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.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88nBlxWLxI
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3BbOBD3DL
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAsNibJJ8A
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.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKxSDiQU6P
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1hwqZrEBH
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd0rYc5Sik
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsTfTXXpos
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2leTK37nci
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaRT5UGtAG
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92jZ00sDqx
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MQFManW5T
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm791BuyNkk
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO5WrVLpsd
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjx1XRiNgQ
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsJrZqr79l
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1PRyB8Sle
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgXzpQaY4N
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhOqooBxmg
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnukStvC9M
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi41Y9AMPow
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmB4kOyCsE
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFwV16HD6G
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE21YHITDKT
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSOJ79UYaG
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARHRu1eNo0
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA352CXnnqH
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpm0kFO2Wv
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElsOJrbtEK
door at the end of the hall.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSXmBj7cwu
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ2NVsdRE2
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat75QmtzOA
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk8eQerIDB
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ9rIP3gUy
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaIOtRQlwG
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5MCVueISb
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydvsGNGCj1
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG12a7y9u9
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee52fxNZKX
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf87UasYKfH
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkt2hsC0ic
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDyDuiZdPg
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKSmtTiRrJ
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.880Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFL0nj4B58
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
