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.

Jorge
Jorge peered around the scene. It was a complete and utter madhouse already. The wagons had come and were already arresting the mutants behind this whole mess while the rest of the team began to investigate the team. It would quickly be proven that Jorge’s story of what occurred here panned out and, hopefully, Carry was not going to get punished for getting involved in a police investigation. Though the police took help from people like the X-men, random vigilantes were not the most welcome.
But a glance at Carrick proved that the boy was going to be carrying battle scars away from this that should prove to be punishment enough. As a matter of fact, Jorge attempted to find the young boy but he was more than likely still being fussed over by the EMTs. After all, Carry had been through a lot for the evening. Jorge just hoped that he would be okay.
>> “Please, sir, do you know where Carrick is? He has wings and a tail. Something must have happened to him.”
He paused as he passed one of the police cars. He knew that voice; it was Elizabeth. He perked up and looked into the car to see that she was still trying to get help from one of the officers. The man sadly had no information about her boyfriend. Jorge, though, stepped up and gave them both a friendly nod.
“I got it George,” he said to the officer. “Why don’t you check with the EMTs to see how the boy is doing? He should be around her somewhere.”
“Yes sir,” the younger officer said with a nod and stepped away.
Jorge turned back to Liz and gave her a warm smile.
“How’re you holding up? I haven’t seen Carrick yet, but I’m sure he is fine,” he said as gently as possible. “They’ll take good care of him.”

Through the blackness of the smoke and the heat of the fire he could seeing the sleeping form of Kate, the young fire elemental that he had met ages ago. The young woman was sleeping soundly, as if she he absolutely no idea what was going on around her room or what she was doing to the mansion itself. Jorge had raised his hands to splash her with water to wake her up, but he thought different of it. He really didn’t know how water was going to affect her, especially given her powers; it could wake her up and stop this or it could do far worse to her.
Thankfully, he didn’t have to make that decision. Just as the water elemental looked up and readied himself to send another wave of water at large blaze that was beginning to start up nearby, he suddenly saw that he was not alone in the room. Gawain had stepped out, appearing from a mirror and scooping Kate into his arms.
>> "Put the fire out Jorge, I got her."
He gave her a thumbs up. That was much better. Once he claimed the young woman and was gone, Jorge turned his full attention to the rest of the room. The blaze was still catching but now that he didn’t worry about her, he wouldn’t have to worry about holding back.
Though he hoped that she had a good dry cleaner…
Gurgling, Jorge suddenly reached out with both his watery arms and set streams and jets of water all over the room. Fires were soaked and petered out with a violet hiss. But over and over again he fire water and sent a wave through until every last bit of the blaze was gone. All that was left was a blackened room, soaking wet, and smelling to high heaven of smoke.
Jorge sighed though. At least it was over…he hoped…

The horse charged through the town and soon entered the outskirts, making his way in the direction he saw everyone else going. Neptune charged forward, hooves thundering against the ground, leaving absolutely no qualms about who it was that was coming. In this day and age presence was just as important as skill; so long as people knew who it was that was coming, that should make them think twice about doing something as stupid as all this again.
But the second that he caught sight of the dog, and was able to make out the outline on the ground (though he was at a disadvantage since he was on ground level) he did understand it enough to know that Amazons were here. He really disliked them. This was a world in which people needed to band together, not battle one another in selfishness. He really could not believe the audacity of those woman, some of which he knew before the blast happened. One or two could even be considered friends…and yet here they were, with murderers, stealing from people who had nothing…
A growl fell from his lips as he ground his teeth. Today was definitely not the day for this crap.
A tap from his heels and suddenly the horse was sprinting even faster, almost overtaking Gina’s lead. But the second that he had spied gathered group, he slowed, dismounted his horse, and sent him away. He trusted Neptune, but the last thing he wanted was for his beloved horse to die under at their hands. He was not going to all these power hungry women to catch his horse and make a meal out of it.
Once he had dismounted, Jorge placed his hand on handle of his firearm and stormed up to the scene…
>> "Listen up Amazons, This raid ends Now! leave peacefully if you want to leave at all!"
>> “Good afternoon, Here to crash the party.”[/color]
The deep voice of Abyss, mixed with that of his Deputy would have been enough to shake raiders in their boots. There was a reason that this town survived, not only because they banded together and had a strong sense of community, but because they had a damn good amount of strong people defending it. They were not going to let these women just waltz in and take whatever they wanted. Not this time and not in the limits of his town.
Hand still resting on the handle of his gun, he marched up until he was standing next to Markus, Abyss and Gina. His gaze was sharp as he watched them all intently. Most he remembered were wanted criminals from the MRC Wanted lists, other were people he either knew or never met.
Eyes narrowed as he counted them off; so far Maxine was already gone. He wondered how many more would be smart and just disappear along with her. It was then that he spotted Sveta, the only other woman he ever taught to shoot besides Gina. Great, so they had their power booster with that. That was going to make everything a whole lot more fun.
He cracked his neck to the eyed the gathered females.
“Leave , now,” he said in a growling voice. “These are not your lands and you have no right to take what never belonged to you. Leave…or face the consequences,” he said in a threatening voice. This was a whole new detective, one who’s threats had a reputation of being backed up by his actions.

