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.

Kesuk felt the the hand on his hip and then a sudden point on the other side. Kesuk knew it was Jason but didnt expect the remark he was going to make next.
Look here buddy I aint here for you to be my daddy or my big brother. I don’t need you to try and take care of me cause it aint needed. So what I need from you is to just take care of your self cause your help is neither wanted or needed. Got that pretty boy?” He had said. Kesuk was just fed up with this guy and wanted to let that guy hit him with the bat, or maybe even had the bolt of lightning hit him. Kesuk turned around looked him in the face and began to talk.
"Why dont you just get over your self and quite whining and crying about having a daddy or not. Who cares if you had a sucky childhood that was the past, this is the present. And right now were doing an excersise on teamwork. So how about you quite trying to keep the bad boy act and help me out!" he started to say in a calm voice but went up to a yell.
Just then the inside of the house became an instant inferno. The smoke was blinding everyone and the heat was baking them alive. Kesuk took his attention off of Jason and ran toward the girls to see if they were alright, but before he reached them he had heard Nika yell out "I'm making a hole! Everyone this way!"
Kesuk panicked as he had seen her run to the army of feet. But suddenly they was a huge thud and a crashing noise. Imedialty after he had heard the sound of shattering glass and Nika yelling out in pain. Kesek tried to run to her but couldnt see her, if only he could get rid of the fire. I can make it rain, duh, come on Kesuk hurry it up he thought to himself. Once again Kesuk's eyes turned icy blue and his hair began to fly up and it immediatly began to rain with such ferocity it could have filled up a public sized pool. The fire was quickly drenched and put out, and Kesuk ran to Nika's side he layed next to her see scratches and cuts and he kneeled down and kissed her quickly on the cheek and whispered "sorry for the rain sweety" and picked her up and made his way back to the exit of the house.

Iris couldn’t see too much through the smoke; her eyes had begun to burn and tear. But she did a blur of white charge the door. And she heard the crash, and Nika’s cry. She crawled toward the door as quick as she could, trying to keep below the worst of the smoke, muttering to herself as she went.
<“Not enough moisture here to water a flower. What I wouldn’t give for a rainstorm.”>[/b]
As if on cue, down came the rain, enough to flood them out. Iris concentrated on keeping the water from actually touching her; she needed to stay dry so she wouldn’t slip. Instead the excess rain formed a curtain around her as she headed for the door, unconsciously dragging a rather large blob of it behind her. Seeing Kesuk beat her through the door, she paused to look back at Jason. She didn't completely understand his mutation, and to her, the sight of him bleeding meant a bad wound. Worry for her teammate warred with worry for him as well. She didn’t completely buy the ‘Tough Guy’ attitude.
Even though it wasn't a real mirror it sure as heck felt like it should've been. Nika's body felt like it had cuts and pieces of glass stuck in her. Next thing she knew there was water everywhere. She hated getting wet but she didn't want to be burned alive and so she kept her comments to herself.
Kesuk was at her side moments later appologizing for the water and picking her up and taking the poor cat girl outside. As he set her down on the ground she looked up at him. "Thanks Kesuk but what about Iris and Jason?"

OOC: Sorry everybody I had to go out the other day at like the last minute to qual in my Bradley that good ol army stuff. So yeah sorry for not being here im back now.
Jason just stood there as Kesuk gave him a little life lessen. Jason just wanted to hit him in his jaw to shoot him up but there was another treat to worry about. The sound of something falling in the air was right above the four of them in the kitchen. Everybody took cover as the roof caved in and there were flames all around them. But with in seconds everything was changing Jason couldn’t really get a grasp on the situation and wasn’t liking it one bit. First he saw feet at a door way but couldn’t get up to do anything something had landed on him and had him pinned to the ground. Then he saw Nika running at the door making here own exit through all the men that stood in her way. But no sooner had she crashed through the door did it start to rain… in the house Jason thought to him self must have been Mr. Sunshine. The only person Jason didn’t see make it out was Ira. But she seemed to take care of her self pretty good so it wasn’t much of a worry. Just then Jason started to push himself of the ground. Stumbling out the door Jason stood in the rain. All the ash and dirt was running off of Jason’s body.
“Umm… What the hell are all yall looking at.?” Jason asked as he looked at everybody when he walked out the house. Jason felt a little different he felt a little more hot headed and out of control then what he usually was. Jason’s previous human look wasn’t the same no more. Jason’s mutant ability had kicked it from all the cuts he got well in the house and about sixty-five percent of Jason’s body was now a jagged metallic look. Jason just looked at the other 3 with a evil grin on his face and just asked “What’s next?

