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.

A black and read Camaro flew down the street. Followed by a silver Charger. Both had the omega symbol painted on the hoods. Geo drove the first car, Jinx sat in the seat next to him, Sizel and Claydoll in the back. The second car was driven by Black box with Big Bang in the seat next to him and Intel in the back. Geo had his normal consintrated/angry look on his face, one hand on the steering wheel and the other hanging out the windo with a cigrette in it. They were off to try and expand they're control territory and ultimatly that off the Order, and that ment going into human land. There was a bank on the edge of they're territory that would mark they're expansion if they were to make an apperance.
Jinx looked over at Geo and saw the look on his face, she placed her hand on his thigh and spoke. "You alright sweety?" She asked. Geo shrugged off her hand and nodded. "Yeah lets just get this done." He speed up and flew down the street. It was mid afternoon and the sun was just begining to set on the horizon. The bank came into view and the two cars pulled up on the curb. Six of the group hopped out and Intel jumped into the driving seat of the charger.
Geo stood up on the sidewalk and threw his cigrette on the ground. He looked around as his gang gathered around him. "Ok we're makin this quick. I'm making the initial brake in, the rest of you know your part." Geo removed his leather jacket and pants, leaving him in a t-shirt and a pair of gym shorts. He transformed to his full golem mode standing at ten feet. He looked around at his companions and in a deep gravely voice said, "Lets do this," The large rock man turned and slammed into the contrete wall shattering it like glass.
Today was patrol day for Nika. All she did was walk through different areas and keep and eye out for anything suspicious or handle conflicts. Most times it was just a day of walking. Other times she might have to help handle a scuffle or two. At either rate it was good excersize.
Today was turning out like most of the rest of her days. Nika had to talk to a teen aged boy to keep him from doing some damage to a local store. After that it was just nds and waves from some of the people who knew Nika patrolled their area from time to time. At one point or another they had spoken with the X-Man.
This was what made walking even more enjoyable. Until there was a very noticeable crashing sound heard not far away. Thanks to her cat ears she pin pointed the location and ran towards that direction.
When she rounded a corner she saw a group of people standing near a bank. She knew it was a bank from her patrols. She could see part of the wall was busted out.
People screamed as the ten foot rock golem walked into the bank room through a hole in the wall. Geo looked around the room and people seemed to be mostly huttled in one corner. He looked over his shoulder and yelled in his deep gravley golem voice, "Swizel your on holding." There was a white flash past Geo's left leg as the mutant whipped into the room, extending his arms and legs. His legs streched out around the huddled people and dragged the close together in a clump and held them tight, they had hostages. A side door to the bank blew open and Big Bang walked through the new hole in the wall behind the counters. He threw small pebbles causing minor explosions and pushing them back into a corner, and the chance of alarms being tripped was gone. Clay Doll walked over to a large blank wall with a spray paint can and drew a giant Omega symbol.
Just then there was a yell out on the street where Jinx and Black Box were stationed. Both looked in the direction to see what was coming. A woman with cat ears was running they're way, and Jinx yelled into the bank, "Geo! We have company!" Geo took a step further into the bank, "Then take care of it!" He yelled and stepped through the counters as though they were a paper bag and walked up to the safe.
A rather built black man and a hispanic looking female remained outside. They taking the roll of the lookouts. They did that part of the job as the female yelled into the bank. Did she just say Geo's name? It had been a long time since she heard that name. In fact he participated in the X-Men tryouts many years ago. Had he turned into a common thug?
Nika used her comm unit before getting too close.
"If anybody's listenting I might need some help. Track my signal and assist."
Now, first things first. She had to deal with the pair outside and no telling how many other than Geo were inside. Nika directed herself to the pair first.
"You should stop what you're doing and leave now. Other people need that money to survive."
Geo's massive arms slammed into the safe's face, leaving large dents. Swizel and Big Bang were keeping the people under control making sure noone moved while Clay doll dug through the registers stuffing money into a messenger bag. Jinx looked over at Black Box who had a menacing stare focused on the on coming mutant.
Jinx looked around her surroundings looking for a way she could effect the situation, she noticed a number of cars sitting of the street a few gas gadges on the side of a building, and finally a large billboard sitting on top of the building, viewable from the highway. Jinx shot her hand up and a purple wave shot at the billboard. This was going to go bad either way she just hoped it would go bad in her favor.
