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.

She said yes and called him handsome?! Even though he could not believe that it happened he still felt the heat on his cheeks and ears. Any fire he could have created right then would not have been as hot as his face. She then smiled and bent over to pick up her things. Not sure if she had done that on purpose, but being the gentleman that he was, Nathan politely turned his head and looked away.
When she was done he grabbed all of her things that she had picked up and held them in one arm and covertly clasped her hand in his free hand, fingers interlocking. "I wouldn't be much of a gentlemen if I let you carry your things, now would I?" He explained.

Before they could go anywhere Nathan carefully took her things from her and cradled them in one arm. Then he slipped his hand to hers and clasped it. Ali really could help but find it all very sweet.
"Why thank you kind sir."
She said with a bit of a head nod.
Making their way through the mansion Ali felt so different having a boy holding hands with her and going to her room. She couldn't explain it but it felt very nice. The warmth between their hands was nice too.

Nathan could barely hold his elation all inside. It felt great to hold her hand, heck it felt great just to be with her. It all ended to soon when they arrived at her room. He made a mental note of where it was so he knew where to pick her up for their date Friday. "I'm going on a date Friday," he shouted inside his thoughts.
He heard the nervousness in her voice when they had reached her room and asked for her things. He thought that was odd, if anyone should be nervous it was him. He handed over her things to her and stood there, not sure what to say or do. He really wanted to try for another kiss, this time on the lips, but he felt he might be overstepping his bounderies.
Instead he said, "So, I'll knock on your door Friday. Does around 6 sound good?"

There was a sparkle in his eyes when she looked at Nathan. She could see his glee shining through even though he didn't say anything about it. Ali took her belongings and held them in her arms. There was some nervous tension until Seraph spoke.
"Yes. Six sounds fine to me. I'll be sure to be here waiting."
She lightly bit her lower lip briefly and took a step forward closer to Seraph and kissed him on the lips then stepped back.

Nathan thought he had been happy before. Then she had kissed him again. On the lips! Words could not begin to descibe how he felt now.
"Yeah, I'll see you Friday," was all he could manage to reply. He let her go inside her room then, watching her until the door shut behind her.
At that moment he could not contain himself any longer. He yelled at the top of his lungs. "I've got a date Friday!" He then started to run and cartwheel off into a roundoff back hand spring. He continued to performed several more back hand springs until his momentum played out. When he was done he bowed to the invisible audience and yelled once more, not caring who heard.
"I've got a date Friday,"
And with that he set off at a sprint for his room.

No sooner had Ali closed her door when she heard Nathan shout at the top of his lungs that he has a date. Ali smiled wide and placed her free hand over her mouth. She giggled softly as she leaned against the door. From the sounds of things Nathan was either jumping around or doing something to cause a commotion. Then a second shout came ringing out.
After she put her dance things away Ali plopped onto her stomach on her bed.
