(A/N:) I don't have Omi talking in this much...and this is his POV...oops!


I smiled as soon as I woke up. It was already night time, and we were going to be another step closer to Canada by the time it's dawn. I got out of bed and rubbed my bald head.

"Omi, just a few more moths, and we're there!" Jermaine got up as well.

"What's taking you guys so long?" Kimiko walked in, with Raimundo behind her.

"We're coming," Jermaine and I walked up to them and we began to leave the house. Tara waved good bye, after she gave us some left overs from the night before. We ran outside and ran into the night, trying to get to the next stop as soon as possible. We went across bridges, over ditches, through forests, and it also began to rain on the way there, as well. As soon as we got to the next stop, we saw fire coming out of the chimney. Jermaine knocked on the door and the door opened to reveal a very tall and scary looking white man.

"I see you're here a little early. Dinner is almost ready. My wife is best cook in the northern part of South Carolina. Make yourselves at home," he smiled. A smile child ran up to us as soon as we entered.

"Hello," she smiled.

"Hello," Raimundo bent down so he was eyelevel with her.

"Wow, you aren't like the slaves the usually come here," the little girl blinked.

"Don't worry," Raimundo picked the little girl up, "we won't bite."

The little girl giggled as Raimundo tickled her tummy.

"Aren't you the cutest little thing?" Kimiko cooed.

"Thank-you! Everybody says that about me," the little girl giggled.

"Angela, you should be in bed," a beautiful young woman grabbed the girl from Raimundo's grasp and carried her towards the stairs.

"But Dianna! They are my new friends! I want to stay down there!" Angela whined.

"Little sister, you know that you have work to do tomorrow! I'm going to Pennsylvania, so you have to be the best daughter Mother and Father had ever had until it's your turn to go get married," Dianna said.

"Oh, Dianna, don't be such a perfectionist," an older woman said, who was making the dinner.

"But, Mother, she has to go to sleep!" Dianna complained.

"Mommy, please let me stay up late! The slaves are nice, and they think I'm cute and adorable!" Angela begged.

"Of course you can, sweetie!" their mother smiled.

Angela stuck her tongue out at Dianna, as she set the little girl down. Angela ran off and hugged Raimundo's leg.

"Whoa!" Raimundo said after Angela embraced his leg.

"You are the nicest slaves I have ever met! Are you and that girl married?" Angela looked up and Raimundo's face.

"We will be soon," Raimundo picked up Angela and held her close.

"Wow! My sister is getting married to some guy in pencil-vain-ya, and she never met him before," Angela said.

"Well, it's lucky I found true love," Raimundo glanced over to Kimiko, who blushed when he said that.

"Well, it's my duty to marry a rich man to bring some money into this poor family," Dianna said.

"No it's not! You just want to have the money you think you need, but then you'll find out, wealth isn't all it's cracked up to be," Kimiko smiled.

"Dinner is served!" Dianna and Angela's mother sang.

Everybody sat around the table and stuffed their faces with delicious food. But, all of a sudden, they heard a knock at the door.

"Who is it?" the father called. I froze, knowing it was probably a slave catcher.

"It's a person in need, sir," it sounded like a black slave.

"Come on in!" he opened the door and smiled.

"Thank-you, sir," she smiled. She sat down next to Kimiko and smiled.

"Hello, I'm Kimiko," Kimiko smiled.

"I'm Omi," I said.

"I am Jermaine," Jermaine flashed his pearly whites.

"I'm Raimundo," Raimundo grinned.

"I'm Yolanda," she smiled.

"I'm Dianna, and that little girl right there, is my pest of a sister," Dianna and Angela giggled.

"Pleased to meet you all," Yolanda smiled, again.

"Well," the mother said after dinner was over, "time for bed everybody."

Raimundo and Kimiko shared a room, again, while I shared with Jermaine. Yolanda had a room to herself and we all fell asleep in a blink of a eye…I think.