<"Guess he didn't hear me,"> Iris thought as Jason pushed his way out of the house. She followed, looking for signs of Nika and Kesuk along the way. She breathed a sigh of relief as she saw them outside, and saw that Nika was sitting up and looking around, if a bit annoyed-looking at being soaked through. Thanks to her mutation Iris had avoided the soaking. Reflexively she reached out and pulled most of the moisture away from Nika and into a floating glob of water, leaving the cat-girl mostly, though not completely, dry.
She glanced at Jason, curious about the silvery....whatever it was that he was suddenly covered with. She could sense that it was liquid. Sort of. She walked over to him and tilted her head.
"What is that stuff?" She reached out to poke his shoulder, curiosity overruling caution.
Her head snapped around as a loud creaking sounded from behind the group. The house had had enough. It groaned and shuddered, and completely collapsed, blowing dust and grit over the foursome. Iris coughed and turned away. Her eyes widened as numerous shadows began to appear all around.
"Um guys? More company's comin'!"
As if to add to the adrenaline rush, the computer suddenly anounced, "Simulation will end in two minutes."
Iris grimaced. <"I hate brawls."> She spread her arms and hands outward. The blob of water split into smaller bits. She grit her teeth and swept her arms forward toward the onslaught of Haters.
Finally Iris and Jason emerged from the house. Iris diverted some of the rain away from the young cat girl and received a smile as a thank you even though she was already wet. Her ears flipped forward as she heard the house creaking and cracking until there were a few loud snaps and the structure clumbled to the ground.
Nika stood up and carefully stretched herself just as Iris pointed out the figures surrouding the small group. She still felt the warmth of her supercharged blood pumping. So, not wanting to lose she extended her claws once more and charged the figures.
She used her boosted speed to close the distance between herself and her prey at a blinding rate. Nika pounced at a couple figures that were fairly close to each other. Lashing out with her claws she caught two men in their throats. She crushed their air ways and ripped out their throats.
OOC: Okay sorry, i had to do stuff for colleges so yah but here im am. kk?
Kesuk looked at Jason as he came out of the house, he had a metallic look about him and looked like he wanted to kill someone. Also Kesuk noticed how Iris removed the water from Nika. Boy was Kesuk relieved, maybe Nika wouldnt mind what he did now.
Suddenly Iris noticed more people coming after them. Then right after Nika sprang up and began to charge them again. Didnt she learn? Oh well she looked good doing it.Then she took out a couple of haters.
Now it was Kesuk's turn. His eyes went ice blue once again but this time he didnt lift up off the floor. Then single bolt of blue lightning came down and instanly vaporized 3 Haters. He then looked back at Jason to see what he was going to do. Was he going to confront him for there "talk" or help kesuk?

Jason just watched on as Nika and Kesuk attacked there targets. Jason was shocked and kind of impress by the way she ripped the two men apart. The site of someone’s blood always made him a little happy inside. But that was just the sick way Jason was. Then again he wasn’t all to impressed with the way Kesuk just ran and attacked leaving himself open. Jason studied Kesuk the way his eyes turned blue when he conjured up his abilities. Wondering if this was some kinda weak spot. Jason didn’t quite understand what the point of this was. He had heard of the X-Men but it wasn’t something he ever thought about being apart of so why would he have to work as a team. If the others wanted to that was completely on them. As Jason watched every move Kesuk made wishing to him self just five minutes just the two of them. Jason didn’t understand why he just didn’t like the man for nothing it was just something about him but Jason couldn’t put his finger on it. Then again Jason didn’t really care he never needed a reason to hate somebody.
Jason sat on the ground. Yes Jason sat his happy self on the ground just watching the three of them do what they felt they did so well and keep tossing some rocks in the air keeping himself amused. At no point was Jason ever going to the three of them be seriously hurt with out him making a effort to help out well two of them anyway. But from his point, he thought they had everything under control.

