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.

Fausto quietly walked through the streets of the city,he was returning from one of the meetings organized by Cielle with the voice teacher. he was really tired but he had made a considerable progress in comparison with the first class. His voice was getting used to the tones he would use to sing and he also seemed to dominate the breathing. a proper breathing is always appropriate for a singer, a forced breathe singing can damage the vocal cords. The only problem remained in the lyrics practice. Fausto forgot the letters or simply failed to show the feeling of the author. they didnt started making songs themselves, but Takumi seemed to be working on some lyrics, as he always was writing in a book. The time wasnt a problem, so they took it easy.
Night was falling , it was getting dark when Fausto left the hotel, waving graciously to the usual door man ,who tells him the way the first time he entered in the hotel. Fausto couldnt stop thinking that the man is satisfied with a mediocre job with no possibility of progress. He seemed to be an intelligent and kind man, maybe if he propose himself to achieve something more ... The lights of the city were turning on slowly. buildings, signs and the bright lights of the streets. everything started to shine with the light of these small suns made by the man. Fausto never get tired of seeing the city lights, the illuminated signs with different shapes and colors, many of them with funny announces to gain more attention . it was almost impossible not to watch.
A song distracted him of his contemplation, it was a gentle soft song, quite romantic, one of those songs that you are engraved on the head and always remind you some love of the past. The song sounded pretty close but he couldnt specify the place ... Fausto stopped a few seconds, trying to discover the origin of the song. Suddenly the flush covered his face. nobody seemed to care about what he did , people just kept walking. a ringing cell phone is not something from another world so that people just continue in his own way. Still with the red face of shame, Fausto looked in his pockets for the small and sophisticated equipment that sounded pretty strongly with that song. Cielle had changed his ringtones, one for herself and another for Takumi. Fausto find the cellphone when the song ended , and after a few seconds he could hear another sound indicating that reached a text message. He carefully checked the menu until he find the place where the messages where .the message was from Cielle ¨ I call you three times! why you didnt answer me? Takumi had a good idea for a song.could you come back tomorrow?answer me soon , please . ¨
¨our first song ¨ Fausto whispered to himself while he beginning to walk again in the direction of the mansion. he was just happy with the idea of singing a song made by themself. Fausto draw the cellphone again from the inside of his pocket and began to search in the menu to find the messages again . he never was quite accustomed to the use of cell phones, he never needed them. Fausto bumped accidentally with a person while he was trying to decipher the way to use the space and punctuation. She appeared to be a normal girl about his age, perhaps a little more older than him . but something was wrong .could it be that her eyes seemed to glow with a green light ?. probably a mutant.

Yet she does not see the man she soon runs into him. Kasumi. falls on her boot as her hood drops back. Some of her bright red hair falls over her eyes as she mutters "Ow.." the blue and green spots can be seen on her face. Kasumi. Stands up as it dawns on her that she ran into someone. Soon she bows as she speeks "I am so sorry sir. I did not mean to I was kind of playing."
Her bright green eyes looks at him as she speeks to him again "Do you happen to know were the X mansion is at?" she prays that he does. For she can not wounder any longer she was to be there hours ago. She smiles to him as she stands there.
Soon Kasumi. rembers she dusts her jeans off. She did not like this place it was to hot it is dark so she thinks that it is ok to take the hoddie off and she does. She has on a black tnak top with white lace around the top of the bust and botton him. There her more blue and green spots on the back of her arms. She smiles more yes she is a mutant.

Surprisingly after a apologize the girl asked for the X mansion. Sometimes the mutants aren't very popular and they must be careful when they ask such things. most part of humans would run shouting the awful word Mutant. Fortunately the girl was found by Fausto, a resident of the mansion and a very proud mutant.
The girl took off her hoodie letting expose to sigh several peculiar green spots on the skin . obviously a mutant, and there were no doubts now. Fausto negate with the head trying to give less importance to the incident ¨don't worry, I also came distracted. I didn't realize you were coming towards me ¨ and he quickly add ¨I know where the mansion is .I am going there right now . but first let me give you an advice, not all people react well when you ask for a place like the mutant mansion. not everyone like mutants , ya know ? take care of your words ¨
Fausto tried to give her a friendly advice, but it seemed to be more like a threat , so he quickly made an exaggerated reverence as those made in the ancient imperial court. totally out of fashion, but the goal was to break the ice and make a good impression. at least in a funny way. he didnt want her to think he would be a threat for her or he would hurt her. she seemed a little scared. would her have escaped from his home when she discovered her skills? or their parents would have fired her out of the house ? ¨ you don't got nothing to fear with me , I'm a mutant too. Fausto is my name but people that know me like to call me Iron Mouth. ¨ Fausto extended his hand while he asked the girl in front of him ¨whats your name lady ?¨ then he wait for the answer staring at these amazings brights green eyes .

