BC Sol, from his current knowledge, is one of two teams representing Spain, the other being Sunbat United. He is currently the captain, with Free De La Hoya as Second-in-Command, Kristina Kuroda is the manager, and Raul Comas is their current Bey Trainer since Trad Vasquez was away. It appears that BC Sol has a big rivalry with the American team: The Raging Bulls which his best friend Shu Kurenai is currently managing. He said he wanted to clean the mess that Theodore Glass created.

Another interesting fact is the word "Sol" in the team's name is Spanish for "sun", referring to the team's sun-shaped logo. Meanwhile, BC is short for "BeyClub".

It also appears that BC Sol has been around for generations; he found out that Jinbei Kuroda, Kristina's grandfather, and Raul Comas were once members of the team. And then it hit him, he doesn't know anything about the past of BC Sol. Of course, as a young child, he had no interest in history. But with current (paranormal) things happening, he believes there is more than meets the eye to this place.

He needs information. He needs to know more about the history of BC Sol to unravel the mystery that has been haunting him, and he's willing to put his life on the line. Silently walking through a deafening corridor with his every step echoing, Valt was scared to death. With his hand shaking, he held onto the lamp he brought, which illuminated the walls and his feet, though he could not see farther than that.

He shivered when cold air passed through, Valt silently wished that he had brought his blanket, but at 2:00 am, his brain functioned just about as well as a rock. Adrenaline and determination was the only thing keeping him going, though he felt like he could pass out any minute.

He was relying only on his mental map of the place to go to his target destination, which was a stupid idea. Valt had a horrible memory. Gradually, he stops and looks up. A cursive "Biblioteca" appears at the top of a wooden polish door.

He's flooded with relief, as he was just about to give up and sleep in the hallways till someone wandering around found him.

Slowly, he puts the lamp on the floor to pull out his two small hairpins from his pocket. Lockpicking was one of Valt's talents, though he didn't use it often. He fumbled around with the lock until a comforting click sound echoed throughout the empty halls. He grabs the lamp he set down and scurries into the library. He looks around the dark library. It doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, just a few unstacked books here and a few loose papers there. He walks up to a cabinet labeled "News". Valt shakes his head and sighs, this would take him forever to sort out. He sat down and scrambled through numerous old files, documents, newspapers, reports, and folders until he found them.

It was titled, "Origin of BC Sol". He had struck gold! This was exactly what he was looking for.

He opened the folder to find a lot of old wrinkled and blurry newspapers. His excitement was immediately squashed as he saw the titles of the papers. Spanish.

At this point, Valt was just about to throw in the towel. He wasn't fluent in Spanish, and could hardly make out what was trying to be conveyed in the passages. He flipped to the back of the articles, and bam! His solution appeared right in front of him. The back of the paper had the English translation of the newspaper.

He started reading all about how BC Sol rose and won in the Nation Tournament, European League, and World League, and how they became the no. 1 team in the world. This shows how successful this club is. But that's not what he's looking for. Suddenly, in the bin of junk, he found a very odd headline.

El terremoto de magnitud 7,0 sacudió España.

He was confused because this newspaper looked like it was about an earthquake; how did this relate to BC Sol? Then he remembered an old ruined stadium. The earthquake must've once hit the BC Sol grounds and created damage.

That could be considered a memory of how this place survived, but what he's more confused about is the last newspaper.

He can't read what was written; a bit of black smudge covered the headline, but he could make out the word niño, this was the one article that didn't have an English translation. Suddenly, a disgusting smell coats his senses.

He sniffs the air and realizes it's the newspaper. He had thought it was old but he realized it smelled like... blood?

Before he even realized what was happening, the old newspaper he was holding was now fully covered in blood. He quickly dropped it on the floor but it left stains on his hand.

His heart starts beating faster till it's the only thing he hears. He takes a deep breath to calm down his nerves but when he thinks he's finally getting better. A hand suddenly wraps tightly around his neck causing his previous anxiety to come back.

He whimpered in pain as he tried to let go but his captor is a lot stronger than him. He's almost out of breath at this point.

His captor finally moves over his ear and whispers "You should know that curiosity killed the cat, Valt"

That's the last thing he hears before the darkness swallows him with the sight of his captor grinning maliciously.