Even with her liquid gem making her more mellow than usual, Iris was really uncomfortable with this final all-out melee. By nature she was passive; she preferred to stay in the background, help from the sidelines. She wasn't used to using her mutation to fight, yet here she was being forced to.
<"It's just a sim,"> she kept telling herself. <" You're not really hurting anyone. It's not real."> Still, in the back of her mind, she was beginning to wonder how she would react in a real-life situation.
Thanks to Kesuk, the ground and air was soaked with water, so she had no shortage of ammunition. Nika seemed to be good at close combat, so Iris covered her. Anytime she charged someone, Iris kept the area clear around her, using the water in many ways. She swept them aside two at a time, being careful to keep the water away from Nika so she could concentrate.
She wasn't sure about her count; she thought she was up to eight, but it was hard to keep track in the dark. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jason sitting on the ground. She did a double-take. Yes, he was actually sitting, not fighting.
"Oh brother," she muttered under her breath. She reached out with a fist-sized ball of water and grabbed hold of the rocks he was playing with. Hands on her hips, she gave him a fairly exasperated look. "Enjoying yourself?"
She tossed the rocks over her shoulder. One hit the ground, while the other bounced off of a tree before connecting with one of their attacker.
The gurgling sound of the men trying to speak and breathe brought back memories of Nika's pit fighting days. She still remembered how to be vicious. When she stood up to focus on her next victim she paused for a moment. The rain wasn't landing on her. When did it stop raining? No, it's still raining but the water isn't touching her. She looked to the rest of her school mates and saw Iris. She looked like she was using her power.
Nika smiled and silently thanked Iris before turning to face her next attacker. The man had a pitch fork and he was running at Nika. He was holding the fork like a spear. Nika crouched down and waited for the man to get closer. He yelled like some savage barbarian trying to fend off a wild beast. Again Nika growled out like a mountain lion as she extended her claws.
The man lunged forward with the pitch fork hoping to strike the cat girl in her chest. However, Nika rolled to her right to dodge the attack until she was back to her feet. When she was back to her feet she pounced forward and rammer her shoulder into the guy's ribs causing him to double over and fall. Once he was on the ground Nika's claws tore him apart until he blinked out of existence.
Unfortunately she didn't see another man run up behind her. he had a shovel and it was already in motion. Nika's ears picked up the sound of someone running through the grass. She had just enough time to look and put up her left arm to block the shovel from hitting her in the head. The pain shot through her arm in a much more realistic way than she was prepared for which caused her to yell out. She fell to her side and again put up her arms to block yet another strike.

“Hey what the hell are you doing I was playing with those rocks!” Jason yelled at Iris. Jason kicked back with a smile on his face and just laughed it off. She looked kinda attractive standing there with her hands on her hips. Just as some a couple thoughts starting running through his mind about Iris he saw Nika attacking and destroy another mutant hater holding a pitchfork. It was something about the way Nika fought. As If she was experienced in this way of fighting. Just as she finished tearing apart another guy. A shovel slammed in to the back of Nika.
“HEYYY NIKA….OUCH.” He tried to yell to here, but it was to late. Nika rolled on the ground covering herself with her arms trying to give herself some more protection. Jason stood up and began to rush over there. Just as the man starting raising his arm to swing the shovel again Jason grabbed the man by the hand and with one swift motion ripped the shovel out of his hand…along with his arm. The man kinda left of a few short screams till he just faded away. Jason sat down next Nika, and looked to make sure she was still okay. A couple scratches but nothing big.
“Ah my girl, its gonna be ok. Your fine. But hey next time maybe you should slow down a little bit stop trying to impress me.” Jason said with a bit of a smile on his face. Jason stood up grabbing Nika and helping her up giving her a pat on the rear in. “Alright now, you go get um tiger.” he said with a little chuckle in his voice.

