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.

Upon the battlefield that was the camps, the various mutants that fought were either members of the camps or members of the resistance, all having their own self deluded reasons for the cause they were fighting for. However, In a sense all of this fighting could be self deluded, though not all people though this.
In a sense this was how many people thought, well except for some people. One of these people just happened to be outside of the camps, watching waiting in the underbrush for the hysteria to begin. The Figure watched very casually as the Resistance took out the groups of stalkers and broke into the camps , the mass escape already beginning and it stayed in the background, not moving an inch. It had arrived during the air drop and stayed perfectly hidden until the time was right.
Once the mass amount of people began flooding from the camp gates, wether it be inmates or fleeing guards, this was the figures cue to iniate its plan. Slowly, the figure sank down into the ground, disappearing completely in what it seemed to be a swirling black substance.
Within the warden’s office was where the figure reappeared but it was not shrouded by darkness any longer, the figure was the eldest Lupin sister, Sapphire. The Pale young woman could have been apart of this massive, escape with heroic triumphant of saving the innocent lives of thousands of mutants who didn’t deserve to be in these accursed camps in the first place. She could have actually helped the organization that she had just joined by helping with this planed.
‘I could help but quite frankly I don’t give a Fuck’ Sapphire Thought to herself as she walked towards the desk, slowly and deliberately eyeing the computer on it.
Sapphire, really did not care for anyone in these camps except for her sisters. The Dingo woman always tried to do what she believed was best for them, even if they did not know it yet, they would always be happy in the end they had to be. Besides, big sister always knows whats best for her baby sisters.
Saph glanced at the computer on the desk and then all at once a dark aura covered it, making it disappear. She then glanced at the various papers in the room and then one by one, they all disappeared. When her work was done, she heard a vague crackling on the earpiece she wore and she pressed one hand up against it, trying to get a better signal.
“Sapphire, my dear girl, thank you so much for sending me what I needed.” A deep voice told her crystal clearly.
“Thank you sir, so you got all you needed? I can send more if you like.” She responded obediently.
“No, No, I have all I need here, thank you.” The voice responded gratefully.
“I’m glad I could help sir.” “Oh and Sapphire?”
”Yes Sir?”
“Let’s not Mention any of this to anyone all right? Lets keep this our little secret.”
”As Always sir, I am forever and loyal to your words.”
”That’s a good girl.”
The link was cut off and Sapphire was just about ready to teleport out of the warden’s office to go find her sisters when she heard a rather large crackling noise, followed by a yell of pain. Sapphire could not help to be intrigued by this noise and went stealthily out into the hallways to see what it was. The Darkness user once again had to observe her surroundings before she went on a full on attack.
Sapphire watched as a guard ran full force at none other than Ruby, her baby sister, however just as Sapphire started to attack a bolt of Electricity erupted from Ruby’s unclasped fingertips hitting the guard with startling accuracy. The man froze, letting out only a strangled cry before collapsing, unmoving on the floor. The older girl then took time to notice that all around Ruby were bodies of men who seemed to be frozen, or at least, paralyzed by the electricity they had been shocked with. This made her carefully walk over towards Ruby, watching as the rather worn out looking fox girl spring into action again, not an action of attack but one of pure joy. Ruby ran full force at her older sister, leaping into Sapphire’s now open arms and hugged her tightly.
“SAPPHY! SAPPHY YOU”RE OKAY!” She exclaimed, hugging her older sister happily.
Sapphire was surprised by this sudden outburst of pure and sudden joy, but she went with it, holding Ruby gently, yet delicately, afraid to hurt some of her aggravated wounds. She felt tears dribble onto her shirt and looked down only to see Ruby, crying her little eyes out. The Dingo woman listened as Ruby managed to sob out a shortened story of what had been going on in these camps, which was basically almost as atrocious as what happened ot the girls in the labs. Almost, being the key word here, Sapphire still didn’t believe that this place could hold a candle to what Fusionist could do to them, but the mental scaring still happened and she was going to make sure that nothing else would happen to her sisters.
At that moment Sapphire’s sentries or as she liked to call them ‘darkness viewfinders’ that she had posted outside of this area began to go off and she saw what was running towards the part of the camps, 2 guards, seemingly fleeing from something. What they did not realize though is that they were coming right around the time where sweet revenge would take place.
