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.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a crowbar made its way into the back of Fade's head. She was invisible, so the only way the prisoner could have been able to actually hit her was if he knew there was something weird going on, so he proceeded to randomly swing around his crowbar. Lucky shot, he got her and some blood could be seen on her hair. Wow, this was going to be hard to cover up. Yet, Jaguar appeared and took care of the man that hit her.
"Thanks." She said as the blood was visible on the outling of her hair. SHe closed her eyes and concentrated hard before the blood became invisible. "I got this one." She said as she ran for the wall. She jumped and landed on it with ease, her raptor-like claws sunk into the solid and she twisted her legs until she lay sideways on the wall. When she was in this position, a man ran very close, holding a chain. Fade released the claws on her feet and they came crashing towards his face. He fell to the ground and Fade dropped from the wall. She picked up the chain and began to walk off when the man got up, so she whipped the chain across his face with such for that it, caused him to pass out.
"No problem. We're just lucky they don't have guns. Then we'd have to kill them all." Jaguar replies, jumping into the air and throwing a prisoner into the wall. All of a sudden he hears the distinctive *click*bang* of a pistol. A bullet whizzes past his leg, tearing off a peice of fur. He looks at Fade with a pained look. "I hate Irony!!" He then runs at the people with the guns, weaving side to side.
One of the guns lifted in the air and came crashing towards the owner's face, breaking his nose. Fade dropped the gun and climbed up a light pole, trying to catch her breath. Yes, this was fun, something to do, her head hurt, but at least she was no longer bored. However, she was definately going to need to get the wound in her head checked out very soon, it would be tragic if it became infected or something. She shook her head to make herself stop thinking about the wound and she continued in her fight as she jumped down from the pole and landed with a thud. She saw Jaguar and then saw a man aiming at him with a gun. Instantly, Fade dropped to the ground and slide towards him, right as she passed between his legs, her right leg flew up in the air and hit him right in the nuts. He fired his weapon in the air, safe from hitting anyone and dropped to his knees, grabbing himself where it hurt. Fade got up, grabbed his gun and hit him in the stomache, face, nuts, and then face again. He rolled over, completely knocked out.
"Somehow, I am glad that you came." Jaguar says with a smile. "Only a few left, and they seem to be locking themselves in their cells. I guess I should change back no---- NO YOU WILL NOT COME OUT!!" His voice now takes on an eviler tone," I'm not going back inside, OLD MAN!! I'm not going!!!" He was obviously in a lot of pain, but he manages to change back to human, his body covered in sweat from the mental exersion.
"And now you see my other self. You see It." He then turns and walks back to the helicopter and climbs onboard. "Lets go."
*That's odd...* Fade thought, then again, he was a mutant, some mutants were like that, Fade however, never had a problem with her powers, they never hurt her or anything so her understanding for his situation was very low. IN fact, she didn't understand it at all, if it weren't for the fact that she had seen him change painfully.
"Seems like your other side doesn't like to be contained." She said, turning visible and climbing on the helicopter along with Jaguar. Her head hurt, but she didn't pay much attention to it, maybe, if she didn't think about it, it wouldn't hurt. Well, that's not true, the more she thought on other things, the more her head hurt and thus, she had to think about her head again. It was an interesting complication.
"You have no idea. It took me three long years before I could controll my Jaguar form. And now my mental walls are cracking. Starting to bend. That is why I must go to Xaviers sister school. There's got to be someone who can help me."
"Do I ever?!" She gasped. The most money she ever had was $50, and that was not all that much compared to the world. Even then, that money was stolen, but she wasn't going to tell anyone that, stealing and running were her past, not her future, not her present.
"I'm sure there's someone that can help you, people there have so many different powers, it's amazing."
"Really? Because you're the one that actually works for them I just kinda tagged along." Wow, 5K, that's amazing, just for using her powers and beating up a few escapees? Hmph, good does pay, and does it pay nicely? Yes, it does!
"It's great, I'm not one of the ones that is allowed to run out and save people, not yet, at least. But I'm hoping that very soon, they will allow me to help out. I think that's what I need to do, help out, not steal and do all the stuff that I used to...uh...oh crap." She sighed when she realized that she talked for too long. *He works for the government you big stupid girl! Now you could get in trouble for stealing all that stuff and doing everything you did. Way to go, Jenny, you're the smartest person ever! YOU BLEW IT!* she thought as she kept her eyes glued to the floor.
Jaguar just smiled. "I know the feeling. Thinking you've let too much slip. No I don't work for the Govornment, I just do odd jobs for cash. So I think we'll just keep this as our little secret. But I don't know how long I will be at the mansion. I most likely will get some help with my little problem, maybe get some cash, then move on. It's the way I am."
