Oh my goodness. I have no words. 
Let me just take a deep breath... *breathe in, breathe out*
I am amazed by how you pulled this off. The level of detail is astonishing and utterly brilliant. The sets and clothes are just perfect for what you're trying to do. I'm so glad I found this. I was so disappointed to find out that there weren't any more chapters! I'm eagerly looking forward to the next chapter.
I am just... flabbergasted. This is a Sims 3 masterpiece.
Awww, thank you so much! That's like the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me, haha. I've been trying hard to match the Disney scenery and outfits so I'm happy you think they're working! I'm uploading the next chapter right now. Seriously this comment made me smile so much, thank you!

The three fairies arrived and gave their blessings to Aurora, and Drizella showed up as well.
We were crowned, and our children officially became princes and princesses.
Unfortunately, someone wasn't very happy about the good news.
The strange woman who we'd heard all the rumours about just seemed to... materialise into the ballroom, in a blaze of fire.
I heard Merryweather mutter "Maleficent" under her breath. I gave her a curious look.
"Well, isn't this charming!" Maleficent exclaimed with a sweeping gesture of her hands. "I have to say, I'm a little hurt I didn't receive an invitation."
"I'm sorry," Malcolm said politely but firmly. "But only friends and family were invited."
"And you consider these
fairies your friends, do you?" Maleficent said sarcastically. "Despite only having just met?"
"Maleficent, leave these people alone. They've done nothing to you. Please, I know we've had our differences, but leave the past where it belongs". Flora pleaded.
Maleficent's fist clenched tightly around her staff. She appeared to want to say something, but held herself back. Her face relaxed into a cruel smile instead.
"Of course I will - once I have taken what you took from me!" she snarled. "What a darling little girl... a shame she won't live beyond her 18th birthday!"
A stone dropped in my stomach. No. This couldn't be happening.
"Not my daughter." I begged. "Please, don't harm her." I turned to Malcolm, who looked just as shocked as I felt. He was frozen.
With a wave of her staff, Maleficent declared. "The deed has been done. The child will prick her finger on a spinning wheel on her 18th birthday... and die!"
Before any of us could utter another word, she disappeared in a hiss of smoke.
The room fell silent. I wanted to cry.
"We're so sorry." Fauna said passionately. "We wish there was something we could do".
"Why can't you?" Malcolm asked angrily. "You're fairies, for goodness sake. Surely there's something that can be done to help her."
"We can't meddle with death magic." Flora said mournfully. "That's how we got into this mess in the first place."
"But there is something!" Merryweather piped up.
My spirits lifted - they were going to save her!
"We can alter the curse so that Aurora will fall into a deep sleep, rather than die."
They sank again. That was hardly any better. Our daughter would still be gone, albeit in another way. But I suppose out of the options it was the best thing to do.
"Can't we just destroy all the spinning wheels?" Malcolm asked desperately. "There must be a catch."
Flora shook her head slowly. "Maleficent is quick witted. She will have already accounted for that. She will have one hidden away, or simply conjure another."
Malcolm looked crestfallen. He turned to me. "Then there's only one way. She must sleep instead."
I nodded at Merryweather, who with a wave of her wand performed the deed. That was all we could do for now. Unless...
"What if she never pricks her finger in the first place? What if we hide her away somewhere?"
They nodded thoughtfully. "That could work."
I glanced at Malcolm. He shrugged, but looked relieved. I knew he agreed with my idea.
"Then... can she stay with you? You could protect her with your magic better than Malcolm or I could."
The three sisters looked at one another. "It's our fault you're in this situation. So... yes. We can protect your daughter until the time is right."
Aurora, who had been quiet until now, looked up at Malcolm and I. Her lip was quivering, but her expression was brave. "I'll do it. I'll go."
Our brave little girl.
I hugged her goodbye, Malcolm looking on gravely.
"We love you. It won't be long before we can see each other again. And at least this way... you'll be safe."
She squeezed me tightly. "I know. I love you too."
She said a heartfelt farewell to Malcolm, Alice and Arthur, and walked up to the fairies.
"I'm ready."
"Where will you go?" I asked anxiously.
"We'll take her to our cottage we have hidden deep in the woods. We'll place protection spells around it so Maleficent won't be able to find it. She'll be safe there, disguised as a normal girl."
I nodded, trying to keep a brave face for Aurora. I smiled at her. "See you soon."
She smiled tearfully back. And then Aurora walked out of the castle, the three fairies close behind, shielding her.
That was the last time I saw my daughter before her 18th birthday.

Sad chapter! Hope you enjoyed it nevertheless, and the next part will be from Aurora's point of view.
