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.

"Well, can't stay in a towel when they bring the food, we might scare the deliver person! A naked redhead with a giant redman...interesting thought," she smirked as she imagined the deliver person being some small elderly asian lady who dropped their food when she saw the sight. It almost made her laugh but she held it back. Slowly, he was tugging her towards him. The man just could not get enough, it was rather tempting, but she knew she could never satisfy his appetite. No, maybe seventeen girls could, but she'd rather not be part of that.
"So you know about the bed, jacuzzi, and kitchen? Oh, what a man you are, Venus," she laughed. Then again, wasn't there some kind of razor for women called Venus. I'm your Venus, I'm your fire, your desire. What a fitting song... With a cute smile on her face, she allowed herself to be pulled into him and when she was close enough to make skin contact, which she made for all of about one second, she phased through him and out the door.
Clothes were on her mind, but not the clothes she had taken off the night before, no, she would be satisfied with an oversized t-shirt of his. So, she walked into the bedroom, still holding the towel around her and opened his drawers. "What should we do while we wait?"
~~"Well, can't stay in a towel when they bring the food, we might scare the deliver person! A naked redhead with a giant redman...interesting thought,"
“ I don’t think I’ve ever been freighted by a naked Red head.” Venus mused.
~~"So you know about the bed, jacuzzi, and kitchen? Oh, what a man you are, Venus,"
“What is that supposed to mean?” he questioned playfully. “ they are the essentials.”
~~ "What should we do while we wait?"
“I don’t know, I suppose it could be my turn?” He moved into the shower and flicked the water back on, compared to his shower at home this one was archaic, one shower head? Bah! Reguardless he leathered up a white foam across his arms and back, his tail doing the majority of the hard to reach places that his muscles forbade him access to. The shampoo slid into his hair breaking the spikes from their near permanent stance on his head. His hair drooped onto his scalp, perhaps he would get back to it later.
He reached for a razor and cleaned up the stuble on his cheeks, giving him a clean shaven cheeks and a well groomed goatee.
"And what does scare you then?" she asked in a mild temptress voice as she dipped her hands into the dresser to search for something to wear. She found an oversized shirt and put it on. It was big enough to reach her mid-thigh and since putting on yesterday's undergarments was gross, she just wore the t-shirt. "You one of those sports guys? Why don't you know where the tv is?" she teased a little.
She walked back into the bathroom, leaning up against the door, waiting for him to exit the shower. While she waited, she picked at her fingernails, something she did when she was bored. Well, it's a good thing they ordered out because Fade was the worst at cooking.
~~"You one of those sports guys? Why don't you know where the tv is?"
“Nah, Sports are kind of pathetic, I could take any sports team all by myself. It looses the appeal. I am sure there is a tv…somewhere around here, Leon mentioned something behind a hide away panel in the living room.” Venus said as he reached for one of the beach sized towels under the sink.
“Are you a sports girl? Venus made light conversation. “ as he observed the female. “ that looks good on you by the way.”
Truth be told, she did not expect Venus to actually say something that he was afraid of. Fade had pinned the guy (no innuendo intended) to be one of those kinds who would say that his biggest fear was a sudden beer drought or lesbian epidemic, something that men were afraid of but knew would never happen. Not to mention how Venus did not know where the tv was and he did not enjoy sports. That was a double whammy! What an interesting man.
"Good, sports are boring," she snorted in a sort of indifferent way. "I'm not a normal sports girl. I don't like Baseball and Basketball and Hockeyball," she said, clearly, she did not know her sports if she thought everything was played with a ball. "But I enjoy my own sports, like climbing buildings or grabbing ahold of a car while it's still moving so I can hitch a ride," she smiled. It was her own form of extreme hitch-hiking thanks to her marvelous claws.
~~"Good, sports are boring," "I'm not a normal sports girl. I don't like Baseball and Basketball and Hockeyball,"
“hockeyball is the worst.” Venus said only mostly aware that there wasn’t a ball involved, probably.
~~"But I enjoy my own sports, like climbing buildings or grabbing ahold of a car while it's still moving so I can hitch a ride,"
“for me, throwing things as far as I can is always fun, its nice to see something disappear from sight.”
“How about you gorgeous, you got any big fears or deep dark secrets.” He smirked. “Other than me.” Venus dried him self with the towel and tossed it over his shoulder after he got the majority of the water out of his hair. Walking back to his room he threw a pair of jeans on and settled for that, they could split an outfit between the two of them. It shouldn’t be too much longer before the Chinese arrived.
The way that Abyss called it Hockeyball as well only made Fade think that it was indeed called exactly that. Although she had seen an actual hockey ball and it looked more like a hockey pancake. Still, sports were odd, there was that really weird one called...um...shuffling? Scuffing? That weird one played with brooms and ice. It was on TV once, and it was actually an Olympic sport! Who would've known? How odd indeed. He mentioned his own sport. Some form of Shotput, or whatever that was called. "What can you throw and how far?" she asked. It was like he was the giant football player and she was the little track runner.
