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.

Let out a loud laugh as Fausto started to get the dance, “That’s it Fausto, that’s all dancing is, an expression of yourself. Dance how you feel, the more fun you’re having the more fun everyone will have watching you.” Putting his hand down to his side Sam said, “Let’s try a combo!” throwing up his foot Sam kicked it in the air the way a front kick would be thrown and then turned it and then pivoted following his leg the way Michael Jackson did his little spin move.
“This one is a little harder,” said Sam as he then brought it into the moonwalk. Sam’s feet looked like they were floating as he was walking backwards, “The Moon Walk is an old dance but is still works.” Sam said as he smiled looking down at his feet making it look as simple as possible.
Laughing again Sam said, “Worry bout the girls after the dancing, you got to be your best for the band right?” Sam asked as he looked to Fausto, “the girls will come after the your band is good, sides I still need to help you look super sweet while your busting a move!” said Sam with a grin on his face.

¨ the moonwalk dont seems hard to understand but the movement is complicated, but that movement is famous in all the world . I want to be fresh and creative. I liked the trick with the spin ... I think I have an idea of what i can do for the show. ¨
the child leap forward with a front kick with his right leg at the end of the kick he ducks as much as he could.when he just finished moving downward he turned on itself with a sweep kick .Fausto relied on his right foot to hold the weight at keep the balance while he did the slide kick with the left. when he completed a lap he jumped in the place once as if he wanted to shake off the dust from his pants, he lifted his arm higher and make it down with fury to deliver a great hit with his elbow to hit an invisible enemy. His movements were fast and continuous ,every move was followed by another. the movements he was using were for combat the invisible enemy that seemed to anticipate each of them dodging his attacks, but each movement was executed for the following hit , it seemed as if it were a highly organized dance rather than an messy fight . Fausto just keep attacking. until he stopped. he had completed a descendent kick, he leave his heel a few seconds where he had fallen and draged his foot so it get together with the other one . his left hand was behind , on his back. he beating the air with a blow with his elbow, then he extended his arm forward snapping his fingers to finish simulating a gun with his hand.
¨ bang!¨ it was the only thing that the child said after that little show. it takes a few seconds for him to catch his breath again , if he wanted do something like that during a show he should start to work to maintain a proper breathing with each movement. and adjust the breathing of each movement to fight for a breath to sing. When he finally catch his breath I looked at his teacher with a challenging gaze.

Sam stared opened mouthed at Fausto to make it look like he couldn’t believe what he saw, “You said you don’t know how to dance? That was amazing Fausto!” said Sam as he patted his student on the back and said, “The only thing I would say is that if you don’t figure out how to breath during the dance you won’t be able to sing after, might I suggest you do that at the end of the dance? Maybe for the guitar solo at the end?”
Sam walked away from Fausto and then thought to himself, ‘I need to figure out how to do that…’ he turned around and asked Fausto, “What do you call that move? Or was it something that you just came up with?”
Trying to think of something that would top Fausto’s Dance Sam said, “How bout a dance off?” A dance off in Sam’s opinion was something that was a joint effort between to friends, one-friend dances and then the other friend would try to top him. “thin your ready Fausto!” that being said the music picked up and Sam jumped on his hands and kept balance doing the handstand. From there he jumped up and down on his hands still holding his body up while he kept kicking his legs off in different directions and then turned it into a flip and then landed on his hands.
After he was done he looked to Fausto and said, “Your turn buddy remember this is just for fun!”

¨ you are right, i don't know how to dance but i know how to fight. i did what you say, is all about how you fell and how do you show it to the others. ¨
Fausto smiled while he did a wink for him.he was proud of what he had done, but as Sam told him ,he was not dancing, at least not according to a rhythm . but with a heavier music style a strong resemblance to a fighter would be perfect if the drummer coordinates with which the fighter or dancer , whatever you want to call him.
¨ohh that move ... is a combination ... legs together, showing an upright position with one hand behind the back and the other extended to the enemy calling him is a classic in the movies with fights. the snap of the fingers and the shoot is cuz I like guns, it's like shooting the gun, the snap is just to give you some sound to hear . as if the hammer hits. ahh also feel as if I lost too much breath too, maybe i should train more and try to mix combat breathing with the breathing properly for singing ... ¨
Fausto looked with suspicion when Sam proposed a break dance move , Fausto was hoping it was just a joke. but he couldn't disguised his disappointment when he saw that the proposal was real .
¨ you are a box full of surprises, where do you get so many things? when I think I can qualify you as a former rock star you appear with break dance movements... ¨
Fausto smiled shyly ... he didn't like the idea but Sam seemed very serious about that matter, with a last supplicant glance toward Sam to see if he could make hims change his mind. it didn't work ,he was still staring at Fausto expectant. So the child gets closer to the center of the Danger Room again ,to the place that Sam had occupied seconds before to make his small demonstration of break dance.
¨ Sam, i don't like break dance ... but i gonna try ... ¨
Fausto's arms were not as strong as Sam but his weight was also much less than his .he attempted to stand a few times in his hands but he ends doing cartwheels. his body was going to the sides instead of being in the center with balance . his agility didn't served much in that situation, the child tried a lot of times , he tried to stand on his hands and ended up falling to one side or with his back on the floor. in one of his attempts to stand on his hands he could do it but when he tried to move his legs he fall towards the floor. the floor wasn't very soft, his arms started to hurt . his muscles were getting tired and a bit sore by the constants falls.
¨ this is not for me ... and i don't believe the others would like to do break dance ... is suppose to be a rock band. ¨

Sam grinned to Fausto and said, “Regardless you did good today real good!” he patted Fausto on the back and then looked at his watch and said, “Already been here for a few hours?” frowning realizing he was supposed to have a date with Leila not long from now Sam looked back to Fausto and said, “Well I think that's enough for the day.” Looking up to the god room Sam yelled, “Computer end session!”
Putting his hand on Fausto’s back and walking him to the door of the danger room San said, “Break dancing is just another form of dancing, you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to but one think I will do is give you some homework,” grinning at the idea he was giving homework, “I want you to come up with your own dance routine, dance to the song and how you want okay?”
As they walked out of the room Sam smiled to Fausto and said, “And I don’t want to hear, “I Can’t” from you when your working with me again, got it?” Sam patted him on the head and bowed his head slightly and then said as he started to walk off, “Let me know when you have your first concert I’ll see if I can make it!”
