PART III
In the land of the present Kanagawa, Tetsuo and Yohei Mito were doing a part-time job at the Kanagawa Public Library. They were talking loudly as they entered the library and they didn't mind that they were 20 minutes late.
"I never thought we'd be working in the same place. What made you think about working?" Yohei asked Tetsuo
"Well, been hanging around for nothing I suppose I should get a life."
They laughed their way in the library. The librarian wasn't too happy about them. "You're late. I have something for you to fix. Two boys had just been to mess up the restricted area, I think they escaped or something but anyway I want you to clean the area. As you know those books are old and fragile so handle them with care, understand?" she told them. The two just nodded and went their way to the said area.
"Boy, this is a mess." Tetsuo muttered as he saw the pile of books on the floor.
"We can get a job of hunting them down and make them clean their own mess. They think this is easy?" Yohei complained. They started cleaning. Just then, Tetsuo noticed this large torn book,
"Ey, Mito, you think we can throw this away?" he asked the younger boy.
"Er, let me see…" Yohei said as he gave it a look. "…this looks interesting." He muttered as he studied the old book's jacket. "D'you suppose we should consult the librarian?" he continued and turned to Tetsuo. But the older man wasn't listening; he was staring at the torn pages of the book. It looked as though a sudden interest made him drawn to the pages. Yohei looked at him with an unexplained expression on his face. He didn't want to disturb Tetsuo but he proposed,
"Why don't we fix it, you know, put the pages in order and we can, er, you can read it after that." Yohei said. Tetsuo slightly shook his head as if to wake himself up.
"Yeah, right. You do that and I'll arrange the pages." Tetsuo answered as he helped Yohei pick up the torn pages.
When they had collected every page, they put them in order, they were doing it hastily but they couldn't explain why. It seemed as though they were tempted to read it. After that, Tetsuo held the book carefully and looked around.
"I think we're through…er, you don't mind if I read this, do you?" he said. But Yohei was eyeing the book intently and looked at Tetsuo,
"You don't mind if I read with you, do you?" Yohei said. Tetsuo was slightly surprised by this. He smiled at the young boy and said,
"Let's read it together. It looks interesting."
They sat on the floor and turned the book and started reading. They didn't notice how much they were absorbed by the book.

A/N: If you review, we'll keep posting. Again, the plot may have deviated from the original Fushigi Yuugi because we didn't follow the series. Thanks for reading!
