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.

You don't need to delete your posts, members who have posted, but we will continue the order AFTER Emerald, meaning it is now Axel Pike's turn. I ask again, PLEASE make your posts have some substanance since you will only be posting once until your turn after everyone else. Got it?? Here's the list again: Tricity, Emerald, Axel Pike, Fade, Shine, Deltoid, Jaguar, Wraith, and Raum. Stay in order, my dearies!! )

(Remember you may only post here if you are part of the mansion defense!!)
*Tricity woke up in the infirmary with a jolt, causing the electricity in the room to flicker. The DocProf came over and touched her forehead.* "Doc, how long have I been out?" doc: "A few days, child." "A FEW DAYS?!" *He simply nodded and checked her blood pressure along with placing his healing hands over her stomach to ensure the baby was alright.* doc: "Well, it seems like everything is alright once more, Delilah. YOU MUST take it easy, understood? Seriously, I may have to bind you to this bed if you don't SLOW DOWN!" *Tricity smiled slightly and nodded in compliance.* "As long as the occasion doesn't call for my actions, then I promise I'll be good." *She swung her legs out of the bed and noticed it was around 9:30 PM. The younger kids would need to be put to bed and she would definitely need to get back on track with the days she'd lost since spending them in the infirmary. Tricity hugged the feebled old man and then left the room. As she jogged down the stairs, the familiar faces of the residents made her smile. 'Thank God the house didn't burn down', she thought with sarcasm.* "ALL RIGHT GUYS!! You know what time it is!!" *Several of the people in the living room looked up at her with smiles to see she was ok, but many of the younger ones groaned because they knew it was time for bed.* "UP UP UP! Let's go!!" *She clapped her hands together and began picking up the toys and children from the floor, ushering them up the stairs to bed.*
(Participants, please post where your charrie is at the moment. It doesn't matter if he/she is in the living room or wherever and we're posting under the mansion grounds thread, it's fine. We'll be using this thread to have the battle.Keep to the order as well! Tricity, Emerald, Axel Pike, Fade, Shine, Deltoid, Jaguar, Wraith, and Raum. If a person does not post within a day, we will skip that person's turn and continue with the order. You may post in other places on the forum, but without interference and acknowledgment to this battle!)

john: "Hello?? Hello!? Tricity, can you hear me?!" *He released the button, but there was only static. Johnathon knew something was wrong, though he kept trying anyway. Someone had to pick up. They were only a few minutes away now.*
______________________________________
*Orion sat against the wall of the van, his head hanging down as he thought of all he missed. With all these new members on the team, he wasn't even sure how long he'd been gone for. He didn't recognize anyone in the van...except John. 'Well, he still looks the same...Maybe it hasn't been that long.' The kid he was fighting with said Tricity was alive. At least that was some comfort. He wondered whether the baby was alright...He wanted to scream for Johnathon to stop calling on the radio. Not hearing an answer from Tricity was only making it worse. Just as he picked up his head to yell at the kid, they entered the gates of the mansion, seeing the sentinels on the lawn. His heart flipped when he saw the glowing Tricity standing to face the monster robots along with some other brave mutants. Orion's face grew very dark. He would make sure all the sentinels would be dismantled before ever coming close to hitting the mansion.*

*Johnathon smiled in triumph and disbelief as the stone finally shattered, the reflections of shattered pieces of the red gem reflecting in his eyes. His head started spinning and he felt himself falling backward, but Kilala's strong grip held him up.* john: "We...we did it..." *Suddenly he did feel himself falling as Kilala pulled them both to the ground and around one of the pillars that decorated the entrance to the museum. He didn't quite understand why until the sounds of the shards from the gem whizzed passed and embedded themselves into anything in their paths. 'That's right. The fields she creates doesn't actually stop objects inside of them, only slows it down.' Johnathon covered his head as the explosions ensued until hearing Setsuna cry out in pain. He looked to her and saw she was grabbing her shoulder. Johnathon put his arm around Setsuna, keeping her low and grabbing a hold of her shoulder as well to hopefully slow whatever blood she was losing. After it was over, Setsuna signaled for everyone to head to the van. Johnathon kept turning his eyes toward the museum doors, hoping to see the rest of the X-Men come from the building.*
________________________________________________
*Orion took Whitmore by the throat once more and stared into the General's eyes. He took the sword and slowly rose it in the air, Whitmore's gaze watching in fear.* "Die now, coward." *Orion stabbed the man in the stomach, twisting the blade to the side so Whitmore would feel the worst of it. Blood soaked through the wound and dripped down on the floor as well as Orion's boots. Orion didn't take his gaze away from his enemy's face as he smiled at the pain Whitmore was in. He wanted to watch the man's life slip away so he could enjoy every moment of it passing. Suddenly the sound of an unfamiliar voice made Orion look toward the entryway of the museum where he saw a spanish looking young man and an unconscious form that he was shouldering. A woman's voice was telling them they needed to leave and he recognized the silver X-Men symbol on their clothing. They were new members Orion hadn't met along with the young man who he was just fighting moments ago, but was now fighting with against Whitmore. Orion also noticed the unconscious man was an X-Men, but recognized him from Whitmore's base. 'Must have been sent off to do a mission like some of the others,' Orion thought. He looked back over to the General who's life was now at an end after hearing his last gasp for air. Orion pulled the sword from his stomach and dropped him from the hold around his neck. After staring at Whitmore's dead body for a few moments in his own world, Orion heard the sounds of the sirens indicating they needed to leave a.s.a.p. He made his way for the front doors and spoke to Cassiel, but not exactly looking at him.* "Where's Tricity?"

