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.

Chloe peered out the open door and saw a man that looked liked he had vacuum sealed himself in a latex glove. She smirked. He didn't scare her the least bit. She knew that spandex couldn't possibly be comfortable and knew good and darn well he couldn't move in it. Not with being a man and all. She heard her brother's head hit the steering wheel. She wasn't going to shift and leave her brother. She'd stick it out with him and shift only if she needed, besides shifting takes a lot of energy out of her and the more time she had to regain some strength for shifting if crap got really bad. The next thing she knew she looks over at her brother and his eyes were glowing red. She had never really seen this part of his mutation before. "Holy crap. What the heck are you doing, Ty?" She went to touch him, but remembered his heed to not touch his jacket and pulled her hand away. She looked at him for what to do next and held her hands up and got out the car. Her brain was quickly going through ways to get out of this. She remembered what her blood had done to Ty before and could use it against this guy, officer if you will. But she had no way of drawing blood, no sharp object, no pin to even stick her finger. If he hit her in the nose, she would bleed, but she didn't know if that would be a smart idea. Then she realized that she could bite her lip or cheek if need be and spit on him, in his face if she had to. Anything to help keep her and her brother safe. She just knew there was no way she was gonna go with this goon and neither was her brother. All she was waiting for was her que. Some sign that things were gonna get hostile. And she hoped that she would be good enough to aim for his eye.

Chloe just looked at Ty and shook her head. Yeah, she knew that using your mutation to help break into a car would be useful, but she wanted to know how to do if she couldn't use it. Ya know the "old fashioned" way, but maybe she would learn it later. She closed her eyes and began to focus and found herself shifting. Her legs felt like they were leaving the ground and she could feel her wings coming out from the markings on her back. She opened her eyes and began to flutter over to the crack in the window and tried her hardest to not slip down the glass as she mounted the edge and began to work her way inside the car.
She slipped on the glass and fell down to the floor board below. "Owwwww.....Gravity's a $!%@*. See, Ty, this is why I need to learn how do break into a car the old fashioned way. I end up hurting myself when I use my mutation. At least you got the more helpful one." Butterfly fluttered her wings and sorta shrugged off the fall, before flying up to the middle console and sitting in the driver's seat and unlocked the car. "Get in. And show me how turn this sucker on. I wanna be able to drive this thing. Man, I want this car so bad. I hope no one gets in my way. I might just run their @$$ over."

Chloe listened to her brother intently, soaking up every bit of information he had to offer. She was excited about him showing her his skills at breaking into cars. When he pulled up into the parking lot and told her to got pick one out for them to break into, Chloe jumped out of the car with excitement and began to fiercely look through all the different cars around. She didn't know makes or models for the car, except for a few obvious ones like a Honda or the Ford F-150 series. She began to just look for cars she really liked and colors that she liked to help her narrow down her search. But it seemed that none really suited her fancy for being the first car she would ever break into. That is, until she laid eyes upon the purple mini cooper with white racing stripes along the hood, top, and trunk of the car. Then, and only then, was she finally satisfied with it. This was the car she wanted to break into and steal. This is the car SHE wanted. One she wasn't willing to give back. Maybe she could see herself being as bad and she thought and this was just the first step. She caught her brother's eye and motioned for him to come over. She didn't know how he would feel about not returning the car, but she didn't care. She wanted it and it was going to be hers. "I want this one. Not just for a joyride or for practice. I wanna keep this one. My first stolen car. I won't keep any others. Just this one. Now, can you show me how to break in and hot wire it, without damaging it or setting off the alarm?"

Chloe watched as her brother picked the car and then slip off his glove that would enable him to see the code on the keypad. In a way, she was kinda envious of her brother's power. She thought it was cool to be able to see things objects have seen. In this case, it helped them to break into a car for their joyride. Chloe wondered how she'd be able to do that if she didn't have her brother around. When Ty told her that the driver was a cool old dude, Chloe laughed slightly. She thought it was funny but didn't wanna draw any attention to what they were doing. She leaned in and watched as Ty crossed the wires and smirked as she heard the engine roar and climbed in the car. She turned to her brother and asked, "So Ty, how do you break into a car if you can't use your mutation? I wanna be able to do it too. You gotta teach me." As the car rolled forward, Chloe wondered what this crime spree would entail next. Would it just be a joy ride or would there be more trouble that would ensue?

