Chapter Seven
To my journal Gia,
it has alredy been 2 yeers sinse I left the plantation and Alex taught me how to rite and fight. Alex has relly taught me alot of things sinse I been free. I got alot better at fihgting in hand to hand combat and fihgting with my sword.
Folks been saying that they going to probly end slavery. But like Aunty always tode me, don't beleive nothing till you see it with your own 2 eyes.
I think im getting used to this new life. I alredy made alot of vampire freinds. I dont relly see Lorena no more. I think she got a cabin in the woods somewere I here she brings in lost soldyers and kills them.
I like to watch the soldyers fight I get to learn alot about combat and war. Alex dont mind me watching the battles he says I can watch from far away as long as I dont intefear. I like to pray for the soldyers, especialy the ones I see dying.
There are 2 soldyers I been watching that impress me. one of them is a yung man whos maybe about my age named Jonathan Hamilton. The other one looks maybee 30 years old and his name is William Compton. Both of the men fight with braveory and cuorage. Im going to keep folowing theese 2 men. I want to see if slavery relly ends and we can be free. In the meen time I will just keep training with Alex, and practicing my reading and writing and following the war.
