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.

Voltaire wasn't very impressed with the robots that entered the square. He thought that 3 robots vs 10 mutants would make it almost to easy. "But no time to underestimate your opponent" He thought. He stepped forward towared one of the stalkerbots and cracked his fingers as he made them into a fist. His arms started glowing with red electricity shooting over them and he cracked his neck by twisting it to the right. "And now i only need to make a quick remark to get its attention" he thought. He grinded his teeth and yelled: "He tinman, I'm sending you back to OZ..... In pieces."

Kami watched from his rooftop position as Voltaire closed on the Stalker. As he did he began to gather energy, concentration it in the palms of his hands. In the calm before the combat he would get no batter time to gether a large amount of energy. He hoped to create a large enough blast to give the machine pause for thought.
Now all he had to do was wait for Voltaire to complately captivate the Stalker's attention.
The arrival of the Stalkers into the area sent a chill down Ali's spin. She started having flash backs of the raid at the mansion. Those things were everywhere it seemed. Now here they were trying to fight those monstrosities. At least they had more numbers and lots of different talents to use against the machines.
Hearing Voltaire call out to one of the robots and then seeing the guy walking up to the robot all Ali could do was shake her head. Was he wanting to die?
As the plasma shot came towards him, Voltaire held out both hands towards the oncoming shot as if he wanted to stop it with his bare hands. He charged his hands with allot of energy and created a shield between him and the shot. On impact Voltaire was pushed back a couple of meters, destroying the pavement with his feet as he was pushed back. When he came to a hold, the plasma beam was still charging forward into the shield. With great efford, Voltaire pushed the beam upwards making it vanish into the sky. His hand where steaming from the heat as he stood up straight. "Is that is?" He asked while breathing heavy. After that he dashed towards the stalker bot trying to deliver one of his charged blows.

Kami had gathered a very large energy ball by the time Voltaire had deflected the robots attack. Before Voltaire charged for his counter attack Kami fired the blast moments before stepping off the rooftop.
Putting his arms by his sides, palm downwards he loosed a stream of energy the haulted his descent inches above the ground. Landing lightly on his feet he began to charge another energy ball as he focused on his adversary.
As a rapid fire came towards him, Voltaire saw no other way then to stop charging and try to avoid being hit. He dodged the first shot to find himself stairing into the second shot that the stalker fired. Voltaire saw no other option then to try and block the remainder of the laser by putting up a shield of energy. He forced allot of energy to his arms and as a result allot of red electricity shot across his arms. He held his arms in front of him as a desperate attempt to block the shots. He could barely hold his shield up and with every shot he blocked, he was pushed back a meter grinding away trough the street, leaving a crater at his feet. This took alot out of Voltaire as he was breathing heavely. "That is it" He said out loud as he removed his coat, showing his control suit. He took of his control suit too and threw it backwards. "The gloves are off" He said as his entire body started to glow with red electric currents and his eyes turned blood red.

Watching the monstrous robot avoid Kami's shot as well as keeping Voltaire at bay made Ali feel a bit uneasy. Again she remembered seeing a couple of bots similar to this one at the mansion raid but she never saw them use their weapons. Instead they were just running around catching mutants with their wicked looking claws.
Clenching her fists Ali stepped out of her hiding place amongst the vending machines. She faced towards the robot and concentrated. She focused on the asphalt beneath the bot. maybe if she could heat up the street enough to become like a gooey puddle it might slow the thing down from moving at least.
Her eyes flashed and she focused on on her target. The street began to heat up as vapors swirled up into the air. More and more vapor swirls drifted into the air as the asphalt continued to heat up. Slowly it began to soften and then it started to liquify into tar.
"Maybe that'll slow it down." she said over the comms.
Kami watch the machine avoid his attack and resume its assault on Voltair. Raven Fire tried to slow it by heating the floor while Voltair defended himself. In an effort to pull the Stalker's focus from Voltair and keep it with the area of heated ground Kami went into action.
Firing a stream of energy from his feet Kami launched himself up and over, landing on the opposite side of the Stalker from Voltair. Once on the ground he unleashed a furious volley of energy blasts. Hopefully he could slow the Stalker down as it changed target long enough for Raven Fire's plan to work.