She paused at the other than me statement and realized he was, in fact, a secret. She could not go to the Mansion and talk about her day with the giant red man, he was notoriously known for being with the Order. 'Sleeping with the enemy', that's what they call it. Then again, they wouldn't be far from the truth. "Fears? I would say that my fear is my heart just phasing through the rest of my body and dropping to the ground." Something close to that had happened at KP when Shade had punched her and she phased through it all, except her heart. It never really beat the same again. It made her realize just how afraid she was of losing an organ while phasing.
" I can throw a car further than I can hear the crash that it makes when it hits...where ever it hits. I could throw a ball out of orbit"
Venus Nodded solemly as he heard the girls fear," If you want, you could leave your heart with me." Venus said quietly into her ear, leaning over and licking the edge of her earlobe.
his teeth were about to seize on the attractive little piece of jeweled flesh. but there was a knock at the door and at the door declaring something something Chinese.
Venus let out a soft sigh into fades ear and on her neck and went to the door grabbing his wallet off the counter as he neared the door. "Hi, That was fast" Too fast... he said holding out the card. The Delivery man hadn't even seen Venus as he had cuaght sight of fade in her giant shirt before his hand was near the big read hand and what he had mistaken for a big red door. He looked at the card and then ran it through a pocket scanner hand the bags to Venus and bowed slightly as he handed him a receipt and a pen. Venus tipped well as promised. and expected he would get the same service if not better next time.
Abyss set the food out on the coffee table and then searched the wall for the Tv Panel. he pushed a button and a pannel slide left and the 42 inch tv was revealed. he grabbed the remote and set it down next to Fade's food. " if you want to pick something feel free."
Although Venus was just being playful, the thought of her heart phasing out into his hand terrified her. Of course, it was just a little cutsie "i got your heart" comment, but still, it sent a shiver down her spine. What if that happened to any of her other organs? How much trouble would she be in? Well, plenty, that was for sure. You can't survive with your stomach on the ground, or your kidney in someone's hands! Or maybe the kidney thing would be fine, she had heard of people surviving without the kidney, but she still wanted it, even if she didn't need it. Same concept as her appendix or her wisedom teeth or her tonsils, she still wanted them! Boy, there were alot of things doctors pulled out of bodies.
He got closer, evoking that seductress in her, but then the delivery man arrived. Drats. Venus paid and returned with the food while Fade sat down at the table. She took some fried rice and put it on her plate along with some beef and brocolli, although she never ate the brocolli and some sweet and sour pork. It was a good meal, or so it smelled. She took a bite a smiled. Yup, it was good food. "So then, how far can you throw a person?" she asked, making sure she didn't talk with too much food in her mouth. That would be gross. The TV was not too loud so they couldn't hear eachother, but Fade didn't mind what was on TV, she enjoyed movies, didn't know too much about shows and such.
((OOC! ACK! Abyss shouldn't be here. modding Abyss back into the Venus he should be.)
Venus didn't catch the goose bumps on her neck, or the worry on her face, if so it probably would have simply struck some odd cord with him and enticed one of his odder interests.He politely waited for Fade to Claim the food she wanted and then got about the same portions that she had, He however ate ever bit, every grain of rice and morsel of vegetation.
" Well if I was in the desert or somewhere with less obstructions I bet I could throw someone into the next state or country over. I suppose it all depends on aerodynamics., the wait of the person and other factors that I am sure would change the direction. Far enough to make them go away at the very least."
"I'm not into the violence as much as some of my brothers though, I'd much rather be right her, with you, every single time." Trying to keep her mind away from who he was and why she was supposed to thwart his every crime, He'd have to mind Jay walking with her.
((FWEEPIE! O.o oopsies. I didn't realize I did that, my baddddddd! haha, you did it too in the post before))
"How far could you throw me do you think? I only weigh like 125 lbs or something," she said, with the fullest intent of NEVER being thrown by Venus. Ouch, that would be one horrible landing, not like what dads do in the pool when they throw their kids a couple feet down and into the water. Nope, even if Fade landed in water, it would sting so much and she would probably pass out or not be able to swim to the surface by the time she stopped falling into the water.
He mentioned that his brothers were worse and it hit her. That was right! He was one of the Order! How could she trust him? She had gone against everything she told herself she would not, she had let herself down by pairing up with such a bad guy. Then again, she had not seen him do anything bad (no innuendo intended) so she had no reason to believe that. Maybe she saw him in battle, but which one of him? Surely, she did not see Venus, she must have seen one of the others fighting brutally. She tried to keep her mind off of it, but a little indication of her thought lingered on her eyebrows as they lowered a bit for a second and then rose to their normal position.
"oh to the moon or so, if you went, incorporeal would you stay in motion? and don't go getting nervous on me, the only place I might toss you is a bed. besides, if you didn't want me touching you well you've got that under control don't you? His chopsticks lifted another piece of sweet and sour goodness to his mouth.
