WARNING: SPOILERS TO EQUESTRIA GIRLS RAINBOW ROCKS IN THIS FANFIC! Ye have been warned!
I knew this would happen, I just knew this would happen when I saw the movie. I blew the entire weekend writing my own personal response fic to the movie (and likely will the next couple of days well).
Here is how the Sirens, AKA the Dazzlings, Sonata Dusk, Adagio Dazzle, and Aria Blaze, fit into my weird and multi-gen PONY POV fanon-verse!
This is part one, that deals with their actions and origins from before they rampaged across Equestria, and also of course.
Origins of the Dazzlings, the sirens, in the Pony POV Verse. Where did these sirens come from, who were they? And why send them to another world? Get ready for plenty of surprises for these through and through monsters.
Many of the songs here and in the next part were commissions composed by Kendell2.
PLEASE check out the ton of recursive fanfics of this fanfiction series. A lot of heart went into them! They also answer a lot of unaswered questions. http://mlp-pony-pov-series.deviantart.com/ For heaven sake they rock! Kendell2 and Oracle Mask and Richforce and Ardashir and Jawmax and Persona22 and Dragon of Twilight and ItsFromPeople and all the rest!!! http://alexwarlorn.deviantart.com/journal/Pony-POV-Series-Fanworks-fanmedia-By-Category-332817406

Happy Anniversary, Series "Pony POV!"
Oh my goodness, now you're turning three!

Straight to the end, and beyond, there I will be!
Characters from canon, and from fanon, galore!
My, but this series I assuredly, truly adore!
Though it's rather lengthy, it's never been a bore!
As it's my favorite story, I'm looking forward to more!

Oh, they've been a group a long time. Two to three millennia in your chronology; over four millennia in mine. Yeah, I'm guessing we can't accurately term them "teenagers."
I was thinking myself that they were probably kin. That would explain a lot of the dynamic between them, and how they were able despite their squabbling to stay together for so long. As for the degree of kinship:
Another reason for this might be that their normal mode of sex might not be penetrative. Though all aquatic mammals as far as I know use penile penetration, many other aquatic vertebrates release sprays of eggs and fertilize them with sprays of sperm in the water. If the Seaponies incoprorate fish genes, they might actually be capable of this mode of reproduction.
But it's more likely that the perils of life in the sea just lead them to adopt a very close concept of their school such that all are seen as one big family. This might or might not be a group marriage; I do notice that they seem to know who their fathers are, so there are probably normal marriages or matings within the group.
By the standards of the Three Kinds, they'd probably be cousins. First or second, I'd guess.
Their culture seems the second most alien to human norms of the Pony Kinds (the most alien being those of the Flutterponies, becoming even stranger as Changelings). But then, they are in a very different environment. Sev's Kelpies -- also Seapony descendants -- are pretty strange (though Twilight meets a Kindred Spirit among them), and the G1 Seaponies themselves were weird by Pony standards.
No! Don't wish for that!!!
I like the way you're tying this into your larger history.
...There is no description here, at all. It's an explanation and your thought process.
And you use the wrong brackets everywhere. 
I'm sorry, but I will not check this one out.
5077996
Wait. I didn't edit the brackets? THANKS! It was early in the morning when I transferred this from deviatnart. And I considered calling them sirens a spoilers for people who chose not watch the previews. That's while the title is 'origins Dazzlings' instead of 'origin Sirens' like I originally wanted. All fixed now. Hope you're willing to give things a try now.
5078048 ...you just ignored half the comment I made, didn't you? I said there is no description of the story. Seriously.
It reads like this: SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT
"Guys, I like the characters and I wanted to write them in my verse"
"First part happens in Equestria"
"I lost the description and was too lazy to rewrite it"
SUPPORT THE SERIES, IT'S THREE YEARS ANNIVERSARY! YAY!
...It's unbelievably amateurish. Why would you even publish that?
5078120
I wasn't too lazy to rewrite, I DID REWRITE IT! What you are reading was the rewrite.
5078120
And I had to write a summary of the plot for the 'short description' field.
Here's an description: The whatevers, something something (verb). Ya, ya, past crap and other things about what the story is about.
Here's what a description is not suppose to be: GUYS CHECK THIS OUT. MY RETELLING OF THE (spoilers)IN ME OWN VERSE. WHOOPS FORGOT TO PUT SPOILERS BEFORE SAYING THAT. WHATEVER, THE MOVIE WAS DUMB ANYWAY.
Well, this is interesting, I'm just confused, there were 5 Dazzlings before during the G1 (Or 2) era, then came G3 when they merge and became Starsong Melody, then everything started to go to hell, what did the alicorns and draconequui destroying G3 split them apart and two died or something? I'm a touch confused.
Also:
That is pure evil genius. Not the first time the idea has been used, as is creatures who rely on hate and negativity being trapped in the ice of the Windigoes, keeping them alive yet trapping them forever until freed I mean, but still evil genius. I get the feeling from that comment about Hurricane and Platinum that Aria is going to be the Nappa of the group.

