To my wonderful reviewers: Thank you. I'm glad you think this is funny. I was afraid it wouldn't be. See, when I did "Search for the Edi Lorka" (shameless plug), I started with a hilarious movie - "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." This was harder to do - Sleeping Beauty isn't very funny to begin with, so I am so glad that you all like it. - MKR
Chapter 4: Maleficent Searches
Narrator: Many sad and lonely years passed by for King Albert and his people. But as the time for the princess' sixteenth birthday drew near, the entire kingdom began to rejoice. For everyone knew that as long as Maleficent's domain, the Forbidden Mountains, thundered with her wrath and frustration, her evil prophecy had not yet been fulfilled.

Maleficent: It's incredible, sixteen years and not a trace of her! She couldn't have vanished into thin air. Are you sure you searched everywhere?
1st servant: yeah, yeah, anywhere, we all ...
2nd servant: yeah, yeah!
Maleficent: But what about the town, the forests, the mountains?
1st servant: We searched mountains, forests, and houses, and let me see, in all the cradles.
Maleficent: Cradle?
1st servant: Yeah, yeah, every cradle.
Maleficent: [angry] Cradle? [to her pet raven] Did you hear that my pet? All these years, they've been looking for a baby! [laughing] oh, oh, ha, ha, ha ...
Servants: [join laughter] ha, ha, ha ...
Maleficent: [abruptly stops laughing] [angry] Fools! Idiots! Imbeciles! [drives her search patrol away] [alone with her pet again] Oh, they're hopeless. A disgrace to the forces of evil. I'm surrounded by idiots. [talking to the raven] My pet, you are my last hope. Circle far and wide, search for a maid of sixteen with hair of mahogany and lips red as the rose. Go, and do not fail me. [pet flies away]

AN: I apologize that this chapter is so short. This was the best place to stop. I have posted Chapter 5 as well.
