Plot
The world always has seemed to have stayed the same, occasionally producing exceptional individuals. But often people were about to expect those who stand out to an extent. Unbeknownst to them, the government has known of the existence of people who have telekinetic powers for about thirty years now and has tried their best to keep the public oblivious of this. The government officials have created a town or rather a reservation for individuals with telekinesis. There are several reasons for this. They want to primarily keep them out of the public eye. They also want to prevent them from getting stronger and honing their powers. One thing that the government officials are unaware of though, is that the telekinetics are starting to find out what is really going on and that they can communicate with one another through telepathy.
Also there have been strange happenings in the area. Guards have turned up dead and mangled. Surveillance cameras shortly go into static. EM-readings occasionally go haywire. Unknown telekinetic subjects are suspected.
Setting
The telekinetics have been convinced to go live in a town called Newtown. While to them it may look like a normal town, it is in fact under surveillance. And many citizens in town are paid agents to always keep an eye on them. Additionally, the government wont let the telekinetics leave without permission and even when they get to leave, agents will always keep an eye on them.
Newtown: A town of about 1,500. The town is surrounded by forest and lies on a peninsula. For most things, you don't need to leave town as it has a small mall, a strip mall, a small K-12 school (for some reason though there are no elementary schoolers), a bowling alley, a go-cart track, restaurants, boutiques and so on. To be honest, the amount of facilities and services is almost suspicious since usually no town has this much stuff. At the doctors offices, the doctors do more than just treat the telekinetics though, but they also check any changes amongst them and use them as guinea pigs for medication that is supposed to suppress their powers.
Additional Information
Telekinetic subjects: They are usually found by the agents and are usually convinced to go to Newtown or in the worst case scenario are forced there as a "safety measure". So far most of them can only lift lighter objects with their minds and communicate telepathically. Potentionally, the powers can become strong enough to harm others, which agents are actively trying to prevent. Subjects who become too strong, either disappear or are given any treatment that will decrease their mental capacity, yet some can slip under the radar or act convincingly as if it was just a fluke. There are stories that there have been powerful telekinetics in the past that somehow managed to evade capture. Subjects usually have a chip that is implanted in the back of their neck as a tracker, stunner and it could potentially kill a subject gone amok.
Agents: Basically everyone who isn't a telekinetic subject is an agent, even most of the students at the school. All of them are good actors. Some of them sort of fear the subjects or get nervous around them. Many agents have military training.
