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.

"You think penguines are cute? the little tuxedo ones...but they have other really big ones that look creepy....easier on the heart while you eat them." she laughed.
"I'm joking." she said as if he didn't already know. "So you wanna head back to the cabin now?" she asked, stretching idly. The place begged for one to sleep and relax, it was like a continuous lazy sunday.
"Hmmm... yeah, that'd be good. I think I could use a shower after that hike... and the hike back." He stood up and stretched, looking around at the packing that still needed to be done. Shouldn't take too long...

"Nope!" Daria shouted happily as she ran back to the tent. She didn't know how to take the tent apart but she teleported what she could in the pack, leaving the cooking setup and tent set up for Mike. Then she unplugged the matress so it would deflate, laying on it as it flattened out. she laughed.
Mike waved his hands lazily and watched the tent rolling itself up, the cooking gear stowing itself again, and everything coming back into its designated place. It took a while, but everything was packed again and ready to head back. "Shall we, my dear?"

The hike back to the cabin was pretty much the same as it had been from the cabin. Daria pranced around eagerly taking it all in for the third time the same as she had the first time, with Mike watching herwith loving admiration.
She pushed the door of the cabin open and threw herself onto the bed.
Mike flopped heavily onto the bed. "Definitely not," he moaned in approval. The air mattress had been comfortable, granted, but nothing like the super-comfortable bed. "Ick," he said, jumping up just as quickly. "Leave it to air conditioning to make me feel sweaty... shower?"

Daria laughed, "Together? What kind of girl do you think I am?" she might have been convincing had she not been half naked and already on her way to the bathroom.
"Hey, I only suggest it because you said it yesterday... I'm fine with leaving it empty," Mike added quickly, sensing the panic she was doing a very good job of suppressing.

She stuck her tongue out. "Duh! I know I suggested it..I suggest a lot of things.
"As much as I want to get over it you don't expect me to be all honkey dorey, do you? People who are afraid of heights don't just skip happily onto elevators during therapy!"
She stopped herself and took a deep breath. "sorry..."
"Oh whatever, you know I'll love every minute of it," Mike laughed as he set the hot tub filling.
He spent a few moments musing over the fact that neither of them seemed bothered talking about that subject as more than just a vague possibility, but turned his mind back to the matter at hand as he shed the last of his clothing, then climbed into the hot tub, letting it fill around him, beckoning for Daria to join him.
