Imagine that you're one of the Misfits living at Obernewtyn, and you've just come across a story, one which in the Beforetime was known as a "fairytale".
Not all of it makes sense to you, but you like the ideas and themes behind the story, and so you decide to adapt it, like Angina and Miky did with Sleeping Beauty.
Your challenge is to retell the story, interpreting it using elements and understanding of the Misfits' present time (you can use some elements of the Beforetime that they know of, as well, if you wish).
It can be written as a story, song or poem.
