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.

She turned her head and looked at the girl. She didn't even notice that someone was sitting at the table but sometimes that happened to Cailyn. "Hi" She said at a high pitched voice. After that she shook her head in a way that she ment that she couldn't help her. Nobody could technicly as nobody could get rid of those weird things going on in her mind. She woobled her body back and fort again as she looked around what was going on, not paying attention to the girl. She had no idea that most people would find that rude. She had no clue what she was doing here but it looked like a bit of a weird place. It was a bit dirty and weird that people wanted to come here, but everything was better then being outside with scary people thinking weird things. "What is that?" she suddenly asked the girl pointing to the french toast and omelettes. She never saw that before.
The car man seemingly took it that she didn't want to go. She didn't want to hurt his feelings but she could also not stop a car man. She was sad that he had to leave but also even for her it would be weird to enter a public area with a man that was a car.
She waved to the car man as he walked away and she started saying to him: "Bye bye mister car man, hope to see you soon again. " "You have very soft seats." She added to let him know that she liked him.
excitement rushed through the mind of the young man and Cailyn sensed it but her sleepyness was not broken. She yawned again and scratched her head even while she knew that the man had a bottle in his hand. He even took a fighting stance towards her but she had other things on her mind like sleep. She could just sit down in a chair and fall asleep. "who are u and how do u know my name?"
She yawned some more. Good girls wher supposed to go to bed around 20:00 and she could never leave that as it was hammered into her in the asylum. It was way past her bedtime and she wasn't used to it. "They told me." She said sleepy, implying to the whispers that spooked around her head
The girl seemingly recognized her and talked to her asking what was going on. Cailyn had her eyes half shut and opened one of them fully and yawned again. "Found bathroom, go back to bed." she replied sleapy and drowzy. Normally it was hard for her to talk normal and now that she was half asleep it was even harder for her.
It was late and Cailyn was sleepy. She had her pijama's on and her pillow in her hand. She couldn't sleep though since she was thirsty. She opened the door of her room and sleepy walked down the corridors looking for something to drink. She still got lost like, all the time in the sanctuary so finding a bathroom while being sleepy was hard.
She walked through the hallways until she found a bathroom. She got herself some water to drink and went while she was there. It seemed smart to her to go in advance. When she was done she washed her hands and left the bathroom. She rubbed her sleep filled eyes with her one hand as she heard voices. The voices where not in her head, well not completly. She found herself in the foyor looking at a girl and a boy. In her sleepy behavior she waved with her pillow in her hand and yawned while she spoke. "Hewwo, Rena and Peter." she yawned and she slowly shuffled further in search for her room.
Cailyn was lost on a bad side of town. Well it wasn't that bad, it was just a bit riggidy. Scary looking people where everywhere hiding in alleys and stuff. She didn't know why she was there and all she got was scary thoughts of people thinking bad and sad things. It scared her and she wanted to go somewhere a bit more safe looking atleast.
She came across a small restuarant that had seemingly only a handfull of people in it.She skittered inside a bit scared and curious at the same time. She didn't know what to expect but there was one woman with fish on her mind. Lot's of fish. Fish where fun, weren't they. Atleast they where nice thoughts seeing as they where about fun fish, and food seemingly. Hungryness was on lots of peoples minds and seemingly it was no different in a restaurant (duh). She skittered the the corner and sat down at the table, making herself wooble back and fort to releave some stress and getting comfortable.
im gonna use this thread one more time before moving to the board thingy for good old times sake .
Seeing as im backish now and ready to get my postage up some more i need a thread or two. I got 3 open so anybody interrested gimme a pm, or mental note
As she stood there on the streets she experienced the transformation from car to.... carperson. It was a sight to be seen as it looked like it could only happen on tv, but this was real. She was looking at the transformation with amazement on tv and the only thing she could lead out was a long: "Wouw." It was another thing that Cailyn would never experience if she stayed in the asylum so it was another pro for her to the escape.
"So, you still want that coffee gal? It's nice to actually be able to see you..."
Cailyn looked at him still with amazement on her face not knowing what to say. The whispers nudged her to speak up and she shook the amazement out of her head. "I don't like coffee." She said a bit blushy. It was true, it made her edgy and jumpy even more then usual so she avoided coffee allot. She was more of a soda person, preferably soda light, les sugar was better for her.
