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.

"I guess so!" She said, kicking one of the robots coming from her right side, causing it to disappear. Kilala backed up to prepare for his attack just as two more robots came at them. "Uh, hold that thought."
She swung the staff behind her into another high attack, smashing the robot down. Another prepared a lazer attack from it's eyes but she stepped to the side, putting the staff between its legs and lifting upwards. It was swept from its feet and crashed to the ground, disappearing. Kilala stood back up and prepared for Mettaliar's attack.

Mettaliar watched Kilala attack the robots and moved slowly closer. When she finished he noticed a robot coming towards him from behind. He swept low and tripped the robot untill it disappeared, then poped up and attcked Kilala with a high attack doen with his staff.
Kilala hadn't seen the robot go down, as Mettaliar finished with the attack and his sudden turn to come at her was a surprise. She quickly put the staff up to block the strike at the last second, but fell down from the force she wasn't prepared for. Using the momentum of falling, Kilala pulled Mettaliar's weight forward and flipped him backward, just as another robot tried to come down on her. She put her staff up to block the robot's attack as she still lay on her back.

Metaliar was thrown forward by surprise and was able to catch his curseing. As he flipped he tucked his body in and turned more and caught himself and stood up. When he turned around he saw the robot attacking Kilala. He sighed and slowly came over, when he noticed another robot behind him. He swung his staff and knocked the robot behind him out, then used his momentum and jumped and did a jumping roundhouse the the back of the other robots head, makeing it disappear as well. He backed up and let Kilala get up.

Mettaliar saw two robots coming at him from oppisite directions. "I trained on my own and taught myself." He jump at robot and swung at it and made it disappear, then stabbed at the other one's abdomen and it disappeared. "And you?"
Kilala answered to him like she answered to everyone else...with some partial truth. "At a dojo in Japan since I was young. I've been training ever since then. I co-owned a dojo in the City a little while ago," she said, trailing off at the end and swallowing hard to hold back her emotion. "So, I'm trained in a lot of different types of arts."

"Mettliar swipped away another robot and glanced at her. "Really now? Quite interesting. Not surprising either. You fight very well." Hmm... there's probrobly more to her story. Oh well, it's not like she's the only one who would hold things back
"Well thanks. I'm gonna grab something to eat as I haven't had a bite all day. It was great sparring with you," she said, turning on the lights which automatically ended the simulation. "Maybe we can again some time?"

Mettaliar closed his eyes and sighed. "Yes, we may spar another day. Farewell, you have faught well." Mettaliar the went to the spot on the wall in which he was medidtating before Kilala came in and closed his eyes. Then he wiped his forehead and felt a lot of sweat. Damn, she's good. he thought as he continued to meditate.

Mettaliar sat down and closed his eyes, wondering whether to leave as well or turn the machine on... or even wait to see if anyone chellenged him again.
