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.

His relief was palpable when she finally started coughing up water and gasping for air. Drew had been worried for a matter of seconds there that he'd done something wrong or hadn't gotten to her in time. After all she was a fire elemental and he did remember that cold hurt her. Kate pulled him into a hug and thanked him. Drew just smiled a little in relief. He'd have given her his shirt but sadly it was no more. He'd be taking that up with the young punk that had done this to them. They'd put Kate in serious danger and that was NOT ok.
"Not exactly what I was picturing for cooling my head but it'll do. Let's get you inside so you can dry off and change."
He almost immediately picked her up and carried her but after their fight there he hesitated, remembering some of what she said.
"Do you want to walk or should I carry you?"
The last thing they needed right now was to start fighting again because he'd tried to be nice and had it come off as condescending to her.
At first the fact that the near-unclad woman did not have an inkling of how to swim shocked Granny beyond action. AN interesting sensation, surely, which she had not enjoyed for quite some time. The shaking of her hands on her walking stick had given a particular close approximation of Parkinsons at that point. She did not quite dare recall how long she had looked at those moving hands of hers, not feeling that they did indeed peruse movement. But even as she contemplated undoing her shipwrecking of the two young lovers she saw that she had possibly not lost but gained from her actions. This revelation somewhat steadied her hands. And made her smile quite optimistically through the window she had been watching from. And watch those two she would. And lead them to their proper places.
Proper being, of course, what she decided. She resolved to follow the pair to where they were going and mark the location. If only she were a little better at sneaking. But right now she was a teacher here. And therefore she had good reasons for snooping everywhere. Yes, also in your bedroom.

(Turn and actions taken with the permission of Kate.)
Kate's response to his question was to cling to him. It made sense. She was probably freezing to death and he was a warm body. Drew picked her up and held her as close as possible.
"Come on, let's get inside."
If they had a towel out here at all he'd stay out here. However even his shirt was out of commission so that was no good. So they'd have to go indoors. Kate wasn't exactly dressed to handle the air conditioning even if she was normal girl. As it was she'd be freezing. Still, he carried her indoors, feeling her flinch and curl against him further the moment they hit the cold air. Drew sped up as much as he could while still keeping a firm grasp on her. The sooner he got her to her room the better.
They were up the stairs and to Kate's room in record time, if he did say so him. Drew carefully set her on her feet.
"You get yourself dried off, warmed up, and dressed and meet me down in the kitchen when you're ready."
Judging by that fight and the mess that happened after they really could stand to talk.
Kate clung to the warmth of Andrew for dear life. She knew she wasn’t going to die from this, not even slightly, but at the moment she was cold and Andrew was warm.
>>Come on, let's get inside.
Kate felt the cold air conditioning hit her like a ton of bricks. Her body tensed up and started shaking as she buried her head face into Andrew’s bare shoulder and tried to pull herself even closer to him. She took a deep shaky breath out of him and for a moment was distracted by the sweet musk of his neck. He really smelt rather nice.
It was forever before Andrew was putting her down on the warm wood floor of her room.
>>You get yourself dried off, warmed up, and dressed and meet me down in the kitchen when you're ready.
She nodded shakily and moved to quickly close all the windows and door before cranking the heat as high as it would go. She ripped off her wet bathing suit she ran into her closet, grabbing the warmest clothes she could find. Sure she looked like a bit slubby but she was warmer.
In only minutes she was dressed and under her covers as the shivering subsided. It was going to take a bit before she could join Andrew downstairs.
