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.

"Oh, and here i thought we were going to fight man to man, face to face, but if you wanna do this dark, then by all means let me oblige you." Orion sneered as his eyes and hands smoked. Ire could see the familiar red eyes glowing through the shadows. Orion tossed the pipe high into the air and it came down with a thud sticking out of a trash can lid behind him. Archon disapeared backtoward the car but still in inbe of sight in case his master called for his help.

Ire knew what was to come, if he didn't charge Orion now he would be at a loss. Making a mad dash at the tower of a man Ire released his hold on the shadows and came in for a right handed strike to the ribs.
Catching Orion offguard he was only able to deflect it partially instead of stop it cold by one hand as he wanted. Even as he felt the blow, he side stepped and brought his right knee up fast toward Ires hunched form. Orion wondered briefly if the centuries Ire had spent wherever he was had caused him to become weaker, but judging by the strike that he had deflected this was luckily not the case.
Smiling Orion just leapt from the ground high over Ires head and called out as he came down foot first to strike. "Hows your defenses!?" Orion always knew Ire was faster than he but Orion had a few things instore for Ire that he didnt used to have in the Old days.

Planting a hand on the ground where Orion previously stood Ire sprung out of the way of the descending man. He was pleased to see that Orion hadn’t let time weaken him. However Ire had a few things left to remind Orion about. As Orion landed Ire came in with an aerial kick of his own directed to the midsection.
Orion landed with a heavy thud as he always did. The small chains on his riding boots jingled. He landed but he kept shrinking down in an attempt to dive below the incoming shot headed toward his stomach. He wasnt quite quick enough however as he caught the shot in the chest. but thats where Orion preferred to catch hits anyway. This extra force caused him to fall backward. He rolled quickly to his feet and launched his massive frame at Ire. This was to be a full body tackle. If he caught Ire with it it would be in his advantage and he could end the fight right here.

Ire was in trouble now, Orion was too close already to dodge the tackle completely. Moving to the side as much as possible Ire readied himself for the impact to come. The charge, though not a full hit, sent Ire spinning of a ways. He was however able to see Orion lumber off into the distance which was crucial.
"Well done my friend, well done indeed."
Reaching up to the clasp on the collar of the cloak Ire unhooked it letting it fall to the damp ground. He now stood in his battle leather and was no longer hindered by the wind resistance that the cloak offered.
"Now then lets try this again."
Ire took off running in a zigzag fashion to keep Orion on his guard. Though it was not dark it was still dim and this worked to his advantage as he came up upon Orion for a feign right arm strike followed by a spinning kick toward Orion’s calf.
Ire was still quick and at this point it was too late for Orion to counter attack so he just sank to the ground putting all his weight on that leg. This reinforced the leg to tremendous strength. Orions upperbody poised right above the calf in case his leg did get knocked out from under him hed just use his body to flatten Ire to the pavement. A grin creased Orions face as he watched the blow com in fast and hard.
This blow Orion did not see coming, and Ires speed paid off. It connected solidly with a resounding thump that reverberated in Orions head. A quick grunt came out of his mouth, then.
"Oh yea! that felt good, man." he exclaimed as he picked up Ires foot which had been left there and heaved upwards.
*chaos had came to a stop as he stared in amazment... as he had finally found orion, he found the behemoth fighting another person....this person was definatly the one responsible for the feeling he had felt earlier...and if that was the case, orion probably felt it too.....* " But who is he......?"

Falling backward into a back hand spring something caught Ire attention. There was someone else near by, someone of considerable power. Once his feet were planted he held out a hand to Orion to signify a yield.
"He is an old friend of mine. Not quite as old as you but still Ive known him the same amount of 'Time'. CHAOS! come here. I want you to meet a friend of mine from long long ago." Orion also called Archon in from the street. The Wolf and Chaos started to make their way toward the duo.
*chaos he walked twords orion, archon had obviously not cared as much that he was right next to him but never the less they made there way twords orion.......a glare came across chaos's eyes as they met ire's ......he could tell this guy was strong and fast....he new he was good*
