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.

well since it was dark, i didnt see ire or much of anyone. as i knocked gorgon back, i went to find you through the darkness. the lightning energy gave me a light that i could see with. when i finally came up to where you three were fighting, i saw ire about to kill chaos. i...i think i called out to him to stop and he turned to face me. he disappeared into the night again. i found you, injured...and hurting. when i came to you, he jumped out from the sky, blade in hand. i used a lightning surge and blocked the attack for a moment. we held each other at bay, but we finally were sent flying backward and he got a hit off. *she showed him her shoulder.*
*tricity looked up at orion and then over at the doc, confused.* serapis? who is that? *the doc shrugged.* docprof: "i dont know...by the name, i would guess someone he knew from a very long time ago." *tricity's watch began to go off, nearly giving them all a heart attack. it was ringing to let her know it was time to for class.* oh shit...johnathon.. *he turned to her.* can..can you tell the students that.. *johnathon touched her shoulder and nodded, understanding there would be no class today. he hurried out of the room and downstairs.*
RI!! RI!! DOC!! DOC, COME HERE!! *the docprof ran over to her and tricity began rambling.* i...i dont know..he started mumbling...his body...it..it tensed and...something's wrong! doc, please...do something!! *the doctor put his hands above orion and the golden glow emitted from his hands.* docprof: "he's lost...have a terrible nightmare about johnathon." *johnathon heard this and came over. tricity squeezed orion's hand even harder. with her other hand, she seized johnathon by the shirt and pulled him toward her.* tell him youre ok, john... *the young man swallowed and then spoke.* johnathon: "mr. orion...it's johnathon. i'm ok. it's...it's just a dream. wake up now, sir." *tricity smiled at john and then looked at the docprof for some sign.* docprof: "he's hurting." *tricity collapsed to the ground and started crying as she held his hand.* ri...ri please...please, dont leave me...dont leave us... *the doctor told johnathon to pick tricity up, which he did. john helped her over the chair she had once sat in and wheeled it up to orion's bed. she lay her head down on his arm.*
i...i dont know...frankly, it doesnt matter. *she answered, looking at the unconscious orion.* docprof: "delilah...you need to worry for yourself...and your baby." *tricity turned around, shocked at what he said.* wha...you mean? for sure?? docprof: "yes...for sure. the battle last night did heavy damage on you. you must be careful. do you understand? you cant strain yourself anymore. i need to watch over you more specifically now because last night might have caused...problems." problems?? what do you mean problems?? docprof: "delilah, the pregnancy might have problems if i dont watch over you. ok?" *she nodded her head, unable to speak. tricity looked down at her stomach and then back at orion. she pulled his hand to her face and held it there.* docprof: "you need to lie down, child." no... docprof: "delilah..." NO! *he didnt argue anymore and went to tend to the others.*
**IRE STOP!! *ire looked at tricity for a moment and then disappeared in the darkness. she looked at chaos who lay there hurt and then heard ire scream as he came at orion.* ORION!! *she dove in front of the strike, using a ball of electricity in her hand as a shield. the two held one another at bay for a moment, but were sent backward, his blade stabbing her in the shoulder, and he receiving a small shock. tricity tumbled to the ground, next to orion as he saw what happened........ire quickly stood again, grabbing his sword and embedding it into orion's chest.** NOOO!! *tricity woke with a start, sitting upright in the bed. the lights in the room went out and she looked around nervously, trying to understand where she was. she looked over to her side and saw orion lying in the next bed. ignoring the iv unit plugged into her arm, tricity jumped out of the bed and flung herself at orion.* ORION!! ORION, WAKE UP!! RI! RI, PLEASE!! *the doc prof awoke with a start as tricity screamed. he rushed over to her and pulled her back.* docprof: "CHILD!! child, it's ok...DELILAH!!" *he said loudly, turning her around by the shoulders to face him.* docprof: "it's ok...he's ok...he'll be fine..." *tricity immediately began to cry and the doc put her head to his shoulder.