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.995Please respect copyright.PENANAf6XhnwBn6B
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to995Please respect copyright.PENANAIcFPoYalCm
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.995Please respect copyright.PENANAj7GDe9Uy3W
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.995Please respect copyright.PENANAtjK7aAZ5Gn
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!995Please respect copyright.PENANAUPi7iVcbuB
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.995Please respect copyright.PENANABCp9Kwseqq
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.995Please respect copyright.PENANACWOuJidaP8
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.995Please respect copyright.PENANAQLztDtFEKk
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,995Please respect copyright.PENANAYRVCNgafmA
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.995Please respect copyright.PENANAuqSB7Ey8fC
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!995Please respect copyright.PENANA7iAKEIWQ9G
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you995Please respect copyright.PENANA0c7gEgUvF0
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.995Please respect copyright.PENANAR2QhQwRTCZ
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.995Please respect copyright.PENANANpKSElJjpc
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!995Please respect copyright.PENANApyDhkJNwAs
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.995Please respect copyright.PENANA0oXPkS2WQB
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.995Please respect copyright.PENANATW0QoVrFwE
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAnRogyxjRhu
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being995Please respect copyright.PENANA4tBebr8JfW
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.995Please respect copyright.PENANAE5OHaCKyQc
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.995Please respect copyright.PENANACb0eCq7RSs
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what995Please respect copyright.PENANAiEi71dipym
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.995Please respect copyright.PENANAOik9DJReEh
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.995Please respect copyright.PENANARRcoRGCmG3
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably995Please respect copyright.PENANAxxcBvT6NgU
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two995Please respect copyright.PENANAwgKtOjIbeN
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.995Please respect copyright.PENANAtgkitdr7wD
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the995Please respect copyright.PENANAMEH5H8IOJb
door at the end of the hall.995Please respect copyright.PENANAFlnBAgcDiB
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.995Please respect copyright.PENANAq2OEVahAs2
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAirImPidkvs
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle995Please respect copyright.PENANAmg9Rv12MDu
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 995Please respect copyright.PENANApyV4OMPHI8
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room995Please respect copyright.PENANArjtBS7FcOI
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part995Please respect copyright.PENANAdB1mYXiNs5
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered995Please respect copyright.PENANA0VnJhtZ7hm
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.995Please respect copyright.PENANAoOgsM3SIHF
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through995Please respect copyright.PENANAPOPMAS7DuP
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.995Please respect copyright.PENANAu0Lqpe7zE2
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded995Please respect copyright.PENANAVk9svqr0q7
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead995Please respect copyright.PENANAYyF0gVsJEy
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.995Please respect copyright.PENANARXRRpRzbK2
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.995Please respect copyright.PENANA9Xr6Nvt5HJ
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
