What makes a victim and what makes a villain?

After their defeat at the Battle of the Bands, the Dazzlings retreat into self-confinement to lick their wounds whilst they reassess their entire strange and fated lives from their beginnings in Equestria, up to the present. However, learning how to cope with the world and each other—living an immortal life in a powerless body—might just be more than any of them can bear.

Lines are blurred in this dark, historical, novelesque sirens origin story of innocence lost, heartache, betrayal, hope, and of course, beautiful music.

(Part 1: LBS) After the Battle of the Bands, Aria realized that she still wanted to stay with the other two Sirens. If anyone were to ask her, she'd say it was "just cause". But the truth was she stayed for Sonata.

(Part 2: LCS) Aria and Sonata are happy together, finally ready to start their lives with one another. Time to see if their marriage can hold up to their anger, stupidity, and selfish, gold-digging landlord.

Nobody has seen the Sirens since the Battle of the Bands, and nearly everyone is fine with that. Months later, Sunset Shimmer feels her entire life is going better then it ever was since the Fall Formal. She has her best friends, the school no longer hates her, and it's summer vacation.

One night on her way back home from band practice, she finds the three powerless Sirens who are now homeless. Deciding to be a nice person, she takes them in, but the question becomes how long will they stay? And what will happen to them in the future?

It's the first day of Spring Break, so the Rainbooms and the Dazzlings decide where better to spend it then at the beach? While there, Sunset is asked by Adagio if she'd be willing to see something alone with her.

Why does this request both excite and terrify Sunset at the same time?

It had been a while since Twilight had visited her friends through the mirror. Almost 2 years, in fact.
With this in mind, once she's finally able to clear her schedule, she ventures into the other world, eager to meet her friends once again, especially Sunset Shimmer.
The only problem is, when she goes through, she finds herself thrust into the middle of an unexpected conflict, involving her friends' country being invaded by another.
Caught up in the unexpected, Twilight will have to do her best to help her friends through this ordeal, or else they just might perish.

After all, the skies have no mercy.

Sunset Shimmer finally had the guts to visit Equestria again. After having a quick chat with Twilight, they both decide to return to the human world together. Upon entering the portal, something goes wrong. They end up in an alternate human world where extreme street racing is the only way to make a name for oneself. The world is ruled by the Grand Champion, Torque, who will give any racer who defeats him rule over the world. Not surprisingly, everyone is racing for a chance to beat him. Twilight and Sunset Shimmer must find a way to gather their scattered friends and find out what the heck is going on. The thing is, Twilight and Sunset need to earn their respect first.

(comments can suggest characters for racers and what they drive)
