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.

The first thing Daria did was take a shower. She was tired, yes but not necessarily in a hurry to get to sleep. She took a shower in order to wear the bathrobe. Forty minutes later she emerged from the bathroom in all it's porcelin glory, dressed in a black camisol and boyshorts. She was finally wearing her fluffy bathrobe which was over sized and the sleeves drooped over her hands. She looked diminutive in the garment...but cute.
Mike was looking over the room service menu when she came out, also dressed down to a more comfortable level, wearing only his flannel pants as he lay across the bed, considering their food options. He smiled broadly as she came back out.
"Sushi it is," he grinned. The phone floated over to him, and he ordered the food, then sent it floating back over to the nightstand. "All things considered, not a bad start to a mini-vacation," Mike said, trying not to think about why exactly they were there. Leaning over, he gave Daria a kiss. "And you look so cute that it should be illegal," he added, grinning.

Daria smiled and climbed on top of him. "I aim to please." she cooed. "and frankly, I'm excited about this weekend." she said genuinly. "I want to meet your sister."
Mike wrapped his arms around her, puling her close. "Mmm.. I can't wait for that either, really. Especially after today... Kitty reminds me too much of Sarah. And she's going to love you, by the way. Just be ready for her to think that your ears and tail are cute."

Daria smiled. "The kids always do" she thought back to the children's ward at the hospital. "It's the adults that act like jerks. Is your sister Kitty's age?"
"Yeah, pretty much. Sarah's twelve, and Johnny's sixteen, with their big brother the supposed psychotic nutjob rounding out this generation of the Asters brood. If there's a generation after us, we'll be able to see if my family is steadily getting more and more messed up."

Daria smiled. "Well, like you told me, if you were normal we'd have never met." she leaned in t kiss him, it was supposed to be longer but she heard her cell phone ringing. She groaned and considered not answering it before deciding it might be Kitty.
She rolled off of Mike and searched through her bag until she retrieved the noisy object.
"Hello?" she answered , a bit agitated. "..Oh, hi Linda, sorry." she laughed. "No, I'm not upset I was just a little, busy..." she was silent for a minute then glanced at Mike. "No, it's Asters, A-S-T-...yeah. Micheal Asters" she frowned. "Mike, is your middle name Alexander?"
Mike nodded, a curious look on his face.
"Yeah, thats him." she was silent for a minute. "Yes, I know him very well." Daria rolled her eyes. "Mhmm, yes he told me about the charges. You have my word, Linda, the dude is legit." she listened for a while mocking Linda by mouthing "blah, blah, blah" to keep the mood light in the room.
"Linda, would I lie?" she asked. "Ohio, why?" she laughed. "He's not a complete stranger and if he comes after me with a knife I can teleport away." she said, rolling her eyes again. "Yes, I know he was a famous Judge. Linda, what are you getting at."
Soon her eyes narrowed and her fists clenched. "We did all we could, Linda. Yeah, I know it doesn't look good...How could you even suggest?!-" she was close to hissing now but as she listened to Linda she calmed a little bit. "Yeah, but maybe you take your job too far. No, I'm not angry just...thin ice, is all...Yeah, thank you, let me know. Bye" she clicked her phone off.
Climbing back into bed she gave a half hearted smile. "right now, someone is looking at a file with such extensive information, they will know how many nose hairs are in your nostrils" she joked.
Mike's expression fell even further than it had while listening to the conversation over the phone. "Wonderful. And let me guess, it looks like I had someting to do with Grandpa dying to them," he sighed, seeming to sink even further into the bed.

"You...and me" she said tentativly. "Linda didn't mean any harm but, you know, bringing someone, especially a mutant with assault charges, to a military base is delicate business. She simply said that ti looked suspicious, with both of our histories for his death to have been inevitable. Like, we chose to let him die because he was human. She didn't mean it like that, but.."
