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.

Stepping into the shop the first thing you see is a petite, short woman with Asian features. She is shown to wear a white dress shirt and black pants. ''Table for two.'' A guy could be heard stating this as he and a female are headed to a circular table with a black cloth over it neatly and red chairs. As the two take their seats, others come in and out. One great thing about the restaurant is the beautiful black tile floor and the smell of delicious food.
Looking through the menu's handed to them, the girl known as Deja seems to know exactly what she wants and closes her menu before looking at Streak. "This place is nice, isn't it? Been awhile since I've ate chinese?'' Deja smiled at Shawn as she looked over her menu once more.

Shawn followed Deja into the quaint little Chinese restaurant. He'd never been here and wanted to figure some way to chat with her some more. This seemed like the best way to do that after the night they met on the grounds. The small Chinese waitress quickly led the two to a small booth. The place was not very crowded but he did see people entering and leaving at a steady pace. The woman handed the two a set of menu's. It appeared to Shawn that Deja didn't even look at the menu as she set it down quickly and started their conversation.
"This place is nice, isn't it? Been awhile since I've ate chinese?''
"Ya. How'd you ever find this place? It seems like a little ma and pop shop." He said continuing to look over the menu. "And not to put to fine a point on it but it's probably been a while since you've had much of anything to eat." He said looking over the menu and giving her a smile. Shawn had decided what to eat, closed the menu, and waited for Deja to decide before the waitress came back to their table.
"Ya. How'd you ever find this place? It seems like a little ma and pop shop. And not to put to fine a point on it but it's probably been a while since you've had much of anything to eat."
Deja nodded in agreement as he made a very solid point about the food thing. The last thing Deja remembered eating was a salad and that sure doesn't last very long. It seemed as though she may not have been eating but when she woke up she hadn't gained or lost any weight. Streak seemed very nervous right now by the tone in his voice and it just made her smile. To be honest..she wasn't really great at talking to guys but did her best of not making a complete full out of herself.
"Well, to be honest I've never actually been here before. When I went inside the mansion to get ready, I searched through my laptop for the specific location and the menu. I looked at the rating for the place and reviews. I know it's weird, right?''
Deja gave him a smile as she noticed a waitress carry in her hand some food and it made her hunger grow even larger as she faced Shawn once more. "So..how was it like living in Texas?''

"Well, to be honest I've never actually been here before. When I went inside the mansion to get ready, I searched through my laptop for the specific location and the menu. I looked at the rating for the place and reviews. I know it's weird, right?''
"No. Not weird at all. It just means you wanted to have something planned instead of aimlessly wandering around." he replied to her. Shawn couldn't help but notice that Deja was smiling at him. He wasn't sure what the reason for it was but it didn't matter. Shawn couldn't help but smile as he watched Deja eye the food that was brought passed them. He gave a small chuckle at her before answering her question.
"So..how was it like living in Texas?''
"Well, I loved it. The people are much more friendly than they are here in New York. Maybe I should say they were more friendly, or at least my parents were more friendly, until they found out I was a mutant." He said the last a little bitterly. Changing his tone quickly he continued, "But before that I lived on a farm, which was awesome. I love the farm animals we ave there. It's just typical animals like horses, a few cows, and other animals. But other than the whole family hating me thing, the place is great."
When he finished the waitress came around. He ordered his meal and waited for her to order hers. After they had both ordered he asked her, "Why'd you leave Georgia?" he asked her.

I love the farm animals we ave there. It's just typical animals like horses, a few cows, and other animals. But other than the whole family hating me thing, the place is great."
Farm life seemed so relaxing and fun at the same time. The open air on her face, and, just the city life exiled. Atlanta was always busy and there seemed to be something going on everywhere you turned. The friendly aspect was true though. In Georgia everyone might have been busy but the southern hospitality was present.
'He had a great smile'
The Asian waitress made her way to the table and greeted them both with a smile and a nod. In her hands were a notepad and a black pen in which she would write down what they wanted to eat. Shawn ordered his food first and Deja just waited patiently. As the waitress asked Deja what she wanted, she kindly stated it.
"May I have a ice tea for a drink. For meal...sesame chicken and chicken fried rice.''
As the waitress went on to her duty a question was asked by Shawn. "Why'd you leave Georgia?" "I loved the city life there and just the atmosphere. Me and my mom had our struggles and disagreements but we loved each other. Eventually my powers hurt someone and I needed help, so..I came here.'' Deja continued to smile as her green eyes stared into Shawn's.

"I loved the city life there and just the atmosphere. Me and my mom had our struggles and disagreements but we loved each other. Eventually my powers hurt someone and I needed help, so..I came here.''
She stared into his eyes once she'd finished talking. He didn't mind it but he wondered why she would do that. Did she think this was a date? Wait...this is a date isn't it? It is, huh. That's not what I'd expected this to become a date but apparently that's what its turned into. He debated with himself for a while. He hadn't had expected it but it was a nice turn of events.
Shawn cleared his throat and said, "Why are you staring at me?" He said it a little playfully and with a smile. Honestly he didn't mind it. In fact it made him blush a little that she was staring at him like that.
This was a question that evvery guy probably wonders in his life. Why would a girl be staring at them, in a resturant. It defiantely isn't because you have food on your mouth. Streak was in two owrds..good looking. Most girls poabbly didn't tell him that but he was very attractive. Deja just shot him back a smirk as she lipped her glossed lips very sensually. "Why do you always glance at me and your cheeks flush that red color. Answer that question and you got your answer.'' Deja said this confidentially as she noticed there orders had arrived. Nodding to the waitress she went on, and, Deja took a sip from her sprite.

