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.

Unknowingly in the base of her enemies, Arielle laid in the Sanctuary's Infirmary, sleeping as peaceful as she would have in her own bed at the mansion. The whole night, she hadn't stirred once and she kept the same position Geo had placed her when he had laid her down. It wasn't until around 7am that morning that she shifted the slightest and when she did so, her arms moved a bit towards the edge of the bed. What she wasn't expecting was for it to land on a headful of hair. She let out a slight tired groan and opened her right eye to peak at who's head exactly it was.
When she saw that it was Geo's head, she immediately sat upwards and rubbed her eyes so that she would get a clearer vision of her new surroundings. This definitely wasn't the mansion because she had never seen this room before and there was no way Geo would be inside it. She was sure if any of the other X-men had spotted him, they would have allowed him entrance because of his affiliation. Still, what did his affiliation matter? Arielle looked down at Geo with softened eyes as what had happened last night started to come back in her head. She remembered him saying that he would stay with her and as soon as she woke up, there he was by her bedside. Forget the X-men-Order rivalries because as bad as a reputation the baby eaters seem to have, Geo was without a doubt one of the sweetest people she had ever met and she knew that he wasn't like the other Order members. That deep down below all that hatred he carried because of his past, he still had a heart and he cared enough to look over her that night. She reached over and gently placed her hand on his shoulder and shook him a bit to wake him up.
Geo slept soundly through the night, only waking slightly when Arielle shifted then falling back into his deep sleep. His dreams reflected his time with Deja and the great difficulties he had after her disappearance, the denial stage, the anger then finally the acceptance. Her face haunted his dreams, no doubt brought into his subconscious by the activities the night before. Someone shook him lightly and his head shot up. "Don't go." He exclaimed quietly as he woke. His eyes adjusted to see Arie sitting up in the infirmary bed, her hand on his shoulder. Geo smiled lightly at her, his left hand reaching up to touch hers on his shoulder. "Good morning, how are you feeling?" Geo asked, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
The events of the day before started coming back to him slowly replacing his smile with a concerned look. He reached up and brushed Arie's hair from her eyes and checked to color: brown.
"I'm feeling...stable." was the only word Arielle could think of to describe her condition. She wasn't exactly in the happiest of moods from what had happened last night, but after having rested she wasn't horrible either. ""I'm alright, thanks to you," she said reaching up to give Geo a gentle kiss on his forehead. "Why did you stay here in that uncomfortable chair? You didn't have to stay here with me. And where exactly is here?" she asked looking around. "I know I'm not home. Where did you bring me?"
Geo smiled when Arielle said she was alright. "I said I would stay with you until you got this figured out. I know how difficult it is to go through these kind of things on your own." Geo then folded his arms across the edge of the bed, leaning forward when Arie asked him where they were. "It's where we first met, that big building you were wondering about, remember? It's a safe place for all mutants and it was easier to get you in here then for me to sneak you into the mansion." Geo ruffled his own hair, putting it back into it's regular state. He yawned a bit then stretched with a very audible groan, these seats were defiantly not made for sleeping in but he didn't mind, just worried whether or not Arie was safe.
"If you want I can make us some breakfast back at my garage. We could get breakfast here but I don't want anyone recognizing you."
I said I would stay with you until you got this figured out. I know how difficult it is to go through these kind of things on your own."
"Heh, that's sweet. Thing is I don't even know what is wrong with me. I've never been bipolar or schizo...at least the doctors never picked up on anything every time I had an appointment. I've always been in good physical and mental health, but I guess that's not the case anymore..." she let out a sigh and set her hands in her laps looking down at them. Arielle's eyes then opened as Geo mentioned that he had brought her inside the sanctuary. Excellent. She was behind enemy lines.
"Wow...you cook too? Hot looks, hot bod, great hair, own your own business, and you cook, yet you're still single. If that ain't an enigma, I don't know what is..." she chuckled slightly. "I'd love to go back to your garage and have breakfast. However there's no use in trying to sneak me out. Why not give me the grand tour? I'm not here to start anything. If anyone wants to throw down, well then they can bring it."
Geo chuckled lightly, "Yeah I'm like a triple threat." He smiling charmingly at Arie. "And from what I can tell, a lot of elemental mutant's powers are triggered by emotion, like my powers are fueled by anger. I know this fire ele girl who's powers are fueled off lust. Maybe yours is fueled by sadness or confusion." He stood briefly and tucked his leg under himself when he sat back down. "If we find your trigger than your mutation will be easier for you to control." His left hand sat on the table and his index finger traced the stitching on her jeans.
"I know that your not going to start trouble but the other members hate X'ys more then I do." His voice sounded distant as he spoke, going over all the possibilities in his mind. "I suppose we can disguise you a bit and give you a brief tour but then it's to the garage, okay missy?" Geo said, a teasing smile on his face, his eyes still distance.
"Disguise? Heh, no thanks. I'm glad you're considering my safety, but I'll be fine. I can handle myself." Arielle said watching Geo's finger trace the stitching on her pants leg. She let out a sigh. She couldn't tell when he was being friendly or flirting anymore. Then again, it wasn't like she moved his hand. His touch was comforting and she wasn't going to deny that she enjoyed being in his arms and his kiss. But I'm taken... was all she could keep saying to herself in her head. She cared about Geo, as a dear friend, but there was the lust too it.
