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.954Please respect copyright.PENANAJFe5Wbg4j4
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to954Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZT8VBX1Tv
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.954Please respect copyright.PENANA2AZNu4RpTe
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.954Please respect copyright.PENANADbgDrblJqj
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!954Please respect copyright.PENANAaktPOTvCr1
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.954Please respect copyright.PENANAp8952SB1pV
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.954Please respect copyright.PENANA41DLlppqFJ
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.954Please respect copyright.PENANAulcrj5FUsE
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,954Please respect copyright.PENANAfRyxTJTLKc
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.954Please respect copyright.PENANAlxeeuklWII
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!954Please respect copyright.PENANAv2TDI5n8VW
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you954Please respect copyright.PENANAgA7YD8XJez
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.954Please respect copyright.PENANAVBswXOSsUg
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.954Please respect copyright.PENANAhjbHBLxq7f
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!954Please respect copyright.PENANA7A9VL2lx0r
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.954Please respect copyright.PENANACk8Wljh3Pn
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.954Please respect copyright.PENANAKPM3yt4Zko
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.954Please respect copyright.PENANAYJgQtPZ1jp
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being954Please respect copyright.PENANAbDUWnyuVQP
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.954Please respect copyright.PENANABKp3zBwR2B
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.954Please respect copyright.PENANAJDgDuyCdB7
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what954Please respect copyright.PENANA5rlWoaVXAp
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.954Please respect copyright.PENANAIafZtL2k0h
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.954Please respect copyright.PENANAJkZCeCcnpV
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably954Please respect copyright.PENANAndPmYM4GX4
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two954Please respect copyright.PENANAmL1x2hrFDU
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.954Please respect copyright.PENANAaI6VIkKuHE
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the954Please respect copyright.PENANACsR19pTihb
door at the end of the hall.954Please respect copyright.PENANAPfeLioqGA8
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.954Please respect copyright.PENANAVIO4nRWJk6
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.954Please respect copyright.PENANA3iST5eicE9
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle954Please respect copyright.PENANAIjOuKayHjg
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 954Please respect copyright.PENANAc5rxuFsnl9
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room954Please respect copyright.PENANAdEOhgM93iL
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part954Please respect copyright.PENANAfmXNDUOE3u
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered954Please respect copyright.PENANARQXNDZZCbO
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.954Please respect copyright.PENANA57CjdBvDQz
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through954Please respect copyright.PENANAVEneQCfwY3
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.954Please respect copyright.PENANA7DiW8eKFZE
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded954Please respect copyright.PENANAmxsyhYZLlG
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead954Please respect copyright.PENANAB7kXeQkXHj
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.954Please respect copyright.PENANAOqXT7sjCyF
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.954Please respect copyright.PENANAO0gkpDJPAa
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
