"I have found a kindred spirit," he answered. He held up
the book, The Best of Jules Verne. "He has all kinds of cool
stories about what's in the earth and in the ocean. I wish I could've
met him."
"Great. See ya!" Sakura was amazed that he was at once he
was quiet and at a loss for words. Then she saw something even
amazing. Lee was sitting on another bean bag chair in front of the
fantasy section reading his choice. He was smiling!
The book had a familiar picture of a sword in a stone in anvil and
read The Once and Future King by T.S. Eliot.
"I didn't know you we're the fantasy type, Lee," Sakura
whispered.
He looked up at her, and his smile faded. "For your information,
Sakura, I have always liked Merlin. He was the greatest wizard of all
time, next to Clow Ree. He's the only reason England is as great a
country as it is now."
"I thought he was fictitious."
"Don't be a ditz, Sakura! Merlin and Clow Ree were best friends!
If you even dream about being a Cardcaptor, you have to study
him."
Lee refused to say anymore after that. Sakura sighed. "Well,
there goes King Arthur, huh Madison?"
"Yeah. Come on, let's go find something else."
The girls reached the library and met up with lots of their friends.
The students were scattered around all kind of departments in the
library. They saw Zachary right outside the sci-fi part sitting on a
beanbag chair. He seemed thoroughly involve with his book. "Hey
Zachary!" Sakura greeted. "What did you pick out?"
