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.

Butterfly smiled and said, "Well, that's good. I hate having to try and fly in the rain. It's virtually impossible. And I'm not an evil kind of person so you don't have to worry." and then began to follow her after she grinned at Chika saying she'd make the trip a surprise. She liked surprises. Well, all the ones that ended in good things, anyway. She wondered where Chika was taking her. As she walked she tried to take in as much scenery as she could and looked at street names and buildings to sort of help her understand where to go.

Butterfly fluttered down off of her shoulder and onto the bed. She could tell that she was making Tses feel uncomfortable and didn't wanna make any more trouble for Tses. She listened as Tses spoke about being able to control her powers after practicing and time passes. As Tses continued to speak, Butterfly tried to practice shifting. She didn't exactly know where to start, but she just tried to relax her body and clear her mind. Maybe stress and overwhelming emotions had a part in making her shift. As she relaxed, Butterfly started to shift and when she opened her eyes after a few moments, she was sitting next to Tses on the bed. "Maybe I should listen to you more often."

Butterfly smiled as Chika stuck her tongue out in a teasing manner. Butterfly had been teasing as well. Butterfly said, "I'd like that. And it wouldn't be nice if you were flying and then you made it rain. Especially being a butterfly. It makes flying so much more difficult. So where do you wanna show me first? You lead the way." she said with a smile, waiting on a direction to go.

Butterfly looked at Kealey when she suggested that the two of them speak with Mariusz about our experiences being a mutant. Butterfly had been wanting to talk about it, but didn't want to just invite herself into their conversation. That would be rude of her. But since Kealey had suggested that idea, Butterfly was now quite happy that she would be able to input her thoughts and experiences in the conversation. When Kealey asked if she minded, Butterfly replied with "I don't mind at all. That's actually a really good idea, Kealey. There's nothing better than gaining information through personal conversations with people about their experiences. I'd be happy to help you in any way that I can, Mariusz. What exactly would you like to know?" she asked and watched Kealey to show them the way to the tables.

Butterfly could feel Tses's body heat radiate off of her skin and up to her butterfly body. It felt good and was really helping. She whimpered a little as she listened to Tses speak. She started to calm down. She knew Tses was right. She knew that there was nothing that they could really do, but Butterfly struggled with not being able to have control. Not being able to help or do anything to bring her brother back. It tore her to pieces inside. When Tses got done speaking, Butterfly nodded her head and said, "Okay, Tses. I'm sorry. I guess I just have a problem with not being able to do something about it. Not knowing what to do. At least your body heat is really helping to warm my body up. So hopefully I'll be nice and warm by the time I shift back. Whenever that is."

Butterfly looked around the apartment at the couch and bed and dresser and noticed the books on top. Maybe those could help later on when Tses wanted her to teach her to read. She looked over toward the kitchen and saw the jacket and then back over to the bed to the tiger on her pillow. It made her think of her brother. She tried her hardest not to cry. She fluttered over to Tses's shoulder and said, "Your apartment is nice. Its a lot nicer than the one I'm staying in. I mean it's not completely bad. I know Ty was just helping get me from staying on the streets, but its not as nice as this apartment." She looked over at the tiger again and couldn't help but cry. "I miss my brother Tses. I miss him alot." her high pitched cries ringing out into the room.

Butterfly peered up as she heard Tses cough. She then realized that she had shifted and she landed on Tses's hand. Although she had shifted and managed to solve the problem concerning the stairs, Butterfly still felt really crummy. She still felt like a burden, a problem to Tses. When Tses said for them to just get up the stairs, Butterfly replied with, "Okay" with a slightly depressed tone. Other than this Butterfly didn't really say anything else to Tses as they went up the stairs. She didn't wanna cause anymore trouble although she knew there would be another problem once they got to Tsees's apartment. She had shifted into a butterfly, now her problem would be being able to shift back so she could actually get warm. She was still crying slightly. Maybe she should have just left and maybe Tses wouldn't have to deal with her anymore.

"Yeah, it is. After I realize I've changed." she said with a laugh. She nodded her head in agreement. When Chicka began to apologize, Butterfly said "No, its okay. I like it better up here anyway. At least up here I have a brother now and he cares about me." and smiled, trying to cheer her up as well. "I'll walk with you. Maybe I'll get to see more of New York. I need to be able to learn how to get around here anyway. The city is so big and there's so much to see. Besides, someone has to protect you in case of danger." she said with a teasing laugh.

