PART ONE - LIFE AT GATESHEAD
CHAPTER ONE
The Fight


As I sat there in the dark, I began to think strange things.


If Mr. Reed 1 had lived, maybe he would have been nice to me. As


I looked around the dark, quiet room, I was afraid that mr.


Reed's ghost might come back. What if he was angry with his


wife for treating me badly? He might rise from his grave 2, and


appear in this room! I was so scared by this thought that I


could not breathe. Suddenly I saw a light moving on the


ceiling 3. It was probably from a lamp outside, but I was so


afraid that I did not think clearly. I thought it must be a


ghost, an angry ghost from the land of the dead! My heart beat


fast. Was that something moving near me ? Screaming loudly, I


ran to the door and hit it with my [-----1-----]. I wanted to


break it open and run far away from that cold, dark room. Soon


Miss Abbott and Bessie came running to open it.
"Miss Eyre, what is wrong? Are you ill?" asked Bessie.
"Please! Please! Let me leave this room!" I screamed.
"Why? What happened?" she asked.
"I saw a strange light in the room. I know it was a ghost," I


cried, holding [-----2-----] onto Bessie.
"There's nothing wrong with her!" said Miss Abbot. "She


screamed just to make us come. I know all her little tricks!"
I heard footsteps 4 in the hall. "What is all that noise?" said


an angry voice. Mrs. Reed came in. "Abbott and Bessie, I told


you to leave Jane Eyre in this room until I said she could


leave!"
"She screamed so loudly, Mrs. Reed," said Bessie softly 5.
"Let go of her, Bessie," Mrs. Reed said. "Jane Eyre, you will


not leave this room until I say you can. Your [-----3-----]


don't work with me! Now, you will stay here one hour more!"
"Oh Aunt, forgive me! I shall die if you keep me here..." I


screamed and kicked as she held me.
"Be quiet!" She pushed me back into the red room and locked


the door. There I was in the darkness again, with the ghosts


and the silence. I screamed until I must have fainted 6, because


I do not remember anything more.
