The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

It was sunny summer day and on the Australian beach everybody were having fun. A few ladies were playing on beach volleyball. Near them two others were lying on the sun trying to get some complexion. Suddenly a boy screams and goes under water, followed by two ladies and a guy. People began to disappear in the water, like they were drag by something. - What is going on? Asked one life-guard while. After he is just on few steps from the water he sees the water has bloody red color and the bodies on the guys who disappear were in it. They all were brutally killed. - What is this? A shark? He says to himself when Sharky jumps out of the water. - Sort of! He says hitting the life-guard with his tail breaking his neck. - Have anyone seen my brother? He asks while the people were running and screaming. He obviously enjoyed himself.

Wizard had decided to take a little vacation. He had finally recieved his pilot's liscense, and wanted to celebrate, by flying himself to Australia. He had been lying in the sun, obviously sunbathing, when he heard the screaming. He stood up immediately, and began looking around for the problem. He'd been training himself a little bit with his powers, and hoped that if he needed to use them, he'd be ready. He then saw the horrid, dead, bloody bodies afloat in the pale blue, now reddened water. Then he looked further ashore, and saw the disturbance. It was Shark Face. Quickly, but stealthily, he ran toward the demented teen. "Sharky, what the hell are you doing!" he shouted at him. He knew he was bad and everything, but just killing people like that? It made Cole shake in pure hatred. He wasn't even intimidated by this ferocious looking creature.
- Bastard! He says as he looks at Wizard. HE runs toward him but instead of attacking him he jumps over him and lands on one police car. - Am I hunting people right now! What the hell a mutant is doing here? He asks while he was ripping off the car's roof and taking the cops in his hands. - If I fight ya I'll have to change my whole system because of ya! Today is people hunting day, tomorrow mutant! Is it that hard? If you mix people and humans the hunt from fun becomes boooring. He chokes the cops and threw their bodies on the ground. - But if ya really wanna die that's fine by me I can hunt mutants today... He turns to Wizard. From behind two police cars were coming but sharky hears them. He hits, the police car which he just ripped its roof, with his tail and sends it to the other two causing a big crash. - Bom! He says smiling watching who the three cars explode.
Skoliro had come to Austria just for fun. He had flown in yesterday night. This country was the best at night so he felt like sleeping through the day. But suddenly he was disturbed from his nap. Some sound like explosions. He open his eyes to find a boy, with some kind of tale, standing upside-down next to some fiery cars in the sky.Wait a second He flipped himself onto the branch he was hanging from and saw it all the right way. Skoliro flew over to the shark-boy and noticed another mutant.
Good day all, looks like your having some fun.
He felt the hot sun beating on his back, at least he could get a tan, if nothing happened.
Sharky looked at Skoliro then at Wizard and laughs. -What? Is that a meeting of the freaks or what? Why everybody suddenly started to thread me as a friend? What is wrong with ya people? Do you really think that I won’t hunt ya down tomorrow? He smiled and hits a girl which was running, with a jet of water coming from his mouth. - It’s human’s season today…. Tomorrow the mutant season is opened … If you be so kind you can come tomorrow and I can send ya to meet your maker then… Till then you are useless for me …. He lifts one of the cars a throws it in to one skyscraper. - That is if you don’t try to do something… Then you’ll get to see Him sooner!

Wizard laughed. This kid, although evil enough, could be no older than 16 or 17, and had the worst grammar and speech he had ever heard. His voice was so mixed up, it just made him sound ignorant, which caused Wizard to calm down a bit, because when he was around people like that, he thought himself better than the other. "You better stop this, right now, or I will singlehandedly stop you!" he shouted at the boy, not thinking about anything. He raised his and, as if to attack with his power, and thought of what to do. He could use his classic changing the air to a solid, and forcing it to fall on top of him. Or he could turn the pavement to a liquid, and make him stuck there. He'd have to wait and find out what this boy did first.
Sharky looked at the fellow. He wasn't much older than Sharky, or at least he looked like a kid just like Shark. He jumped back on one car. - I am not in to fighting mutants today. Come tomorrow and I'll deall with ya ..... He says hitting the car with his tail. - I told ya ... Not today ... He says as he looks if there was someone else he could kill.... - Ah ... the army will be here soon enough ... I have a time out.... He says and sits on the ground. - Would ya pass me that body over there it looks tasty. I wanna try it. Sharky licked his upper lip.

