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.

Acer awoke feeling as though he had just been hit by a truck, grogy and dazed he did'nt know where he was at. BOOM! Somehow that one eploisions brought him back to the chaotic cene unfolling outside around him. He quickly rushed to his feet, not even noticing the hand that was helping him up. A strange voice sturred him inside, causing him to to jump at the site of metal gear matrix. He quickly rasied his knife"who are you?" he said at the messure of thought put into the stranger's attire it was clear that he was not a gaurd, but still he could be fbi or cid or even a member of the geek squad, who knew, all were terrfiinlly evil. He did'nt trust new people right away, not like he used to anyways, Acer did though take note that the stranger did not make any threating moves towards him, he still did'nt lax abit though.BOOM another dephing explioson alerted Acer to what was happing around him. Still he did'nt take his eyes of this unblinking cold shell of a man in front of him, in thruth Acer felt that it was somehow an honer to still be standing against such a minicing foe.
"well , well, well if it isnt the gorilla, not so bad now are you?": Acer heard his own voice inside his head. At first he thought he was going mad, until he plunged into a cene of utter chaos, as he watched himself murder and cut down gaurd after gaurd, until he watch his own body fell.:
"what happen happened?" Acer tried to ask the man in front of him who he knew was still there, even though Acer could not see what he was wittesing now.
:Hades reversed the knife in his left hand so it was pointing downwards: Acer then just sat back watched
:Hades did a low sweep kick spinning with it with is right leg, pivoting so that he swept one guards legs out from under him. The guard fell back in time to meet the reversed combat knife in Hade’s left hand: Acer now rellized what had happened. He knew this man, no this mutant was here to free him, (but how did he see this?) he thought to himself, of coures
"I'm a muttant too" the gaurd pleaded trying to find mercy in the black heart of the kid:it was the blood of that mutant gaurd he slaughtered earlier, his last febel moments of life, if you wanna call what he had a life.
"I am sorry" he said to the stranger " my name is....well...lets save that for later," he thought maybe this guy saved him but, something about him made Acer feel as though, he were sitting in the room with death it self "I am sure that you came here to free us but I am sorry I am looking for someone, I wont leave with out them." He begain his departure but quickly stopped he replaced his blade back in his pocket, and for some unknown reason he asked" will you help me, please?" and for the first time since he mutaion starte he felt that he had finally found someone who would not try and kill him, not after seeing him kill. "Please?" he added one more time this time not through the eyes of the blood thirst murderer called Acer, but for the first time he looked through his own eyes, through the eyes of David Joshua Turnner

“Please?” Hades sighed, *Here we go* “Of course Acer, or should i call you David, I came with the resistance to rescue people out, but time is of essence so who and where?”
After hearing the reply he spoke into his mike “Hades calling in, sweeping in general direction of barracks in case re-enforcements are needed, DK if you wanna sweep the infirmary.”
Turning to Acer he motioned, “Come on!” as Hades broke into a jog.
Passing a mutant who had just dropped a guard, he saw one guard try to creep up on a mutant his visor identified as Pitbull and stab him with a tranq dart. Hades waited till he was in mid air then calmly swung his rifle round and shot the guard one in the left kneecap and the right wrist causing the guard to drop the dart.
“Carry on.” Said Hades as he passed. He then stopped. “Pitbull, my name is Hades, and this is Acer, I am here with the resistance to help get the mutants out of this hell hole, care to join, I could use an extra hand.”
The first thing he heard were the gunshots. Haddix immediately dropped to the ground and rolled out into a crouching stance. He saw the second guard clutching his wrist and writhing on the ground, followed immediately by the Mutant evidently named Hades' introduction. "Thanks," he said as he stood up. He walked over to the guard, and delivered two stern kicks to the man's rib cage, then caught him across the jaw with a third kick, incapacitating him.
He looked from Hades to Acer, "Well I guess I owe you guys, right?" He didn't bother wiping the blood from his bare upper body, just ran his palm over his shaved head and fell into rank. "There are probably still quite a few stragglers in the barracks. I'd start there," he offered.
After Hades said yes( Acer thinks) they dashed out of the room only to have Hades shoot down a gaurd that was trying to sneek up on a mutant, it happened so fast that before he knew it there was another mutant that join their ranks. Acer noted real soon that his earler display of raw power cost him dearlly. Now he did have the strenght need to keep with the other two.
( ooc: Acer's flaw, after using his powers for too long his body starts to reject it self, causeing him to black out, hades woke him to early so now he gonna move a liltle slugish. sorry guys: ic:)
Pretty soon he relized that if he could'nt keep up with them than they were surely gonna leave him behind, he refused to let that be, he forced himself to run fast to keep, all the while fighting to stay consious. his only motivation was that girl from cell. Acer thought that gaurds and exploisions were his only problem, he was wrong, and he found out how wrong to, as the ground under him gave a sicklly lurched that gave Acer all the warnning he needed to move out the way as a giant hand reached up and grabbed right where he was standing, at the noise the other two look back to see the comotion but it was they had time to do they watched a second metalic arm reach up and pull the boy's body down benethe the soil. "Stalker bot" Acer tried to scream but was muffled under earth, Acer faught fruitlessly for air but to no avail, he thought he was done for until the bot resuffaced for resones unknow to Acer all he knew was this was his time to strike, with one eplosive cry of rage the the bot let go. But not becaue of an Acer forcefield but because Acer destroyed his hand, along with half of the robot's body. Cut and ruised, gasping for breath Acer looked at the other two, "are you going to help me find the girl or are you just gonna stand there and wacth?" he said with a satisfied smirk.
ooc: for any mods out there(looks at historian)I reached my kill limit yes, but stalkers were never really alive were they now?

Prior to the outbreak, s they passed a building Hades held up a hand and said hold here for a second. Then as if it was the most natural thing in world to do, he simply phased into a wall (into Revenge) A few minutes later Hades jogged out the other end of the building, again through another wall. “Carry on.”
Hades barely had time to react as Acer was pulled under, he instinctively reached for his mike and was about to call DK when Acer resurfaced having seemingly destroyed half of a stalker, “Well you seem quite capable of taking care of yourself, come Pitbull give me a hand. So where exactly is your friend and who is she? What is her name? ” said Hades as he efficiently tapped a few pressure points around the wound to slow the bleeding and then took some gauze from his medical kit and bandaged up Acers hand. He then took one of his arms and placed it over his shoulder and helped him hobble onward.
Pit Bull propped the mutant named Acer's other shoulder up and helped him down the hall. "So what exactly did you do to that thing?" he asked Acer. He wasn't sure at all what these mutants' powers were, but from what he'd seen in the camps, almost everyone's mutations were much more beneficial than his were. well, f**k it, he thought, not much I can do about that now, can I?