“Hey what the hell are you doing I was playing with those rocks!”
Iris rolled her eyes, and bit back a Crystal-like reply. She shook her head and turned back to the battle, just in time to see Nika get nailed. Iris' heart leapt into her throat as she headed to help. Jason beat her there by a split-second. She sighed in relief when he said she was okay.
"This is why I hate brawls," she growled quietly. The vindictive side of her emerged for a split second, and she took out her fury on two approaching figures, sweeping them aside with a wave of water and enough force to demolish a brick wall. The figures winked away almost instantly. Iris frowned and shook her head, feeling guilty at her lack of control.
Kesuk looked back at Jason as he was just sitting there. Kesuk was getting rather fustrated and wanted to once again hit him with a bolt of lightning, however he decided against it becuase it would stoop to his stubborn level, and besides by the looks of it Iris took care of him.
Next, Kesuk couldnt believe how ferocious Nika was. He guessed she got the experience from the same place she got those scars. However Kesuk couldnt help what happened next. Kesuk was concentrating on anihalating as much people as possibe becuase he would need all the points possible becuase he was going to fail the team work section, while a farmer hit Nika with a shovel, and was about to again but to his relief Jason got there in time. At least he was good for something, Kesuk thought. But then Kesuk had seen Jason 'pat' Nika on the rear, this infuriated Kesuk. Suddenly Kesuk lost control and began to hover 10 feet off the floor. His eyes went clear ice blue, and the wind speed began to pick up. Kesuk was mad not becuase of the 'pat' but the whole thing and how Jason did it deliberitly. Suddenly it was raining even harder and the wind was blowing so hard the nearby windmills spun out of control crashing into the floor nearby, and Kesuk hair was flying in utter chaos and his shirt ripped off and flew into the horizon. Then a few crackles of lighting were heard threw the air and Kesuk yelled " Jason im tired of your childish games. you do these things on purpose to get me mad, and you act like a stuborn baby who is crying to be held. So if your not working with me, its against me!" A blue bolt of lightning decended from the sky at a blinding speed as it branched off in the sky to light up the whole night . It was about 20 feet from Jason then Kesuk heard
"Simulation Over!"
The bolt disapeared as quickly as it came and Kesuk slowly floated to the floor and collapsed on the danger room floor. The cool metal floor was soothing on his bare chest, becuase Kesuk was very heated. Kesuk HAD to ger his powers under control!
Both Jason and Iris ran over to check on Nika after getting smashed by the shovel. Jason patted her butt as he ushered the girl to get back up and fight. She might've done just that accept Kesuk blew a fuze and yelled at Jason. She watched him start getting ready to use his powers as the sky flashed with lightning and he began to float. A lightning bolt started to strike down towards Jason just when the simulation ended.
The fields and farm house all disappeared and the room returned to it's normal appearance. Nika took a deep breath as she started to calm down. She looked at Iris, Kesuk and then Jason. She felt herself getting really weak. Her adrenaline was wearing off and the exertion on her body was setting in. She tried to play it off with one of her cheery comments. "Wow! That was..." Nika's eyes rolled back in her head and she collapsed on the cold hard floor motionless.

Jason looked up in the air looking at the sky getting darker and darker. Kesuk’s feet started to leave the ground and Jason new he did something to get things really moving now. Jason stood there with his fist balled up ready to bring the fight to Kesuk. Just as it looked like Kesuk was getting ready to make his first move the simulation was over and Kesuk drifted back to the ground.
“Come on now, you expect to scare me with a little light show? You gotta come a bit better then that weather man.” Jason said shouting in Kesuk’s direction. Just then as Nika began to talk she feel to the ground. Unfortunately Jason didn’t have Nika’s cat like reflexes so he looked over and watched her fall to the ground. Kneeling to her side Jason picked her up in his arms carried her over to a table. On the way to the table Jason’s arms start to shake she began to get heavier and heavier to him. As Nika left his arms Jason turned to Kesuk.
“Man what’s your problem? If your gonna do something then do it. Cause I aint gonna be pulling your wait around here. It should be you helping this woman out since you wanna fight over her. Damn you something else. This is what the second time in less then 10 minutes I was the one helping her well you was worried about me. Weather boy, you’re a damn shame.”
Just then Jason’s arms started to look as if they were once again alive as the blood started dripping from his arms and on to the floor. Jason metallic arms were now gone and all that was left was large cuts across his body looking like he was just in a terrific accident. “Damn anybody got a band aid?” Jason asked.
