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.905Please respect copyright.PENANAsFpZKtCwm3
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to905Please respect copyright.PENANAiq6CpEFTBs
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.905Please respect copyright.PENANAVMz28EzpOK
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.905Please respect copyright.PENANAPrSInhwOkV
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!905Please respect copyright.PENANANFO5n8ewws
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.905Please respect copyright.PENANAmVIHMlRUT4
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.905Please respect copyright.PENANASe2C8tFxja
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.905Please respect copyright.PENANAsQoq5dPvrf
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,905Please respect copyright.PENANAhXSRdt1v1b
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.905Please respect copyright.PENANA2ItFHn6Y8U
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!905Please respect copyright.PENANAjoHYsia9iN
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you905Please respect copyright.PENANAibRGquAxqY
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.905Please respect copyright.PENANAU9VVOnlT3d
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.905Please respect copyright.PENANAD5vXUkcyBd
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!905Please respect copyright.PENANAGdABEVooYF
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.905Please respect copyright.PENANA6s1NOWXsK4
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.905Please respect copyright.PENANAqqf8R384mJ
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.905Please respect copyright.PENANAjNDbAJGsob
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being905Please respect copyright.PENANAzGAdQTXuMf
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.905Please respect copyright.PENANAG2rH3eoH6B
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.905Please respect copyright.PENANAlgb00PHPAK
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what905Please respect copyright.PENANA6k5xmb5gIn
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.905Please respect copyright.PENANAtqjyPz1BPc
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.905Please respect copyright.PENANAO6ybnbT67q
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably905Please respect copyright.PENANADcmFIofBZS
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two905Please respect copyright.PENANA0ncKGOTDZW
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.905Please respect copyright.PENANAKzwuAXPXxq
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the905Please respect copyright.PENANA5nQsFiKhKV
door at the end of the hall.905Please respect copyright.PENANAWD8GYF4qa6
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.905Please respect copyright.PENANAb0Rt5s4GCi
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.905Please respect copyright.PENANAclEmyZXPUn
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle905Please respect copyright.PENANAiZOCN9S3Gj
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 905Please respect copyright.PENANAKAzqGye9eG
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room905Please respect copyright.PENANAVeFqVhcYdi
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part905Please respect copyright.PENANAhPPpX3eLgp
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered905Please respect copyright.PENANAFGGmVsOKJh
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.905Please respect copyright.PENANAxJo78BXoY3
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through905Please respect copyright.PENANABIlgwnBMYS
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.905Please respect copyright.PENANAvGlHolpCzI
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded905Please respect copyright.PENANAVjSGQtP4yk
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead905Please respect copyright.PENANAtRKKk0mY0J
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.905Please respect copyright.PENANA1MRDYWZFNJ
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.905Please respect copyright.PENANA9E6onmr2OH
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
