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.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAqfYS3B0MCY
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to1003Please respect copyright.PENANAkZTFqZ1GFq
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA5G3g7afhMk
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.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAicgJsUiT4E
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!1003Please respect copyright.PENANAseL5joRf1W
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA2PkZYkdncL
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.1003Please respect copyright.PENANARaCow73EfI
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAvmtlXrPLrU
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,1003Please respect copyright.PENANAUrFku403lm
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAZwZUjBqj1m
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!1003Please respect copyright.PENANAsLxT7DZQoH
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you1003Please respect copyright.PENANAaA2YXrWAp9
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAZcbJjpqZWm
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAp0vXO0ZpBv
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!1003Please respect copyright.PENANAwioMkBqglO
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAKCMBgQXL9N
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAl30BMYKXtS
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAerbtateH5y
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being1003Please respect copyright.PENANAJc3laM3rNj
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAkpNvlbETl5
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.1003Please respect copyright.PENANACNAriLp3kH
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what1003Please respect copyright.PENANAWbvW0KuJe3
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAjRDOhnbFWV
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA2UOGjPsC8n
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably1003Please respect copyright.PENANAulzxPrb50Y
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two1003Please respect copyright.PENANAk3lv1C30Uw
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAnwgJoGZgv6
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the1003Please respect copyright.PENANAcE2siV3Y0A
door at the end of the hall.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA0WGfOrCwrL
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAJ49DX6lmuf
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAgJ1U1EvDLD
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle1003Please respect copyright.PENANALcqBw7Co3M
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 1003Please respect copyright.PENANAokRTPDU55z
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room1003Please respect copyright.PENANAGTKWrJw34M
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part1003Please respect copyright.PENANA1QNu0BUZFj
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered1003Please respect copyright.PENANATjmnChiGPC
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA0BztAPKuSU
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through1003Please respect copyright.PENANAEXhdSfNrTW
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAiL6lxamMtA
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded1003Please respect copyright.PENANAll1nsDOSjz
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead1003Please respect copyright.PENANAWJdUNq9On3
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.1003Please respect copyright.PENANA3mJscnXBRr
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.1003Please respect copyright.PENANAVTCyZ8Z8Zh
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