""I'm just confused, there were 5 Dazzlings before during the G1 (Or 2) era,"
After the My Little Pony Tales girls met the (now immortal) Paradise Ponies in the Age of Wonders (MLPTs era). http://www.fimfiction.net/story/95189/pony-pov-series-season-55-65-side-story-seven-dreams-nightmares
"then came G3 when they merge and became Starsong Melody,"
Yes.
" then everything started to go to hell, what did the alicorns and draconequui destroying G3"
Rather, they reverse the timeline, and alter as many G3 ponies as possible, so they'll be able to fit into the timeline once it catches up to their present.
"split them apart and two died or something? I'm a touch confused."
No.
The G3 timeline, and the timeline where the wish spell backfires are completely separate.
So Starsong was never 'split apart.' She sacrificed herself to save Pinkie Pie from being erased even though she had a free ticket so to speak into G4.

"I get the feeling from that comment about Hurricane and Platinum that Aria is going to be the Nappa of the group."
What makes you say that?
5080466
Right, but how did 2 of the Dazzling die? And how did they mutate? As for Aria being the Nappa, she seems pretty strong, and that comment about Hurricane and Platinum reminds me of Nappa from TFS for whatever reason. Though I doubt she'll confuse a raging Twilight for a Rapidash since as far as I know, pokemon doesn't exist in the MLP world. I could be wrong though.

"Right, but how did 2 of the Dazzling die?"
When the seven spell castles exploded instead of remaking the world into G3, it was with the force of atomic bombs. Tempo Wave got skewered by a piece of a wooden beam in the blast. Oratorio Waltz was partially mutated into a mishmash that couldn't survive and thankfully died quickly.
"And how did they mutate?"
The spell blast of the seven castles released HUGE amount of magical energy, it made griffins, cows, and sheep, sapient, and brain-damaged several ponies, and mutated several living things.

Pokemon do not exist.

Gotcha.
Well, that was nice, and it explains how Sonata became like a more toned down version of Pinkie Pie. The Alicorn Amulet wrecked her mind. They created facsimiles of the Elements of Chaos, the Light World Mane 6 would be disgusted. And, we see a bit of Pony Merlin, I mean, Starswirl. Yeah. I totally meant Starswirl. For whatever reason the Dazzlings remind me of the Black Beauty Sisters from Mermaid Melody. Must be the awesome signing villains/sirens thing. I'd imagine with Equestrian magic being introduced into the human world, the Dazzlings are able to get a more satisfying meal. I'm curious though, how the
do their massive hairdos even hit under those tiny hoods? Do they use the same tech as the TARDIS and are bigger on the inside than the outside allowing them to hide their hair? Or simply because it's funny? Probably the latter.

