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 managed to look up at the clouds as they spelled out loser, before they all of a sudden dispersed. She kinda watched the girl, thinking that she was a mutant as well and that she was the one who had dispersed the clouds. As she watched the girl, she could tell that something was bothering her and trying to cover it up. It was so evident in her body language.
Butterfly replied back to the nice day comment with, "Yeah, it is a nice day. And you're not a loser. I saw the clouds. What's wrong? By the way, my name's Butterfly."

Butterfly was walking around the park just to kill some time one day. She didn't really have anything to do right then and it had been a while since she was at the park. She liked just being able to admire nature sometimes. Even though she was pretty much covered, the wind blowing by was still sort of cold. She kind of tensed up for a moment as the wind blew. She started to walk again, but the wind blew her long, black hair into her face. She was fighting to see through it and trying to keep it pulled back. She stumbled forward and bumped into something or someone. She couldn't tell for all of her hair in her face. Butterfly quickly slung the side of her head so that her hair was out of her face and she grabbed it and pulled it over to the side, holding it in place with her hand.

Butterfly listened as Tses talked to her and she wiped the remaining tears from her face. She tried to be hopeful, tried to be positive. Maybe Tses cared about her after all. She smiled as Tses spoke. She knew all too well that Tses was reverting back to shell and Butterfly could tell it by the way that she spoke.
Butterfly stood up as Tses pulled away from their hug. "Thanks, Tses. So do you wanna keep looking around for any other clues that Ty was here?"

Butterfly was still crying when she felt Tses bring her into a hug and run her hands through her hair. When Tses started to do this, Butterfly started to calm down some and hugged Tses back, holding on tight. She was still scared, but Butterfly just melted into Tses's comforting hug and calming nature. When she was younger and upset, she used to play with her own hair to try and comfort herself since no one else was there for her. Having Tses there to comfort her really helped.
When Tses began to speak, Butterfly looked up at her and paid attention. She nodded her head showing that she was paying attention and every now and then she would sniffle, still slightly upset. When Tses said that she cared about Butterfly and wanted to be there for her, Butterfly was so taken aback and surprised. She smiled and hugged Tses again, whispering to her "Thanks, Tses. You don't know just how much I needed that. I'm sorry about breaking down on you. I just...I can't be as strong as you." She smiled as Tses brushed a tear off of her cheek. "I"m sorry about your sister. I know me and Ty haven't known each other long, but I feel the same way about him and you did about your sister. It just hurts so bad to think about losing him. I didn't think you'd ever care about me. I thought that you just thought about me as some extra person to deal with since you and Ty were together. I didn't think you'd like me."

Butterfly smiled and hugged him tight when he hugged her. She heard him whisper Thank you and she just hugged him tighter. When he released her from the hug and said that he had to get going, Butterfly nodded her head. She wasn't happy about him leaving, but she knew that he would be back. She trusted him.
As Ty spoke his final words before leaving, Butterfly replied with, "I did too, Ty. Hope we can do again sometime. And you're welcome, Ty. Anything for my big brother. I love you." She walked him to the door and closed it behind him as he left. Now she was back to just being by herself. She grew more and more to hate being alone.

Butterfly was still crying when Tses put her hand on her shoulder. Butterfly looked up at Tses with tear streaked cheeks and said, "Tses, I'm scared. I'm scared that something bad has happened to Ty and that he'll never be able to come back to us. I don't wanna lose my brother. I love him. He's all I have. He was the best family I ever had. I've always been alone. Never had anyone to care about me and so much pain from that pent up. I just....I can't lose him.....I can't. He's the only one who's ever cared about me." Butterfly sat with her head on her knees, steadily sobbing. Through bouts of sobs, Butterfly said, "Why am I even telling you this? You don't even know me. Or have a reason to care about me."
Butterfly wasn't really paying attention to what she said to Tses, she just hurt so bad. She wanted her brother back. She felt so alone.

Butterfly nodded her head as the woman spoke. Butterfly had already graduated from high school, but she would still need to find a faculty member to help train her. "Well, I've already graduated from high school, so I guess all I can do is train. Which faculty member should I talk to about training?" And as the woman continued to speak about what she should do to move in, Butterfly paid close attention that way she would remember what to do.
She smiled back at Regan, thinking about how it would be cool if she and Regan became roommates. So far she was the only person here that she knew and Regan was incredibly nice. So it seemed to all be good in her head. After she got everything set up in their office, Butterfly knew that it would be time to go and head back to her apartment, but she'd be back after a little while. The only thing that she would need to do after that was to remember how to get back to the mansion.
Quick to think about needing to know how to get back here, Butterfly asked Regan "Do you have a pen and some paper that I could have? I kinda need it so I can write down how to get back here."