"Try the unlock button on the dashboard now, Cailyn."
She looked at the dashboard and scratched her head. It was button heaven for somebody who liked buttons that is. She poked one of the buttons and the airconditioning went on. "Nope. " She said to herself and poked it again. She looked again. It was all fuzzy for her. After this she would never get into a car without asking it first. She gave the buttons another try and this time the heather went on and off. "Nope." She mumbled to herself. The whispers in her head gave her direction to all the wrong buttons. By the time she tried 10 buttons all the wrong things happened. Windshieldwipers, windshield washer , the radio , you name it. Suddenly she head a a click coming from the door. She turned around and tried the door again. It opened ! Hurrah ! she stumbled out and turned around and gently closed the door. She didn't want to hurt the car.... again. She stood there waiting for his trick.
"Hey, uh, Cailyn, if you step out for a second I can change into my more... human-like form. Then we can have a proper chat yeah? maybe go to a cafe or something, jus' sittin' still with a lady inside me is gettin' a little awkward..."
By the time he finished his sentance she was already crawling into the back the seat. She looked back at the radio. Was she going to listen to him or not. As always she obayed. She didn't want to end up on anybody's bad side. She crawled to the door and tried to open it. To bad it didn't open. It had a children safety look on it like most of the cars did. She didn't understand and tried to open it some more. She turned around to the other door to try it. It wouldn't open either. She moved back to the front and moved her head to the radio. "I can't go you are locked. " She said. She got a bit frightened by it. What if she was to remain in this car..... Forever.
The car stopped moving and the ride was over, as long as you could call it a ride. Cailyn sat in the car as it spoke again. It was still weird to see a car speak, in a matter of speaking.
"Hey, uh it's ok. No harm done and that?" "Look, my name is Slade. Would you like to tell me your name lady? I didn't mean to upset you ok..?"
He introduced himself. The car actually had a name that wasn't a car name. the whispers told her not to do it but she did it anyways. "They call me Cailyn."She said, introducing herself. Introducing herself to a car was something that could be added to her weird list , and that list was long. She was curious what else was in the car and she started looking around. It looked very clean and tidy for a car. maybe because the car was a person.
(OOC: sorry for the short post, little time with internet here =) )
The car got hurt by the tickling. How could a car get hurt by tickling was one of the questions that ran through her head. But then again running into a carman wasn't something you do everyday. She stopped the tickling and curled up on the seat. She grabbed her shoulders in a scared way and said: "I'm sorry , i''m sorry." "don't be hurt." She didn't want to hurt the car mostly because she herself didn't like getting hurt and he might hurt her if she continued. She was still curled up and scared that she might have done something bad.
So much happened in so little time. People ran screaming, shooting, throwing rock... the stuff that riots are made out off and Cailyn stood in the middle of it. Cailyn's powers where still affecting all the humans that tried to hurt the mutants in front of the store. Though she did not control their movements she did try to make them back off. And suddenly shots where fired.
The shots where a suprise even to Cailyn and for a second she woke up from her trance to see the girl who tried to protect everyone drop to the floor. This angered the "other" Cailyn as she returned back to her trance. She was now fierce and angered, ready to inflict pain and death upon others. Her hands twitched more violently then they would before and she pointed one of her hands towards the crowd as she leaned her head a bit backwards. "Sanity if for the weak." She softly spoke before most of them left the area.
Her powers once again influenced the crowd in a manner that could be discribed as total chaos. People falling to the ground screaming things like : "it burns" and "Get it off". This surely would cause some kind of mental damage to people or even some heart attacks to the weaker ones.
Cailyn floated towards the man who was standing up front that had the gun and she landed. She was back into her normal thinking for a moment and she pulled up a sweet but sad smile. She grabbed the man's head and she softly spoke: "You will not hurt anyone again." And she kissed his forhead. The man yelled and screamed and kicked until eventually he stopped and went numb. If the man survived it was a question for the people at the hospital if he made that. She landed and rubbed her head. Her powers were diminishing and she saw the other mutants running off. She picked up something about a car and decided to head there as soon as possible and she ran off toward the people and the car. It doesn't take a mentally stable mind to figure out that she had to get out of there.
