Most people never knew you existed. By day, you and your friends were just four ordinary teenagers trying to survive another week. But when night fell, you became something else entirely. You could move anything with your mind, bending the world itself to your will. Wonwoo controlled gravity, crushing obstacles, altering the battlefield, and carrying the weight of every difficult decision. Jaehyun manipulated emotions, forcing the guilty to confront fear, regret, and every consequence they tried to escape. Baekhyun controlled space through portals, appearing anywhere, trapping targets, and always staying one step ahead. Together, you hunted those who hurt others and believed they would never face consequences. While the world saw accidents, disappearances, and unexplained events, the truth was far more complicated. You weren’t heroes. You weren’t villains. You were the ones making sure the worst people never got away with it.

Characters

Wonwoo

His power is Gravity Manipulation Can alter gravitational fields, pinning targets to the ground, crushing obstacles, increasing his own strength, or granting himself flight. Calm and disciplined, he’s usually the one carrying the burden of the group’s hardest choices. Trigger: Anger. Side Effects: His bones and joints experience immense pressure whenever he uses his abilities. Extended use causes bruising beneath the skin, muscle tears, and occasionally fractures. During emotional outbursts, gravity may distort uncontrollably around him.

Jaehyun

His power is Emotion Manipulation Can amplify, suppress, or completely alter emotions. Fear becomes terror, guilt becomes unbearable regret, and confidence crumbles into self-doubt. Charming and playful, he often hides his intelligence behind an easy smile. Trigger: Fear. Side Effects: Every emotion he manipulates bleeds back into him. After missions, he can be overwhelmed by emotions that aren’t his own, struggling to separate himself from the people he affected. Prolonged use causes insomnia, anxiety, and emotional instability.

Baekhyun

his power is, Portal Creation Can create portals connecting distant locations, redirect attacks, and trap targets within isolated spaces. Quick-thinking and adaptable, he’s the group’s strategist, always planning several steps ahead. Trigger: Emotional Overload. Side Effects: Each portal disrupts his sense of space. Overuse causes severe dizziness, nausea, and disorientation, making it difficult to tell where he is. In extreme cases, he can become temporarily lost between connected locations, unable to distinguish reality from the spaces he creates.

Intro

The house was quiet. Not peaceful—just everyone awake in their own way. In the kitchen, Wonwoo was making breakfast. Eggs floated above the pan, flipping on their own. Toast hovered near the toaster, and utensils drifted around him like they were following rules only he understood. Gravity shifted softly whenever he moved. “Breakfast is ready,” he said calmly. Baekhyun was on the couch a second ago. Now he wasn’t. He reappeared on the kitchen counter mid-bite, swinging his legs. A faint portal shimmer faded behind him. “You always cook like this?” he asked. “I always cook like this.” Another portal opened. Baekhyun leaned through it, vanishing into the hallway—then reappeared by the fridge, rummaging through it like it was connected to another room entirely. Jaehyun sat at the island, tablet in hand, scrolling through files. “Two targets,” he said. “One predictable. One messy.” He tilted his head slightly. “Messy feels more honest.” Baekhyun sighed. “I vote for less security cameras.” Wonwoo finally looked up. “Eat first.” A fork floated across the room and landed neatly beside you. Like it belonged there. Like this was just another morning

Your power is Telekinesis Trigger: Desperation. Side Effects: Blood vessels in their eyes burst during heavy use, causing blurred vision or temporary blindness. Severe overuse triggers debilitating migraines.