Black Box grabbed hold of Jinx and pushed her to the ground and huttled over her summoning darkmatter from a small rip in space and time and formed the heavy armor over his body. There was a loud snap as the sign's safty cables snapped and a groan before it began to fall to the street below.
Geo delivered one more punch to the safe and the door caved in. He pulled off the door and threw it to the side revealing a room full of bills and safety deposit boxes. He turned to the street to see the sign crash down.
Jinx had her eyes clenched shut and when she finally dare opened them she saw the black knight standing over her and the billboard on the ground around them. She looked around to see if they're newly come 'friend' had survived.

Sam got that feeling as he walked out of prison for the third time this week, he didn’t know why but for some reason he just felt like he was leaving something behind again, could it have been part of his own loner self? More likely it was the feeling of happiness when he talked to his old cellmate Kevin. Sam didn’t know what it was about the old man but he always knew how to cheer Sam up regardless of the situation and ever since Sam got out it seemed like cheering up was always needed. Sam was about to head home when his COM link went off.
"If anybody's listenting I might need some help. Track my signal and assist."
“Nika” muttered Sam clicked the COM link and took off; the tracer was at a bank one that was his bank… Sam grinned as he thought of a good opening line, “to think I came in to make a deposit….” Muttered Sam as he iced his body form head to toe and took off forming his ice slide under his feet as he booked it to the location.
Heavy impact sounds could be heard from inside the bank. Maybe a large hammer or something. Nika couldn't be very sure what was causing the noise. She was sure that whatever it was wasn't a good thing.
Refocusing on the two outside she noticed the other female looking around. The male wasn't making a move so he must've been protecting the woman. Hmm...that's interesting Nika thought to herself.
She didn't have time to say anything more when her cat ears caught a loud snap. Quickly looking upwards Nika's eyes widened as she saw the billboard falling. Reacting with pure instinct Nika dove backwards and rolled away hoping to escape from being bashed.
The giant sign crashed to the ground spreading dust into the air. It wasn't enough to be a hinderance though. More like an annoyance. Nika stood up in confusion, but then shrugged. She thought it was strange that they would crush themselves unless the female didn't know what she was doing.
"Well, that's two down and I didn't lay a finger on them."
Quickly Nika leapt onto the fallen sign and flipped into the bank just a few feet and stopped. Looking around she saw the people that were in the bank had been bound. Following the trail of what was holding them she saw a man. It was his legs that was keeping the people from moving. Continuing her survey she saw Geo by the safe and another man nearby.
"GEO! Leave here at once! These people are the ones who need that money."
Geo turned as he heard a familiar voice coming from the smashed wall in the front of the bank. There stood a woman he hadn't seen in years, someone he never thought he would see again. He had trouble remembering her name, "You just made a huge mistake X'y, I've changed since i last saw you." He said, in the gravely voice. Swizel's left arm losened and snaked across the ground towards the new comer's leg.
Outside Jinx had crawled out from under Black Box and was now standing on top of the sign. In the distance she could hear sirens. Black Box had just barely been able to stand straight. Jinx ran inside and yelled out, "GEO! COPS!" Just as she screamed Swizel's hand shot out. Big Bang and Clay Doll both booked for the safe, duffle bags in hand.

Sam was already on his way as he sped over the cops waving at them as he passed. One of the three cop cars honked at him in a friendly hello, Sam smiled and waved back as he sped up. Sam’s standing with the police increased greatly since his release form prison. On several occasions he dropped of an injured cop to the hospital and help put out a fire or two. He was finally rebuilding his good name.
"GEO! COPS!"
Sam smiled as he got to the bank spotting the girl who he knew at first glance, as he landed near a large fallen sign, he noticed a group running to the for the safe, “Aww I show up and you guys are ready to leave? Some welcoming, Geo come on out here and give me a hug!” said Sam jokingly. Sam used his powers to get over Geo's buddies to land right next to Nika, "Sorry i am late i miss anything?"
The big rock man turned and Nika could see his face now. She had never seen Geo turn into a rock golem before. She did remember him do some minor things before but this was different.
“I’m not sure how it’s my mistake that you’ve turned into a common bank robber. That seems to be your own mistake.”
