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.

He watched the kid and a slight smile cracked his face. He just shook his head lightly as he chuckled, "The meaning of life kid? The meaning of life is the moment in which you are living in at this very moment. Everything else... even two seconds quickly fades into the past. And most of the past ends up turning into a grey mist in which you remember the major things but no details. So live in the now and do what it is that you need to do in the now. That is the meaning of life."
He looked watched the kids reaction for just a moment before he continued on, "As for the show. Make it another I can eat anything show. No freak will stop you this time. I'll make sure of it."
He moved back to the street light and put his back against it to watch the kid as he sat up the show. Soon the kid had drawn a little crowed and he was watching each more carefully then he was the kid. Waiting to see one do something stupid.

¨... The best place to assemble a show and win a few coins...obviouly money to eat something diferent from a piece of metal...¨ Fausto say this a hour ago ...but the wheel of Fortune is always turning and always return to the same place ...the Wheel of Fortune is a tarot card ... Fausto^s dads sure know about it ...
¨here goes again¨he thought ...
¨Welcome ladies and gentlemen! let me introduce myself my name is fausto Martense, but you can call me the amazing and fabulous Iron Mouth¨he say aloud
¨this like a deja vu... jaja deja vu is a funny way to say that you are a stupid man saying and doing the sames things always...¨ he thought...
¨oh man , nobody is coming ... ¨
¨come ladies and gentlemen!! come here and see the miracle of evolution !!¨
¨ey the naked cowboy have more spectators ...¨ Fausto say sadly looking his foots...
¨i am the evolution , i am the x factor result . come here and see my great ability . i will you understand what is the real evolution !!!¨
people were approached a little curious about the assertion of being the evolution ...
¨Now that I have your attention,I can eat whatever you like. give me what you want and I will eat, from wood to metal, coins and banknotes let them for the end of the show ¨
a man approached him and said: I want to see your ability boy and gave him his umbrella ...
¨Is show time!!!¨
Fausto bitten the umbrella in the middle,their saliva melt the umbrella to cut it easily, the piece go off easily and after a few seconds was dissolved in his mouth.
¨tatan!! the problem isnt the shape , the problem is the taste ... that umbrella taste awfull . who is next?¨

He only watched the first thing that Fausto ate. It was interesting that he could eat through metal. It didn't appear as if it was necessarily his teeth that were destroying the objects but it appeared to be the saliva. That could come in handy if he could find something he could put the stuff into that it wouldnt burn through. That could be very useful indeed. He would have to ask him about later.
His eyes went back to scanning the crowed as they watched the boy eating things. A few people would stop look and just walk away disgusted. Surprisingly there were a good number of people standing there watching him with interest and not just staring at another mutant. A slight smile found his face but he forced it back as he made himself pay attention to what everyone was doing. He didn't want to lose his half the pay because he wasn't paying attention. Then a thought occured to him.
He walked over to Fausto and spoke up loudly, "I have something for you to eat boy." As he moved he rolled his sleeves up for a moment showing everyone there is nothing up them. He walked over to the kid and as his sleeves fell back down so did a feather from his wing. He reached behind the kids ear and pulled the feather seemingly out of his ear.
"Here you go. Eat this buddy. Not an amazing thing to eat... a human prolly could... but I just thought you might want to get the feathers out of your head."

¨I will double the bet! jeje obviously eat a feather is very simple but...better show them something better, I dont have interest in underestimate the intelligence of my audience.¨
fausto grab the feather, and put it to the height of his chest, and dropped a thread of saliva on the feather ... the result: the feather start to melt. like a piece of plastic in the microwave...
the people was amazed , they can believe what they saw...
a tear of saliva touch his hand skin ... ¨ahh!! shit ... sorry a little problem nothing to worrie about¨ Fausto draw off his hand quickly, the saliva leave his skin like burning ... the feather fall slowly to the ground half melted...

