TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture, [[HumansArePsychicInTheFuture people possessing psychic powers start appearing]], and they are quickly started being feared by the general populace. The Sumeragi Group, a large, world-wide conglomerate, tasked itself with bringing peace and order to the world by rounding up psychics. But, unbeknownst to the world, they are put into concentration camps by the conglomerate, and have horrific experiments performed on them on a daily basis.

Opposing them is a resistance group know as Feather. Upon learning of the atrocities done by the Sumeragai Group, they started working together as a human rights organization to protect the psychics. One of their newest members is a 14-years old boy [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname known only by his nickname]]: Gunvolt. He, too, is a psychic, with the [[ShockAndAwe power to control lightning.]] On his first mission he is sent to assassinate a Sumeragi Group-sponsored idol pop star Lumen. But he hesitates upon learning that she is but an virtual avatar of a young psychic girl named Joule. That meeting will change his destiny, and will put him on a collision course not only with the Sumeragi Group, but also against his comrades.
