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.

Desiree arrived in the kitchen, with Ruki behind her. She immediately went to the source of the smell, and sighed. A slice of pizza was in a garbage can. She checked the cupboards, and found nothing good. She opened the fridge and let out a groan. "What, is this shopping day or something?" she asked rhetorically. The fridge was bare, so she opened the freezer. "Freaking pancakes..." she moaned, pulling out the 5 pancakes and setting them into the microwave to heat up.
Ruki glanced at the microwave. Then took an apple from the bowl of fruit on the counter. She took a knife from the drawer and began to peel it. She ddin't cook. No Ruki didn't have to. Her father had maids and butlers so she didn't need to cook. What then was she to do now? Order breakfast everyday? It wasn't such a bad idea.
Hina-Oni stood slowly and walked across the counter to point at the door. Ruki quickly grabbed her and dragged her back down.
(You should start looking for him. That's why you're here isn't it?)

"You know..." Desiree said, her back still facing Ruki. "I can hear Hina walking, you don't have to hide the fact that she can move." Desiree said. She wasn't used to someone this mysterious, and it was sort of turning her on. She took the pancakes out of the microwave and began to eat, ignoring the syrup that was still in the fridge, and the butter. "You looking for something? " she asked. "You seem a little distracted." she continued.
Ruki was glad to change the subject from Hina. She nodded, daintily biting a piece of the apple.
"I assumed that this was the only safe place for me to stay while I looked for Drachir. We were separated a few years back when the mutant outbreak happened in our area. I haven't been able to find him since and I really hope that he is alright. He is most dear to me and I love him more than anything in the world."
(HAHAHAHA. Well you can forget the romance, now, kiddy. You totally made Drachir sound like your boyfriend.)
Ruki blushed when she realized Hina was right. Of course the blush could've just furthered the misunderstanding.

"Oh, I see..." Desiree said, sounding a little embarassed. "Well, consider me your personal bloodhound. You got something of his I can get a sniff of? I can probably track him." Desiree said. This was true, her sense of smell was just as good, if not better than a bloodhound.
"Um, yes well I have people working on it. But I have no clue where he ended up after the separation." She searched for words that wwere subtle but potent. "We have been friends since we were young children, you see, and it would just break my heart to find that he is hurt."she looked down at the apple as she took another small bite. "He is like a brother to me."

Desiree brightened at the brother comment. She really, really liked this girl. The problem was, she didn't know if Ruki was... "So! What do you want to do?" Desiree asked abruptly.
Ruki took a ziploc bag from the drawer at the counter and placed the apple slices inside of it, continuing to eat them. She absent mindedly wiped off the table as she thought.
"Well, I will accompany you to the gym if you still wish to go there." She offered. "At some point, I suppose I should pick up a course catalog. I do want to finish highschool." she laughed. Money had made it so it wasn't necessary for her to learn a particular skill but she actually enjoyed school and meeting new kinds of people. She took another bite of the apple.
(This is absolutly sickening.) Hina said and stood again. Ruki watched her walked to the edge of the table. "You do know," she began without looking in the Doll's direction. "that not everyone is going to be as calm as Desi-chan when they see a foot tall doll marching down the mansion halls?"

"I don't think that's going to cause a fuss Ruki..." Desiree said, staring with a shocked expression at the small robot that was walking by the kitchen. "Uh yeah, to the gym!" Desiree said, and began to head out of the kitchen to check if Ruki was following.

OOC:Hope you don't mind me just sort of jumping in here.
BIC:Magdalena's nose twitched and she thumped her tail once against Teddie's shoulder. "Oh I know what you want..you want something to eat. I didn't eat on the train either, Mags, so I guess we better go find the kitchen." Teddie stroked the cinnamon spotted white rat as she close the door tro her room, walked down the hallway and into the kitchen. "Uh..hi. You in charge of breakfast around here?"she asked Desiree.
Fade was walking down the hallways, wearing her dancing pants, her leopard pj pants that were so comfy that whenever she wears them, she can't help but dance, a black cami, and happy bunny socks. She made her way down the halls dancing, what do you know? Her feet tapped the ground softly as she continued to twist her upper body, moving to the beat and just relaxing in the moment as she sang the Date Rape song by Sublime, it was a funny song and she had it stuck in her head now.

Teddie turned at the sound of another coming into the kitchen. Mags let out a squeak and curled her long, pink tail protectively around her mistress's neck.
Fade's nostrils flared as the scent of the pancakes filled her nose and sent a tingling sensation up her spine. For a plit second, her eyes crossed in relaxation and her mouth opened and crept into a small smile. She then seemed to float into the kitchen, making her way towards the welcoming scent until she saw another. *Oh boy,* she thought *another stanger I have yet to meet, seems like new people are coming every day and I haven't even met all of the locals.* She sighed and looked at the girl. "I take it you're new?" She asked, stopping in her tracks, the scent of pancakes left her nostrils and she simply stared.

Teddie smiled. "Yeah..name's Theodora, but you can call me Teddie. And this is Magdalena.."she said, stroking the rat to calm it down. All these new people were causing the poor critter to freak out. "So..what's your power?" she asked casually as her pancakes heated in the microwave.