"Why do you always glance at me and your cheeks flush that red color. Answer that question and you got your answer.''
Shawn glanced back and saw her playing with her lips and blushed even more. He glanced away again. The waitress then arrived and gave them their food. Streak continued to think about her little question. He knew the answer but wasn't sure how to go about answering it. She was very cute. "Well." He began as he took a sip of his root beer as she took a sip of her Sprite. "It could be because you're so attractive. Or it could be because you're staring at me." He smiled again and, if at all possible, blushed some more.
Streak started eating his food. Like many other Chinese restaurants he'd been to in the past it was very good. And there were large portions. Something that was also just as good. His fried rice and chicken was delicious the way the two flavors complimented each other. Shawn looked back at Deja and actually managed not to blush this time. He wasn't sure what she was getting after or what she had planned but it was shaping up to be an interesting dinner for sure if not an interesting night.
"It could be because you're so attractive. Or it could be because you're staring at me."
Now this compliment made Deja's cheek turn rosy red as she began to eat her dinner. The taste was so sweet but still not too over done. She continued to enjoy the meal as well as her chicken fried rice which was just right and these cooks did a very good because they made a girl who has not ate in three months full in almost ten minutes. Food still lay on her tray as she takes another sip of her soda.
"That was good!'' She soon noticed the waitress after a couple of seconds and Deja asked her nicely for the check. "Now isn't this better than watching the mansion?'' Deja was defiantly glad he came with her here tonight because he was cute, sweet and just a breathe of fresh air.

"That was good!'' "Now isn't this better than watching the mansion?''
Shawn finished he food soon after Deja did. "It sure was." he said taking anther sip of his drink. The waitress then brought the check over and Shawn took out his wallet and payed for the meal. Once the waitress returned with his change he got up and motioned for Deja to follow him.
"Shall we?" he said before they left the restaurant. They walked outside and Shawn noticed it was getting a little cooler than when they'd walked into the restaurant. He saw this as a great opportunity, especially since their dinner seemed to have turned into a date, but he wasn't going to push his luck at the moment. "Well where to now Deja?" He asked wanting to continue their date a little longer before they returned to the mansion.
Deja smiled to Shawn as he paid their dinner and Shawn escorted them out of the restaurant. Walking outside she felt the chill and grabbed a hold of the shoulder of Shawn pulling herself closer to him. He was so warm and just great to be around.
"Well where to now Deja?"
Laying her head on his shoulders she began to decide what exactly she wanted to do now. There was so much going on in this city and all things sounded so much fun. Her eyes moved back and forth until she spotted an outdoor rink with people skating and she decided then. "Skating! Let's go ice skating.'' Deja then looked up at Shawn as she tugged him toward the rink.

As they walked outside Deja put her head on his shoulder. He hadn't expected her to make this move so soon. He was a little surprised but didn't stop her at all. Shawn even put his arm around her shoulder to keep her close. If he'd had a jacket he would have given it to her at that moment. He waited for her to answer. It seemed to take a while for her to decide. Not that it would have taken him any less time to decide on something to do if he'd been asked that question. As they passed an outdoor skating rink Deja decided.
"Skating! Let's go ice skating.''
Deja started to pull Shawn towards the ice skating rink before he could even answer her or give her his reaction. As he was pulled that way, he replied, "Ok. Sure. Ice skating sounds like fun." He walked up to the person in charge of handing out the skates and turned to Deja. "What size ice skate do you wear?" He really didn't need any ice skates because he could just create skates out of silver. It was a perk to being in control of his powers.
Making it to the rink, they went up to the man who handed out the skates and Deja just gave him a smile. The man was about 5'7 and was very skinny. He couldn't have been older than 28. "What size ice skate do you wear?"
"I wear a six." Deja looked at the many faces skating and spotted some girls glance over at them, obviously, looking at Shawn. It wasn't like he was her boyfriend or anything but still she sort of felt weird. The man quickly moved into his basket and reached out for a pair of black skates. As Deja took the skates from the man she walked over to a bench and began to take of the skates, Shawn next to her.
"Must be cool being able to manipulate Silver for skates?''

Shawn didn't notice the other girls in the skating rink that were staring at him. Not that he thought she would get mad at him for looking at other girls but he didn't want to give her the impression that he was going to ditch her for someone else. He was hear with her and no one was going to change that. Shawn followed her when she got the skates. She went over to put the skates on and she started talking to him again.
"Must be cool being able to manipulate Silver for skates?''
Streak looked at Deja when she said this and smiled. "What'd you do read my mind or something?" He said to her. He was pretty sure that she couldn't read his mind but it was a good thought. "But ya it is pretty cool, and cheap I may add, when you can create your own skates." he commented as he began to take off his shoes and cover his legs in silver. After only a few seconds the silver spread to his arms also. With the silver covering his arms he reached down and formed the blades of ice skates on his feet. Of course they were sharp enough to be right for skating but he could never seem to get them as sharp as his knives were.
If Deja could read his mind at this very moment she would wonder what he was thinking about her. Was he enjoying the now date so far or was it just being nice? "But ya it is pretty cool, and cheap I may add, when you can create your own skates."
The way it just former around his feet were so amazing, it was like that terminator movie, the first one. Well not really because Shawn wasn't going out killing everyone. As the Silver material went up to his shoulders, Deja smiled. Her hands touched his shoulder as it felt a little colder but nice. She soon wrapped her arm around his and they started to walk up into the icy area.
Walking up with him they made there way to the ice rink. The rink itself was pretty big and had a lot of room for everyone. It seemed like it just had been smoothed out by a Zamboni.
"Oh my God..I forgot how smooth this ice can be?''
