Once upon a time, in a land far far away, there lived a fair princess whom we know as the Sleeping Beauty. However, the story that we know is quite far from the actual truth.
The Princess was a self absorbed snotty girl.
To prevent anyone from waking the princess up, the witch had covered the whole area with thorny vines. The king and queen, though slightly distressed, eventually felt that life was better without the Princess and added warning signs to prevent anyone from disturbing her.
And thus, the witch unintentionally became a hero… and learned that she should do her research before kidnapping princesses, who people apparently didn’t care for....

Two hundred years have passed. Both the princess's siblings, an older brother and younger sister, have long married and are king and queen of different kingdoms, and more. The story of the sleeping princess has become a bit of myth now. The townsfolk who live by the thorny maze, however, are determined to keep anyone from going into the maze to attempt rescues. So far, they’ve only had to prevent the kids from going in there, but now….there’s bigger fry.
A prince has come to rescue the “beautiful damsel in dress” and he will not be deterred. In response, the townsfolk have hired the Band of Bums, a group rumored to be very strong. Unfortunately, that’s just a myth. The Band of Bums is actually a group of four misfits with useless skills and powers….
Will they be able to stop the Prince, or will the Princess finally be rescued from her slumber?