Without alerting Ruby in any way, the darkness girl used a few darkness tendrils to take care of the boys outside, first by catching them, then by pinning them down by each of their limbs which just happened to be impaled by her lovely tendrils and then finally by throwing them so far away they would never find their way back. No blood was shed, all was absorbed by the darkness, but if anyone ever found the bodies of those two boys there would merely be holes in all of their limbs, but no blood coming from them, making it obvious that they would have died from blood loss.
“Ruby,” Sapphire stated, looking down at the young girl, trying her best to keep her emotions in check. “Where is Emerald?”
Ruby let out a tiny little sob, rubbing her eyes quickly. She wanted to tell her sister where Emerald was but then again she didn’t, not wanting to frighten Sapphire to much. However, Ruby then remembered the fact that Sapphire didn’t frighten very easily so she figured she might as well tell her anyways.
“Emmy…said she had to go do something and told me to find you,” Ruby paused for a moment, looking up at Sapphire’s emotionless face before continuing “She told me to tell you that she will be fine and that she wants us to get to safety and that she would find us when she was done.”
The dingo woman let out a hoarse growl, her mind twisting with bitter memories of what her sister was doing. She knew Emerald would go and get revenge on those who warmed her and her comrades. It was a stupid thing, in the young woman’s Opinion anyway, to kill in a frenzy like manner, but if that was her sisters wish, so be it. Sapphire only could nod as she held Ruby tightly, both sinking into the ground.
“I’m sure she knows what she is doing.” Sapphire told Ruby, reassuring her Frightened face.
Soon, both sisters teleported away, getting to someplace far away from the hellhole someplace loving, someplace….safe.
((Okay thats it for these two lupin sister, the last one will be in a seperate post comming soon))
Deathstar was about to head out and hunt for her fallen leader when she notice her brother Abyss charging up the hill after her.
"DS, I am sorry we couldn't get here sooner. I am glad to see you are alright, not that I doubted you would be." all of this he blurted out in a rush. " I am sorry we left on bad terms. I don't want to do that again." Abyss says.
"Abyss, as much as I want to believe you, I can't right now. I do applaud your apology, but only time can heal my wounds" Deathstar begins to back away from her fiery red brother and notices Nika darting toward the two.
"Do you two know each other?" Nika asks.
"He's an.......old friend of mine" she pauses in the middle of her reply correcting herself not wanting to give away hints of relations.
When she accepted a helping hand, Pit Bull was surprised. When she didn't let go, he was elated. Suddenly a large red fellow was in front of them, and Haddix dropped Death Star's hand, instinctively taking a defensive stance. But when it became clear that the two were siblings, he relaxed, keeping an eye out for danger.
When another mutant sped to them, seemingly a blur at first, Haddix flinched, but quickly relaxed again, seeing that these three all knew each other in some fashion or another. "Nice to see we're a tight knit group here," he said with a quick smile. His bare chest glistened with sweat and blood, and adrenaline was pumping through his system. The pit bull cracked his neck and looked over his shoulder, checking for guards. He took some time to scan the area in front of the infirmary. It was hard to make out any sort of sides there; the scene was in chaos. If this Tricity girl is important, she's probably in solitary, He thought. Running a hand over his close shaved head, he let his muscles relax, one by one, until he was fluid. His mind cleared. The Pit Bull was ready for anything, but expected nothing.
Hunter leapt into the camps in one leap, landing heavily. Flicking a hand to one side he swatted a human away, crushing into a wall with lethal force. Looking around he took a chance to survey the battle with his enhanced senses, taking in all the sights, sounds and smells.
Chaos. This was Chaos. Everywhere he looked there were sporadic fights between humans, mutants and Stalkers. There was only one vague constant. Some of the mutants were heading towards the convoy of APCs waiting outside. Time to bring a little order to the Chaos.
Leaping up atop a building Hunter, in his were-vampire form, bellowed out across the camp, "Mutants! Withdraw! Fall back to the vehicles!" His voice carried loud and clear across the camp. The signal was given, the retreat could begin.
(OOC: That's it, no more posting here, all posts should now be in Stage 3, the Retreat)