*Johnathon saw Kilala running up the stairs, adding more of the field around him which was now wrapping the heat inside. He suddenly felt the stone shaking fiercly in his grip until finally he was unable to hold it anymore. He walked to the wall of the field and what seemed like slow motion, left the frosty colored field. He turned around and kept his hands inside to keep heating the area, Kilala helping to keep the field going. This was going to work...*
*Orion crossed the museum's floor and found Whitmore cowering behind a statue. He grabbed the man by the back of his collar and lifted him into the air, uppercutting him under the jaw. The General fell to the ground, cowering backwards and away from them.* "You stole my life you bastard!!" *Orion kicked Whitmore in the stomach. The General spit blood from his mouth, but smiled sickly at him.* whitmore: "You can kill me! It won't matter...we'll still have you in the end, Orion." *Orion kicked the General again, taking his sword from his back.* "Well, I'll feel a lot better knowing you're not around anymore."

*John didn't know what he should do and tried to not panic. He grasped the gem and figured he would try and destroy it as the Suna's shield was up. He wasn't sure if it would do anything, but it was worth a try.* "Kilala, but a shield around my entire body!" *Suna did what John was asking, but wasn't sure what his intentions were. Johnathon waited as the shield went all around his body and then began releasing the heat from his body. Normally anyone caught in the shield would be killed instantly as the heat inside was over 1000 degrees. The DocProf had told John not to go any higher, but he had to try to to get rid of this stone.* -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Orion grabbed Cassiel's throat and threw him into an information kiosk. He stood up once more, but there was a change in his face. He no longer wanted to kill Cassiel. It was all about going after Whitmore now. Whatever this kid was doing to him, his mind was becoming more clear. Orion turned his attention away from Mike and looked up the stairs at the man who had totured him for months on end. He shook his head a bit and then put his sword over his shoulder. Orion's rage filled inside him as he saw the other soldiers on the floor trying to take Daria away. He yelled in rage and smashed his fist into the ground, using the force of Chaos. The tiles broke under his fist and a crack in the floor zigzagged it's way up to the staircase. Everyone on the floor and stairs rattled, falling to the floor. Orion then used Order to try and clear his head and find the green stone that was implanted in his body, but it was no use. He couldn't concetrate properly and his body was becoming weak as he kept fighting Whitmore's orders. Orion gave up on using Order for now and went back to using Chaos. The black smoke began emitting from his hands, but his time it was so intense, his body was also smoking. The soldiers started backing away from him and parting as Orion went up the stairs toward Whitmore.* whitmore: "SHOOT HIM, DAMMI!" *The soldiers were hesitant though. They didn't want any part with Orion. They witnessed over the many months the intensity of his powers. Finely Whitmore grabbed one of the assault rifles from a soldier and tried to fire, but Orion swung his sword and easily disassembled the weapon.* "You die now, General." *Orion said, grabbing Whitmore by the collar and throwing him down to the first floor. The soldiers were unsure of what to do, so Orion helped make up their minds for them. He grabbed one of the soldiers and threw him into three others who were close by.* "GET OUT!!" *Many of the men began falling back, but others were still unsure of what to do. Orion walked down the stairs and over to where he had tossed his opponent. He put his hand out to Mike to help him up.* "Sorry, kid. I think I'm starting to realize what side I'm supposed to be on."

*Johnathon stumbled outside with the X-Men, his eyes bulging from the amount of soldiers who were approaching. The men were approaching the staircase and they needed to do something fast. His mutation would only be efficient if he was actually touching someone or in an enclosed space. Right now, he seemed to be their best bet. John quickly grabbed the stone from Wire and stood in front of the shield.* john: "Go! Help them!!" *He yelled to Wire, referring to helping the girls. Dominic seemed hesitant at first, but nodded, and released the strings from his fingertips.* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*For a split moment, Orion saw Tricity in his mind and a sudden flashback of his life with her; the cave, her room, watching movies on the couch, seeing her with Vortex, the destruction of the mansion, and the fight with Ire that nearly killed them both. Because of it, he lost his focus and the blast Cassiel had produced, knocked Orion to the floor. He went tumbling along the ground until crashing into a pillar.* "Tric...Tricity..." whitmore: "Dammit! Orion, KILL HIM NOW! He's the one who's taken everything from you, fool!" *The memory slipped away again and only Whitmore's voice echoed in his mind. Orion would do as told. He slammed the blade down into the floor, using it as leverage to stand. After cracking his neck and then his back, he pulled his sword up and went rushing at Mike. The chaos from his hands seeped around the blade in a snakelike fashion and gave the sword a black, glowing effect. He threw the sword down at Cassiel, the force of Chaos shook through the blade and at Cassiel.*

