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 laughed. "it's pretty cool. Um, i had a run in with my best friend's sister who hates me. And...she got some goons to cut my stomach open." Daria lifted her shirt to show Nika the long ropey scar and the stitches that looked more like staples. "I'm better. As soon as I got here I got hurt. Right on the chin" She showed her a very faint scar. "A dragon on the top of the school gave it to me. ahah. I'd complain but that's how I met my fiance...he saved me from the dragon.
"Ohhh. Well, that sounds like you got lucky." Nika instantly blushed. "Umm..I didn't mean in the naughty sort of way." She waited a moment for her reddness to go away. "Mine aren't so cool. I was used for pit fighting like an animal for most of my childhood. My adopted father used to bet people that I could beat them and when I was finally able to start fighting back they decided to start putting dogs in to fight me." Her head lowered in a shamefull manner and her cheeriness vanished.

Iris skidded in the hallways on her way back to the Danger Room. To her surprise, Crystal was still floating in the air in the middle of the room. When Iris ran in, the 'book' she was reading disappeared in a show of sparks. She gave Iris a bored glare.
"'bout time you remembered me. Glad to see you care."
"Yeah, yeah. Good to see you too. End program."
The hologram vanished, and Iris detached her phone from the computer, then turned and headed back to the infirmary in another headlong rush. She slid into the room, grabbing the doorframe to keep from losing her balance, and/or plowing into Jason.
"Sorry! Sorry." She blinked, confused at first upon seeing another cat-like mutant by the bedside. Then she smiled, seeing Nika was awake. A relieved sigh escaped her lips. "Wow, you had me worried! Are you okay?" Then she blushed, and managed an awkward bow toward the other girl. "I... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt. Um... I'm Iris." She quickly clipped her phone to her belt, then held out her hand to shake.
Suddenly the sound of Iris' voice sparked the life back in Nika's cheery personality. "Iris! Where have you been?" Her face lit up with a big smile. "I'm sorry I scared you. I didn't mean to."
Gesturing to the other cat like person near her Nika introduced Iris as she wasn't sure if they had ever met. "Iris, this is Daria. I met her when I first got here and she gave me her old room."

"That's horrible." Was all Daria could say in response to Nika's sad tale. She patted the girl affectionately on the head.
When Iris was introduced Daria smiled and waved. "You're not interupting, it's nice to meet you too. As I was telling these guys, just try and ask an older student to monitor you in the danger room. You're not in trouble this time." she was still smiling good naturedly.
Daria's patting of Nika's head made the young cat girl purr. With an embarrased look she turned to Daria. "I'm sorry. I can't help but do that when people pet or pat me." Her tail flicked in a happy sort of way. "Didn't you mention something about wanting to get to know more about me Daria? I'd sure like to know more about you especially since we seem to be so similar."
Nika looked back at Iris, Jason and Kesuk to see what they were doing. She didn't want to make them feel left out. Nika was happy that so many people seemed to care for her. It was something she had never experienced before. The feeling was warm and comforting and she wanted them to know she cared about them as well.
Nika moved over a bit to let Daria on the bed. She smiled as she wasn't quite expecting that but she didn't mind it one bit. In fact she found herself still purring for some reason. "Yes I was born like this. That's why my parents put me up for adoption. I guess they didn't want a freak of nature for a daughter."
The young girl looked Daria over. "So how did you get your caat features? They just grew on you?"

Daria smiled. "Yeah, well I was in car accident." she said, her ears flattened against her head. "and i lost my parents. I was so scared, but somehow I managed to get out of the car and..I don't know."she laughed gently. "the tail and ears just happened."
"I'm dying to know what it was that triggered it but I haven't been able to figure it out.
"And I've never met another cat girl. And although you have a little more fur than I do, I think I'm closer to a cat genetically than you might be. You seem pretty human to me." she joked, petting Nika once more. "cept for the purring..that's pretty catty,"
"Ohh. I'm sorry to hear you lost your parents. Are you ok?" Nika wrapped her arms around Daria and hugged her.
"I wonder what it was that made either of us have these features." Nika teased one of Daria's ears to make it flick. "Why do you say that you think I'm more human than you?"

"Iris! Where have you been? I'm sorry I scared you. I didn't mean to."
"I...um, kinda forgot Crystal....in the hurry." Iris chuckled. "And no worries. I'm just glad you're okay.
"It's nice to meet you Daria."
"You're not interupting, it's nice to meet you too. As I was telling these guys, just try and ask an older student to monitor you in the danger room. You're not in trouble this time."
Iris flushed red comically, and managed a weak smile. "Uh, yeah, will do. Thanks." Technically she was suppose to the 'older student', but in this case age had nothing on experience, so she would be more than happy to look for help next time.
Fatigue finally set in, now that the emergency was over, and Iris was happy to just sink into a chair and listen to the girls talk. Their mutations definately interested her, but eventually the quiet talk began to take effect. Her head began nodding, and soon she was fast asleep, curled up in the chair.

Daria decided to stay in Nika's arms, she had little else to do.
"You know, sometimes I really miss them...but since I've come to the mansion I've made new friends and they become like family. I've become like a mother to so many of the kids here...." she shrugged. "If it hadn't been for that crash my life would've been so different...I think I would've been unhappy." she confessed with a smile.
"Oh well, the mouse conversation we had." she laughed. "I ate a raw chicken....and a pigeon. I just feel like I have more animalistic tendencies than you do, but I could be wrong. Am i?"
"Well, I'm sure if it meant my survival I would eat whatever was around but on a normal basis no I wouldn't" Nika smiled sweetly. "Well, I like laying in the sun and I hate getting wet. I like big fluffly pillows and yes I purr alot." her cheeks blushed slightly.
Kesuk sat there by Nika's side waiting ever so patiently by her side. He had began to fidget and move around but didnt wake up. So he had grasped her hand even more tightly, promising to himself to never let go until she had woken up. Then Jason had tried to cheer him up, telling him that it wasnt him fault, so Kesuk looke up in amazement about to say thankyou but he went off again how it was Kesuks fault so he had given Jason another sarcastic smile and continued to lie his head on Nika's cot.
After a while another girl walked in and she also had cat features he was amazed. First he had never seen anyone with cat features until Nika, and now there was two. Then they began talking and Kesuk didnt want to interupt however the conversation was going on for a while so Kesuk intoduced himself. " Hello im Kesuk. its a pleasure to meet you" kesuk said while putting his hand out and his other hand on nika's shoulder

Daria nodded. "I like yarn....fish...warm milk...or cold milk actually. I don't purr nearly as much as I hiss. I end up chasing things, catnip is AMAZING...."
She turned to Kesuk. "Hi, I'm Daria. Like I said earlier, if you're anything like my Fiance, then I think I know what you're feeling, and it's not your fault." she grinned and took his hand.
