All of the Cierń’s aunts brought gifts for her. The first aunt brought her a bow. The second aunt brought baby clothes. Just as the third aunt was about to give her gift, the door burst open and the mean aunt walked in. “How could you not invite me to see my new niece! I have a present for her too! When she turns sixteen, I will give her an overdose in sleeping pills and she’ll die! And it’s all your fault for not letting me come!”
All the people in the room gasped. “Get her!” the dictator told his bodyguards, but she ran out of the room and got in her car before the body guards could get her.
“I haven’t given my gift yet,” the last aunt said, “I’ll give her a smaller dose of sleeping pills. She won’t die, but she’ll be asleep for a long time until a boy comes and kisses her.”
The dictator was very upset. But he came up with an idea to ban all sleeping pills from his country. This didn’t make the people of his country very happy with him, but hey, he was the dictator, he could do whatever he wanted. If you were caught with the sleeping pills, you could have a life sentence or even be executed. He also made a bunch of his people try to find the mean aunt. If anyone was found working with her, they would be given a death sentence. But the mean aunt had fled to Switzerland to wait for sixteen years. She wasn’t a stupid aunt and knew that her brother-in-law would be looking for her.
Finally, on the Cierń’s sixteenth birthday, she went to her party in her mansion. After a bunch of partying, she felt pretty tired. When she opened her door, there was an old lady sitting on her bed, petting a cat.
“Who are you?” she asked.
“I’m your aunt,” the mean aunt said.
“Then whey don’t I know you?” she asked.
“Because your daddy doesn’t like me and never let me see you. He can be horrible sometimes,” she said.
“Yeah, I know. He’s crazy protective with me. All my friends have 1 o’clock curfews, and mine is at ten! That’s crazy,” she said.
“Oh, yes. That father of yours is a bit nuts. It’s as if he doesn’t understand what it was like to be your age,” her aunt said.
“I know!” Cierń said.
“Well, I’m sorry if I was disturbing you. I just wanted to see you on your sixteenth birthday. I’ll be leaving you now,” the aunt said. She put the sleeping pills on Cierń’s nightstand.
Cierń, being exhausted, climbed into bed. She closed her eyes and waited until she could fall asleep. But after waiting a long time, she couldn’t fall asleep. She opened her eyes, and saw the pills on her nightstand. I wonder what those are she thought. She opened the bottle, and the pills fell out. She smelled one, wondering what it was. It smelled sweet. She popped it in her mouth, thinking it was a candy. This is good! she thought. She ate the rest of them. She quickly fell into a very deep sleep.
The third aunt came up to Cierń’s room, wondering where she was. She saw that Cierń was asleep and saw the empty bottle of pills next to her. She realized that Cierńhad been drugged. She pulled out her own sleeping pills and made everyone else in the house fall asleep too. Then she took out the rest of the
sleeping pills that she had been hoarding ever since the day that Cierń was born. She somehow managed to give all of her pills to everyone in the country.
After a few months of everyone being asleep in Poland, people around the world began to wonder what was going on. The dictator wasn’t
showing up for press conferences. No in Poland was showing up for anything. One day, a young boy from Germany named Hans went into
Poland to see what was happening in there. The third aunt, who was still awake, pointed Hans in the direction of the mansion. She told him that he had to go to the mountain and kiss the dictator’s daughter.
The mean aunt, knowing that the boy was coming, planted a bunch of thorns in front of the mansion so he couldn’t get in. When Hans saw all the thorns in front of the castle, he decided to try to go in and see if he could get in. He took out his switchblade and cut all the thorns in his path. The mean aunt saw this, and poured poison that only would kill humans in the cat’s tongue. She positioned the cat in front of the mansion to keep Hans from getting in.
Hans finally got to the front entrance. When he saw the cat, he pet it, and tried to push it out of the way so he could get inside. The cat licked Hans’s face and then stood in the way, not letting him in. “Yuck!” he said. He tried to push the cat out of the way again, but then the cat scratched him. Hans had anger problems, and the cat scratching him and licking him was making him mad. He stabbed the cat with his knife, and moved on.
When he got inside, he saw all the people downstairs that were asleep. He decided to go upstairs, where there were less people, and maybe he could take something. He opened Cierń’s door, and walked into the room. He had seen the dictator’s daughter on TV before, so he knew what she looked like. He went to her and kissed her. After waiting for about a minute, she started coughing. Then, she stopped coughing. He saw that she was no longer breathing and started to go blue. He felt her growing colder.
He checked her pulse, but there wasn’t any. He started to panic. The dictator would kill him for killing his daughter. He started to try to figure out a place to hide her. He threw her in the closet.
He licked his lips, feeling that they were chapped. Suddenly, he started coughing and couldn’t stop. He couldn’t breathe either. That’s just what happened to Cierń he thought and slowly sunk to the floor and died.
The end.Later that day, once the doctors allowed it, they invited all of the wife’s sisters to the hospital to see Cierń, except for one of them, who they didn’t want the baby to see because she was an mean, old lady who spent too much time with her cats. The other sister found out, and pet her cat saying, “They’ll be sorry they didn’t invite me to see that baby. I’ll show them!”
