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.

>>I can imagine that. Now I feel like a movie star
“And when we are done you will look like one.” Kate chuckled.
>>Haven't been sleeping well lately?
“No I’m fine why do you ask.” Kate tried to ask as if the question was odd and out of the blue but wasn’t doing a very good job of it. Kate knew she probably looked horrible. Every time she tried to sleep she had nothing but music and notes running through her head. She had been going down to the music room and playing till early in the morning just so she could get a few hours sleep.
"Hell yeah" Maya smirked "Hollywood, here I come. Hottest actress and hottest actor at the same time."
That sounded like an awfully funny idea. Hollywood liked genderbending anyway.
>>“No I’m fine why do you ask.”
"Cuz ya look like ya've been up in the past three days without sleep?" she point out, glad that they were not talking about the black eye anymore "C'mon princess you can tell me."
"Uh-huh" Maya hummed, not easily convinced. "Distracted by what?"
She glanced into the mirror, and the black eye looked a lot less... black than it did before. That was ain improvement. Maybe she would get away with the whole thing without Twy and Sam noticing. If they did not look too closely.
"Guy?" she guessed at the source of the distraction. That was the most obvious guess. Kate was pretty, and the school was full of guys running around hitting on girls like her. Kate felt like a sister to her; she wanted to know who had his dirty eyes on the princes...
Kate gently brushed her finger on the eye to blend the makeup into it, “Sorry and no. It’s not a boy. Ever since the whole thing in England and everyone knowing about that I don’t even get bothered much.” Kate was saddened at the thought of her first few weeks back. All of the stares and whispers still haunted her, but her music had become a well needed distraction. It gave her a chance to recede into herself and play it better.
>>“Sorry and no. It’s not a boy. Ever since the whole thing in England and everyone knowing about that I don’t even get bothered much.”
"They're gonna forget" Maya said reassuringly, looking at her face; Kate did a good job making the bruise disappear "Kids always find somethin' new to talk about, every other day."
Smoothing her hair back from her face, she smiled a bit at Kate.
"So, if it ain't a guy, then what is it?" she asked curiously; she was a bit concerned about whatever had been keeping Kate up at night. Well, at least it was not a guy.
>>They're gonna forget. Kids always find somethin' new to talk about, every other day. So, if it ain't a guy, then what is it?
“I don’t’ want to talk about it. I am worried about jinxing myself.” Kate finished up the eye and put everything away on her vanity. The audition was slowly creeping up on her and she really didn’t’ want to get anyone else’s hope up so she could disappoint them when she didn’t’ get in
“Alright you are all done,” Kate picked up a small mirror and handed it to Maya so she could check her work.
>>I knew it something's up. All right, princess, you don't have to tell me what it is, just tell me ya're all right, okay?
“I will be fine. I promise.” Kate lied
>>That looks awesome. Thank you. Now I can get away with bein' punched in the face without... umm, some people noticing...
“Then we have achieved the goal. I’m glad it is to your liking. If you want I have wipes that can remove all that makeup before you go to bed and then I can reapply it for you tomorrow. It will be far less guessing the second time around.” Kate forced a smile as she turned to put away the mirror as well.

"Thank you" Maya smiled, hopping off the bed "It's much better."
She really wanted to just take Kate's word for being all fine. She really did. But she was the kind of friend who asks questions.
"Well... I mean, I wish you good luck for... whatever it is that's keepin' you awake. And if, y'know, you need any help or anything, you know where to find me."
She was willing to help. With anything. Even with guys.
