Chapter 9: The Prince in Chains

1. The prince rode deep into the forest, hoping to meet the girl he loved.

2. But he did not know that Maleficent’s raven was following him.

3. Maleficent’s minions were hiding in the valley.

4. When the prince passed by, they suddenly rushed out.

5. The prince fought bravely, but he was outnumbered.

6. At last, the prince was captured and locked in Maleficent’s tall tower.

7. Maleficent sneered, “You will never see her again!”

8. The prince struggled in anger, but the chains held him tight.

9. Maleficent came closer and said, “Oh, Prince Phillip, why are you so sad?”

10. “You have such a glorious future. You will make the legends of heroes come true.”

11. “Look, in King Stefan’s castle, in the tallest tower, Princess Aurora is dreaming.”

12. “But fate is strange. In the form of a peasant girl, she won the love of a prince.”

13. “She is truly lovely—with golden hair like sunshine and lips as red as roses.”

14. “In her long sleep, she will hold on to one belief.”

15. “As the years fly by, Prince Phillip, you will remain faithful, with unwavering love.”

16. “A hundred years from now, the dungeon door will open.”

17. “The prince, freed at last, will ride his noble steed to her.”

18. “With all your courage you will ride to her, and your beloved will awaken with love’s first kiss.”

19. “Thus proving that true love can conquer all!”

20. The prince remained silent, but his eyes shone with determination.
