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.

*tricity and orion came into the noisy kitchen, where children where running about and screaming.* hey...hey...HEY!! *orion whistled loudly and they all stopped and looked over. she smiled at him and then looked at the kids.* ok...here are the choices. chicken nuggets, spaghetti, or turkey. you know the voting system, so raise your hand when i say the choice you want. *the voting ended up with spaghetti and tricity handed out jobs to everyone like getting ingredients and grabbing big pots for boiling.*
Orion started to help everyone with dinner. Feeling out of place he only stepped in when someone needed help. He watched her work with the kids. He always liked to watch her with the kids. After a while he noticed that the tables needed setting so he set about that task.
*after about a half hour, the meatballs, spaghetti, and garlic bread was ready to eat. the kids separated into the dining room and the kitchen and helped themselved for dinner. tricity and orion sat at the end of the table in the kitchen, where it was a little less loud.* thanks for the help...
"Its ok, hun. Besides im starting to get used to kids." he simled as he ruffled the hair of one little one next to him. The little ones fork slipped form her hand and landed in a puddle of sauce on her plate, splashing Orions face. There he sat, dressed in his usual black, the biggest figure in the mansion possibly one of the most powerful as well with spaghetti sauce splattered across his face.
*tricity bust out laughing as did the other kids when they all saw what happened. the girl whose hair he ruffled took some water from her glass and poured it on a napkin.* ooo, rachel wait! *but the little girl smashed the cold, drenched, cloth napkin on orion's lap after she climbed onto the table, crawling over to where he was sitting. tricity tried to hold back the giggling as rachel wiped the sauce all over orion, trying her best to clean him off, with no success.*
Orion still hadnt moved and was attempting to allow this little girl to clean him up but it wasnt working so well. After Tricity had pulled her off and gotten him a rag to clean himself off with, he turned to her and said.
"And one other thing I will be looking for on the newer models......built in tissue dispenser, with cleaning solution." he muttered as he finally became clean again.
*tricity smiled and kissed him on the cheek, making all the kids tease and giggle.* hey...finish up! *they all continued eating and talking again. tricity turned to orion.* yea, we definitely should get a new model... *suddenly there was a chopper heard overhead and the security system started beeping. tricity and orion stood up simultaneously, looking up at the ceiling.* what is that?
"Im going to find out, and your going to evacuate all the kids to my cave via the underground I showed you. Ill call your cell when and if its safe to come back." he said making for the door already.
NO!! *she said jogging up to him.* i'm coming too... *tricity rushed over to johnathon.* lead everyone to the underground passage to orion's cave, got it? *he nodded.* find billy and make him go upstairs to get everyone else...if you cant make it to the passage, go into the danger room secret basement and dont open it for anyone but us, ok? *he nodded again. she ran back over to orion as the others organized themselves.* i'm not leaving you alone...
The scene in the kitchen hadn't been too bad when Mike and Daria arrived. The teenage students had argued about what they'd cook for dinner, thrown food at each other as tempers flared, cleaned it up, and realized that most of them had thrown the very food they'd wanted to prepare. In the end, beef stew ended up winning out.
It didn't take much persuading for Mike and Daria to get them to clean up what little evidence remained of the Dinner War. Pretty soon, the kitchen was running smoothly. The older kids were cooking, the younger ones were setting the table, and Mike and Daria were managing it all.

One of the younger teens, the one Daria had left in charge of the kids while in the living room walked in with Jimmy, Celeste and all the younger kids who were't already seated.
Celeste immediatly ran over to Daria who was looking for milk in the fridge and wrapped her arms around the cat- girls legs. Tickling her with her tail Daria lifted the girl up and smiling. "You behaved so well today in the living room. Thank you"
Celeste's eyes twinkled in the bright lights of the kitchen "You're welcome. Is everything okay?"
Daria couldn't help but be a bit amazed at the clarity of thought in the little girl. Being a spiritual person, Daria often wondered how much children knew. "Everything will be just fine, don't you worry a bit." she said leaning over and looking for milk, still holding Celeste.
"We can't be out of Milk, that's impossible." she muttered to herself.
Suddenly Celeste laughed. "kitty" she said watching Daria's earings jingle in her ears. "Milk for the kitty"
A carton of Milk appeared before Daria's face. Just like the carton she'd been picturing. She was startled at first but then reached for the carton. When she did so her hand went right through it. The carton dissappeared and in it's place a small ribbon floated to the ground. Celeste grinned and Daria's eyes widened. She turned to the little girl.
"You're an illusionist?" she asked. Celeste just kept smiling. The ribbon was real enough, in fact it matched the ones in her hair. Apparently she used real objects to create her illusions. "That's amazing. Doesn't solve my milk issue but its still pretty cool."
Mike just chuckled. "Jimmy, go run to the big fridge and get another gallon of milk, okay?"
The little boy rushed off to comply as Mike helped the students at the stove. Janie finally came walking up to Mike and tugged on the leg of his pants.
"Where's Ms. Tipper?"
Mike closed his eyes for a moment before looking back at Janie. "Remember how I told you that she wasn't feeling good? She went back to her room to take a nap."
One of the older kids looked up at him. "What's this announcement she wanted to make? It have anything to do with the soldiers you shot up on the front lawn?"
Mike gave him a scathing glare. "I didn't 'shoot up' any soldiers, and I'd appreciate it if you stayed off that subject entirely. And no, it doesn't have anything to do with that."
"So you know what it is? Come on, tell us!"
Mike just shrugged, walking away from the over-curious group. "She'll tell you when she wakes up. Right now, just remember to stir your pot."

Daria laughed at the scene. She put Celeste down and the girl clung to her neck a minute before letting go. Jimmy gave Daria the milk and, after pouring a glass she discreetly walked over to Mike.
"I wanna know what the announcement was, please." she said playfully tugging at his sleeve as if she were a little kid. She was actually very serious, though.
"Well, it'll be out among us once Tricity has a chance to tell us, so as long as you PROMISE not to let anyone know I told you..." Mike reached into the fridge and pulled out a Coke.
"Ah, good, I'm so thirsty," he commented, pretending to be distracted from telling her just so he can tease her a little.