Kasumi looks at him with her eyes. She soon nods "I know.. I have no idea why we are not liked." she shakes her head as she lets out a softi sigh. Soon Kasumi pulls some of her hair behind her ear. She soon smiles as she hears his Fausto then Iron Mouth.
Kasumi smiles more as she bows her head. Soon she shakes his hand as she smiles "I am Kasumi just that now... never got a nick name. Thank you so much for being kind to me. I have been lost.. I am bad in the big the city." She soon sighs as she shakes her head.
Kasumi is not use to this place yet she will in time. Kasumi looks around her she is just not use to seeing so meny high palces "I would love to climb on a few well Iron Mouth lead the way." She smiles huge. Kasumi thinks to herself "Yey I am going to make it tonight and with out the use of my powers."
Kasumi looks at the sky with her eyes as she walks by Iron Mouth she is ready to see her new home and as soon as she gets to her room she will have to call her mom and dad she knows that they are freacking out over her. Like aways they worrie far to much about her. Yet after all of this time Kasumi has got use to it becues she is an only child and almost died meny of times. Yet is alive and well now.

¨I don't think we can climb to any roof without permission. and not all buildings have a side stair. at least not the biggest ones ... anyway I don't think we can see many stars, as the lights and the pollution in the city block them . We can see them in the mansion if you want. I like the lights of the city but ... ¨ Fausto did not finish the sentence, a cold breeze made him shake , night was falling and it was doing with a very cold wind. ¨ The mansion is a bit far what about a taxi? Your parents should be worried , better go quickly so you can call they in the mansion ¨
Many cars were on the street but no one cab around but something happen .which almost always happened when Fausto needed a cab. The cab stop where they were, and the driver cheerfully greet Fausto ¨ hey long time no see you, eh. how is your wound? ¨ He merely greet with one hand while with the other he tried to tell the driver to stop talking about the subject . for some reason Fausto wasn't in mood to talk about this issue, he preferred not to scare Kasumi with the story of how he received the wound. Fausto go forward and opened the door so she could go up . ¨ don't worry, he is a mutant like us. he helped me many times, i don't know how he do but he seem to know when a mutant decides he want to take a cab.¨ Fausto keep the door opened waiting for Kasumi to decide if she wanted to go with him in the cab .
The cab driver often seemed to know the destination before the customer were told it to him . but the cab driver asked politely anyway. when passengers told him where they wanted to go he made a triumphant smile like saying ¨i knew it ¨. It was a nice man who seemed to have experienced many things along his life. the driver didnt like to talk about his personal lives, but always listened attentively to customers.

Kasumi nods softly "Alright." she kind of makes a face but she is sure she will end up doing it some day. She soon wounders about it for a seconds she slips her hoddie back in and pull her hood back up. She does so for the cab. She looks at the man talking to Iron Mouth. . Kasumi is not sure what they are talking about but she does not care.
Kasumi speeks in a happy voice "I have never rode in a cab before." she smiles as she pulls her hood back, she runs her fingers though her hair. Kasumi is trying to lay some her hair down "It is nice to meet you." she sits her back pack by her "Yeah I know about my mom and dad I am sure I have over 50 calls on my cell." Soon she smiles and shakes her head.
Kasumi looks at him with her eyes "So why the name Iron Mouth? All I can think is something that has to do with our mouth." She plays with a stran of her hair as her eyes looks at him the bright green eyes. Something that she has never got use to. She always missed her deep brown eyes. She always woundered why she has the powers of a frog.
Kasumi hopes that she is not asking to much about him. He is her first firnd and she was to know a few things about him. His powers is one of them. People always asked about her spots she has got use to that also. It seems that the coloring on her skin is not seen to much. To humans she passed them up as tatoos but to others like her she tells them what they do.

The taxi moved in the streets with great skill, it evade a few cars while the cab leave the big city with graceful moves . the main streets were full of people walking without much to do .while the cab was leaving the big city the amount of people around drop significantly. Fausto answered cheerfully when she asked him about his nickname and evolution.
¨ Yes, you got it right. My power has to do with my mouth. in short we could say that my power is that i can ¨eat all i want ¨. ¨
Fausto waited with a big smile on his face, he liked to introduce his power with a few enigmatic words, then he let run a few seconds of suspense before a little better explaination of his ability. Neena had been quite surprised the first day she met him. Fausto really missed her so much.
¨Actually is little more complicated than that, but my saliva can melt almost everything with a few exceptions. Things just melt in my mouth and my digestive track is responsible for obtaining nutrients from them. my saliva is a mix of different acids and corrosive substances , is a very complicated chemist thing ... i dont know all the details . ¨
Fausto discussed internally between give her a demonstration of his skills eating anything near or just change the subject hoping that his explanation was clear enough for her. He chose the second option, and quickly change the topic of the conversation focusing it on her again.
¨how do you get lost ? do you plan to stay in the mansion some time ? you'll like the mansion, is a huge place full of mutants like us. lots of different skills and new people to know, is a great place to make friends. if you want to stay as a resident of the mansion you have to fill out an application for entry, nothing complicated. only some personal information related to medical information, any telephone to contact with any responsible adult in case of needed and a short explanation of your skills as a mutant. ¨
The driver interrupt the conversation ¨We are near the mansion , enjoy the view . we gonna be there soon.¨ Perhaps the driver ¨read¨ that she was impatient of perhaps Fausto was the impatient one . anyway he advice that the mansion was near .

