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.

Geo shook his head and smiled when Lei asked why they couldn't be seen together, he had gotten in trouble too many times with Syn. "Well if I blew your cover Syn would skin me alive, and I mean that literally, I think she would skin me." He chuckled slightly again before sliding his menu to the end of the table without looking at it, he already knew what he wanted. "If that wasn't the case then I would have no problem being seen with a cute blond." He said with a little wink when the waitress came over to take they're orders.
Geo ordered coffee, black, and a order of sausage biscuits and gravy. The waitress paused to take Lei's orders then ran off to the kitchen. "So tell me, do I know this lucky fella that has you claimed up at the X-dweeb mansion?"

Leila grinned, "Well, she surely do not want that, do we?" she smirked at the thought of him being killed because he'd blown a cover that wasn't even that good. X-Men didn't need spies, really they were so boring! So predicatable. Though, maybe if she could get herself in the X-Men... or as a Trainee anyway, things could change. She could get some insight before her dramatic exit. Would Syn skin her instead, if she bblew her secret? She really didn't think so, the Dolphin girl could be of better use at the Sanctuary permenantly anyway.
"I'll take the cheese omelets." she said to the waitress, "And a Cappuchino." she added quickly, before the waitress could go off. She turned her attention to Geo, a smile on her face at his question. Would she be putting Sam in danger by telling Geo he was the lucky fella? "Sam Johnson. Ice Elemental. He's very valuable to the team. So far... I discovered that he's pretty much their leader in most of the missions he goes on. Plus, his powers are very strong, and he's had a lot of practice I can tell you that." hopefully, putting in a little stuff that would make it sound as if she knew a hell of a lot about them all, would show that she was actually doing her job too.
The waitress came back a few moments later, and Leila smiled at Geo. "So, who's paying for this one?" she asked, her purse tucked in between the wall and her hip. She didn't mind paying, but how about they make it a little fun? See how hard it will be to get him to pay for her. He seemed like the guy who would do anything to get girls... let's have fun with that trait.
Geo's face went up in a brief sneer when he heard the name of Leila's boyfriend. DAMNIT! Was this kid everywhere! Every girl Geo had hung out with lately seemed to know him in some way or another. He quickly reconstructed his composure and then smiled briefly to Lei. "Well he sounds like a very nice guy..." Geo said through his teeth, trying not to be obvious about his feeling towards the X-dweeb. Geo took a sip of his coffee before giving Leila a phony smile. "I bet I could beat him in a fight though." Geo said chuckling softly to himself, little did Leila know he already knew the answer.
Geo took another sip of his coffee before placing it down and leaning into the table on his elbows. "And if you even think about trying to pay for this maybe i'll show you exactly what i can do." Geo said punctuating with a wink.

Leila laughed at his expression. "Yeah, a bit too nice sometimes." she said, "So, what kind of relationship? Enemies, Rivals..." she knew he hated his guts just by the deadly look in his eyes at the mention of the ice elemental's name. Leila expected that, though she really didn't mind laughing about it. He was her boyfriend, sure... but he could still mock him when he wasn't around! She was in the Order after all, and he was in the X-Men. She hated the X-Men, just like they hated her team.
"Yeah, I'd love to see that!" she said with a smirk on her face, "I hope we have the chance to partner up against a battle with the X-Men one day. I mean, once my job there is over... we could take on him, both of us. Just to have a little fun with him, crush his ego... He may be my boyfriend, but I wouldn't mind if he toned it down a little. Rumors spread, and with my fine hearing I tend to hear it better then others." she paused, "We could see how well he can hold up with the unbelievable Rock Man and his goregous sidekick, Dolphin Woman." she grinned again, knowing she was pushing it waaaay to far now.
Most of this was just talk, she wouldn't actually fight him, not yet anyway. "Now, that was pretty easy. I had many bets in mind... I expected you to play a bigger game then that! Not just... accept to pay for me." she laughed, tossing a piece of baccon in her mouth. "So, would you show me what exactly you can do?" she asked, just like the car, it was in a flirty tone that she knew not even he could resist. Oh poor, poor Sam. He was really getting some competition now, if only he knew...
Geo searched for the answer to Lei's question in his mind. "Well let's just say we had a...rocky first meeting." A sinister grin formed on Geo's face as he spoke. He could tell Leila got a kick out of the reaction Geo had to Sam's name. This changed everything entirely, he would love nothing more then to have Leila now, she seemed almost irresistible to him. Geo let his foot slide under the table against Leila's as she spoke. "Yeah I think that we would make a good team, you and I, we should definatly try it some time." Geo said, his sinister smile forming into a crooked one, let the games begin.
"Well I'll be sure to show you all of my skills when we get back to the sanctuary, we'll have to find ourselves a secluded area though. You just so that I don't accidentally hurt somebody." Geo said, he was about to crank his game up to max capacity, her boyfriend being the deciding factor.

Leila smiled, "Yeah, well normally that would happen between an X-Men and an Order member." she said, picking at her food absent-mindedly. She felt a bit overwelmed for some reason, as if she could read his thoughts, and all they said were: 'I want Leila! Give me Leila!' well, sure Geo was a cool guy, he was on her side... and he was really good-looking... but right now, she wasn't all that interested. Poor Geo, he must truly hate Sam now.
She felt her foot being knocked slightly to the left as Geo's made contact with it. That meant nothing, the tiny goosebumps on the back of her neck didn't mean a thing. "Well I'm certain in the near future, Syn will need both of us for something, hopefully dangerous and very fun." mentally, she added: and hopefully we have a third partner, or else he'd probably have trouble concentrating. Or would he? Did his job rule over his thoughts for attractive women?
Maybe he didn't even like her at all! Did you ever think of that Leila? She sighed softly, 'no! I can't do this, it's so wrong. Poor Sam, he's really going to freak if he finds out exactly what I'm thinking about right now, with Geo in front of me.' she thought, though it really didn't help that somewhere deep down... maybe, just maybe... the kiss yesterday was still there, trying to eat her alive? Would she really fall for Geo?
Probably not in the same way she'd fallen for Sam... but in due time, who knows? She may need a shoulder to cry on if ever Sam did break up with her. Then she remembered that Geo had spoken a few seconds ago. "Oh yeah, well I'm pretty good with the Trainning Room. I got all the controls and the computerdown. Maybe we could try my new and improved levels for this simulation I've been working on." she tried to sound as buisness-like as possible... as if she wasn't just the tiniest bit exited.
