Sleeping Beauty, Fractured Fairy Tail #4


Once upon a time, there was a queen and
king who longed for a daughter

Their wishes were granted when a beautiful princess, 
who they named Aurora, was born to them

They gave her Christening Party, 
and invited everyone in the kingdom to it
 
Everyone, that is, except for the evil witch
The witch did not take this kindly, and crashed 
the party and put a curse on Princess Aurora
"This child shall fall into eternal sleep if she ever pricks herself on a needle!"
~~~~~~~~~
The king and queen were terrified of losing Aurora into an endless sleep, so sent her to live with three kind fairy dogmothers who lived deep in the forest
There was Flora

and Fauna
 
and Merryweather

They promised to protect her and removed all sharp objects from their cottage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aurora grew up and was well cared for, until one day an old woman
showed up on their doorstep when all three fairies were out
Aurora answered the door, and the old woman told her she 
was a travelling seamstress looking for work
The woman asked for work to do, and
when Aurora brought her things to mend
she was pricked by the old woman's needle
Aurora instantly collapsed into a deep and dreamless sleep
out of which they could not awaken her
There was only ONE way to waken Aurora, 
and that was by true love's first kiss
One day, a young prince found the Sleeping Beauty
He bent down and gave her a gentle kiss
Aurora's eyes slowly blinked open,
and she gazed up at the prince
And then she shuddered
This prince was a DOG!
Couldn't his parents afford orthodontics?
She decided she could really do much better 

and closed her eyes

and drifted back to sleep


THE END!