He watched the boy intently now. Like he thought. It was the boys saliva. If his mouth could contain it without disolving there must be something else that could too. He would really have to ask the kid later. This was an interesting show of power. Though why people gave away their powers so quickly he would never know. Or chose code names that gave them away. It was only asking for someone to come up with a few tricks to stop them already planned out. He just shook his head and walked back to the light he was under and put his back to it and kept watching the kid. He was drawing a pretty good sized crowed. With a crowd this size it was only a matter of time until someone came up and started trouble.
His eyes caught one man and he was sure it would be him. He just stood there and watched though. The man didnt show any outward sign of seeing what the boy was doing but he was standing there watching. Otieno just crossed his arms over his chest and waited. He would just have to wait and see what happened. If anyone attacked the boy though they would be sorely pressed to contain the hatred and anger that was always just under the surface of himself though.

one of the spectators wasnt paying attention to their abilities. not as he expected. at some point the man fast approaching and the grap Fausto^s T-shirt with both hands. ¨you like to show your powers boy? those going to be a good show to my boss, so you're a mutant i am going to sell you as a circus phenomeno.¨
¨oh man ... you have to learn to not disturb a star in a show... you wanna be my meal,right?¨
¨i hate the people like you , who think is right to take away a man from his family , who think that is right to murder ¨
¨look carefull , that is something you dont see every day!¨
Fausto spit in the eye to the man who grabbed his T-shirt, when the saliva struck the eye,it began to melt leaving a blind eye ,half melted like a burnt candle.The man started to insult Fausto but he doesnt released him. While the man was growling for pain Fausto grip one of the man's arm with both hands, and gave him a bite to the arm.the flesh and bones of the man was melting, he could see a a small rise of smoke coming out, the meat burn already and started to dissolve... finally a piece of flesh cut off... and it start to dissolve in Fausto mouth. Fausto let a hollow in the man arm . the wound dont bleed because saliva had suturing with the heat of acid.
¨taste good man , can i took another piece?¨ Fausto say with a little insanaty shinning in his eyes ...

He was gettin ready to move when fausto took charge and got the man. He just leaned back and watched the show. The kid did pretty good though if he didnt wanna shurt someone like he said earlier he was doing a shitty job of that. He pushed forward and grabed fausto around the shoulder.
"I thought you didn't want to do it like that. This is why you were to let me handle it. So you could watch what a man can do without his powers. If you want me to teach you then you wont use your powers when defending yourself."
He stood there staring at the two and then looked at someone the crowd, "Someone might wanna call an ambulance for this man. Keep in mind ladies in gentleman. When you decide to attack a mutant and you've seen him melting thigns with his saliva... it isn't a good idea to attack from the front like that. The man was a fool and the kid defended himself."
He kept ahold of the boy and bent down pickin up what little money was tossed on the ground while people watched the show. He dragged the boy down the street his face turning red, "If youd let me handle it noone would have said or done anything because theyd have thought i was a human. But no they seen ANOTHER mutant attacking a human. I have nothing wrong with killing humans as long as you arent being watched by a bloody crowd you idiot. Lets just get out of here and find somewhere that I can help you learn to fight."

¨i know what you are thinking,after all my telekinesis work well... before I said it didnt want to fight with my powers ... but this is different ... Such people do not have the right to be called human, my father was a human and it was incredible, always fighting to help others,he was an idealist who died protecting his dream of unity.that man isnt the same as my father!! that man is worst than trash!! that isnt human!!¨
after a few seconds quietly breathing agitated of anger,he say a little sad...
¨sorry Torq, i didnt want to cause trouble to you... but that kind of mens make me going berserk¨
¨a man like him kill my dad and mon...a man that see the mutants like a mistake , like funny toys ...The Bloody Eye kill my family only because they were defending the rights of mutants ... ¨ say very sadly trying to not cry and keep his voice normal...

Normally he might have said something ot the kid. Something not so nice. But standing there looking at the child he just shook his head. He placed a hand on the boys shoulder and spoke lightly.
"Just dont let your emotions get the best of you. Otherwise your going to end up dead. Yo wont do anything big and exciting with your life if your gone will you?"
He sighed lightly and just stood there looking at the child. A slight smile crossed across his face, "Say you like to talk. How about we walk for a little while and talk. I was watching you earlier and I was wondering... if that stuff burns yoru skin... hwo doesnt it burn your mouth... and is there anything at all you can't eat?"

