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.

Emerald held Millie a bit protectively as the annocment came on, she listened and her eyes were a bit wider than usual. This was absolutely insane in her opinion, this was getting to be as bad as Fusionist.
Emerald also knew that if they checked her records she would be one of the first mutants on thier target list. She hugged millie gently, nuzzling the little girls cheek.
Emerald watched as the other people entered groggily, the blood loss finally getting to her. She felt herself attempting to fall asleep, but she stayed awake for the sole purpose of making sure nothing else bad happened.

Michael listened to the announcement in silence, trying to comprehend what they were saying. This was bad. The mansion could well be a priority target, and considering the number of mutants here if the government came here they’d come in force.
He looked over at Emerald, seeing how tired she was, and gently put a reassuring hand on her shoulder and gave her a warm smile. After the ordeal with Bloodfang Emerald did not need this, so he promised himself he’d look out for her.

"Well, they aren't gonna get me without a serious lesson in burn treatments." Ali's hands started to glow softly as she spoke only to fade away again. It was more of a visual point to drive home just how serious she was in her statement.
"I need some air so I think I'll go outside for a bit." With that The redhead made her way out of the Infirmary down through the halls and finally outside where she took a deep breath. The fresh air felt good in her lungs.
It was about this time that the doc came back, looking over a peice of paper that the rather expensive looking machien had spit out.
"Well, I didn't find a single trace of any known toxins in your blood... however, I did find some that your blood has an extremely high endorphin count... Which isn't normal in most cases so long after the body has been put through stress.
Nail stared blankly at the old man, obviously wanting him to speak english.
"It means you wearn't injected with any poison."
Nail looked parcially confused, and parcially relived, "So... what was I injected with?"
"Well... by the amount of endorphins, trace amounts of hormones, and evidence that your glands have been enflamed... I'd have to say it was an adrenaline shot."
"Adrenaline..." Nail looked blankly at the kind looking old man, but in his mind, all he could see was Kaz's triumphant smirking face.

Little Millie hated the news. When it was turned on, she frowned a bit more exaggerated than usual, but what can you expect from such a little girl? She huffed and threw her hands on top of her ears while still frowning and furrowing her brows. She looked quite funny as she did this while Emmy was holding her close. Why was Mama Emmy holding her so close? Of course, the news was stupid, it would make Millie Stupid, better not to listen to it, that's why she was being held close, so Mama Emmy would take the heat.
In a heroic and odd attempt to save Mama Emmy, Millie threw her hands off of her ears and cupped them around Emerald's ears. "...maybe if we don't liten to the newt, then it will go off." She closed her eyes tight and scrunched up her face when the Doc turned it back down. "Tee? Idn't Merlin cool?" She hugged him closely, obvious thinking that he made the volume decrease.
Emerald blinked when the little girl covered up her ears. She laughed lightly, knowing she wanted to make her relax a bit more without much avail. She gently removed the girls hands from her ears, ruffling the childs hair.
"Millie the new just wont go away." Emerald stated groggily. She yawned, feeling the blood lost getting to her. She was very tired.

Seeing that Emerald was tiered and in need of sleep Michael decided to let her rest. Instead he went over to the guy who had just sworn, loudly. “Hey man, you ok?” he asked. He didn’t recognise the guy from the problem with Iris, he didn’t want to call it a fight, but he could have been somewhere else when she made the ice maze.
“The names Michael, or Shield, which ever you prefer,” he said, “I’m kinda new here, but already have seen a fair bit of action. Were you caught up in the earlier chaos?” The guys didn’t look to have any serious injuries, at least not as bad as Emerald’s were.

Michael gave a sigh before answering. “Ok, all I know is that Iris arrived out the front, we all gathered round to help her and then she lost it. She lashed out at everyone and then tried to run. After following her and trying to calm her down we finally got her to the danger room where she stopped attacking everyone.”
“She’s kinda the reason for all the damage, but we don’t think she was in control when she did it.” Or at least he didn’t think she was in control when she did it. He hoped Iris was ok now and wouldn’t go off again.
Nail listened intently to Shield, and it took him a while to process what he was saying. So many thing were running through his brain. He imagined student walking up to the Iris he had spent so much time with in those cells in KP. He imagined he in that same state that had occured when she had burst out of that cell and tried to escape. He same colorful, and somehow at the same time emotionless, eyes. Glancing at the student before they drop to the ground clenching their head in pain.
He tried to comprehend her doing this. Trying to imagine the woman he met in the park purposely commiting to such a thing.
"No...She didn't do this on purpose."
The whole purpose they had been at KP, was to test that one girls ability to make mutants powers go haywire. They must have found a way to duplicate it. Nail definetly wouldn't put it past anyoine he had met there. That was probably thier only reason for having her their, and being nice to her. To gain what she had, and use it for themselves. It all made a sense, in a sick kind of way.
Nail snapped back to reality, realising Shield probably had a few questions. Questions Nail really didn't want to answer.
"Thanks Shield. If you see Iris, let her know Nail is fine, and that I hope she's ok."
Not wanting to stick around for much longer, he got up. He was fine, now that he knew he hadn't been poisoned, and his wound had been healed almost instantly. He briskly walked out, not really sure where he was going, he just couldn't stay here and do nothing. Something told him to get up and move.
