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.999Please respect copyright.PENANASCug9SlHR8
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to999Please respect copyright.PENANA6wTCfjkTsr
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.999Please respect copyright.PENANAekIuSXv0lg
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.999Please respect copyright.PENANArzO13PXv1s
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!999Please respect copyright.PENANA5RfItMNR6f
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.999Please respect copyright.PENANAnggqJ1ekpq
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.999Please respect copyright.PENANAlT7TkoFcV6
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.999Please respect copyright.PENANADdoPciQLkk
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,999Please respect copyright.PENANAy4juDAuGkw
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.999Please respect copyright.PENANABbNKP6CuJ0
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!999Please respect copyright.PENANASrWG9gcHym
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you999Please respect copyright.PENANA7erqTLI1Ol
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.999Please respect copyright.PENANAz7ODQuqbuG
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.999Please respect copyright.PENANAtupJfkj2Wl
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!999Please respect copyright.PENANAK4oieRElLr
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.999Please respect copyright.PENANArqiDxx9imK
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.999Please respect copyright.PENANARVzoljgA79
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.999Please respect copyright.PENANAbGLJjoKnm7
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being999Please respect copyright.PENANAzA0LPdKrhG
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.999Please respect copyright.PENANACm17UOudyY
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.999Please respect copyright.PENANAmuIJ2bxrMQ
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what999Please respect copyright.PENANAWvh4iFaAQb
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.999Please respect copyright.PENANAzuEoe2XnK3
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.999Please respect copyright.PENANAGdkYXeCKYz
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably999Please respect copyright.PENANAYTPucHGMTP
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two999Please respect copyright.PENANAMpYJOvn77J
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.999Please respect copyright.PENANAgKP9xiQUTo
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the999Please respect copyright.PENANAD9VBgaODl8
door at the end of the hall.999Please respect copyright.PENANA7hHd5XFAVH
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.999Please respect copyright.PENANA6BIYhA1oHP
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.999Please respect copyright.PENANAhdQ6zhppJF
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle999Please respect copyright.PENANATRc3oIfEVW
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 999Please respect copyright.PENANATtDOmRdoRF
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room999Please respect copyright.PENANArqI6sficm8
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part999Please respect copyright.PENANA1u5nL2VTZn
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered999Please respect copyright.PENANAbiftJjD0ug
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.999Please respect copyright.PENANAGvTYxXx1Av
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through999Please respect copyright.PENANATZOcZWmjiE
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.999Please respect copyright.PENANAI8CiPRGiiJ
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded999Please respect copyright.PENANAyV3mWXyhEG
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead999Please respect copyright.PENANATkxfucFRuE
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.999Please respect copyright.PENANAqWxre87SB2
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.999Please respect copyright.PENANARGLpCBGkFM
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
