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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXzSgKCPkLT
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to759Please respect copyright.PENANAJWR2RHA0U6
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.759Please respect copyright.PENANAAh8zk943Oy
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANADlHba9yudC
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!759Please respect copyright.PENANAJqYBIBqKxD
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.759Please respect copyright.PENANAXyErMDeLLj
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.759Please respect copyright.PENANA6mS08VxzfA
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.759Please respect copyright.PENANAcLNtCqYxMg
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,759Please respect copyright.PENANASOYBawG8zT
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.759Please respect copyright.PENANAQcN8wjwCHE
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!759Please respect copyright.PENANAB0X8Ibcvpp
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you759Please respect copyright.PENANAkDa1KigRWC
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.759Please respect copyright.PENANA2tv5hG6Fee
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.759Please respect copyright.PENANABn2q2v8brK
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!759Please respect copyright.PENANAcKbWMLe6WT
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.759Please respect copyright.PENANAbVB0OZpuLN
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.759Please respect copyright.PENANAHpaGNn5034
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAR1tX3OESQz
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being759Please respect copyright.PENANAv8GAWurNFR
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.759Please respect copyright.PENANALRwM82a4ox
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.759Please respect copyright.PENANAtHjlh9uYwl
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what759Please respect copyright.PENANAucmOW8wEnT
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.759Please respect copyright.PENANAszI3UVawRG
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.759Please respect copyright.PENANALQQsmHyPaC
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably759Please respect copyright.PENANAZP32A3zqUf
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two759Please respect copyright.PENANAgHfmw5ENZN
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.759Please respect copyright.PENANACVY1uuvq1i
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the759Please respect copyright.PENANAkIfzxhmpL4
door at the end of the hall.759Please respect copyright.PENANApkkMNgSw0I
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.759Please respect copyright.PENANAZUlC9I1zzH
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.759Please respect copyright.PENANA3RjNOfUZvQ
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle759Please respect copyright.PENANAA1nuwAwRIZ
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 759Please respect copyright.PENANAi3IDqHEJEH
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room759Please respect copyright.PENANAqXlQ6mApgv
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part759Please respect copyright.PENANA2HLjTuvKFI
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered759Please respect copyright.PENANAPZae8jjaUw
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAkEKOKD2e6m
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through759Please respect copyright.PENANANMrfMtPLHI
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.759Please respect copyright.PENANAUuWD8JL9F3
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded759Please respect copyright.PENANAxDYltWCBP5
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead759Please respect copyright.PENANAKZz5v9HJDH
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.759Please respect copyright.PENANAFisy1alJlL
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.759Please respect copyright.PENANAb6rHIN0Hoq
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