Wizard was absolutely disgusted. He did no such thing, and decided it was time to stop him. Taking the atoms of the air above the shark boy, he squeezed them tight, and made them come closer together. The closer they got, the more visable the air got, and the more solid. Finally, when it was completely solid, the air fell like a brick, towards Sharky's head.
- Nice trick... Sharky says barely talking. His eyes were wide open. - But ... I have tricks too... He jumps in the water as fast as he could. Wizard was a troblesome gut. Sharky would needed a lot of time to fight this guy. But then again ... He had nothing better to do.
Skoliro just watched as the to conversed not very exciting. He yawned. He watched as the boy jumped into the water. Smart kid, it was a good time to go for a swim. He followed him into the water. Skoliro was an extremely good swimmer, thanks to his wings. He used them as a penguin would, and dove under looking for the boy. He called to all the nocturnal fish within range he spread his wings to shield them from the light. He went up for a breath and came back down.
Sharky swimmed like .... a shark. He was really fast but unlike Skoliro he could breathe under water. He went a little deeper and then turned around... He just needed to put some fresh air in his lungs. He couldn't fought with this guy from long range, but he couldn't get close to him eighter... *I'll catch, the bat boy and then deal with the other one ... Just wait to get my hands on him when he gets under water again...* he thought to himself.
Skoliro stayed up at the top of the water for a while. One of the fish had sensed a shark near them. He told it to attack it with all its might. It was then when he realized that the fish wasn't just any fish, but a giant squid. Quickly he reached the squid,Scratch that. Bring him to the air. He felt the squid hesitate with his mind. Don't worry, the light won't hurt you.But I can help a little He spread his wings as far as he could shielding the light.
Sharky was swimming in the circle waiting to attack when something graped his leg. *What the ...* he thought to him self and turned around to see it was a giant squid! *Oh crap!* The squid throws him in the air. When Sharky is hurl up and while he was passing Skoliro he yelled. - I am gonna punish ya for this bastard!!! While he was "flying up" he thought *I am gonna kill him with my ...* he stops coz he feels he was now going down. - Oh come on! Sharky falls right in the squid's hug. - Shit! Ahhh!!!! They go under watter again.

((ooc-where did the water come from? I thought we'd left the beach??? Oh well...))
Wizard looked into the water. He hated to swim, especially in the ocean. The fish, and sharks, and other sea animals, plus there current? That wasn't his thing. He decided to try something new. Maybe he could turn the water solid? It might hurt the environment, though, he thought to himself. He was standing there, thinking of another move, wondering what he could do to stop this kid. He felt around with his power, and sensed the atoms of the water, until he found a large shape spreading the atoms of the water. Hoping it was Sharky, he solidified the water around him, and altered the weight of the solid, so it was able to float. A bubbling began at the surface of the water, and something surfaced.

Garius was walking along the beach with his usual look, watching those around him, with a slight sneer, he stopped where the water was lapping at the surface and satyed there watching the water, and various body life signs he could sort of see, hoever they were blurred by the waters movement, "IO can't tell if they are mutant or human, so I will just stand here and watch." He looked at the beach people that were killed, and the police were running around like crasy trying to calm the screaming humans.
The police got to where he was standing next and looked at him, Hey, lad can you turn around for a moment?" Garius smiled, and slowly turend around to face the police officers, there were two of them, one of them was very fat, his shirt was straining against the officers stomach. The other was medium build, he actually looked the part of being a police officer. He smiled at the them both, "What can I do for you officers?"
The officers took a step back, when they saw his different colored eyes, "your a mutant," Garius nodded, "yeah I am, but I am not like that shark type that just went on a rampage, I am more of a look than attack type."
He lowerad his arms, and looked at them, watching them change to form two pointed tips, next he looked into the police officers bodies, he could see the points for him to hit, he bent his legs slightly and attacked both in the neck at the same time. Both of the officers fell at the same time, his hands returned back to normal, and Garius etured his gaze back towards the ocean, where the life signs were still moving around.
