfNqZfB4i
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,761Please respect copyright.PENANAmmTinIL7gr
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.761Please respect copyright.PENANAYSXFDFe5lR
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!761Please respect copyright.PENANAuaUf0UTq2g
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you761Please respect copyright.PENANAZ86Fs3SOYy
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.761Please respect copyright.PENANAEbOe2rDFJh
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.761Please respect copyright.PENANAOoFm8oCdKw
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!761Please respect copyright.PENANA6NBz6XkLui
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.761Please respect copyright.PENANA0kK9FzGHF5
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.761Please respect copyright.PENANARpvIxfIdZK
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.761Please respect copyright.PENANAmmmcfAUmI6
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being761Please respect copyright.PENANADptIFcgRJg
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.761Please respect copyright.PENANAfrwG8Fepe4
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.761Please respect copyright.PENANAhEOiWmFP6J
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what761Please respect copyright.PENANAwDM6nG78Ae
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.761Please respect copyright.PENANAZUB2MShDCb
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.761Please respect copyright.PENANAegPIlsmvDE
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably761Please respect copyright.PENANADkWHBHQbxP
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two761Please respect copyright.PENANAnuZEEuYD4m
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.761Please respect copyright.PENANAF1GETOaEM9
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the761Please respect copyright.PENANAOnUe9prvNy
door at the end of the hall.761Please respect copyright.PENANAa55Fgoylml
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.761Please respect copyright.PENANAo46QNaYwYW
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.761Please respect copyright.PENANAC1sIMIVR3y
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle761Please respect copyright.PENANA0LjRPIwBCy
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 761Please respect copyright.PENANA3YyW6Rp9RP
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room761Please respect copyright.PENANAXsuFjLrik9
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part761Please respect copyright.PENANANsGukEh0Sk
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered761Please respect copyright.PENANAjwRDi7JzAg
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.761Please respect copyright.PENANAbLAwdPxX36
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through761Please respect copyright.PENANAmqq3dM4WuG
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.761Please respect copyright.PENANA317f70Qcuh
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded761Please respect copyright.PENANAsAmK7f5FUb
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead761Please respect copyright.PENANAzio2rLs64N
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.761Please respect copyright.PENANAAfjFPHBJaW
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.761Please respect copyright.PENANA6vIq12VQxa
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