Chloe nodded her head in understanding. She didn't mean to be so loud, but when Ty motioned to her, she followed her brother in anticipation and excitement. For once in her life she felt so---BAD. And she kinda liked the way it felt. She made sure to look around her like her brother was doing to make sure no one was around. She looked at the cars parked alongside the road and wondered what her brother would do next. Whatever it was, she wanted to help. She wanted to learn. She wanted to be more--BAD. She didn't wanna pretend to be some nice girl who just turned away when people got on her nerves or tip toed on egg shells to ensure that people liked being around her. She wanted some thrills and to cause some trouble for once. And she was glad she was with her brother. She knew that he would always manage to get them through the trouble if they ran into any. She cautiously glanced at her brother with excited, wild eyes and then whispered to him, "Let's do this."

Butterfly's facial features softened and her eyes grew wide in interest. She didn't know her brother could hot wire a car. That would be so cool to take a ride in some sporty hot rod and see how fast it could go. The thoughts mull over in her head and she pauses before asking her brother, "I'd love to go for a spin. And on our way to finding the perfect car to jack, you can show me how to pickpocket some. I might find it handy one day." She smirked at her brother teasingly at her witty puns, but also being completely serious. She might be an honest person overall, but Chloe has a darker side as well. One that no one has yet to see, but one that has been burning to show through Chloe's honest and moral demeanor.

Butterfly turned around as she knew that Paige was walking up, bringing along with her a mixed up concoction of all the different sprays. Actually, Butterfly smelled her coming up before she heard/saw her. She couldn't help but giggle as she realized that Paige kinda smelled like Grandma rolled around in lavender scented potpourri. Butterfly crinkled her nose slightly and then said teasingly, "Hey Baby. Find anything you like? I think I found a few things that both me and you would like." With this Chloe held up a couple of frilly undies that felt really soft and comfy and then another pair that was bikini cut and had the words "SEXY BADASS" written across the butt. "I thought the frilly ones fit me and these would fit you", she said with a smirk and holding out the bikini cut underwear. "But if you don't like them, I'd happily wear them as well. I mean I know I'm sexy, but you're the badass out of the two of us."

"Ty! When did you start stealing wallets? I can't believe I just saw you do that. I thought you had a job or something. I didn't realize you were a thief. You wouldn't like it if someone did that to you." Chloe stands there upset and hurt at what she has just witnessed. Moments pass as silence draws between them and then thoughts of what she said pass through her mind and she starts to regret some of the things she said to her brother. "Maybe he has to. What if he decides he doesn't want anything to do with me anymore?"...Chloe looks down at her feet and then says, "I'm sorry Ty. I didn't mean to yell at you. I'm just shocked and surprise. I never knew that was how you made your living. How do you manage to get their wallets without getting caught?"

Butterfly was so excited when her brother had called and asked to spend time with him at the park. It had been a while since they really got to hang around each other and she headed over to the park as soon as she hung up with her brother. It was a little early, but she figured she'd go and enjoy the fresh air and the sunset in the park as she waited on her brother. That's one thing she loved to do was to catch a sunset in the park.
As she walked around in dusky air, she came upon someone that looked like her brother. But what surprised her the most was what he was doing, She could clearly see him pickpocketing a man's wallet from his back pocket. She wanted to call out to him to see if it was her brother, but somehow her body just wouldn't let her speak. She knew her brother made money somehow, but she never knew it was like that. She was upset and yet didn't know how to feel about it. Maybe he had to and that was the only way he could get money to survive. Then again a thought lingered in her head, "How does he manage to get their wallet without them knowing? If I were to try that, I'd be a dead fish."
Putting her thoughts and feelings aside, she walked over toward who she thought was her brother. In the dim and fading light, she called out to the man sitting on the bench, "Ty?", half-heartedly hoping that maybe it was a stranger and that her brother was somewhere else walking around the park, waiting on her. She couldn't help but wonder what else her brother was doing in his life that he didn't want/hope his sister to know or find out. Her brother was her role model, everything she had. She didn't want to find out that he wasn't the kind of person she thought he was, that all he's told her and acted toward her was a lie.

