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.

Mettalair began walking down the street, wearing his usual attire. He decided to find a park or something, probably Central Park, to relax. The mansion was always filled with people, and with Mettaliar's infamous shyness, he felt uncomfortable at times. So knowing that he would be able to walk around the street on his own, he tried to find somewhere to meditate and practice controling his mutation. He finally saw Central Park and entered, yet stood in place after a while seeing so many other people there.
Maybe I should find another place to relax he thought to himself. With that, he turned and left. Across the street he saw a small pizza parlor. Being a bit hungry and knowing he had a bit of cash, he decided to have a bite to eat before heading back to the mansion.
He walked in and sighed as there were only a few people there. He walked up to the couinter and ordered a slice. The guy said about 5 minutes so Mettaliar sat down at a table to wait. He pulled out a folded piece of paper and looked at it. Someday he thought.
After her succesful capture of the girl Syn felt a little hungry. Walking around for a bit she found a nice little pizza shop. The aroma was wonderful and made her stomach grumble from hunger. Walking in she looked up at the menu and ordered a slice of pepperoni and an iced tea.
Turning back to look for a seat Syn noticed therweren't many people in this place. What would you expect for it being a small place anyways. There was one that caught her eye though. A sort of big looking guy dressed all in black. One of Syn's favorite colors. She walked over to him. "You waiting for someone or can I join you? My name is Syn by the way. What's yours?"

Mettaliar heard the new stranger come up to his table as he immediatly put the piece of paper in a pocket of his jacket, surprised a bit. He looked at the newcomer, a girl. Mettaliar tried to put on a welcoming half smile. Oh boy, hopefully I won't embarrass myself. he thought to himself.
"Oh... uh.. hi. Sure, you can sit there, I'm not with anyone here right now. And hi Syn, then names Mettaliar." he greeted. He didn't know what to do. Being kind was usually never a bad thing. Well... at least 99% percent of the time. As he was thinking this, he came to reality to realize he was blushing a bit. Shit. he thought to himself.
Syn smiled and sat down across form Mettaliar. "That's an interesting name you have. By the way I like the color you picked to wear." leaning back a bit she showed off her tight black shirt with the skull on the chest. "I like that color too." She looked around at the other people in the dining area. Most seemed to be occupied with their company or reading a newspaper or even talking on their cell phone as one girl was doing.
The crafty girl got up and moved over next to her new aquintance and sat in the chair next to him. While she was in the transition of changing seats she began releasing her pheromones to put this Mettaliar fellow in a more agreeable mood. "You don't mind if i sit here instead do you?"

Mettaliar nodded and noticed her shirt. "It's a very nice shirt." He smiles a bit and noticed her looking around the pizza place. It was a very small place and quiet as well. Mettaliar leaned back in his chair before fixing his hair over his eye. Oops, gotta pay attention to that now. he thought.
Than he noticed Syn getting up and moving closer, sitting in the chair next to him. During this time Mettaliar felt... something. He shook his head and didn't think about it, as he tilted his head as Syn grew closer. He naturally moved his chair a bit away. He wasn't scared of this girl. It's just that she was... a girl. Probably Mettaliar biggest weakness. He didn't wanna give himself a bad impression, however, so he never objected to her moving.
"No, go right ahead. It's fine." he responded. He quickly cracked his neck and continued to look around the place.
She noticed Mettaliar react a little bit to her power. She also noticed him move over a little bit. This second gesture seemed more like something with his personality more than her power. "Are you ok? You seem rather shy." Just then they called up a couple orders. One was Mettaliar's and the other was Syn's. "Did you order something? If so I'll go get it for you."
Getting up she went up to the counter and asked the man if the second order was for the guy in black sitting down. The man nodded and she smiled and said thanks as she picked up the orders and walked back to the table. She sat her tray down in front of where she was sitting. Then she moved around close to mettaliar and sat his tray down infront of him.
Just as she set the tray down with her left hand; her right had slipped into her pocket and grasped her tazer. She jabbed Mettaliar in the back of the neck just as she had done to the girl earlier. The voltage snapped repeatedly until the poor guy slumped over onto the table. "I don't know if you're a mutant but you're gonna have to do big guy." With that Syn draped Mettaliars left arm over her shoulders and using her impressive strength lifted him up and carried him outside. Once again a van came up to where she was and two more men stepped out and took Mettaliar into the van. Syn then got into the back with him as they went to KP.

Mettaliar listened to Syn talk and offer to get their orders. He didn't wanna seem too lazy, yet before he could answer, Syn had already left. Mettaliar blushed a bit and looked around on the place before seeing her come back with a tray of the pizza. He smiled and took the ray she gave for him. "Thank you." he said quietly.
He picked up the pizza, and was about to take that first bite. Than it hit. The shock that came unexpectedly. There was no chance. Before he could say a word, he was out like a light.
