SLEEPING BEAUTY

Long time ago, in a faraway land. King Stevan and his queen wished for a child.
Finally a daughter was born and they named her Aurora. To honor the baby princess
the king held a great feast. He also invited his good friend king Hubert to the feast.
King Hubert had brought his young son Philip. The king agreed that someday Philip
and Aurora would be married.

Among the guest were three good fairies, Flora, Fauna, and Marryweather.
They wished to bless the princess with a give. Waving her wand, Flora said, My gift
shall be the gift of beauty. And mine. Said Fauna, Shall be the gift of song.,
Marryweather turn was next. But before the Marryweather could speak, the castle
door flew opened. It was the evil witch named Maleficent. She was furious because
she wasnt invited to the feast. My gift for the child is, before the sunsets on her
sixteenth birthday she shall prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and
die! Then she disappeared.

But Marryweather still had gift to give, so she said, She will not die but she
will fall into a deep sleep and when her true love kiss her, the spell shall break and
the princess opened her eyes!. King Stevan feared the witch curse, so the good
fairies hatched a plan. They would take Aurora to live with them, deep in the woods,
saved from Maleficent. The king and queen agreed with heavy heart.

The years passed quietly, and Aurora grew into a beautiful young woman. At
last the princess reached her sixteenth birthday, in a mossy glen she danced and sang
with her friends, the birds and animals. She told them of her beautiful dream about
meeting a tall handsome boy and falling in love.

A handsome boy came. When he heard Aurora singing he jumped from his
horse and reached out to take her hand. Aurora was startled. I do not mean to
frighten you, but I feel like we have met before. Said the youngman. Aurora felt very
happy. But she didnt know that he was prince Phillip and Prince Phillip didnt know
that she was Princess Aurora.

Back at the cottage, Aurora told the fairies that she had falling in love.
Impossible! cried the fairies. Then, they told her that she was a royal princess. It was
time to return home. Actually the witch Maleficent knew that Aurora was return
home. She became an old lady and a spinning wheel suddenly appeared in the tiny
room of the castle.
 Using her evil powers she lured Aurora to high tower in the tiny room. What
is this? May I try? Aurora asked. The old lady said, Of course, my pretty little child!
And the princess sat down to spin. But the moment she touched the spindle, she fell
to the floor in a deep slumber.

The hundred years were just ended. The witch captured Phillip and chain him
deep on her dungeon. But the good fairies had other plans for him. They melted the
princes chain. And they armed him with the shield of virtue and the sword of truth.
Then they sent him to the palace to awaken the princess.

When the witch saw Philip escaping she was changed into a Monstrous Dragon
to stop him. Prince Phillip threw his sword to sword the witch. Then Maleficent was
no more. Then Prince Phillip raced to the tower where his love lay sleeping. Gently he
kissed her and Aurora eyes slowly opened. The kings and queens planed for the
prince and princess wedding. And they lived happily.
