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.

Daria laughed.
"You are so wrong" she thought for a while. "when the 5.0 come looking for you I'm raising my paws in the air and pointing my tail at you" she said doing just what she described.
"Well, I figure it'd be hard for them to report stolen. 'Well, we gave it to the person we kidnapped to let him escape and act as a sleeper agent to kill their headmistress...'"

"Oh, right I for got about that." she blinked. She was still weak from the day before and hadn't teleported since-she didn't trust herself. "So, you're keeping the car, then?"

She nodded. "Yeah, of course, you can probably afford your own car anyways. You didn't happen to get a call back about those murder cases did you? Or did that get interrupted by Pops' unexpected..." she trailed off.
"I'll still hear from them when they find something, but I haven't heard from them yet, no." He sighed, pushing out of his head the recurring thought that all of this was his fault.

"Eventually..perhaps soon I have to go to Nevada. But I don't want to leave you if you're not going to be alright. I think I can postponed the trip 'til after the funeral" she shrugged.
"I'd appreciate it... but do you really have to go alone? I'd have hoped that I'd proven useful by now," Mike teased. Honestly it was more than just wanting to help... Daria was all he had anymore. He'd come to the school with seemingly nothing and managed to lose the only family support he'd turned out to have, he both didn't want anything to happen to Daria, and didn't like the idea of being left here alone.

Daria thought for a moment.
The reality of the matter is...I wasn't supposed to tell anyone I was affiliated with the base in the first place. I ridicule 'shady deals' when, in reality, im sort of in one myself. I agreed to work for them from time to time and let them study my mutant powers. They kept me from getting arrested and experimented on by people who really didn't give a Cat's ass what happened to me.
She could see that a "no you can't come along" would disappoint Mike, and she understood why.
On the otherhand, I told you out of pure necessity. Considering what was going on here, it would've been wrong not to share my resources soooooooo. She grinned. I 'm sure I can talk to someone and have you let in. If anyone can keep a secret it's you.
Mike smiled slightly. Daria's thoughts were as easy for him to read as his own by now, he didn't miss a bit of that.
"If it'd get you in trouble, don't take me. Causing you problems is the last thing I want to do." He reached out, cupping her face and stroking her cheek with his thumb. "I'd miss you like crazy, and worry even worse, but I'd be okay. Hell, you've proven that you can take care of yourself worse than I can take care of myself."

Daria laughed. "No, I want you to come with me. I want you to meet all the people who helped me. I used to be so much worse off than I am now." she smiled and pulled out her phone which was vibrating.
"Hello?....Yeah he saw it, thanks...No we haven't tried it out yet." she laughed "Yeah maybe for you, but that's good for us, means we don't have a reason." She glanced at Mike and motuhed an apology for being rude, then a light bulb clicked on in her mind. "Hey, is Dr. Sheilds there?" she asked. "May I speak to her?" she was put on hold and turned to Mike. "Dr. Shields is the woman I was working with. If anyone is going to let you in it'll be her to convince them. ..Hello?" she said into the phone. "Hey Linda it's Daria...I know, I've been busy." She began to inform the doctor about all she could about what had been happening over the past couple of weeks.
"Yeah, I know. Anyways, I was thinking about coming over there to use the online lab history records you have. I'm looking for some certain doctors and as much about this general as I can....Yeah, I know I don't have to ask, I'm not asking about that. I was wondering if I could ring a friend." She smiled. "Yep, him. He's actually been a big help to me....Of course he won't tell." She was silent for a long time then spoke again. "That's no problem, get back to me when you can. Bye Linda."
"See? Good News. Linda says it will take a while to get permission. They're gonna do a background check on you-Don't panic- and they'll get back to me. That should leave time for the funeral."
