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.

Ty gulped, especially when she twisted his wrist beneath her shoe. He squirmed a little bit, not wanting to tell the truth. "Nothing, just a funny memory of my now-ex. First kiss, I caught an oven mitt to the face."
Okay so it was a lie, but it was an amusing little lie. "And this other time she blew up her pillow. Literally. Feathers everywhere." That's it, Ty, just roll with it...maybe this will work.
Or maybe it wouldn't. Ty never did fancy himself as that great of a liar.

Ty sighed. "S***f***dammit.." he grumbled, looking up at her with a face more along the lines of a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
"Fine...I was gunna steal your jacket for payback, I got stuck, and now here I am, flat on my back in **** Creek. Fell on my back, knocked me a little loopy and I remembered something that made me smile, and now my head is going to explode...happy now?" he groaned, his headache really starting to pulse now.

Ty didn't notice the girl, nor did he notice the door close. But when he felt something on his wrist, his eyes slowly opened to see...
"Oh ****" he grumbled, his face turning pink and his eyes growing wide. He'd been caught. Doing something so stupid, so simple...he should have gotten away but he didn't. He started to think he was losing his touch as he began to struggle with the jacket once more. He sighed, laying back in defeat. He stayed silent, shamefully looking up at the ceiling, his arm to restrained to even sweep her leg.

Ty was in a mood for vengeance. After a few days of watching that...that...girl...that pissed him off so bad a couple of nights ago, he finally had everything thought out. Her room wasn't far from his, and she seemed to like this particular leather jacket, which he was sure would fit him. He needed a new leather jacket, and what better way for revenge? Finally, the redhead's moment came to strike. Alli had left her room for some reason, and she didn't have her jacket.
Haha....quietly, he made his way down the hall, wearing his black shirt with the green guitar on it(okay sure his ex gave it to him but it was still his favorite shirt.) Oh man, this was too easy. He easily snatched up the jacket and a nearby wallet, checking it for money. Oh yeah...vengeance was oh so sweet. He pocketed the wallet, then tried on the jacket. And...
Okay it was smaller than he'd originally thought. Too small. He started to take it off but...okay it was way smaller than he thought. His shoulders were too broad, and now it was stuck. (Though the bottom was just above his waistline, which was alright.)
He struggled his way out of it, but to no avail. Eventually, the poor kid had to take off his gloves to try it that way. This, was his second big mistake. His palm touched the leather, and as soon as it did...
~This jacket was apparently old. Scenes from high school, then some of college before she apparently dropped out. Sprinkled in were bits of the girl walking around in a sports bra, pajamas, or sometimes he just got lucky and she was in her underwear or showering. Heck there were even flashes of her and--Aura!?! Whoa....Then suddenly his mind was flooded with images of kidnapping, rape, beatings, murder, and blood. Lots and lots of blood. Joining a gang, more kidnapping and more blood and violence. This jacket had seen more than Ty ever wanted to, though he had to admit some of it made him glad the memories were his. But the others...~
Ty had fallen to the floor, head pounding more fiercely than it ever had as he closed his eyes, trying to fight through the migraine and the wave of blood and gore to find...yes. There it was. This had to be the best vision he'd ever acquired. Sure, he hated this girl, but she looked good. Even if he had to fight back more of the violent memories than he wanted.
Suddenly he forgot about revenge, or getting out of this god-forsaken jacket...
I'd be willing to toss in Ty or Paige if you're interested. I really need to do more with the latter though, but if you get any ideas for either feel free to let me know~

As the sun peeked back out through the sky, it brought a certain young redhead out of his oddly deep sleep. He'd slept well, for someone who spent the night in a cardboard box wearing a stolen hat. Oh, and the mess that had gone on that very morning. Stupid gimpy, wheezing mutant-hater...stupid precog...stupid hat...
The young man stood to his feet and stretched, eying his surroundings. He needed coffee. Then maybe he could function at least well enough to get back to Sanctuary. Cracking his neck, he groggily made his way out of the alley and looking down the street. Ah, there was a coffee shop a few blocks away. He didn't frequent it but...coffee.
The walk was uneventful, as was the wait in line, but it was totally worth it. "Morning," Ty groggily said to the blond behind the counter, looking at her nametag. "...Paige."
"Look. It is too early to have some stupid redhead hit on me, so just make an order and get it over with," the young woman snapped. "I don't mind having you wear your morning coffee..."
Ty blinked. "Jesus I was just trying to be nice. Look, the only exchange I want between us is you giving me a large cup of coffee and a lemon danish, and I give you five and a quarter."
"Smart boy. Here ya go, and have a nice day~" the young woman replied, faking a smile and laying on the happy a little thick. Jeez what was her problem?
Ty sighed, taking his food to the nearest table and sitting next to the window. He didn't know why, he just loved a window seat. Finally able to relax his thoughts, he enjoyed his breakfast in peace, making a mental note to buy some more aspirin when he got done with this.

Ty shrugged. "Probably because it's too early for this ****, he muttered. "Late, whatever. Look, the paper said 'tell him you see this this and this, then I saw this, that, and the other thing. Made sense to me. What made me think he was screwing with you is the fact that he laid everything out so clean. So perfectly." He didn't like this, not one little bit. He didn't like Simon, he didn't like the fact that he was still awake, and he surely didn't like this man and his stupid hat. How would this guy cap anybody? He could barely even breathe...
Wait...he couldn't run either. So, in a flash, Ty snatched his arm back and bolted. Wait...first, he swiftly snatched that hat off of the man's smug little head before putting the hat securely on his head and his speed on show here as he darted down the street and into an alley. However, though his speed was impressive, his stamina was lacking. And he was already exhausted. Too tired to make it all the way to Sanctuary. Too tired to go anywhere but here. Oh look, a cardboard box.
It was one of those big ones too. And empty, which was always a plus. Though why someone in this kind of neighborhood would need a refrigerator this nice-looking was beyond him. But hey...free bed. So, the young red-headed psychic curled up in the box, pulling his jacket close and falling asleep. He'd done crap like this before, so who cared?
Besides, anything would be better than hanging around that guy...

