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.

The hot noon day sun beamed down glistening off the calm surface of the water. It's still waves gave no hint of movement other then the gentle breeze, no sign of what rested below the water's surface.
Kaia laid at the bottom of the pool her gray and white skin covered by a simple black bikini, the top was strapless and appeared to be tied in a not at the center of her chest while bottom had little string tie sides. Long strands of sliver hair floated around her head while her solid black eyes gazed up through the water watching the light dance across the surface.

Daria walked along the mansion groundsm still deep in thought from the park. She wasn't sure why the water had made her tense up. Perhaps it had to do with her mutation? Cats did hate water and she was half cat. But the day dream-as she hoped it had been- was just so real and vivid. Daria didn't know what to think anymore and it suddenly came into her head that perhaps it had something to do with how she became a mutant. Since most of it was blocked out of her head. It had been raining that night.... Daria was so deep in thought that she didn't notice she was walking towards the pool. She paid no attention to the girl floating in the water, in fact she wasn't aware of her surroundings until she walked right into the pool! Flash backs from her day dream zipped through her mind causing her to panic. She couldn't teleport without a clear mind and she couldn't swim. So she screamed.
All living things gave off a faint electric waves spawned from the firing of nerve cells sending signals to the rest of the body. In air such signals don't travel far, but in water they moved much easier. Kaia's senses quickly picked up on a on body falling in to the pool, and she felt the frantic splashing and flaying of someone struggling long before she saw it.
Kaia's solid black eyes darted over to spy the cat girl, sitting up she kicked up off the bottom of the pool to swim towards the struggling girl. grabbing a hold of the girl Kaia held the cat girl's head above the water as best she could, while keeping at least half of her own head under the water. Reaching the closest edge of the pool she hoisted her self out, pulling the cat girl along with. Once the they were both safely on land Kaia drew in a sharp breath, her lungs filling with air as water spilled out of her gills before they sealed shut against her neck.

Daria 's ears twitched before she scrunched up her face. She took a deep breath and broke out into a coughing fit, rolling onto her side and spitting up. She shivered all over and opened her eyes slowly to see a pretty girl with skin so pale it was white and long silver hair cascading down her sides. She had solid black eyes that, instead of scareing Daria pacified her and gave off a feeling of comfort.
"..th'thank" she cleared her throat "thank you so much....im Daria." She sat up and shook her self off like a cat. "whats's your name?"
"Kaia," The young woman said softly as she sat up so that she was kneeling. It was in fact, only her face the front of her neck the under sides of her arms, the front of her torso and inner thighs that were white, the rest of her body was a soft gray color, similar to the coloring of a shark. "Are you all right?"

Daria ran her hand through her braids and wiped off her face. Her eyes clear of water she was able to see the young woman more clearly. She was a teenager about Daria's age with a concerned look on her face. "I'm fine, I'm fine." Daria assured. ..Kaia? Thats a beautiful name." Daria said thoughtfully. She coughed again and looked around her..her eyes settled on the pool and the blue water that had become calm and still. Her breathing, which had just begin to settle then began to increase as her mind went into a panic. She'd almost died. Suddenly the sound of windshield wipers filled her ears and she could feel every drop of sweat seep through her pores. A faint and distant voice whispered in frantic tones and the sound of screeching metal became so loud Daria had to cover her ears. And when she shut her eyes she could feel herself flipping over. She began to hyperventilate.
*tricity was passing by the outside gardens, ushering the children back inside from recess. as she went around the back of the house to make sure she got everyone, tricity noticed kaia and daria at the pool.* hey girls!! *she said, waving and smiling at them. suddenly she noticed the concerned look on kaia's face and then the look on daria's face. she quickly opened the fence to the poolside and held onto daria's shoulder.* are you alright?! *she turned to kaia.* i'm going to get the doctor, stay with her!! *tricity quickly ran back inside and upstairs to grab the docprof and bring him to the poolside. as they reached the pool, one of the children from her class came up to her.* student: "ms. tipper, everyone's back in class." ok sweetie, i'm gonna come back with you. *she turned to kaia and the doctor.* when you figure out what's wrong, get back to me asap, ok? *tricity grabbed the little boy's hand and they returned to class.*

Unable to think clearly Daria couldn't form words to tell Kaia or Ms tipper the headmistress that she was used to having these moments. All Daria knew was that she wanted to go somewhere-- somewhere far away from the noise of cars and stinging of rain. Without her willing it her powers began to react and she started to blink in and out of view.

Daria realized that if she wasn't controlling her powers then she could teleport somewhere dangerous but she couldn't calm down. And she couldn't tell anyone what was wrong.
Kaia's solid black eyes gave several quick blinks in confusion as she watched the girl fading in and out. Unsure as to what to do she bit nervously at her bottom lip with sharp triangular teeth. Finally Kaia reached out to touch the girl's shoulder. "Are you all right?"

The touch of Kaia's hand scared Daria even more-she didn't want to teleport somewhere and take an innocent mutant with her. Daria struggled to take one long deep breath and finally succeeded. Her powers began to calm down and she stopped blinking. Swallowing hard and tasting blood-she'd bitten her tongue-Daria pulled away, just in case. She stared into the deep pools of black that rested on Kaia's face and the sounds in her head died down. She gave a weak nod to Kaia's question.

It took a while before Daria realized what had happened. She didn't have many friends at the Academy and it was because she was so afraid of doing something weird. She was sure she had scared Kaia and the feeling of regret and stupidity flowed through her conciousness.

Daria blushed a blush that couldn't be seen on her light brown skin and shook her head. "I'm so sorry, i didn't mean to scare you....i always do something stupid like that..." she looked away.
