Excited to delve into a highly important task, Sirius seemed to have arrived more organized than usual. Through normal means, it would’ve been impossible for the likes of him to even be able to enter the town of Silva, or so he’s heard. With his arms behind his head, he eagerly crosses its borders and welcomes the place with a smile. The castle town of Silva is known for its prominent and professional traders. He knew this much, which is exactly why he saw this as an opportunity. But even he understood that it wouldn't be that easy, if possible, at all. The chance of him getting the attention of any of these fancy folks is zero to none. Which is why this quest meant a lot to the likes of him. At the very least, proving himself dependable to the Silvas could open new possibilities. What he didn't expect, though, was that his quest would be to take care of a spoiled, rotten baby. And so, he stepped inside the castle, and though he lost himself a bit at the start, he found his way. Meeting up with the parents did NOT make the situation easier. They were demanding and expected nothing but perfection from him. Still, his optimistic attitude made him push through. After having a long conversation with Sirius outlining his duties, the couple showed him to their daughter's quarters. Upon first glance, she would seem to be a fairly young child. One could estimate around 4 or 5 years of age. With well-kept hair and an elegant, embroidered white dress, and a graceful, seemingly rehearsed demeanor, it is more than evident that she belongs to an important family.
After a cordial greeting to her new carer and a loving farewell to her father and mother, they dismissed themselves to perform their duties, leaving their little, sweet Borat in the hands of Sirius. Soon after the door closes, he stares at the child strangely before throwing a plush toy at her while keeping a minimum distance of ten feet away. The fabric of the toy was super soft and had a quality that far exceeded his understanding. The small item also had the shape of a round cloud and looked like a pillow. The child flinched and squealed as the plush projectile made contact. She picked it up and gave a long, cold, judging stare at Sirius. "Why did you do that?" she yelled, questioning him. Sirius freaks out a bit, noticing he underestimated the whole situation. He looks around, hoping his presence would go unnoticed, but he did throw a pillow at the girl. He comes to his senses and apologizes to the kid, offering an explanation as he does. "I was hoping you would grab it and fall asleep for the duration of my stay," he replied honestly, avoiding her gaze. The little girl squishes the pillow and abruptly exclaims while tossing the pillow back in a sassy and seemingly violent fashion. "No, I'm not feeling like it." The pillow is rushing towards him like a bullet; he manages to dodge it, barely escaping it. The pillow hit his right shoulder and backfired into a really expensive painting. The family portrait drops and shatters into pieces. His mouth opened completely in shock. He desperately tried to put the frame back together as if it were even possible. The little girl gasps and covers her mouth in shock. "Oh, you are in so much trouble!" She laughs loudly and puts her hands to her stomach, letting out small wheezes in between each cackle. Triggered by the girl, he abruptly orders her to bring him some glue. In the meantime, he continued trying to solve the biggest puzzle he had ever had to solve. "Hurry up, girl!" he frustratedly shouted. Borat replies with a smug look on her face. "Me? I don't know where that is. She hops on to the bed and hugs a soft lion toy. It has a bow and seems to be well looked after. She leans her ear to the lion's head and makes a whispering sound. "What's that, miss Penny? You're asking why the new nanny is so clumsy. " She takes a pause and looks at Sirius, exclaiming that Miss Penny would like to know his name. The girl doesn't seem to care about Sirius' predicament.
Sirius sighs, realizing that the whole situation is hopeless. Until he had a wicked idea. He turns his gaze over his shoulder and to the girl, with a sinister expression. "You are right," he says, dramatically using mannerism to heighten his spectacle. "Maybe it is my fault for instigating the pillow fight, but the proof says otherwise that YOU," he takes a spin and lands forward, pointing at the child. "You will take the fall for my carelessness, and for that I thank you, my lady," he said, as he bows and grins at her with an award-winning fibbing expression. Borat raises an eyebrow and looks at him seriously. "Mommy won't believe you." She takes her small lion and motions it at Sirius. She speaks in a higher pitched voice, seemingly speaking for her toy. "You still haven't told me your name!" He was taken aback to see and hear her speak up for the toy. He also noticed how well kept it was. "You see, girl, your mother might be swayed by your cuteness, but it is her eyes that she would believe above all.", he begins to walk from one side to the other, excited to share his plan. "With your toy, I, Sirius Hasapis, magic knight of the renowned Purple Orcas, shall stage the perfect crime." He then gazes at the toy with ill intent. He then proceeds to menacingly laugh, taking short breaths of air between certain intervals. The girl pulls back her toy and hugs it, shielding it away from Sirius. She looks at him seriously. "Penny says she doesn't like you." It seems that the knight is looking more confident than ever that his quest will go exactly as he planned. "Well then, why don't we play a game?" he innocently suggested to the girl. He sat down and crossed his legs, resting both arms on his knees.
Sirius began to explain the rules of hide and seek, but this version has a twist in that it states that magic is allowed. The winner would get to play with the doll, while the loser would instead get to obey, without question, the victor. "So, what do you say?" he stretched his arms, waiting for her to decide. The girl looks at Sirius pensively. She quickly turns around to consult with her doll, making whispering sounds once again. It's a bit comical. She turns towards Sirius once more. "You mean you'll do anything I say?" Her face lights up and turns into a mischievous grin. While still on the ground, he crosses his arms and seriously shuts his eyes off to think better. Certain of his plan, he opens his gaze abruptly and moves his head in agreement. "You should know, little one, I don't plan on losing no matter what!" he says with determination as he stares without flinching. Little Borat 's grin widens. She hops off the bed and does a quick twirl while holding Miss Penny. She sticks her tongue out childishly and taunts him, putting her hands to the side of her face and laughing. "Hide and seek is for little babies! I'm going to beat you, you'll see! And then you're going to have to do anything I say! Before we start, though, bring me some juice. " He gets up and goes to get her a drink, but when he returns, she has already left. Sirius set the juice on the living room table. For a moment, the little girl underestimated the magic knight. She spews nonsense about being the daughter of an aristocrat, and how, from her perspective, that alone already made her unbeatable. Sirius, with one hand over the other, summoned two golems made solely of bone. With an open grimoire, he orders his puppets to scatter and search for the little girl. Outnumbered, the girl ends up using her noble flame spell, which hexed Sirius’s thin, hollow puppet endurance. Her hexes also dealt damage, scorching a lot of the area, which puts Sirius in a predicament since he can’t fight back. It was inevitable, and Sirius ended up losing... or did he? "I accept defeat," he said with a smile on his face. Little Borat got irritated a bit. "Why are you smiling?! You lost, I WON! " She yelled while threatening to burn Sirius with her spell. He nods his head in response. "Yes, you did." At that moment, they are interrupted by the kid’s parents, who come inside only to welcome their home being scorched down. Sirius stands and approaches the noble couple only to apologize for not being able to quench their daughter’s rage. The aristocrat stopped Sirius and instead commended him for his bravery and resilience. In turn, despite the obvious chaos, Sirius gave praise to their daughter’s skill. After a brief conversation, he leaves, but not before sticking his tongue out at the girl, mocking her behind her parents' back. The girl was stunned, and although she was young, she clearly understood how Sirius set her up. After their big fight and being tricked, her rage turned into a smile. Afterwards, she developed a sense of rivalry, promising to defeat Sirius someday no matter what.
