My Maleficent theory

Maleficent and Stefan were friends, Stefan was a prince, and Maleficent was a young fairy godmother who likes to sneak in to the castle with her small body and wings. (Much like Tinkerbell visiting Regina in her castle). Maleficent fell in love with Stefan one day, and thinks Stefan reciprocated her feelings, but in truth, does not. Stefan only see Maleficent as a friend. Stefan then met Princess Leah,and they fell in love for each other. Maleficent was jealous, and she cursed Leah with the sleeping curse, with the help of Rumpelstiltskin, using a spindle. Stefan found out Maleficent's doings and became mad at her, breaking their friendship and his trust. Luckily, Stefan could wake Leah with True Love's Kiss. Years later, Stefan and Leah had a baby daughter, named Aurora. As a revenge, Maleficent prophesized Aurora's death on her christening, angering Stefan more. Stefan trusted Aurora with three fairies, Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. But with Maleficent's status as a fairy godmother, Blue assigned Maleficent with Aurora as her charge. Maleficent is then caught up in between her duties and vengeance. Maleficent grew close to Aurora, as far as trying to reverse the prophecy, but with no luck, as Maleficent had said no power on earth can change it. In this season, we found out that fairies can prophesize things to happen, such as when Blue stated that Emma will be a saviour and will break the dark curse on the first season. Due to Maleficent prophesizing Aurora's sleeping curse, a servant who was also a witch puts a sleeping curse on a spindle, trying to test her sleeping curse spell, and puts it up in the highest tower of the castle, hoping that another servant or palace worker finds it and eventually fall into the sleeping curse. Maleficent admits to Aurora on prophesizing her death, which saddens Aurora and makes her mad at Maleficent. However, Aurora was returned to the palace a day soon, and she was the one to find the spinning wheel, and pricks her finger, and eventually fall into the sleeping curse. The servant witch was also punished by King Stefan. With Maleficent caught in the evil act, Blue takes her wings away and cast her out, leading to a fully evil Maleficent.
