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.

Daria shrugged.
"That's odd, because Mike can. But he aims his thoughts at me. I mean, I can't pick it up unless its directed at me. So you could tell the bunny to just focus on my mind." She smiled. "Or maybe subconciously I block her out. My heightened senses allow for a slight telepathic resistance unless it's really strong, or I choose not to."
She sat on the bed next to Kit-Kat and folded her legs.
"Well Dafi has only been able to talk to me and Mike, maybe it's cause we're telepathic. I think she can only talk to telepaths." Hairpin said, thinking out loud. "Maybe I can do something." Hairpin continued. *Hairpin sat there for a moment, looking back and forth between Dafi and Daria. Her eyes began to glow light blue, as they did in the fight with Blunderbore. The mark on her forehead once again became a glowing third eye. Hairpin sat back suddenly, her eyes and mark returning to normal. She blinked quickly a few times, as if seeing a bright light.* "Wow... that was wierd." said the little girl. ~Can you hear me now?~ asked the rabbit in Daria's head.

Daria's ears perked up and twisted from side to side.
She nodded. ~Yeah, I mean. I can hear you.~ It was weird hearing the Dafi's thoughts as clear as she would a human's. ~You're prettty articulate for a rabbit.~
~You're pretty articulate for a human.~ replied the rabbit. ~Actually, I think my intelligence comes from her dad.~ added Dafi, with an ear pointed at Hairpin. "Yeah, Dafi and Daddy used to talk all the time in their heads. It made Mommy mad though." added Hairpin, who began again with her hairgami.
"Well..." Hairpin began. "Mommy and Daddy were scientists. They used to work for some guy named Striker, before they had me. When I was born, they got transferred to work for some other guy named Whitmore. Whenever he came over to our house, I wasn't allowed to leave my room." Hairpin said, frowning at the last statement. "That's when I made origami with my hair, when he was at the house. They always looked sad when I asked them what they did for Mr. Whitmore, but they wouldn't tell me." Hairpin said, continuing to frown, but then her face brightened up. "Mommy and Daddy were always nice, and they were really happy. Mommy would always play with me, and taught me how to do origami. Daddy taught me how to move stuff by thinking." Hairpin finished.

"Whitmore?" Daria asked afraid to sound too eager. "They worked for him? Where did you live before you came here and...exactly how did your parents..die?" she asked soflty biting her bottom lip and hoping Kitty would be alright. "If you can talk about it."
"We lived in Long Island. I don't know where Mommy and Daddy went to work though, but they always came home on weekends. No one told me how they died though." Hairpin said, watching Dafi dance.

Daria nodded. "Well thats fine. I'm gonna take good care of you so they don't have to worry about that."
She made a mental note to look into the case of the Ferreras as they could be quite helpful in understanding Whitmore, if they had anything to do with the stones. She's make a 'visit to the house with Mike.
"Scientists, huh? thats sounds cool. Do you want to be a scientist too?"
"I wanna be a princess." Hairpin said, her hair taking the shape of crown. She then used her telekinesis to crumple up an old toy from her suitcase and mold it into another crown, which floated into the air and landed on Daria's head, fitting perfectly. "And you can be a queen, and Mike the king!" added Hairpin.

Daria smiled and held the crown in place with her ears.
"Wow, thats a big responsiblity." Daria was so happy to see such an innocent untainted little eleven year old. Hell, the little kids on her block back in Dc were all talking about boys and makeup. "Well you'll be the most beautiful princess ever." she grinned. "What about Dafi?"
"Oh!" Hairpin shouted, thoroughly exited. "Mommy made this awhile ago." she said, running to her suitcase. Hairpin pulled a tiny jester's cap out of her suitcase, ran back to Dafi, and strapped it onto the bunny's head. ~I love this thing!~ said the rabbit in Daria's head, as she danced around on the bed. Apparently the bunny loved the jingle of the bells in the hat as she bounced around.

"awwwww" Daria said. "That's just precious" then she twitched her eye at the fact that she had just said precious. Then she laughed because the rabit was so damn cute.
Giggling, Hairpin floated all of Dafi's belongings out of the suitcase and laid them on the ground in front of Daria. A tiny bunny-sized bed, complete with blanket and pillow. Along with that, was a small, mysterious case, with the same shape as Hairpin's triangle mark it's front.
