Eutang Lee, a 16 year old Chinese student studying abroad in Australia due to an international program that was designed to bridge closer ties between the two countries.
Eutang Lee is an upstanding student, proficient in subjects such as English and History was one of the chosen participant and was sent oversee's to Australia, where he will be sent to QBC Private High School to study while staying at a government funded dorm.
His mother cried with tears as she sent him away at the airport.
"You must not let our family down, at least give your mother one last hug before you go"
Eutang embarrassingly embraced his mother before looking towards his father with a downcast expression.
But all he saw was his father's nodding with a nonchalant expression, before sending him off on his life changing trip.
His father was a failed business owner in electronic parts, after being bankrupted, his family can only go to start a small restaurant business on a random worn out street.
So his father entire being has been saddened with his heart spiraling downwards since then.
Eutang remembered his father being outgoing and cheerful when he was young, but after the electronic business failed, the household grew gloomy and bleak.
This was until Eutang talent in studying began to come to light, being top of the class every year with no exception.
"Am I dreaming?"
Eutang was in a dazed as he was just about to board the plane, he saw his father waving him off with a smile, he too in returned, smiled and wave.
This moment was very special to him as he was anxious to be sent in an unknown land with no friends or family, although there were four other Chinese student being sent to the same school as him, he didn't know them that well.
The reason why Eutang and his parents agreed to this program was because of money.
The Australian government agreed to pay for the expense of Eutang and the other four chosen students for the time they spend at QBC.
This will relieve Eutangs Lee parents expenses, since they do not have to spend money looking after him for the next few years.
If any of the Chinese students break the law, or fall behind in study at QBC, their contract will be cut, and they will be sent home.
Another part of the program is that if any of the contracted student, graduate with grades in the top 0.1% national percentile, another contract will be provided, and the student will be able to enter any university of their choosing, for free, provided the university is Australian.
Eutang was clearly surprised once he had gotten out of the plane.
It was the first time he had seen people of many different races cluster together in person, the only time he saw people of different races were on his television set at home.
Australia, a multicultural land, some say that this country doesn't exist, though that was usually a joke, he couldn't believe he was actually here, in flesh and blood, in the land down under.
After getting his passport and bag checked, he was finally free to go to the waiting area of the airport where families and friends gather to see their loves one arrive.
Carrying his bag to this area he saw someone that looked like a male government official, carrying a sign with his name on it.
He could see the other Chinese students had gotten their first, these four people didn't come from the same school, or even area as him, all of them had come from different backgrounds, and were totally strangers to each other.
A girl that seems 185cm tall, long black ponytail, above average beauty, and a mole on her left chin had a similar looking male government official with a sign saying, Lucy Fei.
A shorter girl, 161cm tall, short black bob hair, emitted a neet vibe, had a sign saying, June Wong.
A slightly chubby girl, 171cm tall, dyed red pigtails, she wore glasses, and had a sign saying, Jessica Huan.
A short male, 165 cm tall, medium length messy black hair, wore glasses, emitted a weeb vibe, had a sign saying Carl Rong.
"They all have English names, maybe they chose it just for this situation so they can fit in with the other youths of this country, maybe I should choose one? Nah, I like Eutang so I'll keep it so"
"You took forever, hummpft, can we go now" Lucy Fei said with a cold expression.
Eutang frowned in displeasure, before comfirming his identity with the man who held his name sign.
"Ok, we have a limo reserve for all of you, we will take you to your new dorms" One of the government official said towards the five students.
"Hi, my name is Carl Rong, lets be friends"
"Sure, I'm Eutang Lee"
XXX 1 year later XXX
Eutange has already been studying at QBC Private Highschool for over a year now, and he has already finished year 11 with his grades being in the top 0.3% national percentile
It was tough adjusting to the new environment, and it was clearly impossible for him to get a score of 0.1% as their were many language barriers, but he had learned to adapt, and was extremely confident that he will get a grade of 0.1% national percentile in his final year of studying abroad.
If not, he can forget about the additional contract for a free university scholarship of his choosing, and be sent home after graduating.
His best friend, Carl Rong had gotten a score of 0.6% national percentile, but he too is confident in getting into the 0.1% in his final year at the school.
Carl Rong is in the chess club and can be considered in the top 20 list for chess players in the entire nation.
Lucy Fei, the cold and arrogant queen of QBC had gotten a national percentile score of 0.2%, is in the netball sport club and was praised by many sporting scouts.
But with her tall and beautiful figure, coupled with being intelligent and fit, she is considered, a popular kid in the school.
Actually Eutang Lee is also a popular kid, his name was unique and he joined the boxing club. He was a pretty good fighter.
He was not a strong hitter, but is fast on his feet with quick reaction senses. So he became popular once people saw him in the ring, dodging many blows, some even call him Bruce Lee Jr.
June Wong, the short glasses wearing girl is also in the chess club, she has a national percentile score of 0.7%.
Jessica Huan the slightly chubby girl is in the female rugby club and had lost weight, she had gotten a national percentile score of 0.8%.
All in all, they were all monsters of the school, never getting a grade lower then A minus.
But in their final year, they must at least get an A+ for every subject, and score perfectly in their final test, to get a national percentile of 0.1%
He was now in Year 12, and was finally 17 years old, this will be his last year in QBC Private High School.
"Hey Eutang, have you heard of that new game called Trap Hunter? It is suppose to come out in a few minutes" A red headed young man said.
This was one of Eutang dorm roommate Freddy Smith, a rich kid that likes to throw money around on random things like loot boxes.
"The trailer for that game has created huge waves with 35 million views on hubtube, it will be strange for somebody to have not heard of it" Carl Rong said while tilting his glasses, he too was Eutang's Roommate.
"Isn't that game suppose to be an AR (Augmented Reality) mobile game, where you have to actually go outside to play. The game uses the GPS and camera function on your mobile phone to map out your gaming experience. But then you would have to go outside... the weather is too hot and there are bloody mozzies, insects, snakes and shit outside" A blonde headed young man said with annoyance, his name was Simon West.
"Yeah, hopefully it isn't pay to win, but whatever, hmmmm, oh it outs right now?" Carl Rong said in surprise.
Eutang had no idea what they were talking about, but he took out his phone and downloaded the app due to curiosity.
Australia supposedly has shit internet speed, but that's not counting their mobile data internet speed. Australia's mobile internet speed is pretty decent, not the best, but its mobile speed is ranked behind countries such as South Korea, Norway, Singapore etc.
So the four boys had downloaded the game fairly quickly, and after signing the terms of services agreement, a soft sweet sounding voice echoed into everyone's ears.
"Welcome to Trap Hunter"
