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.935Please respect copyright.PENANAIpTKnCwd2F
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to935Please respect copyright.PENANAF1yMeU7ppY
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.935Please respect copyright.PENANAfTOeRUpe2l
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.935Please respect copyright.PENANAIll2Ubn0z3
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!935Please respect copyright.PENANAXz9VDxS7eL
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.935Please respect copyright.PENANAZlr0HjTO2S
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.935Please respect copyright.PENANA0Nl8h6I1Oa
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.935Please respect copyright.PENANAleqHZhevN4
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,935Please respect copyright.PENANAYtINHpbjcR
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.935Please respect copyright.PENANAdgjYShughQ
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!935Please respect copyright.PENANAgwoBKNrR5N
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you935Please respect copyright.PENANAN6mGagcUuJ
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.935Please respect copyright.PENANAl4OT95FWcI
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.935Please respect copyright.PENANAwPH1Psk7FF
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!935Please respect copyright.PENANAgeSAmZuUqf
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.935Please respect copyright.PENANAC0ncLUGEps
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.935Please respect copyright.PENANAnLibgcYCVb
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.935Please respect copyright.PENANAfs8zZGySwV
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being935Please respect copyright.PENANA1UM4LF4SEy
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.935Please respect copyright.PENANAd7RoRMZhaj
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.935Please respect copyright.PENANABi9X7iPayS
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what935Please respect copyright.PENANALhYwdiW0Pw
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.935Please respect copyright.PENANAnGDOyV6M7B
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.935Please respect copyright.PENANAWiw9x3zSHA
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably935Please respect copyright.PENANA61z1m5pOCA
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two935Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3Hnox1pBl
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.935Please respect copyright.PENANAz1kmgpnYp0
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the935Please respect copyright.PENANAWYtbbskSpv
door at the end of the hall.935Please respect copyright.PENANAAHlVcKVYTC
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.935Please respect copyright.PENANAfpyg75A1E7
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.935Please respect copyright.PENANApuGqPOWGU5
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle935Please respect copyright.PENANAnQvjiVWTHa
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 935Please respect copyright.PENANASQuefibVpD
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room935Please respect copyright.PENANAcocdKI6ylb
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part935Please respect copyright.PENANAgafVYip0Jr
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered935Please respect copyright.PENANAov6UE0mzAJ
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.935Please respect copyright.PENANADWSjkBJY2U
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through935Please respect copyright.PENANAsE3DEbyEdq
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.935Please respect copyright.PENANADJdwGYsfUK
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded935Please respect copyright.PENANAXWb9ZPUdyR
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead935Please respect copyright.PENANANcF14YBG7v
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.935Please respect copyright.PENANAvY1m2u9BMx
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.935Please respect copyright.PENANAodYQwTw4AO
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
