Episode 12

Shutting the door behind him, Valt began packing with no destination in mind but only to get away.

Him snapping at Fubuki was proof he was losing the inner battle against Theodore which meant he needed to figure out how to control this or Theodore would get to him.

Taking the map out of Theodore's box Valt took a picture and closed his bag right as there was a knock at the door.

"Just a minute!"

Hiding the bag on the side of his bed he opened the door to reveal Sasha.

"Oh Hey Sasha, what's up?"

Coming in she had a worried look on her face as she sat down on his bed. Glancing at the bag she hadn't seen it yet.

"It's Fubuki have you seen him? I'm worried."

Something snapped in Valt in that moment, maybe it was Fubuki angering him earlier or maybe it was because of something else but whatever it was Valt couldn't take it anymore.

"You're worried about Fubuki, Sasha? What about me!"

His eyes started glowing blue again and his resonance was building up.

"Do you know what it's like internally fighting Theodore, feeling him drain my power slowly and yet you're worried about Fubuki! You guys are so busy with your own problems but I've had to train everyday just to keep him at bay and just to remain in control!"

Looking down at Sasha she wore a scared expression causing Valt to take a step back and his power to died down.

"Valt...I."

Clenching his fists Valt once again sprinted down the hallway and out the doors.

He knew going into the forest wasn't an option and neither was BC Sol so instead Valt hung out on the roof watching the forest. He felt bad about leaving Fubuki in the forest but he couldn't have him telling everyone what he witnessed or at least not until right away but at least Sasha didn't suspect anything about him being corrupted.

But the thing that surprised him the most was how scared Sasha and Fubuki had been.

Watching Sasha, she made her way to Kris's office in a hurry.

Going back to the exit Valt was about to leave when something in the shadows caught his eye. Turning back around a figure was walking towards the stadium in the middle of the dorms.

That was the trespasser Drum was talking about!

Glancing one more time at Kris's office Valt sprinted back down the stairs and out the door following the figure to the center of the dorms where the stadium was.

The figure's features were now recognizable as Delta. Which was strange because he was supposed to be on that trip with Rantaro.

"Delta, what are you doing here? I thought you were with Rantaro..."

Delta launched cutting off Valt.

"I saw you in the forest." He said with a mundane voice.

Launching again, Devolos took the center with Delta watching the whole time.

"Listen Delta whatever it is you think you saw..."

"I know what you are, Valt or more accurately I know what you're becoming which is why I want to battle."

Holding out Devolos it sparkled but Valt couldn't help but feel like something was off somehow. But regardless Valt made his way to the other side of the stadium.

"3...2...1...Let it Rip!"

Right off the bat Valtryek began speeding around the stadium while Devolos took the center.

Valtryek came in from every angle attacking over and over while Delta watched silently.

Each time they collided the more Valtryek glowed and Valt's resonance got stronger and darker.

Meanwhile Delta smiled watching Valt's dark power finally come to light.

"You know I'm surprised you haven't told your little fan club what's really going on with you..."

"Wait what did you say?"

With Valt distracted Devolos knocked Valtryek back, attacking keeping Valt on his toes.

Theodore used to call the rest of BC Sol my fan club...

Looking back up at Delta his resonance was barely showing but his eyes were glowing as he smiled.

Devolos kept knocking Valtryek back until Valtryek was rickoceting off of the stadium and back to Devolos back and forth Valtreyk was trapped.

"What's the matter Valt, is that all you've got? I've seen your power before and I know your holding back."

Looking back up at Delta his eyes were now glowing teal instead of red.

"Theodore? But how?"

Horrified Valt took a step back scared.

Devolos closed in, trapping Valtryek against the stadium wall.

"I've always been here, Valt, watching you from the shadows. How do you think I've been able to leech away your power so easily?"

"But you're in jail!"

"I may be stuck in this incursed cell but what matters more is how long you're going to last. It's only a matter of time before your little secret is out."

"What do you want Theodore."

"I have a proposal to make."

Devolos let go of Valtryek and went back to the center.

"You're a bad man Theodore, what makes you think I'll join you willingly?"

Theodore started laughing and Devolos started slowing down.

"We're not so different Valt, you bladers are all the same. Always striving to be the best but I'm not here for you. You'll come when you're ready but I'm for the mask."

"The mask? But you already have Phi's power?"

"Just give me the mask Valt and in return I'll leave you and your friends alone."

The glow in Delta's eyes started dying down and Theodore started losing his concentration.

"No. I don't care even if you're not telling the truth I'm not giving you the mask."

"Fine then,"

Devolos came to a stop and Theodore and or Delta picked up the bey.

"You win this time Valt, but there won't be a next time and soon your little secret will be out. It's only a matter of time."

Delta and or Theodore turned leaving Valt watching as he went.

A couple hours later after stretching from sitting on the cold hard concrete floor Theodore Glass's newest visitor came in.

"Delta, did you find a location on the mask?"

"No not yet Theodore but it's somewhere in the basement. I'll keep searching once Valt's gone."

"Good, and with Valt out of the way it'll be easier to pick them apart one by one."
