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.

All Derek could do was laugh. It was quite a stupid thing to do, but af least it made Jude burst out with joy. Mission accomplished!
>>> "Do people really call them that?"
He shrugged but his shoulders in answers, "eh, yeah . But only if you're dark-skinned." Derek smiled some and placed the bag of chocolate chip morsels on the counter top. Just then the timer went off, declaring that the food in the oven was finished.
"Finally!" Derek was so happy that they were just about ready to eat! He grabbed the cute dark red and blue spotted mittens and slipped them on. He then reached into the oven and pulled out the lamb. "This looks so good!" Derek placed it on the stove and took a step back.

"It's my pleasure," Derek smiled at Artair, then looked at Xavia, and finally at the food. He could feel his mouth start to water all over again.
"You did?!" Derek asked in exclamation as he made his way over to the food and started to put some on his plate. Of course having a key to Xavia's home, he was able to just waltz in and either cook for Mama and little Delilah or vis versa. Honestly, he felt closer to them than he did his other family. Though, this wasn't the thread for his familial issues. He then turned his head to watch Xavia leave to get some air. After she was gone, he turned his attention to Artair.
"...You know what we have to do that right? No one messes with my herd and gets away from it," Derek's warm brown eyes turned dangerous before going back to normal. With a shake of his head, he started to stuff his mouth full of Hungarian food.

Derek had no idea where Leon went. The Mansion looked for him after the survival challenge and was currently looking for him. The dark skinned mutant took it upon himself to go and find the manticore-like mutant himself. He first decided to look around in Central Park and when he couldn't find him, he decided that it would be best to search after he was able to sit down and gather his thoughts.
The twenty-year-old mutant entered a bar and sat down at one of the tables. He would be lying if he said that he didn't feel responsible for the loss of Leon. He was his partner after all. Unfortunately, Derek couldn't drink so he tried to drown his worries in wings and carbonated beverages. After he ordered, he scanned the surroundings. Derek was about to look back down at the table cloth when he saw red. Leon. Derek immediately got up from his seat and rushed to the edge of the bar.
"L-Leon?! Is that you?!"

"I am...But I have been in the states for a few years now. How about you? Were you born in New York?"
"Ah,"[/url] Derek nodded his head slowly. He wondered what city she was from. Peterburg? Moscow? "Oh, no. I'm from North Carolina. It's south from here," he answered with a smile on his face.
"What city are you from in Russia?" Derek asked, glancing around at the area around them, then back at Sveta.

>> "Erotic love, huh? Dear Derek, have I been less than chaste?"
Derek's face immediately came red, "W-wha?! N-no! I mean, yes! You have! You're just..." Derek groaned and shook his head. God, he hated when he became flustered. Whenever Derek got like that, he babbled like an idiot. "Just forget I said anythin'." He had to admit though that Mercury's "shocked" face was rather cute.
>> "Thanking me now? But we've all but just begun!"
"I know, but still. You could've said no." Derek shrugged his shoulders coyly and looked out the window. He chewed nervously on his bottom lip and studied the scenery that passed. As he did this, his hand slowly started to caress Mercury's hand.

>> "I’ll be honest, I figured you lived at the zoo rather than some sh*tty apartment building down the street.”
The darker skinned mutant rolled his eyes at the Stalker's assumption. "I know you ain't tryna play me, Stalker." Primal snorted and took out his phone. He scrolled through his phone to see what were some nearby good quality bar that had decent wings. Dressed normally, Primal got a lot less attention from the people they walked passed on the street. Of course there were still some that studied his body -- front and back-- but their attention was more focused on his attractive features instead of his clothes.
"Anyway, there's a bar up here that sells shots in gummy glasses," Primal mumbled as he scrolled through the different reviews. After making the decision, he picked his phone and kept walking down the street. The mutant wished that he was able to just dip and leave the tracking mutant in his dust, but he knew that it wouldn't end the way he wanted it to.
They walked a few more blocks before the bar that Primal wanted to go to came into view. He opened the door and walked through first, then headed to the bar. It was a fairly nice bar with black chairs, dark purple table clothes and white candles in the middle.
"Two blackberry brew for me," he ordered, "and...boneless wings. Chipotle."

Derek smiled at that. He didn't know why, but someone who he wasn't close with telling him how good he was at something made him happy. It made him feel like he was actually doing something and not just taking up space. He was actually contributing to the Haven cause.
"Well, I want to use it to make the world a better place. I want to use it for somethin' that's greater for myself, Michael." Then he stared at the man for a bit longer. Had he been mistaken? Michael was clearly Virtus instead of Mars. "Well, uh, I think I'm done gettin' my ass handed to me for a day," Derek offered Michael a smile and handshake. "Thank ya so much for trainin' me, Ranger. It really paid off," After the handshake, Derek walked back to his black duffle bag and slung it over his shoulder. He knew that he would be feeling sore in the morning, that was okay with Derek. That meant he did exercise. With a turn of his head, he waved goodbye to Michael before disappearing out of the room.

Derek studied her face for a bit before sighing and looking down at his food, then back up at Xavia, "like I said, we'll get it taken care of ." The ebony mutant cleared his throat and continued eating.
After they were finished, Xavia and Derek exited the restaurant and took Xavia home.

