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 and Paige had decided to go and just have a nice picnic lunch out on the grounds of the mansion. It was a lovely day outside; slightly warm, no wind, and the sun was out and Butterfly thought it would be a lovely way to spend the day with her girlfriend. Butterfly walked with Paige around the grounds just talking and looking for the perfect place to lay down their blanket and have their picnic.
They had just recently found the perfect place to set up. They had laid the blanket down and they were starting to break out the nice goodies that they had packed up to eat when a familiar bird-like face called out to them and asked to join them for a few moments. Butterfly paused for a moment and looked over at Paige, thinking on the matter before answering, "Sure Talon. What's on your mind?"

Butterfly could see that she was embarrassing her scaly friend in the awkwardness that ensued afterwards. So she tried to alleviate it by just keeping quiet and just listening. She learned that her friend's name was Kiva and that she also went by Drake. "I like the name Kiva. It sounds really pretty." She watched as Kiva went and closed the sketchbook that she held in her hand and place it down on the ground before picking up another one that was laying beside her. Butterfly watched as she flipped through the pages and then when she showed her the picture the forest sprite that she was working on completing and the resemblance of the forest sprite struck a light in her mind. "She looks so familiar, but I can't place exactly who she is just yet. Why do I feel like I know her? And maybe I can be a model for you? Do you think that would help you some? I'd be more than happy to help a fellow artist in any manner that I can."

Butterfly smirked at Paige, knowing that everyone had a bad side to them. She just figured that she'd see it eventually. Not wanting to push things any further, Butterfly walked off the subway and into the mall and looked around thinking about all the places in the mall that she and Paige should go and visit. When suddenly, Paige planted that amazing sweet, loving kiss on her lips and it took her aback for a moment and she felt herself sink into the deep kiss as her surprise slipped out of her body through the exhale through her nose as she continued to kiss Paige. She felt her face grow warm and as Paige broke their kiss, Butterfly just looked at her with love-struck eyes and struggled to regain her words afterwards. As Paige suggested that they go shopping, Butterfly nodded her head and said, "Yes, let's. Where should we head first? What's your favorite place to go when you go shopping?"

As Fisher said, both he and I will be out on a boat and out of the country and won't be online from the May 25-June 2nd. If Fishy doesn't come back with me, it's because I threw him overboard and added to the ocean's diversity of fishes. Lol. Jk. I promise I'll bring him back safe and sound and uber excited to tell you guys all about our trip. I'll miss you all. --Oh and hey, save me a piece of cake too if ya'll decide to party without us.

She chuckled at Paige speaking about her bad side and smiled at Paige's blushing, "But you are great at singing and an amazing guitar player as well. You're so talented and I enjoy every bit of it. And of course no one is a Little Miss Sunshine all the time. Believe it or not, I have a bad side too. I just don't get to show it very often." As Paige nuzzled her, Butterfly breathed a deep happy sigh and just enjoyed a few seconds of quiet as she walked on with her girlfriend, savoring the wonderful feeling of love that resonated within her soul. As she heard Paige's grumble about the wind, she giggled and walked her and Paige onto the subway train that would take them to the mall. She felt amazing just being with her. She thought to herself, "No day in paradise could ever feel as wonderful as being with her and feeling her loving arms around me."

Butterfly grinned at the mention of Paige having a bad side and the idea of possibly getting to see California one day."You have a bad side? I've yet to see that. Maybe you can show me one day. Maybe you can take me back to California someday." she stuck her tongue out teasingly at the blonde as she kept walking and were getting closer to the entrance of the park.
"Yeah, you have me. And New York has some great places. The weather will get better. It can't stay cold forever." As she just finished up her sentence, she heard Paige begin to sing and she held her closer as her beautiful voice was carried to her ears. "Have I told you how much I love to hear you sing? It's so beautiful." As the continued to walk, they made their way past the park entrance and then began to walk down the street toward the subway entrance. That was the way Butterfly's brother went and that's how she would go. When the wind picked up a bit, Butterfly took off her jacket and wrapped it around Paige's shoulders to help keep her warm and kissed her forehead before continuing on. "We'll be there soon. And we can stay as long as you want, Baby. As long as I get to spend time with you, I'm happy."

Butterfly felt Paige's lips against hers and her eyes closed in heavy happiness. As she felt Paige's arm being placed around her, she started to grin from ear to ear as she leaned into Paige a little and nuzzled her. She listened as Paige talked about about work and smiled as she talked about spending time with her and blushed as Paige claimed her as her girlfriend. She smiled as the blonde winked at her and nodded and shared her dislike for the weather as well. Butterfly then began to think of where they could go to get out of the cold windy weather."I'm not liking the weather either. I like Georgia weather a lot better. And you'll get used to the city, it's not so bad after you're here a while and realize it's your new home. Instead of walking around the park, I think I remember the way my brother went to go to the mall. We could go walk around there if you'd like. That way we're not out in the cold and can still hang out. Want to?" Butterfly started walking around the path that could lead back to the entrance to the park and she rubbed her hands over Paige's shoulder to try and help keep her warm.

