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.

OOC: I have no clue what type of restaurant this is soo lol. IC:Kitra stepped ahead of Jupiter and stepped through the doors. She blinked a few times as she looked around for Zelek. It was a softly lit restuarant and a somewhat dark interor. Kitra frowned slightly as she took a closer look around. She couldn't spot Zelek, perhaps he wasn't here yet? Maybe....
Kitra chuckled inwardly as Jupiter eyed the girl up and down. She shrugged, "A table for two in the back is fine." She had inwardly groaned when she had walked inside upon seeing the waiteresses, but had let it roll of her shoulders. Males would be males, and to Zelek's credit he didn't remember her really and she had disappeared for awhile. Kitra followed the waitress back and as they entered the back room she glanced around and her eyes landed on Zelek.....
Kitra blinked a few times and started moving towards Zelek, only to be stopped by the waitress. "Miss, you can't go there." Kitra looked at the woman's hand then at her then at her hand again. The waitress hastly removed her hand and backed off. Kitra shrugged and made her way to Zelek, upon reaching his table she spoke. "So, what's the point of coming here if you don't even look at those girls eh?" *Note, Kitra is wearing her hair down, a cream colored old fashioned longsleeved shirt, a forest green ankle long skirt and a bemused expression on her face. Also her knapsack is at her side, like always*
Kitra tapped her fingers on the table slightly as she waited for Zelek to answer...or at least respond. She was pretty sure Jupiter wasn't too far away either.
Kitra stared at him, just stared. Her look was simply, 'who the heck are you to be treating me like that.' "Right, like I'm going to be looking at them," she drawled. "I take it you still remember nothing about me or how you used to be one of the sweetist person I have ever met?" She sighed and looked directly at him, "Should I even be wasting mine or your time to try and get to know you as you are now?" Kitra was peeved now, if Hunter had to resurect him....why did he have to be so, so male???
Kitra grimaced, she had disappeared, it hadn't been on purpose mind but still. As Zelek schooched out of the seat with the offer to talk privately, she nodded. Kitra looked at Jupiter and gave him a half smile, gesturing to the seat as well. She straightened and and moved swiftly to the double doors, her hair flowing behind her, then disappeared behind them. In all honesty she wasn't sure what to expect or how things would go, but she'd figure it out as it went along. she hoped/
"Well, do you remember anything about your past life?" Kitra sighed inwardly, she got the feeling he really didn't care. She looked up at Zelek, wondering at his response and also curious as to why he was even listening......
Kitra blinked as Zelek pulled her down into a love seat next to him. She listened unhappily, she had already known that Zelek wasn't the Zelek she had known, but this clenched it. "Well I wouldn't want to draw you back to a place where you wouldn't want to be." Kitra smiled sadly and looked at him, "I don't know you as you are now and it's truely up to you if you want me to get to know you again."
She blinked, 'was Zelek's eyetooth pointy pointy? What the heck, he didn't have that prounonced of eyeteeth before he died. Did Hunter maybe? No he wouldn't have, at least, I don't think he would have. But what if he did? Oh dear god, I have no clue what to say or do right now.'*all in Kitra's head btw*
"Um, Zelek, odd question for you. Why are your eyeteeth as pointy as they are? They weren't that pointy before you died." Kitra spoke hesistantly and somewhat quietly, "Sorry if that's more infomartion then you want to devulge."
Kitra giggled at Zelek's impression of the big bad wolf. She gave Zelek a wry smile, "I wouldn't mind getting to know you good or bad. Part of the reason I guess I asked was because I know someone with just as pointy teeth." She shrugged, "Um, I guess I wouldn't mind a sandwhich and a cherry coke perhaps." Kitra smiled at Zelek, even though her thought were racing, 'I'm sure Hunter has something to do with this but how do I bring it up? Gah I don't know. Maybe I should leave it as is, but I really don't want to.' "Are you hungry at all? It looked like you really hadn't touched your sandwhich in the other room."
Kitra frowned slightly at Zelek's question. She spoke hestitantly, "I guess I ran from everything, the registration act, seeing you alive again, the labs just everything." Kitra shrugged, I'm not even sure where I was or what I was really doing. It was about a week ago when I finally got back to the state and the lab." Kitra looked up at Zelek again, as she had been staring at the ground for some reason. "In all honesty, who told you to say nothing about your teeth eh? I have a feeling I know who it is and when I get to the labs, well, I'll make an attempt to speak with him if he's around." She had said this rather blandly and about a minute passed of silenece then the waiteress walked in with her food and drink. "Thank you," Kitra said politely and the girl half scrambled to get out of the room. She looked at Zelek, slightly amused, "There's a reason she's doing that I'm sure but meh." Kitra sipped some of her cherry coke and took a few bites of her sandwhich, even more curious now as to what Zelek would say.
If Kitra's eyebrows could have disappeared they would have, since they flew upwards as soon as he mentioned the urge to kill people. 'Alright, I really didn't want to think it but....I think Hunter did do something, and there's one way to find out. Other then talking to Hunter that is.' "Well Zelek, I can definetly understand that. I wouldn't want to do that either." She had noted the slightly threatening tone Zelek had used and had frowned inwardly at it.
Kitra stood slowly, "I also happen to know who and what Hunter is, if that happens to mean anything to you." She stared at Zelek. then leaned forward and whispered right into his ear, "And I do believe you aren't as old as he is, but you are what he is." *Your Turn *
The first words that come to Kitra's mind were, 'Oh my gosh, he really has lost it.' A split second later is was, 'Oh Sh!t!' As Zelek grabbed her shoulders, Kitra managed to twist and bring her arm in the way of his fangs and grabbed him by his torso and let herself fall then roll backwards sending him on a trip towards one of the walls. She stood panting slightly and spoke, "Yes I was foolish for proveking you, however, if you can't even control a simple desire as that....you won't last long." In some respects she was taunting him now, but she also knew his weakness, as it was the same as Hunter's, at least she hoped it was anyway. Then she blinked in surprise as she felt warmth slid down her wrist and drip from her fingers, 'Uh oh.' was the only thing she could think of.
Kitra winced as Zelek met the wall, face first. She shrugged, "I know you're immortal but I was meaning for fighting." Kitra rolled her eyes, "No I won't slay you, even if you try to force me too." She glared at Zelek, "Are you really sure you want to fight?" In her hands a black, light wieght metal bo appeared in her hands.*Note if Kit wants to be evil....it could just as easily be wood* "Your move Mr. Fangs." She grinned evilly, not sure why but she was having a bit of fun.
Kitra grinned at his sugar comment and it quickly turned into a frown as he questioned if she was who she said she was. She snorted, "Says you who was dead and is alive again." She straightened as much as she could, "I don't want to pursue this fight unless it's for fun. But I'm not beyond defending myself either." Kitra pointed at his dagger, "nice dagger by the way. Is it really obsidan? If so, mind if I examine it? It's rather intruiging to say the least." Her eyes had lit up a bit at the interesting toy that Zelek had brought out.
Kitra didn't even wince as the dagger wizzed a good foot to the side of her face. She blinked and looked at Zelek somewhat amused, "You could have just handed it to me ya know." She turned slightly and pulled the obsidan dagger out of the wall and procedded to glean her eyes over it. About a split second later she was being pinned, "What the?!" Came the startled exclamation, then just to see how he would really react she leaned forward and kissed him fully on the lips.
And Kitra felt like she was going to swoon. He kissed her back and removed the bo from her limp hand and the dagger fell onto a nearby table. Her hands and his were now clasped and she leaned slightly forward deepening her kiss and the back part of her mind was vagualy wondering what was going on but the front part wasn't caring."
