The story begins with the birth of Princess Aurora, a beautiful and kind-hearted child who appears destined for greatness. However, unbeknownst to the royal family, a dark and malevolent force lurks in the shadows, watching and waiting to strike. As soon as Aurora is born, the wicked fairy Maleficent learns of her existence and, fueled by a deep-seated jealousy and resentment, decides to curse the princess to prick her finger on a spinning wheel and die on her 16th birthday. With an ostentatious flourish, Maleficent announces her wicked plan to the gathered fairies, including Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather, who are tasked with attending to the royal child. The three good fairies are so horrified by Maleficent's declaration that they vow to protect Aurora from her fate and ensure her happiness. Despite the boys' banishment from attending and communicating through walls elsewhere, the king and queen decide to raise Aurora as a male, in a bid to avoid this very danger. Thus, the princess and future queen spends her early years as a young boy named Briar Rose. However, under the watchful eyes of Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather, Aurora grows into a beautiful and vibrant young woman. Unbeknownst to the royal family, as soon as she is born, the wicked fairy Maleficent casts the full curse of the sleeping princess by attending the christening after all.

As the three good fairies frantically search for a solution to break the curse, Aurora is trapped inside the enchanted castle, and her future husband is doomed to a long, never-ending sleep.