Butterfly smiled at Paige's reaction. She didn't mean to scare her and was glad that she picked out one that really liked. "I like that one too, Baby. Wanna help me pick something cute out? Or should I go and find something for you while you keep smelling all the sprays and lotions?" She gave her girlfriend that same mischievous smile that Paige gave her earlier.
Though underwear shopping wasn't Paige's thing, Butterfly absolutely loved it. She loved finding things that were pretty and colorful and made her feel sexy. She never got to do this sorta thing when she was younger and all her shopping was done in WalMart, where the selections sucked and it was function over consumer appeal. She would just walk around the mall and window shop, wanting to be able to buy things she wanted , but never could afford. Now she could and she was getting to share her experiences with her girlfriend, where she could just be herself and knew that Paige would still love her regardless. Besides, if she couldn't open up and show Paige her true self, then what kind of relationship would she hope to develop if all she knew was a facade.

Butterfly smiled at Paige, happy that she was making Paige happy and feeling the warmth of her love flutter over her as she realized just how amazing it was to have Paige as her other half.
She walked over to Victoria's Secret with Paige and began to peruse the racks of different underwear and bra's and even looking at the body sprays and lotions to find what kind of stuff she liked. She definitely wanted to go see a movie with Paige, but that might have to wait as she wondered what that mischievous smile would be consisting of for later on. She smirked as she watched her girlfriend find things that she liked. Butterfly loved seeing Paige just be Paige and be girly at times. It made her happy. She brought over a few of the body sprays that she had smelled, but couldn't pick which she wanted. She tapped her girlfriend on the shoulder and asked, "Baby, which one do you like? I can't pick. Which one would you like for me to wear for you?"

Butterfly knew that Paige had come from a more wealthy family, but she just had to do what she could to make her girlfriend feel special. Chloe knew she was struggling with the bargain shopping, but Chloe figured that if they kept trying to work it in a little at a time, then maybe it'll come easier for the beautiful blonde to accept.
Chloe looked over at Paige and could tell that she felt bad or felt like she was ruining their date just from the way she sighed through her nose. She stopped as they were walking and faced Paige, putting her hands on either of Paige's shoulders and looked her straight in the eyes and said, "Paige, I wanna do this for you. I love you. I know things are difficult for you and it's things you aren't used to, but I assure you that you aren't ruining our date and I'm enjoying spending every moment of today with you. I want you to be happy. I wanna splurge a little on you. It makes me happy seeing you happy." Chloe kissed Paige's forehead and then asked,"If you're not happy shopping and looking around, then we could go somewhere else. We could go grab a bite to eat and catch a movie if you wanted. What would you like to do, Baby?"

