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.

Desiree and Riruki walked slowely down the hallways, with desiree tracking the scent of Tricity she had recently picked up. The pair had yet to meet the headmistress. As they walked, Desiree playfully caressed Ruki's waist with a hand.
Ruki was quick to stare down any students who's glances lasted a bit too long. She was used to it and had become a bit defensive. Especially since many of the male students had been interested in her and Desiree.
The halls had pictures full of famous people and some of the old X-men. Ruki found it absolutly amazing. Drachir would've loved this exibit She thought to herself.

"Heh, I wouldn't mind joining the ranks myself." Desiree said. She was now caressing Ruki's lower back, almost massaging Rukie's lower back, her fingers pressing against the edge of the black skirt Ruki was wearing.
Ruki wasn't used to being around someone so physical but the fact of the matter was that she was supposed to be enjoying herself to the fullest capacity. She was free of the asylum and any boarding schools where she was different. Still...
(This is so beside your purpose. You're getting distracted.) Hina said sending a pang of pain through her mind. Ruki winced and grabbed Desiree's hand giving it a gentle squeeze before letting it go.

"I assume I must learn a degree of restraint around someone with your beauty Ruki-chan." Desiree said, getting the hint. "So, tell me about Drachir." Desiree said abruptly, breaking the relative silence that had ensued.
"Drachir?" she thought. "he is hard to describe. He is like my other half, I love him dearly. We know eachother like the backs of our hands. He keeps me in check for sometimes, thought it is hard to believe I can get a bit..irritated." She looked down at the laced hat that Hina was wearing. "He is courageous. I don't think he values much over his friends, which is what I like about him so much. I can only hope he is alright after we became separated."

"I'm sure he will be, Ruki." Desiree said. She sniffed the air, they were definately getting closer to Tricity. A small brown rabbit hopped by suddenly, followed by a cute, bluehaired girl. Desiree smiled at the girl, who waved back before continuing after the bunny. Turning foreward, Desiree continued forth with Riruki at her side.

"Texas origionally, my powers surfaced when I was 9 years old, and other than two billionaire brothers who on Ripley Enterprises I don't have many loved ones." Desiree said, taking on all the questions at once. "So, other than give Sould a cold nose, what can you do Ruki-chan?" Desiree asked with a grin.
Ruki smiled slightly. "I am still very sorry about that."
She thought for a minute. "To be honest, I don't know what I can do. Those strange mental spheres seem to have a different effect everytime I produce one. Sometimes they make people hot, cold, dizzy, at other time's it knocks them down or gives them bruises. But they don't always work and I can't choose which one I want to use. Sometimes they don't work on inanimate objects." She shrugged. "It's all very confusing and I wish they would go away."
Hina fidgeted in her arms as if forbidding her to say more.

"I see." Desiree said with a thoughtful look. "I don't have control over my power either." she said. She sniffed the air a few times, narrowing her eyes at the scent of cat, but following the Tricity scent.

"Well, I'm uncomfortable around them. I generally don't like cats, but I don't hate them. Soul on the other hand, despises them. I usually have to ask someone to make a cat leave the room, with Soul yelling in my head that she wants to kill it." Desiree explained.
Ruki nodded. "I understand. Its kinda like you don't completly have a hold on Soul. Like there is another person there who wants to control you and-"
(You're getting way too personal kid. Didn't we talk about this. Just stop trying to get rid of me as soon as I go you go too.) Ruki fell silent for a moment, looking down at her feet. When she looked up though, her breath stopped.
Dressed in denim jeans, vans and a Batman Tee-Shirt wasa pretty brown skinned girl with long braids that hung down her back. She looked friendly enough but she had two large black cat ears sprouting form her head and a long black tail swished lazily behind her, dragging on the floor at times before bobbing back up.
(This should be interesting.)
Ruki grabbed Desiree's hand, "Wait, maybe we should um, go back...and wait at Tricity's room, what if."
But it was too late. The cat girl had seen them and had stopped dead in her tracks.

Desiree could not help herself, and let out a low growl. "KIll, bite her! Claw, tear, rip!" Soul shouted in Desiree's head. Desiree's fingernails sharpened quickly, and her teeth became sharp as well. She didn't completely change, but some of Soul had seeped over, the part that hated cats.