Nice job tying in your series to the movie so quickly. They really did do something great with Rainbow Rocks, didn't they?
Tips for future evil overlords: phylacteries, one rings, horrorcruxes... never work on the long run: not matter how many precautions you take, the meddling heros will always find a way to break your Mcguffins.
5086440
Agreed.
5086440
Thank you.
5086491
That would require them to admit there's a possibility of failure. The Lord of the Ring, couldn't comprehend anyone WANTING to destroy the One Ring instead of trying to take it for themselves.
5086327
"Well, that was nice, and it explains how Sonata became like a more toned down version of Pinkie Pie. The Alicorn Amulet wrecked her mind."
Indeed. She isn't spiritually or physically related to Magic Star.
"They created facsimiles of the Elements of Chaos, the Light World Mane 6 would be disgusted."
You have no idea how right you are.
"And, we see a bit of Pony Merlin, I mean, Starswirl. Yeah. I totally meant Starswirl."
Or A Starswirl.
"For whatever reason the Dazzlings remind me of the Black Beauty Sisters from Mermaid Melody. Must be the awesome signing villains/sirens thing."
Didn't they get turned into angel fish at the end?
"I'd imagine with Equestrian magic being introduced into the human world, the Dazzlings are able to get a more satisfying meal."
And their gluttony comes full force to the surface once again.
"I'm curious though, how the do their massive hairdos even hit under those tiny hoods? Do they use the same tech as the TARDIS and are bigger on the inside than the outside allowing them to hide their hair? Or simply because it's funny? Probably the latter."
I imagine it's a basic rule of cartoon hair.
5087212
They did get turned into fish, I just like villain songs. A lot. Cartoon hair rules. Works for me.
How did they find the Alicorn Amulet in the first place?
Sonata got her wish ... (*shudder*)
Very effective, as you're showing both that Adagio is heartless -- and that she's not as heartless as she wants to be. This is much better than just having her be a two-dimensional villain. We know from your earlier segment that the Dazzlings were once sane and good creatures, driven mad and fallen to evil owing to their experiences.
Suggest "turned away, not looking back at Sonata, and said" with the commas, past tense and "and said" to define the clauses.

"How did they find the Alicorn Amulet in the first place?"
Sharks can smell blood in the water from miles away.
5088003

Depend on how you define 'her wish.'
5088003
Suggest "turned away, not looking back at Sonata, and said" with the commas, past tense and "and said" to define the clauses.
Okay, edited. But explain to me what you mean by 'clauses' here, and how this helps them be defined.

Well, they weren't evil at the start, good is debatable. And each other are about the only things they feel empathy towards anymore.
I put a lot of thought into that final battle.
5088373
Original form was
Adagio is doing three things in this sentence: she is becoming calm, she is turning away without looking back, and then saying something with a chuckle. These are all linked, which is why this can be a single sentence without being run-on, as opposed to say:
"Adagio did a happy little dance, got hungry and made herself an omelette, later watching Equestria's Funniest Home Videos" -- which would be run-on even though it's no longer because there's no real conceptual linkage between the three parts.
So the sentence has two major clauses, which have to be separated by appropriate conjunctions and/or punctuation marks; also since it all happens at around the same time the tenses have to agree.
If I say, putting each clause in its own color to illustrate:
Adagio became calm and turned away, not looking back at Sonata, saying with a chuckle ""Nothing important lost then."
each clause is complete and agrees with the other clauses. By "complete" I mean it would be easy to rewrite as three separate sentences ...
Adagio became calm. She turned away, not looking back at Sonata. "Nothing important lost then," she said with a chuckle.
... because each clause contains all the information needed to be its own sentence, which is the point of a clause -- it enables simple sentences to be joined into longer and more complex sentences.
Provided that the result is grammatically correct and logically clear, the question of whether one writes several short or one long sentence with several clauses is basically stylistic. One can write it either way.
5088447
I see. Thank you.
That was a good story. I think this might be the first story I've read that made me pity the Dazzlings. I wonder how things could have gone if they took the cure.

The mirror universe version of them are called the Muses, and have the exact same power and needs, but use them completely differently.