Butterfly looked at Tses as she spoke to her and watched to see how she reacted. She could tell that Tses was getting slightly upset at what she was saying, but Butterfly knew it was the truth. Sure it was hard to show someone you cared sometimes, but if someone cares about you as much as she thought Ty did to Tses, then Butterfly just didn't understand why it was so hard for her. Maybe she just had trust issues. Butterfly hoped that she could work them out. She wanted for her brother and Tses to be a couple and express their love between each other. Butterfly was thinking about this and about finding her brother when Tses was talking. She was half way paying attention when all of a sudden Butterfly's attention was brought back to reality. When Tses said No way..., Butterfly ran over to the trash can to see what Tses had found. When she peered in, she saw the tiger that Ty always had. When Tses asked Why would he throw it away?, Butterfly replied, "He wouldn't. Not for any reason. He loved that tiger. And he loved his Mom too much to throw it away."
It was at that moment that Butterfly began to really worry. She saw the worry in Tses's face as well. She knew that something really was wrong then. Someone had gotten to Ty and had hurt him. Butterfly just knew it. She could feel it in the pit of her stomach and it made her feel sick. The worst thought that could come to her mind was starting to look true, but Butterfly tried to push the thought out of her mind. She was so worried now that she started to cry. She missed her brother and wanted to find him, but she felt like they'd never see him again.

Butterfly nodded her head as she listened to what Melissa had to say. When Melissa asked her to come in on Monday at noon and gave her instructions to wear black, Butterfly replied with "Alright."
Butterfly smiled, thinking that it would be cool for Melissa to train her. Then when Melissa mentioned that the bottles with ribbons on them were her own, Butterfly laughed and then asked, "Are they all the same or do they all taste different?" She knew that Melissa's power allowed for her to make alcohol, but she didn't know if or how she did made them different.

Butterfly smiled weakly at the woman, "I'm 19 and I'd like to take classes to learn how to control my powers. But what other kinda classes do you have? Could I take more? And I'd like to live her possibly, but could I arrange to come and live at a later date?"[/color} Butterfly hoped that she wasn't being too complicated. She just didn't wanna move in right away without letting Ty know or seeing if it would be a good idea.
Butterfly smiled back at Regan and when Regan came closer to her, Butterfly felt more confident in herself and not so insecure. Maybe she had actually made a friend for once. Why couldn't there have been people like Regan in Macon when she was growing up. She would have loved to have had friends like that when she was younger instead of always being and feeling so alone. I wonder if they also can help me with my poison blood thing too , Butterfly thought.

Butterfly looked at the woman at the desk and said "I'd like to maybe take some classes here and learn about maybe living here. I can't move in just yet, but I'd like to get some information so that I can think about it if that's possible. Do I have to do anything like tests or can I even take classes here?"
She looked back at Regan and smiled weakly. She was still really nervous, but having Regan behind her and supporting her in a way was very comforting. She looked back at the woman, waiting on her response.

Butterfly looked at him with seriousness in her eyes, "I may not have known you long, but I trust you. And I trust that you wouldn't do that to me. I know that you don't wanna turn out like that so I know you'll work hard and strive to be something better. And as long as you continue to be my brother and want to spend time with me, then you'll never let me down. And the only way that you would ever leave me and not come back for however long, is the day that I know something has gone wrong. And if that ever happens, then I'll come and find you and be the sister I need to be when you need me the most."

Butterfly looked at Regan when she said she wasn't anything to shake a stick at and replied with, "Well of course you are, I love that you have feline characteristics, especially with your green stripes and your hair is so bright and pretty. Plus, your fur is so soft and you have such a wonderful pleasantness about you. That makes you special. Being human like is so overrated. You are above and beyond human beauty. I like to meet people who are different. Humans don't get to have those interesting factors." She smiled at Regan, hoping to have helped her feel better about herself.
Butterfly then turned toward the counter and nervously walked up to it, looking back at Regan for a sign as to what to do. She had never done this before. Oh well, here goes nothing. she thought. She turned back to the lady at the desk and asked, "Could you help me please?"

Butterfly looked around the park at the few people that were there. She tried to find a direction that they should start at to look for Ty but the park was just wide open space. She never really got to know the park that well. The last time she was there she was just trying to find a park bench to sleep on. And that didn't take that long to find.
She listened to Tses as they walked. When Tses said I don't know how to show someone I care and then talked about having to be taught how to care for someone, Butterfly responded quickly with "You know how to show someone you care. You just said yourself that you cared for someone before. So you can show someone you care, you just don't want to because you're scared you'll get hurt or hurt them. Its not a matter of teaching, it's a matter of letting yourself do it. You can't always be scared or insecure in life, otherwise you'll miss out with people that are important to you or those who could be. Trust me, I know. I've never had someone to really care about me until I met my brother. I've always been scared about having people to leave me and I still do, but I'd rather show people that I care when they show me that they care, than to make it seem like I don't and then just push them away in the process."