"Yes. A tour and then back to your place..." she said taking his hand in her own and giving him a smile.
Geo rolled his eyes jokingly when Arie denied the disguise idea. "I don't deny that you can handle yourself, just trying to avoid it all together." He smiled when Arie took his hand and agreed to the tour. "Alright come on," Geo said reluctantly, he didn't like showing a X'ey the sanctuary, it was bad enough when he told Lori just a little bit about them a couple months ago and at least there he was trying to get something out of the deal, with Arie he was just trying to help his friend. Deciding that he would only show her the parts of the sanctuary any other mutant could see Geo gripped Arie's hand and led her out of the infirmary.
"Just a hoodie, that's all I'm askin'." Geo pleaded in a playful tone as the walked into the hallway, Geo was unhappy to find that alot of the mutants, order and homeless alike were awake, he hadn't realized how long they had been asleep. "What do you want to see first?"
"Hoodie, no honey, I will be fine. Trust me," Arielle replied. "And I don't know where to start. What is there to see? What does this place have that's SO much better than the mansion besides hosting a bunch of bigtoed, blood thirsty mutants...besides you of course," she blushed at the earth elelmental. "Are you really that uncomfortable about me being exposed? I mean if it''s really that much of a problem...." she paused, putting a fnger to her chin and then came a sly grin. Where do you sleep here? I want to see your room." she smiled.
Geo chuckled slightly at Arie. "'Bigtoed' huh?" He mocked. Arie was the cutest when she she acted all cutesy. He couldn't help but grin charmingly when she did, it was replaced with a serious face when Arie asked where his room was. Geo leaned down dangerously close to Her face and took his right hand and ever so lightly brushed aside her hair, his fingers barely touching her forehead. He checked her eyes real quick, nope, still brown. Geo then put his grin back up again. Without moving from his position Geo spoke.
"This way," He said and took Arie's hand leading her down the hall to his right. It wasn't that far a walk from the dorms so they were there soon enough. Geo opened up the seventh door to his left and flicked on the light. It was obvious it was a teenage boys room, the queen sized bed with a green blanket was messy and unmade, there was random pop bottles around the room, clothes in the corner and a small computer desk with a stereo and a old computer on it. He stepped into the middle of the room in two strides, "Welcome to Casa Da Lay Rock," Geo said in an attempt at another language.
"What the heck is he doing?" Arielle thought as Geo brushed away her bangs and looked into her eyes. Was there something the matter? She had no clue about her eyes changing color when the other personality within her stirred to the surface. She merely thought it was just another weird way of him trying to seduce her.
"This way," Geo spoke taking her hand once more and lead her to his room. Arielle couldn't help but laugh at Geo's little at another language. "Honey, work on your spanish. Especially if you're talking to me. Don't forget that I'm from Brazil," she said. "You room is cute..." she said taking a seat on his bead and laying back on the mattress. "Maybe you could tidy up a bit more, but besides that, it's lovely." she said looking over to him with a smile. "Comfortable mattress too. Here I thought a villain that controlled earth would be sleeping on something that felt like a stone slab."
Geo stuck out his tongue at Arielle when she made fun of his Spanish and his rooms condition. But she did seem to like it a bit, Geo thought jokingly in his head 'it's the history' he said and chuckled to himself, he wheeled the chair out from the desk and pushed it next to where Arie lay. "Well," Geo began teasingly, "It used to be but all the girls started to complain."
[[sorry for the shortness, not really in the condition to write right now.]]
"Really?" Arielle's eyebrow arched upwards at his latest statement. "Well, I'm definitely not complaining..." she said reaching over and placing a hand under Geo's chin. "Had I not denied, is this where you would have taken me? Funny how we're here right now...." she said withdrawing her hand and placing it back on the mattress.
"It's a tough position to be in. When you actually want to have a little fun with someone, but you can't because you're held back, bounded by the rules of being in a relationship...even if the one you're with isn't around...." she said looking back at Geo with her brown eyes gazing into his hazel ones. It was almost as if a spark ignited in that moment. "I usually like to work out before lunch, usually by going out for a jog or doing a danger room session, but there are other ways we could burn some calories, no?"
Geo looked down at Arie, laying on his bed, man this girl was sexy no matter what she did. "Probably, this pad seems to have better seduction vibes then a place filled with car parts and oil." He slid the chair closer to the bed, practically leaning over Arie. "Yeah...tell me about it..." Geo responded to how difficult this situation was. He gazed down into Arie's big brown eyes. It was so hard, he felt like a magnet drawn to steel, he had to physically stop himself from getting closer to Arie.
She made another sexual hint and Geo couldn't help but grin, she was so confusing. One moment she was the most seductive minx he'd seen then the next she's worried because she had a boyfriend who didn't care enough to call. Geo couldn't help but wonder..."Well there's plenty things we can do to get you all worked up, I know a few...but let's here some of your idea's." Geo said playfully.
"Oh, so you, you're playing this game..." Arielle sighed removing her jacket and taking off her jeans, leaving her in just a tank top, and the black short shorts she had been wearing under her pants. Slowly, she sat back up, leaving mere centimeters between her face and Geo's. "I do have a few, but I rather not let such naughty words roll off of my tongue..." she said glaring back at him. "It's wrong to be with another when you already have someone...but if anything were to happen, it'd be his fault for neglecting me, wouldn't it?" she asked.