The door was split open and Shin ran off to call an ambulance. It was best to let a water elemental deal with this situation. As soon as the door was open, the clouds of black smoke flew out and obstructed the officer’s view. He held up a watery hand, extinguishing the few sparks that had flew out and threatened to ignite the rest of the school. They were just small pieces of a massive blaze that was actually going on inside the room. Jorge was actually surprised by how fast that fire built up! He hoped that whoever was inside that…well…that he could actually get to them in time.
With a gurgle, the officer suddenly threw his watery body forward and squeezed through the massive crack. He flooded into the room, flowing out briefly, soaking the carpet, but reformed into his vague, humanoid shape.
Jorge was in shock at the sight.
All around, nothing but the flickering, dancing flames of fire! The blaze lapped up the walls, igniting anything that got in their path. Jorge winced as he peered through the room, looking for a source, for the owner. Was this person still alive?
It was just as he was having this thought that he paused and peered closely at the bed. There was someone still there! But…they looked completely unharmed? It was then that he recognized the girl, Kate, the young fire mutant. He had met her only a couple of times but it had been a long time. He was actually surprised that she was still here.
But there was time to have these thoughts later! For now…
Jorge jumped into action, extending his arms and sending jet after jet of water splashing against every blaze of fire that he could see. Those that were close he simply sloshed over and those that were far, he wrapped in water. The smoke of extinguished fires filled the room as he made his way to Kate. He needed to get her out of here before she choked in her sleep of smoke.

Jorge sighed with relief as he saw the flashing of emergency lights out of the corner of his eyes. Thankfully everything seemed to be subdued so it was only a matter of waiting for emergency crews to get up here and do their part. As the detective waited, he turned back to Carry to make sure that the boy was okay. He was passed out, completely knocked out cold and Jorge couldn’t blame him. At first he couldn’t believe what this boy had done, but powers evolve all the time, don’t they? Maybe it was just his time.
The roar of vehicles below were far closer now that Jorge stood up and peered over the edge. Sure enough, EMTs were bolting into the building with hopes of getting to the roof as quickly as possible. They hoisted a stretcher between them and hauled as much equipment as they could carry. Within moments Jorge turned to see the roof access being opened by a pair of officers with EMTs standing behind them. Jorge held up his badge and the team moved in to assess the situation.
It had been a long and crazy night and all Jorge wanted to do right now was climb into bed go back to sleep. But…he would make sure his friends were okay first.
***
Before long Jorge finally made it back down to ground level and saw men and women mulling arouns, checking every nook and cranny of the building. The two thugs that were apart of this gang were already being hauled away and placed under arrest while the last, the Lion, was being carefully hauled down in a stretcher, the team bustling to keep him from losing his life. He had sustained grievous enough wounds to make them worried but they fought hard.
Jorge watched as he was rolled back and looked up to see where Liz had gotten herself to. His fellow officers had probably already pulled her aside to get her statement, it was just a matter of making sure that everything was clear. But, personally, he wanted to make sure that she was okay. That was a hell of a lot she went through tonight.
Besides, soon she was going to see Carry being wheeled out in a stretcher too. He hoped the kid was alright…

*rains into the thread!*
Now this person I have only just recently started RPing with, but she has turned out to be an absolute pleasure to write for. Yesh, ladies and gentlemen, I speak of MRO's resident Queen of Darkness...Syn! She is a perfect blend of funny, witty, and terrifying and I look forward to reading her posts. If you haven't had the pleasure of RPing with her, then please, do so!
