From Prisoner B-3087
I looked out through the cracks of the crawlspace
Goeth was coming closer, all shining black leather boots and crisp black uniform
One of his dogs lifted its ears and looked right at me
I pulled back away from the wall
"We're trapped
We have to get out of here." I was almost choking onmy own fear
"And go where?" Thomas hissed
"If we leave, they'll find us in the barrack!"
"I don't care
We can't be caught here."
I pushed my way up and out of the crawlspace
I gasped, filling my lungs
But if I didn't really want to die, I had to move quickly
My heart was thumping, but it made me feel alive, and feeling alive made me want to stay alive
