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.

Nodding slightly he turned to smile at Tricity and began to focus on his wound and the loss of blood. Hand smoking he set to work, soon to be fit to walk again. Using the blood on his finger he started to draw something on the cave floor, next to her. It was the letter 'I' then the outline of a heart, then the letter 'U'.

A smile spread onto Ire's face
'That's Orion for you.' he thought to himself
He still couldn’t shake the memory of the gauntlet, Ire figured that Orion had herd parts of the conversation he had with Tricity and it had reminded him.
Orion now stood in front of Ire with and outstretched hand.
"You saved my life again." he said weakly as he finished getting to his feet. Tricity half supporting him. "How do I repay that?" Ire thought he saw tears in Tricitys face but didnt want to embarass her by pointing it out so he focused on Orions question instead.
"You were only trying to help me, my friend." Orion said seemingly feeling a little better, every time he spoke. "You tried to stop the one thing you knew would hurt me. This is no mistake, and I am glad you did." Tricity told Orion sit down again. He turned to her and started to disagree with her but decided she knew best at the moment.
"Never in my house will you sit on the floor like a servant. You will sit on a chair like the master of this domain, for many noble things have you done tonight, however misguided." Nodding to Ires request he continued. "I will from this day forward attempt to persuade you of the false visions you see, so long as you do not blame yourself for trying to save the life of an innocent. Do we have an accord?" Orion asked extending his arm out toward Ire. Who had gotten up but was not moving toward the chair yet.
" I agree." Orion concurred as Tricity sat next to him on the arm rest of the chair he was confined to per her orders. He smiled at her and she leaned down and kissed him. Turning to Ire he asked what had happened since they got to the bushed for that was the last thing he remembered. Tricity was rubbing his back and it felt great. as ire began to tell yet another story Orion started to smile for the first time in what seemed ages. His big arm made its way around her waist and held her fast. Orion always like how Ire told stories. So full of life and detail Orion could swear he was there when it happened.

Ire, for the first time since he had arrived in this time, removed his face mask and took a deep breath in the middle of his explanation. He had so far told him about how Orion had passed out and they brought him to the car and how Ire’s awareness had come back. After a moment delay he jumped into the story.
“ Officers surrounded us as we drove back and we were forced to stop. I fought the urge to kill these men when they first arrived. Tricity and I left the ‘car’ and after a moment they started firing their strange bows at us. Tricity began to gather a great energy and I blinded some officers in attempt to incapacitate them. As more officers showed up we ran back to the car, me sustaining this bullet wound.” He pointed to this shoulder. “Tricity by this time had much power within and began to release it shutting out all the tall lanterns around. An officer somehow made his way to where we where and I tackled him down before he made it to Tricity. She then blasted the man off of me and went after the others. She released her power and took out nearly all of them but was severely drained after word. I then made my way over to her and apologized for what was to come. I engulfed the area in darkness and did what I needed to stop the threat. Now we sit here.”
Nodding Orion sat there for a moment and worked the details over in his mind for a bit. His right hand still covering where the wound would have been. He was getting much better. "Well its not like there was much of a choice was there, guys?" he asked. Both shaking their heads he thanked both of them for their help. Turning to Tricity he said to her
"You know, I keep forgetting you can more than protect yourself. I always think I have to stand guard of you. It is good to know that youve grown that powerful, hun. I'm proud of you. When I get better I think Ill start to train a little more vigorously. I may have to fend you off one day!" he said jovially as she smiled at him then playfully slapped his shoulder.
"Speaking of which. How do they suit you, old friend. Have they the same tenacity as you loyal friends from the past? Do they satisfy you?" Orion asked as he looked around for his blade. He had just thought of it and noticed it wasnt on his back.
