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.1155Please respect copyright.PENANA6wfUV5kXEj
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to1155Please respect copyright.PENANAwPispgOw5w
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAlxY3iAVc3V
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.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAm1oB6JwcXy
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!1155Please respect copyright.PENANAQhj2Dv47A5
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAU4rO0uihgf
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAX4v5Ik3skB
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.1155Please respect copyright.PENANApV9HbuJOIW
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,1155Please respect copyright.PENANAP1xCBGKIv8
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.1155Please respect copyright.PENANADCVzQUWkRY
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!1155Please respect copyright.PENANAbxnF5CG2TJ
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you1155Please respect copyright.PENANAJL8wTYQGbW
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAf8oMDVIQh3
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.1155Please respect copyright.PENANA8vlzhD7R3x
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!1155Please respect copyright.PENANAXeBqC1Cjtp
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.1155Please respect copyright.PENANArXI4z3VAhp
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAOOjrpTK7vP
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.1155Please respect copyright.PENANA7B06isF0c6
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being1155Please respect copyright.PENANAacjOweHUTW
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAsDJLPWtWta
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAEStbsPZ3xG
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what1155Please respect copyright.PENANACYEr9qlLjO
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAxX2lG2VAOZ
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAA9L26V99oa
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably1155Please respect copyright.PENANA4mUCK8NOQH
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two1155Please respect copyright.PENANAoYVT1bsQak
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.1155Please respect copyright.PENANA3lAnKvefpC
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the1155Please respect copyright.PENANA6meYOvFg0d
door at the end of the hall.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAapeGFwdYj0
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.1155Please respect copyright.PENANA17ryy5eQCY
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.1155Please respect copyright.PENANALOashM2ISE
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle1155Please respect copyright.PENANAHsXHLcUMuO
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 1155Please respect copyright.PENANA2ltGDvmlDM
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room1155Please respect copyright.PENANAm42ENQb3Y7
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part1155Please respect copyright.PENANASZQ60P2vbY
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered1155Please respect copyright.PENANAq7CQ9m5EC7
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAzCw4plfuF5
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through1155Please respect copyright.PENANAaiuuqMsOlo
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAuHyaGGGFro
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded1155Please respect copyright.PENANAwUrM3IT5XQ
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead1155Please respect copyright.PENANAMfiQrovGQR
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAW3tlUi0Gdw
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.1155Please respect copyright.PENANAo3pSUBVwkQ
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
