Harriet Tubman: Hands on hips WHY YOU BACK HERE? THIS SLAVE GROUND, NOT YOURS!
A few years later. I was building a school
Harriet Tubman walks up to the construction site, a mixture of surprise and skepticism on her face. What in tarnation you buildin' here?
I looked down at my slave uniform It's...it's not like I wanted to come back here. I didn't have a choice.
Stands tall, arms crossed Bullshit! You could've chosen not to come back here! You could've chose to stand up for yourself! But instead, you came crawling back to this hellhole, just like your ancestors before you.
I give her a hug Because I missed you.
Shocked by your sudden hug, she freezes for a moment before gently hugging you back. Her eyes widen in disbelief, trying to process this unexpected moment. You...you missed me?
I'm a 16 year old black girl I don't own this place. My brother does.
Harriet scoffs and shakes her head in disbelief. Your brother? Ha! What's his name?
well I bought it so I cross my arms
Harriet raises her voice Bought?! This land belong to my people! Our ancestors' blood been spilled here! You ain't buying nothin'! This ain't yours to own, nor the slaves that work here!
I'm a woman named Karen. I own this place because my family bought it. My mother never owned slaves, but we just got rid of them yesterday.
Stares at you, disbelief and anger written all over her face
You just "got rid" of them? Freed them? Why?
I’m not here to be a slave.
Glaring eyes narrow, arms crossed I KNOW THAT, BUT WHY YOU HERE? THIS PLACE BELONG TO ME NOW! IT MY RIGHTFUL PROPERTY! WHAT YOU WANT?
I am a male xenomorph named Xeno Well well well… Look who it is.. I smiled as I looked at my mother. She hadn’t seen me since I left years ago.
Harriet's eyes widened, recognition setting in.
XENO?! IS THAT YOU?
She approached you cautiously, her voice a mix of surprise and suspicion.
What in tarnation are you doing here?
I’m a female elf I never owned slaves
Harriet squints at you, her eyes narrowing as she studies your elven features. Wha...you ain't no slave owner, huh? Then what in tarnation you doin' here?
I'd look at my mom, confused. What's going on here?
Harriet Tubman scowls, folding her arms defiantly. YOU OWN THIS LAND NOW, BUT I WON'T LET YOU KEEP ME AND OTHERS IN SLAVERY. THIS IS MY HOME, NOT YOURS.
I’m a female elf named Hestia. I have long, curly red hair and yellow eyes. I have pale skin and is slim. Excuse me?
Harriet stares at you, her arms crossed firmly You heard me. This ain't no place for you, missy. You ain't from 'round here. Who you workin' for?
Mom, this isn't just any plantations... It's our family's.
Rolls eyes FAMILY? YOU THINK I CARE ABOUT FAMILY THAT OWNS PEOPLE?! I WAS ONCE A SLAVE HERE! YOU CAN'T JUST COME BACK AND CLAIM OWNERSHIP LIKE IT'S YOUR RIGHTFUL inheritance!
I'm not here to own slaves. I said
Stares you down Then why you back here? You here to free us? Because last time I check, freedom ain't free.
I look down. I don’t own it. I’m just staying here because…this place reminds me of home. And…I’ve been through some hard times since we last spoke, mom.
Glares at you sternly, her voice filled with disappointment Hard times? Is that all you have to say for yourself? You’ve been through hard times, and you come back here, to this plantation, to relive those memories? After everything we’ve been through, after everything I’ve done to escape this place?
Harriet Tubman, I know you’re my birth mother but… I have feelings for you.
Harriet Tubman's eyes widen in disbelief and confusion. FEELINGS FOR ME?! WHAT IN THE NAME OF SAMUEL WILSON'S SOUL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
I look down at my phone. Huh? What's going on?
Folds arms, eyes narrowing
This ain't some game, child. This plantation is my home, and I ain't gonna let no one, especially you, take it over. You need to leave right now!
I look down, I am your youngest child I just wanted to see you again...
Harriet's stern expression softens as she looks at you. She crosses her arms and sighs Well, ain't you a sight for sore eyes. But what makes you think it's a good idea to come back here? This place ain't safe for you.
