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.

Eric looked around to see if anyone was around. Then he leaned over and said "we aren't your average bunch either. Tell me....how long have you been watching us. Depending on how long you've been watching depends on what I do about it.....whats your name?" Eric wanted to sound as scary as he could. He wasn't going to do anything about her watching them...he saw in his eyes a new recruit. A new person to help get things moving the way he wanted them to move.
James just stood there and watched as the girl with her green hair tripped and hung upside down. As Eric was speaking to her he walked up behind him and tried to make an aggressive face though he couldn't help but laugh at the girl hanging there. "I'm so sorry, Eric." he whispered, "just holler if you need me." After James spoke these words he walked to the back room and removed his mask,Laughing hysterically.
She stuck her tongue out at the laughing man in pure childish aggression, then she turned back to the trench coat man. "I dunno, I don't keep track of stuff like that." She thought back a moment, how many days had it been? "I think it's been like, three days, maybe four, I don't really know, I have a very eradic sleeping schedule, so it messes up my time factors." She paused to look up at her shoelace caught on the fire escape. "It's not like I saw anything, I was just curious. Ok, I saw everything, but you have no idea how boring it gets up here. For the big city not much big goes on."

" Oh I have an idea. We're giving this city a little bit more excitment to spice things up. Care to join in the fun?" Eric was smiling by this point. He thought for sure she was young and lost. The perfect person for this team.
She raised an eyebrow at the man's manic smile. She was swinging slowly on her spot, still upsidedown. She looked at the man as well as she could from her viewpoint, trying hard to read him. But as usual, her curiosity got the best of her. "What kind of fun?" she asked in a playful tone.

Eric's eyes got wide and he thought about what he was going to say. "well...if you go out on the street and see all those normal people....well it's the kind of fun where the normal people get to pay for the hell they give us "gifted individuals".....we make them see that we are not so weak and we wont stand by while they treat us like dogs".....Eric was turning red in the face....his anger was getting the best of him. He tried to calm himself and resume a straight face.
She looked at her shoelace again, and with one swift motion she swings up around the edge of the bar, turning at the same time. She lands facing the man, on top of the final level of the fire escape, looking down at him. "Sorry about that, the blood was kind of rushing to my head, and yours apparently, you know, you should try to be less creepy when you talk to people. I hope you're not like this with the other guy. But anyway, I'm getting really hyper just sitting here." She dangles her legs from the edge of the fire escape and begins to swing them back and forth. "You don't wanna see what happens when they don't let me move.
James walked back out, and noticed that he was standing in a cross manner. "Whats wrong?" James brought his hands into a defensive postion and tensed the rest of his body incase he needed to attack.
She shrugged, continuing to swing her legs off the fire escape. "I dunno, bad things can happen, that's all. It gets scary." She looked at the other man who had just come back out. "Done laughing now?"
She grinned, she was getting bored and she wanted to turn the tables a little bit. "Wanna see?" she asked the men mischievously. She stopped swinging her legs and pulled them up onto the fire escape. She sat there Indian style, just sitting, she had her hands rested on her knees and was breathing slowly. She refused to move, her body started to scream at her: she needed to move, but she stayed still. It started to hurt, she winced a little, her breathing quickened in pain. Then she let it go, she never understood how it left her, but the immense amount of energy just sort of, burst forth. All the windows in the abandoned alley shattered. She sat there panting, surveying her work, then grinned. "Oh yeah, that was totally wicked."

Eric jumped back in surprise and looked around to see what had happend? "I don't know exactly what just happend, but I like it." Eric said, as he looked at James with a twinkle in his eye. Eric was thinking about all that they could get done with her around and how easy things could get.
James just stood with his jaw open. "And I thought my power was impresive." Noticing the little twinkle in Eric's eye, James knew exactly what he was thinking. "I think we could make room for you... that is if you want to join us."
She shrugged, still catching her breath a little bit. "Do you have real food? and do you have a real bed? Because those are two things that I've wanted ever since I left home: real food to eat and a real bed to sleep on."

Eric smiled "yes we have both, and your welcome to them. The choice is yours". He began to walk inside hoping she would follow. Eric now thought "oh great what are we going to do about the windows."
