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.

Forever my knight in shining armour aren't you? she said grabbing the shampoo.
She had learned a neat trick when she was living at the base. She could actually teleport her braids apart and then teleport them back. It was something she had learned in basic training because Linda felt it was good she move as quickly as possible on "missions." She did that now so she could wash her hair, puring the strawberry scented shampoo onto her thick balck hair.
Okay well, whether I tote you around or not, we are both in agreement that I have some serious issues with my appearance that I need to get over. I just got over walking around in the mansion without shades. Yeah, I'm showing the tail tomorrow, and you don't have to block anyone's mind.
Good. Because as I told you the day I met you... tails are hot.
Michael smiled. He was proud of her for being this brave, honestly he'd expected her to hide the ears AND the tail. We've all got problems, we'll deal with them. I, for one, am not relishing my father introducing us to everyone as his 'criminal son and his mutant girlfriend,' assuming he acknowledges us, but such is life, I guess.

Daria smiled to herself as she rinsed the soap from her hair.
Yeah, me neither but... she trailed off for a minute. I wouldn't sit there and take it. You'll have to let me know exactly how you want me to behave. I can put a damper on the temper if need be. I want to make you look good. I can be prim and proper if thats what you want or you can get the regular, stay out of my face, Daria.
Mike laughed. No, no... I want you to be yourself. He likely won't do anything too outrageously assholish in public. No going off on him TOO bad... but don't take it. I'm sure as hell not.

Right, Daria thought, sharp remarks acceptable but don't rip his throat off.
She teleported the water molecules from her hair so that it was dry and then then teleported the braids back into place so that they formed long corn rows down her back. She grabbed a towel and emerged from the shower.
Mike grinned over at her. "Knew you could," he said. He didn't bother rinsing the leftover shaving gell off his face, he just stripped his boxers off and took her place in the shower. So what all are we going to get Kitty?

Anything pretty, Daria thought back to him. I mean, really nice dresses and cute little sweat suits. stuff she can play in and look nice in at the same time. And every out fit has to have a pair of matching hair clips. Yeah...I wanna get stuff to decorate her hair, it's her most important attribute. And an mp3 player so she can block out the voices when she needs too.
Daria let all the thoughts rushed through her head as she got dressed. She wore a black and white stripped shirt and a black tee shirt over it, a black courderoy mini skirt and tights that were stripped to match the shirt. She was busy looking for her black and white converse which she threw somewhere the night before looking for her sleepwear.
"Sounds good," Mike said as he walked out of the bathroom, his hair still wet and a towel wrapped around his waist. As he walked by, the object of her search floated up from behind the bed. He looked through his clothes, frowning as he tried to decide what to wear. "Oh, and I forgot to mention, Sarah is meeting us here in about five minutes. She just got on the elevator," he added in an offhand manner.

Daria twitched and looked around searching for some thing. She put her hand on the nearest thing she could find, a robe and teleported it over his head so that it fell and draped over him.
"I hate you" she joked before rushing to the door. She opened it to see a small girl with long silky blonde hair and familiar blue eyes. Those eyes widened when she saw Daria and a smile spread across her face.
"Hi, YOU must be Daria" She said clearly and articulatlely. She walked into the room soaking in its granduer and then her eyes went back to Daria.
"Yes, I am." Daria said, laughing a bit. "And you must be the famous Sarah. Mike has told me alot about you." she said.
"He told me alot about you too." she grinned as if she knew something. "Where is he?"
"Getting dressed." Daria said motioning to the siting area. "Go ahead and chillax till he gets out."
Sarah sat down on the couch and smiled at Daria who was debating about sitting next to her or not. As if the kid could sense her nervousness she spoke up. "You and I should be friends." she said simply.
Daria laughed again, her anxiety melting away. She just wanted to make a good impression on the kid since she was going to be in Mike's life for a while. But it seemed like sarah laready liked her. "I'd like that, Sarah." she sat next to the girl.
Sarah just grinned and bounced on the couch a little. "He takes forever getting ready, doesn't he?" she grinned, looking back at the bedrooms, one of them closed, the other very obviously not slept in. "Where's your room?" she asked, a youthful curiosity in her voice.

"Um..." Daria looked down at her shoes. "We...had a ...sleepover" she conluded. It wasn't a lie, it was a sleepover, a very adult sleepover.
"Have you eaten breakfast?" she asked hoping to change the subject. Either that or ask Mike to get the girl focused on something else. "Cuz we can all go out and eat breakfast." she glanced at her watch. "Or..lunch.."
