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.

"A what?" Hairpin asked, confused. She'd never seen or heard of a corndog before. She followed Daria towards where the food stands were. Cotton Candy was on one side, hotdogs, corndogs and others were on the other side.

"I'm not a big fan of them but I feel like everyone should taste one at some point." She purchased hot dogs and fries as well and cotton candy, swirled with pink and blue.
She handed the corndog to Kitty and let the girl to a wooden table with benches. She sat down.
Hairpin sat down and took a bite of the corndog. She chewed, swallowed, and set the corndog on a napkin. "I don't like corndogs." she said, grabbing a hotdog and stuffing it in her mouth.
Hairpin thought for a second. She counted off on her fingers, and decided that she'd seen what she wanted. "Nope, anything YOU want to see Daria?" she asked.
Hairpin hugged Daria again. "Yes!" she said simply. This was perhaps one of the happiest days of the young girl's life. Dafi scurried out and joined in on the hug.

Daria laughed as the rabbit climbed on Kitty's head and reached it's paws up to squeeze Daria's face. She was glad that the girl could relax for a while. If the stress was too much for Daria too handle it would sure be too much for Hairpin. She was so happy that the girl had arrived home safely.
"Alright" she said brushing her trash into the garbage can. What do you say we hit the gift shop? I'm sure Sarah will need some cheering up. She was terrified yesterday."
"Allright m... Daria." Hairpin said. There it was again, another near-mom incident. Hairpin grabbed Daria's arm to be led to the gift shop. "I think Sarah would like a monkey stuffed animal." she said with a smile.

Daria noted the near verbal slip and smiled to herself.
"Yeah, I was just about to say Monkey." She quickly grabbed the extra cotton candy she had bought for the girls and let Hairpin lead her to the shop.
It was filled with books and jewelry, puzzles and videos. Daria qucikly grabbed a stuffed panda and a monkey that had velcro hands. She motioned around the whole store.
"Alright, I didn't forget you. What do you want? You can have whatever, as long as its not too noisy and any stuffed animal that can fit sdeways in the back seat."
Hairpin's eyes lit up when she saw it. A small children's sized bunny costume, the same color as the fur on Dafi. Hairpin pointed furiously at the costume. "That! I want that!" she said, completely forgetting manners with the excitement. " I mean, can I have that Daria?" she asked more politely, flashing another "i'm too cute for you to say no to" smile.

Daria laughed and grabbed a suit holding it up to Kitty to see if it fit. "Of course you can have it, I said anything. And not only is this quiet but it can be folded." she grinned and got on line.
Only two customers were ahead of them. Hairpin kept glancing at the floor, then at Daria, as if she was contempltating on saying something. "D... Daria? Can I call you mommy?" she asked almost nervously.

Daria was fumbling through her wallet for a credit card and had just moved up a space in line when kitty spoke. "Um..." she said her ears rotating in a full circle.
"...Why?" she was actually surprised to see she had such an effect on the girl. She had been trying very hard and without realizing it she'd kind of begun to consider kitty to be her daughter anyways.
