Staying Awake
Aurora/Alice
Prologue
Alice: Excuse me, Princess.
Aurora: Please, call me Aurora. It’s just how i prefer it.
Alice: But you haven’t by any chance seen the White Rabbit hop by. Did you? Aurora?
Aurora: (snoring softly)
Alice: Oh dear. She just fell asleep. I guess that’s she is called Sleeping Beauty. Best not to disturb.
Episode 1: An Evening Stroll
Aurora: Ah. There is nothing quite like a stroll around the city after a lovely day.
1: Aurora (Briar Rose to some) was enjoying a nice evening stroll before returning to her cottage for the night.
2: She listened the sounds of the city as the night approaches.
3: She sees the sidewalk glow a soft orange as the sun sets on the city.
4: Aurora hums to herself as she makes her way home.
5: She bumps into Alice, who was just leaving the police station.
Aurora: Oh. Hello Alice. How are you this evening?
Alice: Not so good i’m afraid.
Aurora: Why? What ever is the matter?
Episode 2: The All-Nighter
1: Alice told Aurora that she was assigned to go into the night patrol that lasts till morning.
2: Alice has been assigned this shift a few time before
3: And each time, she had fallen asleep on the job.
4: Alice is worried that it will happen again.
5: Aurora gets an idea
Aurora: Why don’t i join you and help you stay awake.
Alice: You? But surely your aunts will be worried about you.
Aurora: Oh. I’m sure they won’t mind. After all, it is for a good cause.
Alice: I suppose so, besides it would be nice to have someone to talk to instead of myself.
Episode 3: Rock-a-Bye Kitty
1: After informing Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather about where she is going, Aurora meets Alice in the park.
2: Alice inform Aurora that creeps don’t show up so frequently this late at night.
3: So it’s more of a midnight stroll rather than a patrol.
4: As they began walking around the park, the Cheshire Cat spies on them from a nearby tree.
5: A mischievous grin (well more mischievous than his regular grin) creeps across his face.
Cheshire Cat: Well, it looks like Alice is giving a night patrol another try eh? And she has help this time. Well, will just see about that. (Chuckles) This is going to be fun. (Vanishes)
Episode 4: Soothing Harmonies
1: Hours pass and yet it won’t be for a long time till sunrise.
2: The Cheshire Cat saw the perfect opputunity to test Aurora and Alice’s willpower by turning on some soothing music guaranteed to make anyone fall asleep.
3: As the music plays, Aurora and Alice exchange yawns as sleep began to over take them.
4: Before long, Aurora nodded off where she stood.
5: Alice shooks off the weariness and gave Aurora a little shake to wake her up.
Aurora: That was close.
Alice: Too close. Perhaps maybe we should go somewhere less relaxing to keep ourselves awake.
Aurora: Good idea. And i believe i know just place.
Episode 5: Name Your Poison
1: Aurora and Alice head to the busiest part of town confident it will keep them awake.
2: They went into the cafe for some tea.
3: When no one was looking, the Cheshire Cat took the sugar for their tea and mix in some grounded Deadly Night Shade (everyone knows that Deadly Night Shade is a powerful sleep agent)
4: The tea was served and the girls took a sip from their cups.
5: Then, a squad of creeps showed up.
Aurora: Uh Oh. Some much for a midnight stroll.
Episode 6: You are Getting Sleepy
1: Without the fairies, Aurora was a sitting duck.
2: Alice ate one of her biscuits to grow enormous and stomps the creeps into the ground
3: Suddenly, Alice’s head began to swim and her eyelids grew heavy.
4: The deadly night shade was beginning to take effect.
5: A groggy Alice chased after the remaining creeps.
Aurora: Alice wait for me. Wait for… oh.
Sally: Aurora is everything all right
Aurora: I feel so strange… so sleepy.
Sally: (examining her tea) Someone has slipped in Deadly Night Shade in your tea. But it’s only a little dose so you will only asleep for a little while.
Aurora: Oh no. I better find Alice before it’s (yawns) too late.
Episode 7: Snoring Beauty
1: Aurora tried with all her might to keep awake as the deadly night shade starts to take effect.
2: As soon as she started to sucumb to sleep. A loud rumble woke her up.

Cheshire Cat: I say, how are you two getting on?
Aurora: (yawns) What are talking about? Wait a minute, you been trying make us fall asleep all night haven’t you?
Cheshire Cat: Whom did you expect? Maleficent perchance? Beside i haft to admit, i am rather impressed on how your bearing it so far. I hope you two are ready for the real test. If not, too bad. (Vanishes)
Aurora: Real test?
Alice: Aurora, look!

Alice: We did it! We made it through the whole night.
Aurora: Yes we have. Now i feel as though a nice, long nap is in order. Wouldn’t you agree Alice?
Alice: Yes. Yes…I…Do. (flops onto one of beds and falls fast asleep, snoring softly)
Aurora: (giggles) I coudn’t have said better myself. (Lays down and closes her eyes)