Ty looked at the man when they stopped. "Never said I was hiding anything. I told you everything. The vision was a note, telling me what to tell you. But nothing about that seemed...fishy to you?" He asked, in a more serious tone. Okay maybe he'd just cut to the chase. It was too late for this crap. Too early. Whatever.
"One, he told you what you needed to know, apparently. Even down to an exact time. If that doesn't sent up a warning flag, this should. The note, the vision? It was as if your friend made sure conditions were perfect for my powers to catch every little thing. So, why would a precog make sure we could get that information, unless he wanted to be found? Either he's planning a trap, or he wants to rub something in that arrogant nose of yours. Either way, he's screwing with you," the young man said calmly.

Ty's face narrowed into a scowl. Yes, he finally noticed the lights in the hallway had gone out, but he was really too pissed off at this chick to care. "Pity party? I was minding my own damn business til you came pounding at my door. For the record, you don't know **** about me, what I've been through, and you're only making me wish my knife wasn't on my night-stand" he started, gloved hands clenching and unclenching. He was really and truly debating shoving what was left of his morals aside for a split second...just enough to punch a couple teeth by this chick's throat. But he didn't. Even after she hit him, he didn't.
"I have stolen cars, I have dodged police, I have murdered, I have stared death in the freaking face, hell, I once jumped off of a building, all for a relationship--yes, an ACTUAL relationship, where every attempt at a kiss was putting my life on the line. You wanna bitch and complain? Take it to the complaint department..." Suddenly, he picked up the little trashcan by his door and tossed it at her before slamming the door in her face. There wasn't anything in it but the half-empty beer bottle, but he didn't look to see if she dodged it, caught it, or whatever. The next sound she'd hear would be the sound of glass breaking against the now-closed door.
Ah, those first-impressions were something else, huh?

Ty nodded, smirking at the thought of planting little plastic army soldiers all over the place to gather information. Not only would it be a good training method, but later he could use this to eavesdrop or to spy on something if he so chose or needed to. Either way it was bound to prove fun, right?
"Yeah, sort of. It'd help me to get a better hang of it, so I can tell what to look for in a stream of oncoming visions."

Ty grinned back at her, once again at the top of a hill on this roller coaster of an adventure that this little ordeal was sending him on. One minute he was amused and happy, but the next he was overwhelmed by sadness and memories. It was all so confusing.
"No, no, the sprinkles and the frosting come after we bake them," Ty explained. "But before that, we have to mix it together." He looked at Regan, then too the eggs, gently picking them up. "Reg, you wanna crack the eggs? I have a tendency of getting shell in them sometimes..." He smiled sheepishly.

Ty's head was pounding, but luckily Simon had catered to his powers, otherwise the poor kid would be lying unconscious on the street right now. Probably at this creep's mercy. That was a thought worth shuddering for.
He didn't have the energy to fight or resist when the guy grabbed at his arm. All he could do was let himself be dragged, their footsteps almost matching the pulse in his head. With one hand, he popped a few more aspirin, cursing as he realized that was his last few pills.Sighing, he tossed the empty bottle over his shoulder.
But something didn't add up.
Why did he give away so much information? Why did Simon provide the perfect conditions for Ty to see what was going on? He could still see the psycho's smug smirk as he was writing the note.
"Hang...hang on. I'm pretty sure....he's just screwing with us," Ty interjected.
Great. The original plan was to let the killer have his fun. But now...Ty just became a part of the game.

Ty chuckled. "Yeah, it has its ups and downs. I can only half-control it right now. Luckily it's a new car so I didn't get too much of a headache from it," he replied, winking back.
"I'm good for just cruisin. You know, unless you have any ideas while we have this baby. I'm open to suggestions." The redhead turned up the radio, smiling as a familiar song blasted through the speakers.
So much for the golden future, I can't even start I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law Breaking the law, breaking the law Breaking the law, breaking the law Breaking the law, breaking the law
"Heh, if nothing else, I compliment his taste in music," Ty remarked, grinning even wider. It was hard to believe that just that morning, he was as down as he could be. Now, he was on top of the world again.

"I'll explain in a minute," Ty replied, seeing the same man in the mirror. "Alright, let's see what this prick-car can do!" He threw it into drive, then hit the gas, the car roaring to life and tires squealing on the pavement as he blazed a trail down the New York streets, taking as many side-streets as he could to avoid traffic.
Then, he snapped on his seatbelt. "Okay, so if I touch something, I can see the past of the object, what the object's been through, and things it's 'seen' if you will. It's a new car, and the mirror is in the best position to see what I needed to. So, I saw the owner typing in the code every time he typed it in." He smiled, loving this.

Ty nodded as he approached the car, and Kenzi very...creatively checked for an alarm. "Well, he did lock the doors, but...heh I'm looking at one of those electronic keypads over here. Makes my life so much easier..." The redhead smiled, removing his left glove and putting his palm on the side-mirror.
The mirror's life was very short, and hadn't seen much, but Ty managed to get what he needed. "Five. Two. Seven. Four," he said, pushing the buttons as he said them. Mostly, he was just showing off here as he popped open the door and climbed into the driver's side. Ty unlocked Kenzi's door, then focused his attention on the car, popping open the panel under the steering wheel.
"Let's see....hope I can still do this..." he murmured, putting his glove back on and fiddling with the wires. Several minutes passed, and the car fired up. "Awwww yeah...now...where we takin' this bad boy?"
