Prologue
"Those brats always get in my way!" Maleficent screamed, throwing a fireball at nothing in particular.
"I have to come up with some way to make sure they won't mess everything up!" The green fairy paced around the room, her brow knitted in concentration.
"I've got it!" She turned to Chernabog, who had sat there quietly while she went into her rant.
"I don't know why I haven't thought of it before! It's genius!"
Chernabog, quickly getting annoyed, said "What is it already?! We don't have all day!"
Maleficent, too proud of herself to get angry with him, turned toward Chernabog with an evil smirk on her ugly face.
"We make them forget who they are."
"That's a great idea, Maleficent, but you've already tried that."
"Yes, I have, haven't I? And it worked?"
"For awhile, yes, but after a couple of days, the children figured it out."
"That's fine, a couple of days is all I need. By the time the spell breaks, the police will have arrested them, and they won't be able to get out of jail!" she laughed maniacally.
"I don't think I'm following..."Chernabog said, confused.
"Ugh! Must I explain everything to you, you stupid brute! Fine, I'm going to make those nauseating kids think they're thieves. I'll change their names, their backgrounds, they won't know what hit them!"
"I'm impressed, Maleficent, you've never come up with a plan this devious before. But why exactly are we doing this? As far as I'm concerned, there isn't anything we must do that involves the keepers."
"Don't you get it? If we get them out of the way now, we won't have to worry about them when there is something we must do! Why are you my second in command?! You're no smarter than Smee!"
Maleficent turned her back to Chernabog, telling him to leave. As soon as he was gone, she rubbed her hands together, saying,
"Have fun in jail, children."
