It was a late morning for Free De La Hoya. He normally didn't sleep in but I guess today was an exception.

Looking around he realized he was back at BC Sol but Free didn't remember going to BC Sol. He tried recalling last night but all he could think about his dream.

There were lots of flashes of light and bursts of energy. It didn't really seem like a dream but he did remember Fubuki. His dark resonance was different from Red Eyes or Aigers. He didn't know what but there was something off about it.

Getting out of bed he felt a little bit smaller like he shrunk or something. Rarely when Free woke up he felt taller but he'd never felt short waking up.

Two other beds were in the room, one was neatly made and the other was messy. The curtains were also closed letting in a little light.

Opening up a drawer across the bed he found Valt Aoi's clothes. Checking the other drawers he found Rantaros and Kits clothes too.

Odd Free didn't remember having a sleepover with Valt or Rantaro. In fact Free would never have a sleepover with them. Going over to the mirror that's when he saw it.

A confused Valt Aoi with messy hair and pajamas stared back at him. Making sure it wasn't a joke he touched his face and Valt in the mirror did the same. This did not look like the face of the world champion at the moment.

Getting ready for the day, Free put on Valts clothes and headband. Going back over to the mirror he looked more like Valt. Grabbing Valtryek off the dresser he tapped into its power.

Then opening his eyes he was meant with the dark horse himself. The horse looked like it was lost in thought while Valtryek just stared at him. The horse's hair flowed in the wind and Valtryek raised his sword and pointed it to Free.

"You. Are. Not. Valt."

The horse neighed in response, turning its head to look at Free its eyes glowed.

"I know and that's why I need your help." Free said while putting his hands up in defense.

"I'm trapped in Valt's body. While he's trapped in mine. I'm Free De La Hoya."

"Hmmmm... Fafnir's master,"

Free nodded his head in response.

"Fafnir told me earlier what's happened, we will work on fixing this for now don't worry about it. And Free?"

"Yes Valtryek."

"Thanks for being brave and asking for my help. I will try and guide you through the day when you need me."

Free nodded his head in response and smiled.

Then it all went away and Free found himself back in Valt's room. Valtryek was a bit intimidating but he was glad she was helping him. Reality came back to Free and he realized once again the situation he was in.

Looking down the hallway to make sure there was no one else Free made his way to the forest.

To Frees luck most of the members from BC Sol were eating breakfast. Just as Free was about to make it outside he ran into Kris. Frees eyes widened like a deer in front of headlights

"Oh Hey Valt, did you sleep in again?"

"Uh yeah and I was just on my way to breakfast but I've got to take care of something first bye!"

Free ran outside away from Kris, as he ran he did a mental face palm at his Valt Aoi impression. He sounded to forced as he talked like he was tense or something. He needed to relax and he knew just where to go.

Running into the forest he slowed down looking around. It was another beautiful crisp morning. The sun was barely peeking through the trees creating shadows. Birds were singing and crickets were still cripping.

Stopping that's when Free saw it, the old abandoned bey stadium. Vines were twisting around the old structure making it look even more ancient.

Parts of the structure were broken or gone but after what it's been through most of it was still standing. Going up to the stadium Free grazed his hand over the stadium.

He could feel the lines of impact and landings of beys. If only the stadium could talk the stories it would tell would be impressive.

Snap.

Free turned around to see his deer staring back at him. Free tilted his head and smiled. The deer did the same but when Free reached out his hand for comfort the deer went back into the woods. Frustrated he balled up his fists.

Leaving the forest he knew there was no point in staying there anyways. Just as Free was about to enter the dining room he bumped into a young girl about his size.

She had light sky blue hair and orange eyes to contrast. She wore a orange and white shirt with jean shorts and blue tennis shoes.

"Hey Valt! What's up?"

"Uhh nothing I was in the forest practicing and I was on my way to breakfast."

"Oh if I didn't know any better I'd say you're acting like Free De La Hoya."

"Ha, good one."

They both headed into the dining hall and they were met with the wonderful smell of bacon and eggs. Ange was behind the counter cooking while the chatter of bladers filled the air.

Sitting down in the middle of the dining room. Free felt out of place. In the background Free saw Rantaro and Kit sitting together. Or Drum trying to sit with Delta.

Ange brought him a plate of food.

"Here you go Valt just the way you like it."

Free hated to admit it but he didn't like anything on the plate so he just nibbled on the toast.

"You're quiet today Valt got something on your mind?"

"Uhh yeah I'm just thinking about what I'm going to teach you today." Free smiled as an attempt to look like Valt. Instead his forced smile only made him look more awkward.

"Well I had an idea, you see my brother Vincent has been in a rough patch lately. I mean at first he was..."

As Valerie talked on and on about her brother Free got distracted by Valt or Valt in Frees body texting.

Valt
I'm still stuck in Japan, the flights have been cancelled due to bad weather. How are things on your end?

Free
Okay, your prodigy Valerie is very talkative and she mentioned something about her brother. Do you know anything about him?

"So that's why I think we should track him down and..... Valt are you listening?"

Free put Valts phone away and looked back up at her.

"Uh yeah, you said something about your brother..Valentino?"

"Vincent."

"Yeah Vincent."

"Are you okay today you're acting kind of weird."

"I'm just tired that's all."

"Says the guy who slept in."

"That's not the point the point is your brother Victor."

"Vincent."

"You know what I mean, now I think I know someone who can help us."

"Who?"

"Wakiya Murasaki."