*Orion soared up into the air, flying toward the wall. His back hit a wall and he went falling toward the ground. He landed hard, cracking the tiles of the floor, and stood up from his kneeling position. He smirked sadistically as the unknown man came running for him. Orion balled up his fists as they heavily smoked, engulfing his hands.
Whitmore nodded to one of his soldiers and he nodded in return. The man took out Orion's blade and tossed it to him in order to counter Cassiel's attacks.
Orion grasped the hilt of the sword just as Mike had swung his staves at him. The weapons clashed as Orion held the attack. He glared down at the much smaller and younger teen with his glowing red eyes, making him look very demonic.* "You're no match for me, boy!" *Orion swung through the attack and knocked Cassiel back across the museum where he had first come from. After casually slinging the blade over his shoulder, the hulking man stalked slowly after Mike. Orion beckoned to his opponent to stand.* "Come on, kid. At least put up some type of offense." *He stopped some 20 feet away and stood in a defensive stance with his sword, waiting for Mike's next move.*

*Johnathon opened his eyes and saw he was lying on the sidewalk, under a tree. He saw the museum across the street and remembered how he managed to be in the situation he was in now. John shakily stood up and braced himself against the tree. It seemed Orion had broken the arm he once broke a long time ago saving his life. Though, these circumstances were different now... He began to jog back to the van they had rode in, but the two soldiers that were stationed with Orion were now coming after him, now seeing he was awake. Johnathon wasn't much of a combat type. His muation would have to do the trick for now. The first man raised his gun and ordered for Johnathon to get down on the ground. John put his hands up in a surrender, but released a powerful surge of heat from his palms at the two men. The steam rushed at the soldiers, causing their guns to melt to their gloves. They screamed in pain and began taking off their gear while running away. He smiled with a cocky triumph and continued his way to the van. He jumped through the backdoor and yanked the radio from inside to contact the mansion.* john: "HELLO?! HELLO!! TRICITY, ARE YOU THERE?? IS ANYONE AT THE SECURITY CENTER?! SOMEONE PICK UP!!"

*Orion stepped out of the van, but was not himself. He was the play thing of General Whitmore. It had been too long ago that his brain was stripped of any remembrance of his friends or the mansion. His real self was pushed far, far back from recovery. For now, he was just a robot.
Taking Johnathon in his grip and tightening for pleasure was nothing to him. He didn't remember the boy at all. Just another person in the way of his goal to get inside and do as the General wanted. When he entered the museum, his orders were given, and Orion would obey till death. He saw the Asian woman first and decided she would be his first target. His hands began to smoke a black color as chaos stirred in his body and began its release. He tried to swing, but the woman ducked from the hit. Orion methodically sized up the woman and saw she had some training, though, she would be no match for him. The katana she held didn't make him in the least worried.
Orion shot a blast of chaos at his first opponent. She wasn't expecting that. The woman shot across the room and fell into a display case where a vase fell on the floor along with the glass it was encased in. For now, she was unconscious. He turned around and looked up at the staircase, seeing Wire and Riruki. He looked back down on the first floor and saw Cassiel and Daria. He decided they would have to go before the two on the stairs. They seemed more dangerous and may decide to stupidly interfere.*

*A solider from inside one of the few vans parked in the surrounding area of the museum, received the General's request and confirmed understanding. He walked over to a semi-conscious hulk of a mutant who they had strapped down to a gurney from the facility till here. But after the request of bringing him inside the mansion, the mutant became fully awake and his eyes turned blood red, his hands smoking. The soldier moved to remove the several restraints on the mutant's body, but it was already too late. The mutant snapped the cuffs on his wrists, chest, ankles, and thighs, grabbing the throat of the soldier and throwing him through the back doors of the van. The other two soldiers quickly stepped out of the driver and passenger seat of the van, watching the mutant exit the vehicle and cross the street to the museum.*
*As Johnathon made it inside of the front doors of the museum, a sudden crash made him turn around. A familiar recognition washed over his face and he went running to the mutant.* john: "ORION! God, you're alive?!" *The young man stopped in his tracks and saw the other two soldiers coming from the van.* john: "ORION, look out!!" *The soldiers had fixed their guns on Johnathon, but it was unnecessary. Orion grabbed John around the throat and held him high in the air, his legs kicking wildly in the air.* john: "O...Orion...it's me, Johnathon..." *He choked out, but there was no recognition of the boy in Orion's eyes. Orion held on a few moments longer and slowly tightened his grip, as if toying with John. But before killing him and close to passing out, Orion tossed Johnathon across the street and he went rolling in the grass before a tree finally stopped him. Orion continued forward up the steps and kicked open the door to the museum, knocking if off its hinges.*
*Whitmore tapped his foot on the ground and waited impatiently for his trump card to enter the building. Suddenly, the sight of his experiment came into the hall and he smiled wickedly.* whitmore: "About time!" *The General sighed and looked at the red stone in his hand with triumph. He then spoke to Orion matter-of-factly, giving him a very simple command.* whitmore: "Kill them all."
