Chapter 5
When the time of morning arrived where the rain had stopped at the break of dawn, the sky continued to look cloudy and dark . Every lock to the cell of the buildings were unlocked for the slaves to step outside and do work which would be assigned by the guardsmen and the warden . A metal rattled over the iron bars waking every one of them in the early hours of the day .
Penny rubbed her eyes with the edge of her palm, getting up to see the door of the cell open which made her feel slightly relieved . This meant the slaves weren't bound inside the cell room which was good news to her . At least there was a thread of hope and for a drowning man, a thread of hope was sometimes more than enough but she was yet to explore the world in here which was unknown to the outside world where she had come from .
She had only stepped out of the cell when she came to see many slaves walking past her . She noticed the way the lights in their eyes had vanished and looked dead without any expression, "Where are we going?" She asked her cellmate who started to walk to join the other slaves . Penny hurried to walk beside her with the rest of the slaves down the little corridor .
"You will see . "
Penny wished her cellmate could give her more information in her replies but everything she said left a mystery which she wasn't exactly looking forward to . It was only after she saw the other slave's faces didn't she feel better to have someone who at least spoke .
"You have come on a fine day, Penny . Meet the warden . Make sure you never cross him . No matter what never fall under his eyes," said the woman . Penny's eyes searched near the walls to see a man in uniform who looked young to be called as the head in charge of the slave establishment . He had sharp red eyes that scanned the slaves that walked past him .
Just before their eyes could meet, she turned to look ahead of her . A wise decision would be to listen to the person who had lived here longer than she had . It made her question as to how long it had been since the woman had been living here . By looks, she didn't appear to be of her age and would have been someone who was at atleast five to six years older to her .
The slaves abruptly stopped and she wondered what had happened before she heard one of the guardsmen order them not so nicely, "Strip you, slaves!"
What? Her eyes bulged wide . Her head snapping left and right to see the slaves around her starting to shed their clothes . Where they serious?!
She was in no way taking off her clothes in front of so many unknown strangers . It wouldn't have mattered if she even knew them! Stubborn, she stood with no indication of removing the clothes that she wore when the guardsmen who had given the order noticed one of the slaves who hadn't moved an inch .
"Didn't you hear what I said? Remove your clothes," the guardsman who spoke to her was buff in the physique . Pricky beard covering his jaw which was currently clenched at the disobedience caused by one of the slaves .