Kasumi eyes looks at him as she nods "That makes sence." she smiles as she looks out the window, she welcomes the warmth of the cab on her body. She is happy that she did not get scared or she would of been making her posion. Kasumi hopes that someday that she can make it at will not get scared to make it.
Kasumi laughs at herself some about getting lost "Well I wanted to walk I never been here. Also it was not to far form were I got off at so I thought why not. Hmm I thin that can get lost anywere another power of mine." Kasumi laughs more "Yes I am going to stay at the mansion. I did read that it was easy to get a r oom." She smiles to Iron Mouth softly "I alreay made a firend." she could not be happyer over that.
Kasumi rests her hands on the galss of the cab. Her eyes wounders as she sees the mansion she looks at it in awa as she speeks "Oh yeah I am going to get lost here also.." yet she hopes not for to long but that is life you have to get lost to find your way. She pulls a stran of her hair behind her ear as she feels her nervs settin in her. Kasumi soon takes a deep breath as she closes her eyes trying to keep herself clame.

Despite the warning of the driver the mansion didnt appeared in the sight almost for another minutes. Fausto used these minutes to try to send the reply to the message to Cielle about the idea for the song. after several failed attempts, he decided to ask Kasumi for help.
¨ Kasumi do you know how to send a text message? I am not very accustomed to these technologies, in fact I dislike them but Cielle insists that it is useful for the band ...¨ For some reason he felt weird to pronounce her name aloud ,it was the first time he named Cielle loudly to someone outside the band .he always referred to the things he did in the evening as "a walk through the city ¨. without knowing why he tried to justify himself. ¨I am trying to form a rock band ... but it is a secret, do not say anything please. Cielle is the drummer .¨ Fausto looked through the window trying not to seem nervous about the awful silence. ¨When i bumped with you in the street I was trying to answer a message for her ¨ he felt better wihout say her name . ¨ It seems that the guitarist has an idea for a song and want an answer to know when i can go again so we can chat about the subject. do you want to help me to send it?i really dont understand these devices ... ¨
Fausto waited for her answer with his hand extended to her with the cellphone . He recognize the neighborhood , they where reaching the mansion . who would be the greeter this time ? In his case Neena was the one that give him the welcome but she wasnt in the mansion anymore . Perhaps Sam would be the one ...

She turns and looks to Fausto as she nods "Yes I know how. I will be happy to help you." She smiles as she pulls some of hair behind her hair "Call me Sumi eveyone called me that back home even my mom and dad." she smiles more at the band idea "Oh that is so cool. Do not fear I will not say anything. If you need a dance I will be glad to help."
Kasumi smiles more about that. As she think "haveing a band must be fun." she speeks out loud "I can draw really well." she nods as she looks at his phone this will be easy to di "Just tell me what you want to say and I will type it in as I do it I will teach you." She smiles more as she nods to herself.
Part of her can not wate to get to her new home but she is likeing the time she is spinding with Fausto also. In the past she was so shy but she is not shy around him. He is so easy to talk to him like he has a good heart and she is happy for that.
Kasumi speeks to him "If you guys get big I will love to do your cover at if you will let me. I mean you do not have to pay me or anything just becues we are firends." she smiles huge as she says that "When I am seddle in and all I will show you my drawings and doddles." Kasumi draws anything that comes to her she does not have anything really set in what she draws. She is all over the palce.

The boy answered with a soft smile in his face , he was enjoying the way to the mansion too.
¨thanks Sumi, I would like you learn some moves from you... I'm not very good at dancing, well not that i really try many times. Throughout my life I never needed to dance. A few years before entering the mansion i just wandered around without doing too much, i was just thinking of revenge, in the past and the food ... I never imagined ending making friends again, and ending joining a band ... ¨
While the houses pass away to their side, they played with Fausto^cellphone , Sumi made it seemed rather simple, she surf into the menus with a great ability.
¨ dont worry so much for the message just tell her that i would be there the day after tomorrow . do you like to draw? I would love to see some of your drawings when we arrive to the mansion. the money does not seem to be a problem for Cielle^s father but better if you want to do it free ¨ Fausto wink an eye in a gesture of complicity.
The car move softly and gently until it stopped completely in from of the main gates of the mansion . the main gate allowed to see a large field covered with snow, and a little more further a proudly as a giant mansion with thousands of tiny eyes ,it emerged from the white field in that pacific postal of snowfall. The driver's voice sound again in the car . ¨ we are here kids. Fausto dont worry, I will not make a friend pay me. ¨ Fausto left the car with a big smile, two people had called him ¨friend ¨that evening. Fausto quickly exited the car while he wave the driver with his hand ,he leave the door open for Kasumi . the first thing that she should see would be the mansion. the child approached the door, more precisely to the electronic board that operated as a speaker and electronic lock. Fausto income a couple of numbers on the numeric pad and the gate opened alone for him. in that moment a unidentified flying object hit the door near him . A young man was waiting in the mansion ground near the main gate .
