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.

[glow=blue,2,300]Orion was humming a tune to himself as he cruised the halls headed toward his room. He glanced up and saw Tricity finishing her rounds of the kids rooms. "Hey, hun." he called to her as she exited one room.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Hes gone to rest for a bit so he can try to make right what hes done wrong." Orion whispered as he kissed her lightly on the cheek. "How about you what have you got planned for the evening?" he whispered as they strolled down the halls.[/glow]
i have more papers to fill out and go over. there's still a lot to be done now that the school is open again, you know? *she said as they walked over the balcony area that went directly over the main hallway of the school toward her room.*
[glow=blue,2,300]"So youll be busy tonight then?" Orion asked figuring if she was hed go and crash back at the Cave for the night. but he still waited for an answer none the less[/glow]
well....yes, but if you'd like to come to my room, that would be fine... *she answered, still feeling uncomfortable toward him after fighting for the past few days.*
[glow=blue,2,300]"Well i dont want to distract you from your paperwork, but if you want the company Id like to spend some time with you." he replied smiling a little, but like her feeling a little weird about all the arguments in the last few days.[/glow]
Meanwhile, at the other end of the corridor, Reflecto was still confounded with the simple corridor. He was engrossed by everything, the way the walls were exactly the same but looked different, newer, amazed and befuddled him. He stopped at a painting, a portrait of Xavier. He tilted his head slightly. "It's straight...it was never straight." He spent the next 10 minutes adjusting the portrait to match his memories of it. He smiled slightly, and walked on, still gazing at the ceilling and walls.
*tricity woke up the next morning and put a navy blue sweatshirt over her white tank top she'd been sleeping in. she straightened out her white shorts and then put on her slippers, opening the door into the hallway to start the day. as she was tying her hair up on a bun on top of her head, tricity saw reflecto in the hallway looking curiously at the paintings.* flec? hey flec, are you ok?? *she asked touching him lightly on the shoulder. he jumped in surprise, causing her to jump as well.* geez...! are you okay?!
Reflecto smiled at the first familiar thing he'd seen which he actually knew. "Hi Ms. Tipper...who's Flec?" he said, with a confused look upon his already bemused face.
flec...what's up with you? are you sure you're ok? *she put both her hands on each of his shoulders to keep him steady and not rock back and forth.* why are you acting like buddah? *tricity put her right hand on his forehead and it felt a little above normal, but didnt seem to be serious. she then put the hand on his cheek as he seemed to be gazing behind her. tricity turned around, but saw no one there. tricity then stared back at reflecto, looking him in the eye.* honey?? HEY! *she said, trying to snap him back into looking at her and also back to reality.* what's wrong?