¨you are soo nice with me Torq!!! thanks!! i am not feeling alone with you !!¨
Fausto seens a little cherfull but inside is hearth he know that Torq will dont leave him stay to much in his place, and that puts Fausto a little sad.
¨Dad told me the same thing but in a proverb ... is better to lost one minute in your life than lose your life in one minute...¨
Fausto look the sky a little nostalgic...
¨but returning with your question ...yes the acid in my saliva can melt my skin like anything else ...it seens to be that my lips and all my internal body is protected again the acid ... i make more experiment about the things i can melt and i find that metals resist a couple of seconds more than other things... the hardest the metal the long it last but i never find one metal or anything that i can eat .i think something indestructible is something perfect that cannot be destroy ...but this world is imperfect, there arent perfect things here soo i supoosed that i can eat all i want ¨

Torq walked around for a while looking at buildings. After a while he found one that he thought might be a good one to use. He made iron mouth follow him and they went to the roof. He looked around an dit was spacious enough and it was high enough that mos the other buildings couldnt see what they were doing up there. He smiled to himself and took off his jacket and then looked at Iron mouth.
"Were gonna start your lessons kid. I want you to attack me... but dont bite me... or spit at me. This is only training not the real deal. When you come at me I want you to do it how you might actually attack someone. Do not hold back on me. Just dont use your power. Alright? The rules are simple enough. No rules except no powers. Other then that... Lets do this."
He stood there just staring at the boy. He didn't appear to be in any kind of fighting stance. He had never takin lesons professionally but he hadnt needed to. He was confident in himself that he could handle most of what came his way. So he stoood there staring at the boy waiting for him to make a move.

¨oh man ... i think he was kidding ... i have to fight him? i am already dead jeje this training gonna hurt tomorrow ...¨
¨why we came here to train? he gonna throw me off of the building ... nah he is a good man but i cant make a mistake and end falling ...¨
¨mental strengh , i have to have mental strenght to fight ... come on brain ,put all your neurons to work!! i have to feel the impulse to react quickly ... can i have superstrengh or superspeed? perhaps those powers will wake up now ... ¨
¨ok is showtime !!¨ Fausto began to thoght at lighting speed ,as always happened whenever he closed his mouth...
Fausto just ran to him, trying to throw Torq to the ground with a tackle. Torq was just standing witouht any kind of fighting stance but despite that fact he dodge Fausto with a graceful move , like a dancing style. Fausto fall to the ground but quickly recover the balance and try to connect a slide kick to make him down... but he also dodge it giving a small jump.

The tackle he expected but the slide kick he did not. He barely moved out fo the way. Most people would have gotten up and tried to start swining. Atleast he could adept quickly tot he situation. He looked down at Fausto and had the boy stand.
He was standing next to a doorway back down into the building. He turned and ran at the door, and then jumped at the last minute. His feet hit the door and he pushed off. He through his feet upwards over his head as he flipped through the air. He landed with a light thud behind Fausto. Even as he landed he had started to move.
He dropped down his right foot shot forward moving forward to knock the feet out from under the kid. Most people would expect an attack like a punch when the started to turn so they would gaurd up high or maybe their mid section. Most didnt expect their feet to be swept away. WHich is exactly what he was attempting to do.
Even as he moved he called, "React boy. Move Faster. React faster. Let your instincts take ahold."

"React boy. Move Faster. React faster. Let your instincts take ahold."
¨i am trying , i am trying !!!¨ Fausto say while Torq connect a kick to his feets to knock him down . the kid start fall to the ground again but in the fall he can grapple the leg pants of Torq with one hand and with the other hand he try to connect a uppercut... Torq dodge it easily doing a few quick back steps. before he can stabilize , Fausto take impulse and jump with a punch to Torq chest taking advantage of the movement he did to dodge... the punch connect in the midle of Torq^s chest , letting him out of air ...
¨not bad for a rookie , right?¨ Fausto say with a smile and quite agitated
¨i cant bite i cant bite i cant bite ... what must i do next? bite bite bite ... no i cant bite i cant bite...oh man the only way to fight isnt bite ... but is the only for me ... , ¨Let your instincts take ahold¨ÿou have to be kidding ... my instincts say ¨BITE¨ i cant bite him i dont want to bite him ¨ Fausto fighting with himself in his mind ...
