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.

With the wave returned back from the other girl in the room Victoria turned her red eyes to Kait. The blonde girl nervously chewed on her lower lip and nodded. She noticed Kait’s discretion and tried to follow along. “Oh ok. Umm…yes it is.”
Victoria was feeling the hunger within her, the feeling of fire slowly building up. She did her best to keep her composure, but her pleading eyes and her fidgeting told a different story. She had let herself go as long as she could without losing control. That time was quickly running out now. If Kait didn’t have the blood packs Victoria would be forced to find another source to feed from.

With both of the older females noticing the little blonde’s change in expressions and questioning her Victoria snapped herself out of her thoughts. Shaking her head she looked up at them both. “It’s nothing. I’m ok.” Looking up to the tall red haired woman. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Just like a switched had been flipped the young girl’s face light up as it had been earlier. “It’s nice to talk with you now Emerald! You’re very pretty!”

Victoria listened as Serena commented on her experience in the mansion so far. It brought a little smile to the girl’s face. The taller blonde had been very nice so far. Victoria was liking her more and more as they continued to talk and hang out.
When the girl was about to say something a new person crossed their path. Victoria hadn’t seen this person before, but he sounded helpful enough. “Umm..hi! I’m Victoria! We’re trying to find someone who can help my friend Serena.” Victoria gave a slight gesture to the taller blonde. “She got her last night, but we haven’t found anyone who can say it’s ok for her to stay here and get a room and stuff.”

Miles’ suggestion of playing with his dogs now sounded better than accidentally hurting the boy again. Victoria ran off to her room and grabbed a light blanket. Tucking it under her little arm she ran back to where she had left Miles and Penelope. The mutant dogs had joined them already.
Handing the blanket to Miles Victoria lowered her head a little. “Umm…Miles? I’m really sorry for hurting you. I didn’t mean it. I’m very sorry.”

Walking the mansion hallways was almost like a maze…ok, it was a maze to someone who was still learning it’s inner workings. It didn’t even dawn on the girl to bring the map she had been given by Emerald. So they were on their own wandering around hoping to find someone to help Serena.
Heading down one of the halls Serena questioned the smaller girl about the people in the mansion. “I haven’t met everyone here. Really I’ve only met a handful of people, but they were all mutants.” The second question Victoria knew even less about. “Umm…I’m not sure but I’d say it might be possible.” Was her own mutation under control?
Serena’s sentence barely finished and Victoria saw Emerald dash out of the library and down the hall. Smiling the girl tried to run out into the hallway before their four-legged friend disappeared. She managed to spot Emerald turning down another hallway and the little blonde looked at the map where the kitchen was labeled.
“This way Serena! We got a wolf to catch!” Victoria waited for the taller girl and then ran through the hallways in chase of the wolf named Emerald. A slight giggle escaped her throat as she ran.
Upon reaching the kitchen Victoria’s eyes immediately noticed a very tall red-haired female eating an apple. The girl stopped dead in her tracks with wide eyes. She had never seen a girl so tall, but listening to the female talk Victoria quickly understood it was Emerald.
Wait…so she changed during a full moon? She forgot to eat? Was Emerald a werewolf and did she eat people? Victoria’s own fears of her darker side rose up and the girl became a bit less cheerful and started to draw into herself some. It was as if a dark shroud suddenly enveloped the little blonde girl. She simply nodded in acknowledgement to Emerald’s explanation.
With the successful attack against the Miles zombie and Victoria crashing into his back she didn’t see what happened to Miles. When the boy came to an abrupt halt against the sofa Victoria was sent rolling off his back and landed on the hard floor on her rump. “Oof!”
Getting up and brushing herself off the blonde looked to Miles as he spoke in a strange tone. His voice sounded funny. Was he trying to make Penelope and herself laugh, or was it part of him turning back to a human? She wasn’t sure, but she also wasn’t sure what to say about it so she let it go.
With the confirmation of the victory over the Miles zombie the red eyed girl smiled and looked to Penelope. “We did it! We saved the mansion!”
Miles brought up playing with his dogs. At first Victoria hesitated as she remembered the black animals with glowing eyes, but then she recalled Miles making them dance. A soft giggle escaped her throat, but with Penelope’s burst of questions the giggle rose in volume. “Yes, I like dogs but I never had one of my own.” “What are we going to play with your dogs Miles?”

Victoria also hoped the wolf girl would change so she could see what the mutant looked like in human form. Plus it really would make communicating easier. Thought the little blonde did find it pretty cool that Serena and herself had been talking to a wolf. It was like a fairytale.
Suddenly there was a growl sound but it sounded different than a dog’s warning. What could it have…wait…it kind of sounded like when someone is hungry. Turning with a smile to Serena Victoria’s face lit up as if she had discovered something like a detective. “I think Emerald is a hungry wolf. We should go to the kitchen so we can feed her.”

It didn’t take long for someone to answer the room door. In fact, Victoria thought she heard Kait call out that she was going to be the one to answer the knocks on the door. A smile spread across the red-eyed girl’s face. “Hi Kait.” With the door open Victoria couldn’t help but glance into the room and noticed another female.
Victoria couldn’t remember if Kait had mentioned having a roommate. Maybe she did the last time they met on that bloody night, or maybe it had been brought up one day in class. No matter the case there was a second person in the room. A quick wave from waist high was directed to the other girl. “Hi.”
Hesitation started to set in as red eyes refocused on Kait. “I’m sorry. Umm…is this a bad time?” Fingers laced together and thumbs rubbed over each other. She hoped Kait had kept her word about Victoria’s dark secret. At the same time the blood drinker also hoped her friend had been able to get what she needed.

After their strange tour the night before with Emerald was over, Victoria offered to let Serena stay in her room since she didn’t have any place to go. It was the least the girl could do for the older blonde. She wanted to help as much as she could.
The next evening Victoria woke up just a little before Serena, but the older girl didn’t stay asleep much longer. So they freshened up, Victoria changed dresses and they set out into the hallways again. “It’s ok Serena. You were probably just tired.” Looking up at the taller girl Victoria noticed the increased energy in Serena. Maybe it was from getting a good day’s sleep.
Victoria was used to the hallways being fairly quiet when she was awake. Once in awhile she’d cross paths with others in the mansion. Tonight they hoped to find someone who could officially accept Serena to the mansion and get her a room and everything.

Mister Holloway’s explanation made sense to the girl. Part of her was glad he had such an ability. She was liking her teacher the more she got to be around him so she was glad he couldn’t get hurt. He made her feel more comfortable the more they talked and just the way he talked to her was kind and polite.
Making their way to the kitchen Mister Holloway asked a question that, for once, made her feel uncomfortable. “I never go out during the daytime.” Victoria shook her head and wrapped herself in her own arms. "It hurts so much." The girl avoided any and all contact with sunlight as much as possible as she didn't want to chance getting burned.
