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.

Sleeping in his room, Blake dreamnt of his mother, closer and closer they got, almost as if it was a reunion. A faint sound came from the distance, and his mother was slowly being pulled away from his lonesome son. Farther and farther she got, Blake screaming "mom, no, don't leave me again," he said whimpering the dream. The faint sound got louder and louder, closer and close, soon Blake stood out of bed, seeing that it is already 3:35. "What a dream, dang the gifts, almost forgot," he said rubbing his eyes, trying to recover from the horrid dream.
Grabbing all the gifts, including decorations, he stuffed them all into a red bag and was on his way.
His first stop was Leila's room, he stopped outside the room, and placed a wrapped up gift. Inside the box was a silver neckalace, with a small diamond on it. On top of the box laid a card. The card read "Leila, I know since I've arrived at the mansion, we have run into some problems with each other, but it's chirstmas, and I hope you can forgive me. This necklace belonged to my mother, and I'm giving it to you because, my mother was a good person, and I want to follow in her footsteps. I'm willing to make sacrfices, to gain your trust, and I hope we can be friends, yours truely, Blake"
The next stop was Cold Steel's room, a large bag, inside was a brand new snowboard. Another letter was attached "I apologize for all the trouble I've caused since I've arrived Sam, hopefully we can become friends in the future. Sorry, I didn't know if you were a skiier or a snowboarder, but theres a reciept if you would like to return it."
Tired, he knew that he was far from done. His next stop was Silver Streak's, he left a tiny wrapped box, with a silver ring in it. His letter said "thanks for all the help Shawn, I hope you have a merry christmas, and I hope you like the SILVER ring for SILVER streak.
Afterwards he visited Luke, and then Raina's room. He left them both friendship braclets, and a similiar note on each saying "it was fun decorating the tree, and the rest of the living rooms. I hope you and (Luke/Raina) continue to go strong in your relationship,"
His final stop was Luna the doll mistress' bedroom. He thought he might do something special for her. Arriving at her door, while she was asleep. He took out a lockpick from his pocket "hope I don't get in trouble for this," he told himself while picking the lock. Finally opening the door, he entered and quietly placed a small chirstmas tree. He decorated it, put some lights, added a nice, shimmering star on top" He placed a tiny wrapped box, with a friendship charm braclet inside. The note attached to this one said "to my dearest friend, I hope you have the merriest chirstmas, the greatest years of your life, and remember, your family, and your friends, are always with you, in your heart."
Sneaking out, he locked the door on his way out, and went to sleep. Feeling like a job well done, he slept until christmas morning. Dreaming happy thoughts, he woke up an hour later, and yelled "DAMN IT!!!! THAT'S ALL THE SLEEP I GET?!?!?!

Streak woke up the next morning and realized that it was Christmas Day. Many people weren't here but there were still some that were because their families didn't approve of their mutations. He took a step out his door and stepped on something small on the floor. "What the?" he said to himself and picked up the tiny box on from the floor. He looked at the card and smiled. That's a nice gesture. he thought as he reading the note. Streak opened the box and saw the ring. It was nice and it actually fit. Streak put it back in its box and set it on his dresser. He'd probably use it later. Shawn then walked out the door and continued his day.

Yawning, Leila woke up on Christmas morning. She had plans today, she wanted to go and take a walk, maybe watch Children playing in the snow. Christmas was going to be fun this year, maybe not perfect, but better then the last 21 Christmas she's experienced. Slipping on some fluffy pink slippers with Bunny ears on them, she started walking towards her desk, where three fish were swimming in a large Aquarium. "Merry Christmas guys! Talk to me, it's been a week." she pleaded, but she wasn't expecting them to talk to her, not today. "It's Christmas, just one word?" but it was useless.
Her powers seemed hopeless right now, she hadn't transformed since meeting the Centaur and Unicorn, but sher knew that would work. Her Dolphin Transformation was easy to do. It just took Salt water. She edged towards the door, grabbing a hoodie that was hooked on the back of it. She was in need of a drink before getting ready. Opening her door, Leila nearly stepped on a present. A present? For her? She hardly knew anyone well enough for Presents. Maybe it was Sam? But she expected Sam to give her a present face to face.
Sam wasn't shy, and he was more romantic then that. SIghing, she took it, opening the present without seeing the card. "Aw, this is nice." she said, smiling as her fingers traced the Diamond. She wondered if this was really from Sam. She was about to put the peace of Jewelery back in it's box, when she saw the note. "From Blake." she hissed, her eyes narrowing. The present was nice, but the sender surely wasn't. "What doesn't he understand? I don't like him..." she trailed off, putting the present back in the box.
She closed the door, wondering what to do. "Is he that desprate? Sending me his Mother's Necklace." she didn't know what to do. She wasn't about to wear it, that was for sure. Should she just, give it back to him? Yes, she'd do that. Give the present back, tell him politely she really wasn't interested.

It was early as Sam opened his door and spotted a gift neatly placed in a large bag on his doorstep. “Who’s this from?” Sam wondered as he looked at a card. “Blake…” said Sam as he opened it and scanned the writing.
Sighing heavily Sam picked the receipt up out of the bag and tore it up. “Can’t buy me off…” mumbled Sam as he took the snowboard out of the bag and walked down the hall and dropped it off at one of the younger students doors.
Sam placed it at the doorstep knocked and walked back to his room. Still mumbling, “I can just make one from ice…better than money can buy….” Sam put some pants on and opened his window and glided down to get started on the sidewalks and driveways that were covered in a fresh snow.

Normally Luke did not stay at the mansion, but after the late night he had enjoyed on Christmas Eve, the blind man had been more than happy to accept Raina's invitation to stay in one of the empty dorms. Waking relatively early he went about his normal morning exercise routine of stretches, pushups, situps, and some light shadow boxing. Dressing in the extra jeans, white t-shirt, and gray pullover sweater followed by his boots from yesterday he headed for the door and hopefully a merry christmas with his girlfriend.
Opening the door the blind man paused, his sonar sweeping over the box that had been left just outside. Picking up the box Luke focused on the note with all of his might until finally his sonar was able to pick up the slight indentations left by the pen or pencil that had been used to write it.
"Blake... that was nice of him." Luke murmured quietly as he turned back inside and set the note with his bag of clothes. Opening the box he examined the friendship bracelet as a slight smile touched his features. "Very nice of him... I'm not a big fan of jewlry but it'll hook on my key chain quite nicely."
After attaching the bracelet to his keychain Luke stuffed the item back into his pocket and then once again headed for the door. There was a certain mermaid that he wanted to trap under the mistletoe.

Raina awoke with a start in her dorm. It took her a moment to realize she was at home at not at Lukes. What a strange novel idea? Sleeping in her own bed at the mansion where she's supposed to teach!
She yawned and stretched getting up from the bed and pulling on her slippers. It was Christmas day and she was excited Luke had decided to stay at the mansion. He was the first person she wanted to see... right after she brushed her teeth. Her dorm didn't have a bathroom so she plucked up her toothbrush and headed for the communal one.
As she exited her room her food bonked against a small package and she looked down and read the note. "Aww!" she exclaimed. Blake had been so thoughtful despite only meeting her a few times. She picked up the friendship bracelet- it was red beads. She carefully tied it around her wrist. It was odd to think of she and Luke as a couple- though she knew they decided on it, it was just strange to know that everyone else knew now!
