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.

IC: The werewolf grinned happily at her boyfriend, tail wagging back and forth freely. While the events that happened in the past few minutes weren’t completely forgotten she did allow them to be pushed into the back of her mind.
She didn’t really want to think about them anymore and going to sleep next to someone she cared about was the easiest way to push it into the farthest reaches of her mind. The wolf girl would take Akshay’s hand gently, pulling him from his spot and pretty much dragging him into his bedroom, semi-forcefully. The wolf girl didn’t want to seem so forceful but the sooner she forgot about this, the better and it would help her loose focus on the fact that her left arm, luckily not the arm that she was dragging him with was beginning to hurt again from the massive wound that lay across her arm/wrist.
The Alpha female pushed her hair from her eyes; just before she climbed beneath he covers of Akshays bed. Emerald was tired, this much was certain and with that tired form she lightly pulled Akshay into bed with her, happy when he obliged. Part of her though still was worried; she knew that her dreams were often far from kind. In fact they could be absolutely horrifying depending on the day, leaving the wolf girl in an exhausted state when she came into work the next day.
This was why Emerald would often take the night shifts at the tiny little dinner she worked at, that way she wouldn’t have to sleep all the time just most of the time. To say that this didn’t affect her would be a lie though; sometimes she would lash out at others due to her lack of sleep, including people she cared about. Maybe it was time for her to start talking to someone about the darker aspects of her life, not all the time but in time, when she choose to finally reveal them.
“Akshay…you don’t mind me talking to you do you? I just, really can’t show this side of myself to anyone else and I just feel really comfortable around you.” Emerald confessed, blue eyes clouded with a flurry of emotions.
The werewolf did feel somewhat confused at this revelation.While she had talked about this before, showing this vulnerable of a side was strange for her and she didn’t like it when anyone else saw it. With Akshay however, things always seemed different like she could trust him with things like that. The wolf girl gave a soft yawn, and snuggled close to him and wrapped her arms around him. Maybe just this once, she would be given a good dream if she deeply slept by someone she cared about, maybe just this once.

Her hand slipped into his and Akshay felt himself being pulled away from the cool, white interior of the bathroom towards the bedroom. He did not fight Emerald but instead let her lead the way. Akshay would have been perfectly happy just sleeping on the couch but if she needed him to lie next to her, then he would. It was understandable, as well, considering absolutely everything that she had gone through, not only this night but before as well.
His bedroom was probably just as geeked out as the rest of his apartment. This room had a large, queen-sized bed with more book shelves, filled with a combination of books, graphic novels, and photographs while on the floor near his dresser were several comic book storage boxes that have “Do Not Touch!” scrawled all over them.
Once in his room, Akshay closed the curtains and waited for Emerald climb in underneath the covers first. It was only when she was settled in that he slipped in next to her. Immediately she snuggled up close and Akshay sighed a little contentedly as he reached around and gently began to stroke her hair in order to help her sleep. She had been through a lot today and he knew that she definitely needed her rest.
As she held him close, she whispered to him…
>> “Akshay…you don’t mind me talking to you do you? I just, really can’t show this side of myself to anyone else and I just feel really comfortable around you.”[/color]
Her eyes drifting closed, and Akshay himself extremely comfortable, shook his head as he continued to run his fingers through her hair. As he did so, he thought about everything she had gone through, all the blood that she had seen, and he began to see why she did not talk to just anyone. How could see? Seeing that much violence, having that wild of a life, it makes sense that she would reserve herself only for those people that she was most closest to.
In that moment, he felt truly honored.
“No, I’m…I’m actually glad that you want to reveal so much to me,” he said as he leaned down and softly kissed the top of her head. “I’m honored that you trust me so much,” said as he kept stroking her hair. “And I’m sorry, that you had to go through so much.” The whisper fell from his lips as he realized how heavy his eyes were. Slowly he continue to pet run his fingers along her scalp and started to drift.