Derek chucked and shook his head, "sorry, sorry, 'high energy'." The mutant smiled more, liking the slap to his chest. Derek then responded to his second question, "and Cupid is depicted as a baby because he's considered one of the Erotes of Venus. He's a very handsome man. Son of the god Mars and Venus," Derek loved talking about mythology and he loved even more telling other people, "he's also the god of Erotic love and desire. He's married to the goddess of soul, Psyche."
"Alright," Derek smiled and touched his hand. He could feel his face get hot. "Thank you for goin' on a date with me, Mercury."

"Dat's right...And since Haven has no government funding, we have to find things out the hard way... by being charming, asking questions, and looking like we are up to no suspicious things."[/color]
Derek smirked and nodded his head, "awesome. It's my favorite thing to do." It sort of was Derek's favorite thing to do. He enjoyed the rush of doing missions and other Havenite activities. as they continued to walk, Derek decided that it would be a smart idea to get to know his current partner.
"So, Sveta, I get the feelin' that you might be from Russia?"

”I find that unlikely.” He nodded, slowly pulling the tranquilizer gun back into its holster. ”Lead the way.”
Primal snorted in response and did just that.
The walk to his apartment wasn't long. Of course, he got stares by what he was wearing, but Primal was used to that by now. There was a reason for it and that was to ward off anyone who was foolish enough to mess with him. Of course, that didn't work with Mister Smokey over beside him. When they came to his apartment building, Primal turned to look at Stalker, "you stay yo ass down here. You don't need to know what room I stay on." And with that, he headed inside and up the stairs.
A few minutes later, Primal came back down in a pair of black jeans, a muscle shirt with a burnt orange paw print in the center and tan Timberlands.
"Ready?" Primal asked. He even put on some cologne that made him smell like fresh cedar wood.

A grin came to Primal's face when he noticed the delay in Stalker. He knew by the look on his face that contained his contemplation. After all, it was one beer. And maybe some wings, too. Boneless wings; those were the best and pretty damn good. Then he'll have to swing by the butcher and get a large cow's leg for Oya and Shaka. On top of that, he had to get up six the next morning for his eight o'clock equine anatomy and physiology lab. Ugh, so much to do on such a small amount of time. Life just seemed too damn busy now and days. He longed for the days of undergrad.
Primal snapped back into focus when Stalker spoke again,
>> ”One beer,”
There was a surprised look on slightly shorter mutant's face. He actually agreed to a beer. "Oh?"
>> ”And you’re putting on pants. No one’s going to serve you dressed like that."
The African American mutant was ready to say something gutter worthy when Stalker shut him down.
>> "And I didn't mean like that."
"You're no fun, Stalker," Primal pursed his lips before heading toward the clearing. He clicked his tongue to signal for Shaka and Oya to stay where they were and for them to behave themselves. The last thing he wanted to was for them to get tranquilized or worse, "we'll make a stop at my apartment before we go to a bar. Then afterwards you can impale me if anything you see fit." He paused and have Stalker a playful grin, "and I didn't mean like that."

Derek was a bit sad that his fellow cuddler didn't respond to his mumbled comment. He was about to say it again when he felt Aleksandr's tail curl up more around his leg. This was a clear sign that the naga-like mutant was enjoying the touching they were doing. Most likely because of the exothermic heat he was giving off. Derek moved his hand down further until it reached the five inches into where his scales began.
"This movie is inter..." The dark skinned mutant stopped talking when Aleksandr shifted. He wasn't able to speak as the serpent moved on top of him. Derek's eyes were wide and full of surprise and arousal, "...estin'." Derek bit his lip and studied Aleksandr's face.
"Is not such a bad way for the night to go, yes?"
"Yeah," Derek propped himself up on his elbows and looked into his yellow eyes. Without saying much, he pressed his lips against Aleksandr's. He moved his hands to brush up against his arms. This certainly wasn't planned, but damn did he want his.

"You're pretty sharp yourself,
"Thank you," Derek blushed and looked down at his shoes, then back up at Mercury's face.
[/i]"And I absolutely am. I hope you enjoy the place I have in mind."[/i]
I'm sure with you, I'll enjoy it. By what I've learned about you, you're very high maintance," he chuckled and looked back over his shoulder at the town car, then back at Mercury. He wanted to make sure that it was still there. The kiss to Derek's hand made the darker skinned mutant blush. "...Maybe you're parents should've named you 'Cupid'."
"Which way to your car, m'dear?"
Derek smiled and nodded his head, "this way," he jerked his head over his shoulder and turned around. He led him to the black towncar and opened the door for Mercur, "good sir," the dark skinned tried his hardest not to let his eyes dip lower than Mercury's belt. Once he was inside the car, Derek jogged to the other side of the town car and got in. He looked over at Mercury and smiled, "I'm very excited."

”Who I am doesn’t matter...What does is that you need to make a choice. You have two options here,”
Yeah, Primal was sure that Stalker had two options. Two options that he wasn't going to like.
”Either you play nice and I implant his tracker without a fuss…Or I knock your butt out and implant it anyway...up to you."
"Hm," Primal looked up and started to rub his chin as if he was actually thinking of which one to choose from. Being knocked out would cause his hyenas to burst from the brush and attack Stalker. Him giving in would show weakness. "Let's see, how about this." Primal cleared his throat, "you and I get beers and I'll take the implant. You did call me cute after all."