Butterfly sat down next to her new acquaintance and nodded her head in agreement. "Yeah I understand completely. I used to have that happen all the time..." Before Butterfly could say anymore, she was startled with the outright question of being a mutant or just friendly. She giggled a little and then responded, "Both, I guess you could say. I am a mutant and I am friendly. My name's Chloe, but I go by Butterfly. That's part of my mutation. I can shift into my butterfly form. What's your name?"

Butterfly blushed slightly as well as she heard Paige say that she had missed her too. Butterfly jumped down next to her and leaned over and kissed her cheek and put her arm around her. "I'd really like that, Paige. We could walk around the park and just talk for a bit until we figure out what we want to do. Is that okay? How has your day off been? How have you been?" She waited for a moment for Paige to indicate if she wanted to walk with her as she spotted the closest path that they could start walking on.

Butterfly had seen Paige coming toward her and smiled as she saw her beautiful face draw closer to her. She pretended not to notice as Paige tried climbing up in the tree, but when Paige patted her on her butt, Butterfly couldn't help but look down at her and smirk. "Hey Paige. I missed seeing your pretty face. You look kinda cold. Let me come down there and help warm you up." As she said this, Butterfly climbed down one branch to where Paige was and sat right next to her and smiled at her, looking into her nice beautiful eyes.

Butterfly sat solemnly as she listened to Tses speak. Tses may have been a loose end every now and then and she may have a hard time with emotions, but she could be pretty wise and comforting when she wanted to be. She petted a few of the kittens that were close to her, smiling at Goliath as he went and pawed at her shirt.
When Tses got done speaking, Butterfly leaned over and gave her a hug and squeezed tightly as she whispered to her, "Thanks Tses. For everything. I don't know what I would do without you. You're like the big sister I never had. I love you." She sat there with her head on Tses's shoulder and arms still around her and hoped that Tses would just comfort her, like her brother would. Butterfly might have been 19, but that didn't mean that she didn't have her moments of feeling like a scared kid, of needing comfort and love shown to her.

It was another day in the park for Butterfly, another day of self-training. By now Butterfly was getting to be quite good with shifting and unshifting, thanks to the tips that Tses had given her after rescuing her from the snow and cold. She had decided to go to the park and just got and fly for a while. She hadn't stretched her wings out in a while and she found that she tended to get fidgety if she didn't go out and fly for a bit pretty often. She had found a quiet and pretty deserted place and was about to change form when she found someone sitting, back against a tree and a sketchbook open, pencil in hand as she tapped it on the page. She always had found art very interesting and had done quite a few drawings when she used to live in Macon. Sadly, she had none of it with her now. So she stopped by the tree and smiled as she said, "Hey, you look like I did when I used to draw and would be thinking about what I should draw next. Would you mind if I sat next to you and watched or maybe we could just talk? Maybe I could help? That is if you don't mind."

Butterfly had been sitting alone and quite bored when someone called. This was really unexpected, considering she never got calls really. She picked up the phone, hoping that it would be someone special and not another telemarketer. She brought the phone up to her ear and said, "Hello?" When she heard the voice of someone familiar that she could only hope to speak to again, her heart jumped into her throat with excitement. She answered back with, "Sure, I can meet you. In the park. Right. Don't worry, Paige. You'll know where to find me."
Butterfly jumped up and immediately went to find better clothes to put on. She couldn't very well go see Paige with just her lounging clothes on. She wanted to be wearing something special, something to impress her with. So she went rummaging through the clothes that she had, pretty much all from when her brother took her shopping. She realized that the weather wasn't that great and decided to wear a pair of jeans that fit her pretty snug and then contemplated a top. As she picked through her clothes, the perfect one made itself known. She grabbed the cute dark green button up and put it on, leaving a couple of buttons undone at the top. Next, she quickly laced up her dark blue converses and a jacket and hurried out the door.
When she got to the park, she wondered if Paige had already gotten there before she did. She looked around a bit, but came to the conclusion that she must have gotten there early. She quickly found the tree that she and Paige had first met under and then climbed up into the tree and sat on a branch, waiting for Paige to arrive. "Let's see if she can spot the Butterfly when I'm not in such a conspicuous form?" she thought to herself and smirked as she waited anxiously.

Butterfly smiled as she learned the kittens name and chuckled a little about the smaller kitten being named Goliath. When things turned to her more truthful and honest thoughts, Butterfly looked over at Tses and said somewhat seriously, "You think I've been doing well. I've been scared to death and I don't know what to do. I try to make it seem like I'm fine, but I'm not really. That's all my life has been, really. Putting up a front to make other people and myself believe that I'm okay when I don't know what to do with myself from one moment to the next. I wish I could tell you that what I'm saying is all just a joke, but it's not. Tses, you'll never know how grateful I am for the things you've done for me." She glanced back down at the kitten, wishing her brother were there to hug her. She missed him so much and the magnitude of his absence was really starting to weigh on her mind.
