"Rutta Belster of Warsaw, assigned to the right line ." A woman yells, wearing a matching stripped uniforn and a white cap.
I quickly go to the right line, shivering from the winter chill of Treblinka.
"Leonna Belster of Warsaw, assigned to the left line." The uniformed woman yells again. I see Lynnie, my 12 year old sister run to the left line, we all know what the left line means.
Death.
I stay quite but I am screaming inside. It was less than a year ago when everything was peacful in Mojyra, Poland when it was first occupied by the Soviets. Mama, Papa, Gideon, Lynnie and I were all living peacfully and happy. Aslo went to Canada for college 3 years earlier and Freida went to an orphanage and pretended to be Elisabeth Stokes, a german baby abandoned at our door step like a basket of kittens. Macy, my eldest sister who is now 32 years old has a family in America with her husband Will and son, Jaykel.
"Rutta!, Rutta help me, please help me!" Lynnie cries with fear. I can't turn around, I tell myself, I can't see Lynnie's face because I don't want to remember her like that. Out here it's everyone for themself. We are shoved into showers and hot, sticky water is poured all over my golden blond hair, that had curls that went flat from the water. The water burns my skin. I am forced into another room but this time it was crowded with woman cutting off people's hair off. When it;s my turn the woman looks at my hair and whimpers. " Your hair is too beautiful to cut, here put this cap on." she says. I put on a white cap with my hair tied up in a bun with a peice of dirty string that I found on the ground earlier underneath.
"Tonight you whores go to bed and wake up at 4am for work at the shoe factory or else." says a woman in a heavy german accent. "Or else what?" someone dares to say. "Who said that!." The german woman barks. Several minuets pass and no one speaks up. The woman grabs a girl about my age with long black hair and grey eyes. "What is your name?" The german woman screams in the girls face. "Anabel Hasley, m'am." Anabel choaks out. The german woman takes the bull whip out of her bra, bends Anabel over and beats her and counts 1..2..3..4 and minuets and minuets pass, a woman faints in the back that was watching Anabel get beaten. 221..223..224.. another woman throws up. I start to get dizzy and shake. 302..333..408, We are all astonished that she is still alive, who can take 400 bull whips on the back and butt? I can't help myself but scream "I said it miss." The woman stops at 451, Anabel doesn't have a back anymore only bloody flesh it crosses my mine that she has been dead ever since 82 and the woman has been beating a dead carcus and she knew it. . The woman takes the bull whip and says "What is your name?", I hesitate but I know im going to die, so i say "Rutta Belster of Warsaw ma'm." in the loudest voice I can make. The woman takes mw and beats me unconcious..the last thing that i hear is "Agitha, the girl is going to die, you need to stop at 23!"
CHAPTER 2
I wake up in a pit of dead bodies, my legs are scabbed and severly brused, I have been out here for days. and for a long time I think about my mama and how i watched her brains get blown from her head and i start to wail and i curl up in a ball. "Hello?" a man calls from a distance. "Hello?" the voice calls again. I get excited and prop myself up as best as I can and yell "Yes, I'm here, help please!" I soon see a nazi gaurd wearing a black unniform and I pretend to be dead and peak my eyes open enought to see a slight moving black blur. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you." He says yanking up my naked body. He cradles me in his arms, he is handsome, with dirty blond hair and muddy brown eyes that makes you lost when you look in them. "My name is Derick Zartonstauf, whats yours?" he says similing . "Rutta Belster, Thank you for saving me uhm Mr. Nazi." I say confused as to why an officer in such a high rank is saving a jew from a death pitt. He sets me down and my cap falls off and my golden curls rush down. "You have beautiful hair." He says uneasily. "Why did it not get shaven off?" he asks. "A woman took pitty on me." I manage to say. Derick teakes out a cateen of water and puts them to my lips and takes out a round lup of lop-sided bread from his pocket. "Drink, eat." he says. I chew on the bread until its gone, i drink the half gallon of water with my crack lips until the canteen is dry, i feel revived. "Why are you helping me Derick?, I am only a jew." I say sheepishly. Derick clears his throat and whispers "and im only a cold heartless bastard, but i wasn't in a death pitt, left to rott.". He looks around, thinking very hard. "Would you like to do light chores until your recovered?" he offers polietly.
"Yes, sir that would be wonderful, it's just that I can;t move a muscle in my body sir." I say sadly. " Trust me you can handle them, your a tough one, I can tell." I smile and realise that his hand is wiping away my tears, and then gingerly traces the exhaustion lines on my face. And I don't stop him because I can't help but like it. " Go to sleep now, your safe with me." and for some reason I believed him.
CHAPTER 3 - Derick
She is so fascinating, she is so bruised but still so beautiful, she is so weak but still so strong. I need to watch her, to keep an eye on her, She will be safe with me, after all I am in charge of Treblinka, and I have a crush on a jew. Oh great. Rutta is no ordinary jew scum, I can't describe it. I can have her work as a slave peeling potatoes in the garden. This girl looks atleast to be 18 0r 19 at most and I am 23. If only she was german. I carry her to my truck and the men whistle at me as I go by. I put her in my trunk and leave it open enough for her to be able to confortably breath, I drive to the Officer's mansion and I say hello to my servant Oscer. I lay her down on my bed, that is stuffed with pillows and has a bathroom, I leave her a note and alot of food. I lock my door and pray for her. I think I'm in love with a girl I just met.
