[[spoiler:When they grew up, wars were waged on the Moors, and the sisters took arms against the humans by warding them off in magical but non-harmful ways. However, Ellie eventually sold her soul to get more power and finally decided to kill humans to show them the supremacy of fairies. Angie tried warning Stefan (who was maybe fighting there too) about her sister's plot, but he ended up betraying her much like in the movie. Horrified at the darkness of humanity but refusing to give in to what consumed her sister, Angie ran away.

Ellie and Angie (I'm nicknaming them after their respective actresses) were once [[TricksterTwins two trickster fairies]] who lived within the Moors and considered themselves its rightful rulers. Both of them were relatively sweet young things, but Ellie was often considered the clever one, coming up with all the funny pranks they played on people, while Angie would be the one to question whether Ellie's plans would work. Then one day, [[spoiler: they found Stefan, and Angie ended up befriending him and started spending more time around him. Ellie felt ignored by her sister, so she took time to learn some other forms of magic. In the interim, she became fascinated by the [[TheDarkArts Dark Arts]]. Angie, upon learning this, tried to warn her against it, but Ellie told her to mind her own business.]]

Long story short, [[spoiler:it was Ellie who ended up cursing Aurora, and Angie was so angry at Stefan that she didn't really care what Ellie did to him. However, Angie ended up finding Aurora and over time regretted that she didn't stop her sister, so she vowed to protect Aurora even though she couldn't change the curse. Ellie ultimately wanted to keep the sleeping death permanent to keep Aurora from possibly overthrowing her as Queen of the Moors, but Angie ended up teaming up (if only reluctantly) with the three fairies to stop her.]]
And why do we mistake them for the same person? Perhaps the people of the past never knew/forgot the fairies' true names, and over time stories evolved so that it was thought that there was only one "wicked" fairy in the Sleeping Beauty mythos, whom people ended up giving the single name of "Maleficent."

Stefan and Maleficent had a thing when they were younger. When Maleficent gave birth, Stefan stole the child away as to not have a royal bastard and to ensure that his infidelity never comes to light. Or something like that.

* Seem possible since the trailer suggests she and Aurora have a far friendlier relationship than in the animated film.

The alternative might be that Stefan is the one to kill her and Aurora's belief in Maleficent's goodness/grief at her death allows her to be reborn anew.