* docprof: "it's ok...everything is fine." *after a moment of weeping, she picked her head up from his shoulder and looked around the room. ire, gorgon, and chaos were still unconscious.* are they o...ok? *the docprof shook his head 'yes'.* docprof: "they will all recover...orion needs some time though." *she walked over to his bed and dropped to her knees, crying on his hand softly as she pulled it over to her.* ri...ri, i'm sorry....i'm sorry i couldnt help you... docprof: "dont blame yourself, delilah. you had no hand in this." *he moved the iv pole closer to her and fixed the line going into her arm, making tricity more comfortable. he put a pillow on the floor to put her knees on as well.*
*tricity came into the infirmary and saw a few kids who had bruises on their knees and foreheads from the hysteria. her heart sank, but she put on a fake smile as the doc came over to her.* docprof: "dont even try it, delilah." damn...is there anything you dont miss or know? docprof: "hardly. now sit on a table so i can look at you." no one is hurt badly, right? *she asked taking her shirt off as the doctor pulled the curtain around them and the bed.* docprof: "no, not at all. just a few cuts that a bandaid and a little healing wont fix." *he said, looking at the gash. he put his hands over the wound and the familiar golden glow began.* docprof: "this doesnt look so bad." yea, i figured as much... *suddenly the warm feeling of his powers stopped and she turned to face him.* what? what's wrong? docprof: "oh...it's nothing, child." doc, please... docprof: "is there anything you dont miss or know?" *he said, touching her hand.* what's wrong?? *he swallowed and looked in her eyes intently.* docprof: "you and orion..." yes?? docprof: "you two, well...earlier today you two..." *her eyebrows raised as he tried to speak what was on his mind.* we what?? docprof: "in your bed..." o..OH! yes, yes...we did. why? and how did you know? docprof: "well you know i get flashes when i look over a wound. i saw this also...anything to do with health." oh god...what is it?? doc come on, out with it! docprof: "i think you are pregnant..." *tricity froze for a moment.* n...no...doc, no. i mean, this is deja vu all over again. how could you know so early?? docprof: "i'm not sure exactly. you might not be...it's just a feeling." a feeling?? *he nodded and put an old finger to his lips to indicate for her to keep her voice down.* so it isn't definite? *he nodded again.* well...dont tell orion then. only definites are important, ok? docprof: "yes child. just take it easy then, ok?" *she swallowed hard and got down off the table, leaving the infirmary to head to her room.*
shut up... i'm gonna do my rounds. you stay with him for a while, but come to bed after the doc puts him out...ok? *she said, kissing orion on the cheek and then patting the docprof on his shoulder. tricity walked out of the infirmary to make sure the kids were ok.*
*tricity walked over to the archer again and as she did, xavier popped into her head.* xavier: "the archer..." yea, i recognized him as he was lying here... *orion and the docprof looked at tricity like she was crazy, but she pointed her finger to her temple.* it's xavier.... xavier: "he's a 'super hero' if you will in the area...that woman he was with is some kind of telepath as well, making it hard for me to get into her mind. when the archer awakens, asks him questions." yea, i know...I'll CALL YOU when we get some answers.. *tricity heard him chuckle and then his presence vanished from her mind.*
*the doc put his hand over the man, his hands glowing as the memories of the bank entered his mind. tricity looked at archer up and down and then at the doc.* docprof: "he is not a mutant..." yea, we figured...
*tricity suddenly let go of every particle of electricity in her. the lights went back on, her eyes turned back to green, and the blue ora disappeared. her stomach lurched and a sad expression fell over her face. her eyes watered up and a tear fell down her cheek.* how...how could you say that?? that was no fault of his...savior was possessed with something i thought could be controlled. he had it under control for so long...he was naturally a good guy... THAT *she said pointing to chaos lying down.* is not naturally good. he is evil and always will be...you'll see. that boy died protecting this place, orion! but you wouldnt know that since you werent here... *a few more tears fell down her face and tricity walked out of the infirmary and down to her room to be alone.*
