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.

"Well I couldn't stand to stay in that city after my dad died. Everything reminded me of him. Oh speaking of my dad, I need some help to get my car back from the police. Its a 1968 Pontiac GTO, I had it parked in a garage downtown and when I got back cops where searching it. This is all I could get out before they had me on the run." James answered as he swung his backpack in front of him to show it to Daria, as he did a bolt of electricity shot from his hand and struck the ground in front of the pair. "Sorry about that. You're one of the first people to see that and I'm not ashamed of it, other than I had no control over that." He said laughing and rubbing his hand on his pant leg to discharge the electric load in his hand to the ground.

Daria jumped at the blast but recovered. "It's okay."
"oh, yeah my parents are dead too. Thats kinda why I left D.C." She thought for a minute. "I'm sure Tricity will help you get your car back. It won't be easy."
"My mom is still alive, its just that she has never really liked me because of my abilities. Which all I know right now is to randomly throw bolts of electricity outta my hand. I would be very aprecciative to get that car back it was my fathers favorite so it means alot to me. It was the last thing he ever gave me. If I need to I will help get it." James said as an excited glint filled his bright sky blue eyes.

Daria laughed. "Well, hold it now. I don't think it'll take that much to get it back. Just alot of legal stuff, you know."
She kickeda rock out of her path. "I actually got my ablities the night that they passed on. We were in a car accident. They never even know I had powers."
"Thats sad that they never got to see you're powers. Do you think that they would have cared? My dad loved my abilities, he would always call me Battery or Electro, I was his little super hero. He would be so proud of me for getting that car back." James thought about his dad and a big smile came to his face."I think we better get inside I haven't slept in a long time."

"Well, you have to talk to Tricity about getting a room and everything. And I'm sure she wants to know what was going on."
Daria looked around to the head mistress who was a bit busy at the moment. She teleported to a tree and sat down. "But nature has its gifts." She smiled motioning for him to takea seat.
"I'm actually not sure what they would've said. We didn't have such a great relationship since they were so busy with the restaurant we owned." she looked down at her tail. "I think it would've caused problems." she decided thinking sadly about what happened with Sean. "It caused problems with others."
Suprised to see that Daria was right in front of one second then by a tree not even a whole second after. "Now that was cool. I thought being able to create electricity was cool but that was like so much cooler." exclaimed James as he held one hand high in the air and the other lower to the ground. "My powers are like down here, and your's are way up here. Oh by the way does that tail help in fighting, like with balance because it would be so helpful with capoeira. Have you heard of it? Its a style of fighting from Brazil." Demonstrating by doing a flipping kick and landing on his hand then puching off and spinning a 180 in the air.

Daria watched thoroughly impressed.
"Wow. well I practice tae kwon do." she said not wanting to demonstrate since her back hurt from the other day. "I know it helps my balance, like it would on a cat. Unfortunalty. I don't think you can grow one." she laughed.
"I'm suprised that you haven't made any comments about the way that I am dressed. I usually get those within the first 10 minutes of meeting somebody." James said motioning to his ensemble, which consisted of a tight black muscle shirt and a very tight girl jeans, and his contrasting bleach blonde hair. James also had his nose and lip peircings in. "It turns alot of people away, but I like it because it helps cut down on static. Which for me is a bad thing because that translates into more unexpected shocking."

Daria laughed.
"I've seen worse." she said honestly. I went to a high school prom in san fransisco and a guy showed up in a prom dress." she thought for a minute. "I actually think he looked better than me." Her ears flicked and her multiple earings jingled. her wrists were adorned with punkrock jewelry. "Yeah. Nothing surprises me. The mansion is one of the most accepting places."
"Do you go to shows alot? I did in detroit." James questioned as he forcefully sat down. He hadn't done any Capoeira exercises in a week or so. It felt good to get his blood moving and heart racing. The first thing he was going to do tommorow, other than eat breakfast, was to come out here and pratice a bit of his acrobatic techniques.

"Shows?" Daria asked, cocking her head to one side. "Like movies? Yeah. But things like concerts...not as much as I'd like to. I've been on the run for a long time since I was 15 so I haven't had a lot of time to...chillax." she explained.
"I was talking about concerts. I have been banned from most places though. So I could only go to house shows and little private ones. I got banned because I always would end up knocking some kid out in the pit on accident. They would always get in my way when I would do a spinning kick and that would be the end of my night. Well anyways, where is this headmaster or headmistress that I need to talk to?" James took in a breath as he finished the sentence since he didn't take a breath during that whole statement.

Daria laughed. "well they dont have mosh pits at the conserts i usually go to." she grinned. "Im a big hip hop/R&B fan." she said. She pointed to Tricity with her tail.
"The pretty pregnant lady. Her name is Ms. Tipper." she said. "She drove me, mike and your friend Jack here."
"I like hip hop too, the beats are awesome. Well it was nice talking to you." James said as he stood up and grabbed his bag. He proceeded to walk towards Tricity so he could ask her about enrolling or whatever he had to do to get in the school.