Today was one of those days where Chloe was bored and wanted to get out of her room and do something. She had started by walking around the grounds to stretch her legs and take in some fresh air, but she wasn't satisfied. She thought that maybe if she got into a really good story that it would make her feel better. So she walked back inside and to the library. She walked along the bookcases and found herself meandering through the children's section. For some odd reason, children's stories always were quick reads, but always enjoyable reads. They could make your mind escape and not want to put the book down until you finished it. To be honest, Chloe believed that the best authors were ones who wrote for children because it was always hard to keep a child's mind interested for a long period of time and write in a way that children would be able to understand. And if a person could manage to do that, then they had to be a good author. If the author was able to write multiple books for a series or otherwise, then that just made them even better. Chloe ran her finger along the spines until she found Alice in Wonderland. She pulled the book off the shelf and found a comfy chair in the corner to sit in while she read. She propped her legs up on the arm of the chair and happily began to read. At some point while she sat enjoying one of her favorite childhood classics, it began to rain. Chloe took no notice of it, she just continued to read about the journey of Alice down the rabbit hole and all of the exotic and crazy things she experienced along her journey, whether it be a white rabbit, singing flowers, or playing cards trying to hurry and paint the roses red before the Red Queen could notice. Lines of "Off with their head." rang in her mind as she imagined what the Red Queen would sound like.
When she finished the book, she placed it back on the shelf where she had found it. Satisfied that she was no longer bored, she decided that she would go see her her girlfriend Paige. She tried to find her around the mansion, but upon having no luck, she called her cell phone. No answer. She tried a couple more times, thinking that she might not have heard her phone go off, but all with the same result, no answer. She figured she might have left her phone in her room or the battery died and was around town somewhere. She went back to her room and grabbed her rain boots and an umbrella. She then headed toward the park to see if she was there. She walked all around and never saw her. "Maybe she had to work today." Chloe thought. As she was walking to the coffee shop, the rain began to come down harder and the wind began to blow, getting part of her shirt and jeans soaked. She finally got to the shop only to find out that Paige wasn't there.
"Maybe Ty's around." Chloe hoped. She tried to call his phone. It went straight to voicemail. Again, voicemail. "The rain is probably messing with cell phone signal. I'll just go and see if he's at Sanctuary." Chloe reasoned. But unbeknownst to her, she'd never make it there. She was on her way over to Sanctuary when she stepped into a puddle, not thinking anything about it, but it took her by surprise when suddenly she felt herself fall. The feeling of sudden unexpected surprise gripped her stomach and she didn't even realize that her umbrella had caught the air and she was floating slightly. She looked around, trying to figure out where she was and what had happened to her. The only thing she could see was an open pocket-watch with the hands moving counter-clockwise. "That's funny." she thought. "Clocks don't move like that." She called out, ""Hello, Is anyone there? Can anyone help me?" As she waited for an answer to come back, a combination of her weight and her struggling to look around made her umbrella fold back and she began to fall again, very fast. She screamed and closed her eyes, but upon opening them she found herself on top of a massive mushroom and not like the human self she once was and not like her butterfly form either--Somehow, someway she had been shifted into a caterpillar. When she saw herself in raindrops that had collected on a leaf of a nearby flower, Chloe was startled, but then began to try and reason what had happened. She must have slipped and hit her head as she was walking and been knocked unconscious. She just hoped that someone would find her soon and wake her up or that she wouldn't drown from all the rain coming down. Maybe just maybe someone would find her. Until then she didn't know what she was going to do, she was locked inside what she thought was her mind. Maybe something from her mind would give her some sort of hint or clue as to what to do next or what was happening to her, but until then all she could do was wait, hoping she wouldn't be stuck here forever.

Chloe walked back out of the dressing room with the dress in hand and saw her girlfriend wearing the jacket, waiting for her. Butterfly walked over to the counter and paid for it. With her bag in one hand and Paige's hand in the other, Butterfly walked out of the JCPenny and then scoped out the stores around for them to go to next. As her eyes scanned, she saw the Victoria's Secret and began to walk in that direction. She looked over her shoulder and grinned. "How's Victoria's Secret sound?"she asked, hoping that Paige would be more excited for this one that she was about JCPenny. She had a surprise for Paige though, she didn't have to bargain hunt in Victoria Secret. Butterfly had managed to save and keep enough money that she could spoil her girlfriend on this occasion.
As they walked through the doors of the store, Butterfly looked over to her girlfriend and said, "Get whatever you want Baby and I'll get it for you. The only thing I ask is that you help me find something sexy too." She playfully laughed and squeezed Paige's hand, smiling at her.

Chloe walked through the doorway and thanked Tses for her hospitality and letting her stay there. "This'll be fine. Anything is better than being out there." and motioned to the snow coming down outside. She was grateful for being able to stay here and not have to be out in the cold trying to find her way home.
She walked over to the couch and moved the pillow to wear it would be comfortable for her. She laid down and found the one comfortable position that she could fall asleep easy, on her stomach. She closed her eyes and felt her achy, tired body just give to the soft cushions of the couch and knew that she would be asleep soon. "Goodnight, Tses. I hope you sleep well." As she finished her sentence, Chloe drifted off into a deep heavy sleep, where she dreamed of her brother being back with them and them all having a great time just spending it with each other.
