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.

"Makes perfect sense" she nodded, and didn't ask more questions about the X-men. She'll find out if (and when) they want her to. No need to rush things. Jewel was well aware of her status as a newcomer in the school; also this whole thing was not her main concern right now... "Nah, mine is a nickname. My parents have been calling be Jewel since I was five." she smiled at him, tilting her head "But point taken. And Silver Streak does sound cool." she admitted with a chuckle. "Um... there was one thing I wanted to ask you. You mentioned that students can learn self-defense here at the school... and after all that happened to us yesterday, I think I could use some training..."

“Cool.” He was glad that she wasn’t asking more about the X-Men. He hoped that she didn’t think he was trying to keep her out of anything but it was just some personal thing with him that he tried not to discuss it for the safety of the team. “Uh huh. That makes sense now that you tell me that… ya know I always thought that it sounded cool also and its kinda stuck. So I just go with it.”
Streak listened to her question. It was a good question too. He nodded along with the question. “Ya there’s training that we can do to teach you some self defense. I can do some of it but I can also introduce you over to Sam, who’s the self defense teacher at the mansion. We’d probably teach you most of the same things. It just all depends.” He replied.
"Thank you. I'm looking forward to it..." she smiled at him, then, as if she just remembered all the things that happened the day before "Um... and thanks for dealing with the police too. Let me know if... I'm needed. We have some experience with the whole thing. I mean me, my parents, and our lawyers..." she frowned as she said that, but there was a smile in the corner of her mouth.

“No problem. I’ve dealt with them before and they're always stubborn tool bags. They always try to drag you through the ringer also, which really sucks.” He thought for a minute. “It’ll all be dealt with quickly. Now, unless there’s some other confession that you need to tell me, then don’t worry about it anymore.” Streak said. He thought that they were finished here.
