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.

Shawn walked over to the area that said it was for training. Humm. I could use some practice with my powers. He walked into the room and programmed the room to react the way he thought would help him the most. With the strengthening his powers and control. He set it for an easy setting, not knowing how well he would be able to fight anything that he met here and he also didn't know how well he could control his powers. The program started and he saw a big robotic thing in front of him. he started by running at it, to see what kind of things this program could do. He ran up to it and started to use some of his martial arts agianst it. To his surprise it went down; however, it got right back up. This time it started to actually do some things. The giant robot threw him across the room. He hit the wall and after a little pause to catch his breath he got back up and went at the robot again.

Daria watched from the control center, impressed with his martial arts. The system measured his body movements and his potential and gave a slight analysis of his ability.
She wasn't headmistress and didn't want to be anytime soon since she loved Tricity so much but she was doing her best to take an interest in the new students, whose mutations and personalities fascinated her.

Shawn hid behind a tree that we put there by the program and stopped using his powers. The silver that covered his sk9ing slowly moved away from his fingers and legs and stopped at his chest and lower body. His tattoo shown through with and even stronger brightness and seemed to mover in the lighting. He paused there while the robot searched the are for him. After a little pause he covered himself in the silver and snuck around behind the bot. Before the bot knew what was happening Shawn picked it up and threw it over his head.
Shawn started to get more invigorated and began to feel his powers taking off. Once the bot got up and started to attack him; Shawn ran (looking like he was running away) and found himself running up the wall. He the pushed off the wall and flew straight at the bot. He did a flying kick and made the whole atack look like something from the movies. Shawn hit the bot with a lot of force causing a deep dent in the chest of the bot. Once the bot fell down it didn't gte back up again. The hologram then shut off and Shawn caught his breath. He turned around and noticed that there was someone watching him from the controll roo0m. He smiled and bowed as if he was putting on a broadway show for an audience. As he bowed he retracted his silver so that it looked like he was wearing silver shorts and and silver tight shirt.

Daria giggled and clapped. "bravo! Mind if I give you a bit of a challenge?"
She pressed buttons on the computer (the voice commands reminded her of Mike and she couldn't handle that at the moment).
~LEVEL 1 battle simulation mode.~ the machine chimed.
The walls opened on several sides and large, heavily armored robots shuffled out, they rolled on tank-like wheels and had cannons in their centers. There were five in all and they were rather formidalble.

Shawn smiled at her, and said, "I'm always up for a challenge." He let the silver form over the rest of his body and gave a fun mischevious grin. He turned around and saw both of the robots coming from both sides. He thought they looked a lot like tanks, especially with the cannons on them. All of the sudden he ran at the closer one. The bot fired a shot and he dodged it easily. He ran up to it and punched it a time or two before the other bot turned and hit him with a cannon shot. Shawn flew away from the first bot and hit the wall very hard. He stayed there for a while and gathered up his strength and charged again. He noticed that there was a little dent in the wall, which he hoped wouldn't be permanent. The two tank bots shot at him together and he moved just in time to avoid being shot. He flew threw the air and hit the first bot right under the wheels, which made it flip over and crash into the other one. The tank bot that flipped over caught on fire and blew shrapnel everywhere which hit the other bot and wounded it severly. Shawn also was hit by a lot of the shrapnel and was thrown against the wall, again. The second bot shot at Shawn and hit him dead on. His powers were draining him to fast and he had almost no strength left. "Turn it off!" he yelled at Daria. His powers were starting to leave him and began to retract away from covering his entire body to just looking like spandex on him. "TURN IT OFF!!" he yelled again hoping she would before the bot fired again.

Daria turned the machine off immediately and teleported into the training grounds. "SHAWN!" she yelled and ran to kneel beside him. The robots were dormant now, all indication lights were off.
She slowly began to teleport the pieces of shrapnel from his body, as best she could. "Shawn? Can you hear me? Are you alright? Shawn?"

Shawn began to get back to reality when Daria was pulling the pieces out of him with her powers. "Ya, I can here you. I'll be fine." Shawn said putting a pained smile on his face. "I guess my powers aren't as strong as i thought they might be."
His powers had returned to their normal place of looking like a shirt and shorts. His tattoo glistened with sweat and fresh silver. "I've come to notice that my powers protect me from injuries. My tattoo seems to control my healing powers." He putting his hand on it and rubbing it a little. He sat there a while and caught his breath for a while. He then pushed himself up and said, "I'll be fine in a little while. I just need to relax for a little bit."

Daria bit her lip and sat cross legged on the floor not too far away.
"It's my fault. I should've known better. I'm so used to the training programs but I wasn't when I first got here. I didn't use them for a while actually." she sighed.
Her ears twitched and she nervously twiddled with her tail. "Your powers are really cool though. I haven't seen a thing like them. When did you mutate?"

"Thanks. Don't worry about me." Shawn said to her. "It first started when i was younger and was hit by a truck. The doctors said that I shouldn't have lived. Surprisingly enough I went away from the accident with a few broken bones. But when i got hit my powers protected me and covered me with the silver, which the doctors were unable to remove from me;Thankfully." Shawn said moving into a more comfortable position and facing her. "Then later on i discovered that i could control this power and have it cover my entire body whenever i want and for as long as i want. However, i've also noticed that it makes me weaker faster and takes more energy to sustain it while i'm fighting."

Daria nodded excitedly. "thats funny. I got my powers during a car accident...well...I don't know when i got them really, But that's when they manifested. I don't even remember growing the ears and tail." the cat girl laughed, still a little nervous about Shawn getting hurt.
"Any other mutants in the fam?" she asked good naturedly.

Shawn smiled at her laugh. "Nope. i'm the only one in the family. I suppose thats why they didn't like me very much before i left home. Not that im complaining. I like it here." Shawn said. He sensed a little unrest with her and said, "Don't worry about me; i'm fine."

Daria laughed. "You know, I'm not too worried about you, it's more like I'm worried about me.
"I've just started training under Tricity, you know. And ever since I've been here I've done one thing after another to get into trouble. By standards," she thought about it "I should've been kicked out two strikes ago but Tricity knows best I guess. I'm just worried about dissapointing her." She laughed again "I mess things up sometimes..." she flicked her ears cutely.

"Well not everyones perfect." Shawn admitted to her. "Usually people do things that are for reasons that only they themselves can understand. And they cant' explain to someone else why they do what they do."Shawn said to her, "especially when it comes to bending the rules." He smirked at the thought. "So, what do you do that gets you into so much trouble?" Shawn asked inquisitively.

Daria laughed. "Well..two ofthe strikes were for fighting on school grounds. The third," she giggled "was for getting frisky in the war room. Once I joined the X-men, though, I learned a little more self discipline....a little."

Shawn laughed at the last part. "A little, sounds right for a lot of people." "Just out of curiosity, did you win the fights." Shawn asked smiling and still recovering his strength. "I haven't been here long enough for any fights. But i can see that as happening to me." Shawn said musing about what might come up in the future.
