Repent

"悔い改めなさい"

Repent (Japanese: 悔い改めなさい, kuiaratamenasai) is from a misheard line by Mark Wolff while he was fighting Van Darkholme in Lords of the Lockerroom.

Summary

One day, Ikariya Biollante fought♂ against Van Darkholme, the infamous Dark Fairy, in the sexy land of Shinnippori.

Their brawl began with Van's outburst of "FUCK YOU!", becoming so enraged at the land of God that he became dizzy from his black flames of hatred. Such a hateful struggle will never end until the demise of the other contestant, but unusually, Biollante grabbed Van with a look of mercy, mastering gay barholds:

"REPENT."

Those words struck dearly into Van's heart. For many years in hatred, he tossed many innocent fairies into the Netherworld Mage, like gum on the road.

"Do you want me to repent?"

Van began to recall his earlier age. As a child, Van fled South Vietnam with his family during the war, and he was bullied for his appearance. Every day, he ran to his mother, crying as he embraced her.

"Why are they bullying me? Why, why, why?!" he asked.

His mother always comforted him, singing songs about their motherland. For the time being, those songs and the clear night sky were his only relief in his miserable childhood.

It all ended when Van had the worst bullying in his life. He tried to fight back by bashing his tormentor's nose, causing the latter to bleed, and then beating him to a pulp. Scarred by guilt and rage, he tore out his Superman T-shirt and took up bondage. Shaped by his trauma, he only thought that he had to either dominate others, or be their weak plaything, in order to find any happiness from others.

The cheerful and kind little boy was gone.

"I will rule the world as soon as possible, so I and my Mom won't be hated by our looks and the colour of our skin ever again."

The last thing that Van remembered was a tearful smile from his mother, and then his house going silent as his mother's songs were nowhere to be heard. He began to contemplate about his own actions.

"Isn't this fighting to beat me? You don't hate me? Why throw the words 'repent' at me? Fuck! I'm not convinced. Wasn't the fight hating the other party hated, hated, and hated through? ... And why is he standing up when I'm so hurtful? Even if I leak such a pitiful voice."

For many years, the thought of repentance was a sudden tear into his heart. He never knew the concept of apology, for he only knew a life of violence and domination. But of all the victims that he plunged into darkness, only Biollante stood.

"Yes, no matter how pitiful this tricky Superman-like hero was, he surely stood up. Fuck!♂ You abominable♂Ikariya Biollante!"

This important one, who should had been strong enough to be thrown aside, said that "it's impossible to be done" a long time ago. But many months had passed, and he met the "important thing" that he forgot. He also forgot his oblivion, bringing back sweet memories of his carefree days. But at the same time, his burning trauma was rekindled, tormenting him with the resulting inner conflict.

He was puzzled by that maelstorm of memories and emotions that he had not felt in a while, and for some reason, hesitation arose in Van's mind.

Yes, Biollante had seen into Van's mind, and whatever that shaped him during his painful childhood. He was saddened by little Van's hurtful surroundings, but he also felt resentment that Van extinguished his light for the path of evil. He also grieved for all those who took care of him, that their loss doomed him away from what was right.

Gradually, Biollante had to fight Van. Even as Van was beaten up by Biollante's techniques, he only felt kindness with each blow from his opponent's mighty body. Up to now, Van only lived in hatred, but his fight restored his worth in life.

"Is he really fighting me to make me repent?!"

Shortly afterwards, he felt Biollante's thick arms tightly locked around his neck.

"Fuck! This is so awful! I am going to drop dead, but why? Could it be anywhere ... that's ... warm?"

As he slipped out of consciousness, Van felt warmth in Biollante's heavy arms as they closed up on his neck. His hands squirmed out of his mind, as if something possessed their fingers. He heard an orchestra that played a white "firmony" that covered the whole world ...

Van was on the verge of a deep sleep. There, he felt a rather pleasant emotion that drowned out the pain and hatred that followed him in the days of his sorry life.

He might had heard it by then: the same lullaby that wrapped him away from sorrow when he was younger ...
