Creation (Clow gen)

Rating: G
Disclaimer: Cardcaptor Sakura belongs to CLAMP.

Summary: Clow creates Kero and stares into the eyes of the lion that ended his loneliness. Story assumes that Kero and Yue were created separately.

The guardian he had created brought him to his knees in amazement. Somehow it hadn't seemed so real on paper. Even as he drew the circle and spoke the words, he was doubtful that this would work.

There it was, a creature he had created out of nothing, a huge, glorious lion with tawny fur. He was huge and looked as though the moment he woke that he would spring up fiercely. The wings tucked to his side were huge and cream-colored, the muscles moving as he breathed. This was power, the ability to create something like this.

Slowly golden eyes opened and the lion yawned. He turned his head around, seeming to study his surroundings, and when his eyes found Clow, they locked.

"Clow?" Cerberus said, feeling the strange word come to brand-new vocal cords and not knowing where he had learned it.

"Yes," Clow said, wide-eyed. His glasses slid down his nose. Deftly Cerberus caught them with one paw, and then leaned up on his hind legs and rested his front paws on the master's shoulders. He might be brand-new, but he knew Clow was important. He was here to love Clow. This was his... father.

To Clow's credit, he didn't protest the hug of a three-hundred pound lion; he shut his eyes and gently wrapped his own arms around the furry form. Tears of joy escaped from his eyes. Finally, he was no longer alone.

Cerberus pulled away, back onto four feet, and stared up into Clow's eyes for a long moment as the magician hastily wiped away the evidence of his emotion.

"Is there anything to eat?" the lion asked pitifully, and Clow laughed. This was more what he expected.

"Of course, Cerberus," he said, leading his guardian away (and half-wondering if he should rethink the name of his "fierce" defender).

You know, that's certainly a possibility. I touched on it with one of my Clow/Yuuko [livejournal.com profile] psych_30 fics, and I am planning a claim with Yue/Clow in [livejournal.com profile] 30_angsts... so you might see another one of these creation fics one of these days.

This fic makes me happy too. It's a happy fic. ^^