A sound caught the catgirl’s ears. A slithering sort of sound and it was nearing. The other female from out front yelled to Geo that the police were coming as she ran inside the building. That same instant whatever was moving towards Nika got too close for her comfort causing her to leap past Geo and land by the safe. She was now the only thing between Geo and his group and the money.
That’s when another surprise appearance occurred. Cold Steel slid down in the front of the building on his ice slide. He immediately began making silly comments followed by asking if he missed anything.
The cat girl flipped over Geo and into the safe, wedging herself between the Omega's and the money. Swizel released the hostages and stepped forward towards where Geo was. Jinx stopped inside the building followed, slowly, by Black Box. Clay Doll and Big Bang stopped on either side of Geo facing Nika. Geo could feel the tension in the air as the stand off began. He could see Sam clearly in the distance, Nika behind him. He adressed both, "Heh, you think this is a simple bank robbery, petty thiefs, you think thats what we are. You have no idea what we are." Geo stomped his foot and a rock wall shot up in the entrance of the bank where Geo had broken in, and on either side of the street, blocking the police from interupting the fight soon to be.
Jinx quickly glanced around the room to see anything she could control. Fire alarms, no that would trigger the sprinklers and weaken Geo, she would have no effect with her powers here.
With herself in a position that she could now see all of Geo's little band Nika glanced to see Cold Steel's position as well. Everyone situated themselves in an attempt to find a way to best use their powers. Nika tensed up as she felt her adrenaline fire into her blood. Her senses sharpened and everything slowed down.
"You're wrong Geo! I do know what you are. You and your group are a menace that needs to be quelled."

"Heh, you think this is a simple bank robbery, petty thiefs, you think thats what we are. You have no idea what we are."
Sam smiled and nodded as he thought Geo was going to start to monologue about he was more than just a thief, Sam rolled his eyes with a laugh, “Yeah yeah we know what you are, your Geo and rockets!” Sam cracked a smile as he looked around the inside of the bank analyzing his surroundings Sam’s eyes caught the fire alarm but kept going a bit, he needed something a little better to use.
"You're wrong Geo! I do know what you are. You and your group are a menace that needs to be quelled."
Sam nodded and childishly he said, “yeah!” he the looked back at Nika and asked, “What the hell does quelled mean?” he smiled knowing full well what it meant, but as of late he had fun teasing Nika.
Sam looked back to Geo and smiled, “Look man no reason to fight right? Why don’t we talk about this?”
(OOC: Geo feel free to have yourself or any of the Omegas to take a swing at CS)
Nika's speaking just fueled Geo's rage. He snapped around towards the safe and ducked in so that his giant rock head was level with her's. "We're the menace? They're the menace!" He said throwing a giant arm towards the group in the corner. "They're the ones that have made our kinds life a living hell and you damn well know it!" He slammed his giant fist into the wall in anger and the entire building shook. A small chunk of the ceiling fell down and shattered into small pieces.
As soon as the rock hit the floor Jinx shot out a purple wave and the stone shattered into small daggers flying across the room like shrapnel. Big Bang and Clay Doll dove behind the counter to hide from the shrapnel, Black Box didn't budge as Jinx moved behing him and Swizel dove behind the hostages.
As soon as the shrapnel subsided Big Bang jumped over the counter and made a straight run for the hostages tearing off his left glove with his teeth and placing his hand near the head of one of the victims. "Move one inch and they all die." Big Bang said in a disturbingly calm voice. Clay Doll looked up over the counter and started emptying registers again. Black Box burst out into a manical laughter, "BOOM!" He yelled in a deep voice before laughing again.
Swizel shot out from behind the hostages like a rubber band and bounced of Geo's rock wall flying like a rubber missle towards Sam. "Talk is cheap X-ass!"
Nika was surprised when Geo stuck his big rock golem head in the safe with her. He then went on a rant about how life is hell and it was all the humans fault. Yeah, there were some bad ones but he had no right to punish the innocent.
"Your life might be hell because that's how you chose to live it Geo. You can't blame everyone for a few people's mistakes. My life isn't hell and I help these people. These humans know not all mutants are bad, but it's the bad ones who tarnish the whole spectrum. No! Get out of here and leave these people alone!"
Already being in her boosted state Nika unleashed a powerful right punch to the golem's nose area. She didn't think it would hurt Geo as this was just a creation of his but it hopefully got her point across not to mess with her.