Butterfly nodded her head and smiled as Melissa said that she would be great and would have to wait for actually working to learn more. She looked down as all the paperwork that Melissa had given her, seeing if she had any questions about any of the forms and looking over what she needed in order to fill them out.
When Melissa spoke again and handed her a number to reach her, Butterfly took it and placed it with all the other paperwork. Butterfly smiled at Melissa and then got up from the chair and said, "Well, okay. I guess I'll head back and start working on this paperwork. I'll call you if I have any questions and I'll come back on Monday at noon. I'll see you then." as she started to leave.

Butterfly listened as Ty spoke. She could tell he was hurt, even with him trying to not sound that way. She frowned as he beat himself up about not being there. She took her finger tips and put them under Ty's chin and directed his head to look at her. She looked him in the eyes and said, "It'll be okay, Ty. Just because I'm moving into another place, doesn't mean I have to stay there 24/7. I'll come visit and you can come stay with me. And I'm sure we'll both wanna spend time with Tses as well. It's not your fault, Ty. You're the best part of my life. We'll always have each other. No matter where we are."

Butterfly listened as Regan told her about losing someone and then being taken in by the people at the Mansion. "I'm sorry, Regan. But at least you have people here and I'm sure we'll get to be really close friends." she said and smiled back at Regan.
When Regan then told her to come on and start heading home before it got dark, Butterfly followed her very closely not wanting to get lost or separated.

Butterfly looked at Tses and when she asked about her turning into a butterfly, Butterfly kinda frowned before she answered with, "I can, but I can't really control it that great. The only thing that has really made me shift is if I get really scared and tense up hard. If I knew how to do it willingly, I would. I'm sorry Tses." She hung her head now feeling like she was a burden. She didn't even notice the interior of the apartment building around her. She just felt like she had been nothing but trouble to Tses. Just someone else to worry about since her brother wasn't there deal with her instead. She tried to wiggle her toes and feet, but sharp pains shot through her legs as she moved them. She started crying, partly from the pain and from not knowing what she could do to help. She felt like she was just a stupid girl to Tses. She wished she could just run away. She was sure that the only reason why Tses put up with her is because her brother was her boyfriend. As she began to feel more and more upset and cried more, Butterfly didn't even notice that she started to change forms. She closed her eyes tight, just wishing she could run away and have her brother back. She didn't wanna cause Tses any more trouble than she already had.

Butterfly listened and said, weakly "Okay. I'll try." She then closed her eyes and tensed up as the cold winds hit her. She tried to imagine being somewhere warm. When she opened her eyes again, they were at the apartment entrance and Tses put her down, but her feet had gone numb and she grabbed onto Tses to keep from falling down. When they managed to get inside and Tses said that they had to go up some stairs now, Butterfly asked "How am I gonna get up stairs if I can't feel my feet? And I don't want you to fall trying to carry me up them. Maybe if I take my socks and shoes off, then I can regain feeling in them."

Butterfly chuckled when Regan said that she would be treated like a princess. "I don't wanna be that spoiled, Regan, but I'll be glad to have a warm place to stay out of the cold, food to eat, and to be able to shower regularly."
When they discussed Regan helping her find her way back, Butterfly nodded and said, "I'll probably be able to find it, but if I don't recognize it at, then I might need you to help me a little more."
As they were hugging, she heard Regan say It's ok Butterfly and she heard her start to cry. Butterfly hadn't meant to make her cry too. She was just happy that she finally had friends and didn't have to worry about being alone anymore in her life. "I'm sorry. I've just never really had friends before or family that really cared about me. I just recently found out I had a brother so I didn't have him around when I was growing up, but he's the only one I've ever had who actually treats me like family." she said as she broke the hug and wiped away her tears.

Butterfly smiled weakly as she took the man's hand and got back up. She still felt kinda bad for bumping into them. When he introduced himself, she introduced herself as well, "I'm Chloe, but better known as Butterfly."
When the woman introduced herself as Kealey and commented about having money for every time she bumped into something, Butterfly laughed and said, "Usually, I do pretty well. I'm only dangerous when I seem to find a library with a good selection of good books."
Butterfly walked over and picked up the book that had flew out of hand when she bumped into Mariusz and Kealey. She then turned back to Kealey and patiently waited her turn to speak. She smiled back when Kealey smiled at her. When it was her turn, Butterfly asked Kealey, "Could you show me where there are some tables close by so I don't cause anyone else any more trouble by bumping into them?"
