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.

Ted was exhuasted, and did let it show. He sat down and took a few deep breaths before lying on his back "Hang on, give me a chance to breathe." He grinned up at her. "Must be nice having a non-physical power. Sit down, I'm giving myself at least five, maybe ten minutes after that. Didn't know water pipes were made so strong." Ted at first was a little concerned that this had taken so much effort, but decided that it must be due to him not being fully recovered from exerting himself pretty much all day. He decided that he deserved a little rest, even if he hadn't been totally instrumental in stopping Iris. Or himself, for that matter. He couldn't beleive that he had been so stupid as to have let himself transform, but then he remembered that the reason he was there in the first place was to help, and that he had been trying to do that when he had transformed. What had hit him, anyway? Because he had a funny feeling that it was Michael, but that couldn't be true. Could it?

Raina let out a sigh of relief "Oh thank God!" she collasped next to Ted and looked up at the sky that was now sunny with a smile. "I wonder how everyone else is feeling." she put her arms behind her head and then with a second though- examined the cuts and bruises she was now sporting. "We're not in kansas anymore dog boy." she ruffled Ted's hair a bit. "We never did buy you those new clothes... and you know, I was hoping to see you battle in my dress."

Ted laughed. "Well, I'm mostly happy that never took place. But in a way, it would have been interesting. Although, I'm definately going to need some new clothes." Ted lookdown at his tattered clothes, that had been torn apart by his transformation and from smashing his way through the mansion. He noticed her cuts and bruises, but decided that she didn't seem too worried about them, and they were nowhere near serious. "I'm sure everyone else is fine. I think we all got a little shaken, especially those that knew Iris before today." he straigthened his hair out. I hate it when people do that.

Raina laughed again "you know, I may have been delerious, but you really do remind me of my dog back home." she was teasing, and lightening the mood. "Do you think we should head inside and re-group? Maybe get a team for out here..."

Ted shook his head. "Nah, I think everyone is trying to recover from today. And I can't be bothered to move." Ted turned onto his side and grinned at her. "This'll get sorted out. Just not right now."
