Description
Since hundreds of years ago there has been certain people with abilities all around the world. There were few, and they were special and rare. And society always had a way of making them know how special they were throughout the decades.
They were labeled as strange, oddities, kooks, freaks; and when the numbers of them grew and people began to see them as a threat, they became ‘abnormals’. A somewhat nicer name, not to anger certain people.
Different precautions were taken in different places as some regions witnessed an influx and others not, however the same terms applied.
Be cautious when in the presence of one, because no one knows what one may do.
In Korea they took both the terms and precautions to the next level, isolating the country itself, blocking off any entry and interference from others unless given the approval by the government. They did not want to deal with any more of the ‘abnormals’. The only thing left was to manage the few that they recognised within their country.
It has been 20 years since the day Korea chose to isolate its country.

Abnormals (/abˈnôrməls/)- A kinder term used to specify humans that project abilities deviating from what is normal or usual, typically in a way that is undesirable or worrying.
Common ability seen from abnormals is telekinesis and the power to levitate, as these powers come from the minds ability. However in recent years Abnormals have been able to increase their powers, in a sense creating newer abilities.
The abilities to mold and bend water, fire, earth, and wind, to their will and command. There are rumors however of other rarer powers that have yet to be seen, and yet to be examined.
Foreword
Jongin found himself at the top of a hill looking down to see the small lights over the big city. He came here on a daily bases even though he risked getting into trouble. He always came to fantasize about his future and just look at the lights, he believed they held something more within.
It was the same reason why he watched the news every night. Because he wanted to know he wasn’t alone, that there were others out there that have the same abilities as him. Even if it wasn’t the best way to learn of them, it still eased the boy.
“One day, I’m gonna leave this place and I’m gonna,” he let out a small sigh and slowly closed his eyes taking in the strong winds, “ I’m gonna be free.”
Free from the prying eyes of society. He knew he was somewhat overreacting since he’s still living a peaceful life unlike others that were either taken, killed, feared, and alienated. But still, no matter how long his uncle or normal friends stood by his side, he felt lonely. Everybody else may have not known about his ability but he did, and he felt alone because of it.
His lips tugged upwards forming a sad smile before he disappeared into the night soundlessly, leaving behind only black mist. He reappeared crouched down only a few meters away from his house quickly sprinting back before anybody saw him.
