[Some background Info]
Tang Yao is a regular high school student who is 16 but doesn't interact with other's that often. He lives in a family of 4, his younger sister Jie Yao, his mother Li Yu, and his father Wei Yao. When he was young he was regarded as a prodigy in martial arts, and was trained by his grandfather until his death, when Tang Yao was 15. However, both his parents resented martial arts, and did not want their child to pursue it, so they moved to America soon afterwards. There Tang Yao changed dramatically, he was often bullied because, he was foreign, and did not speak English very well, but his Academics (Math, Science, English, History) were all very good, which caused many to envy him. There his personality changed, he ended up deciding to only interact with people when it was necessary, and he resented his parents for bringing him, and his younger sister (who was 14) to America. Though not all was bad, due to the persistence of a person named Alexander, he eventually became, very good friends with him.

Fast Forward - Present Day

It was a dark night, due to the nagging of his parents, Tang Yao had to go to dinner with his family at a restaurant called Red Lobster. Now he was on the way home refusing to speak to his parents, and only the occasional bicker with his sister Jie Yao.
"Tang Yao, I know you don't like us very much, but atleast put some effort into making some friends." said a woman that appeared to be in her late 40's. She was Tang Yao's mother Li Yao.
"As if. Those white people only know how to judge, and be jealous of others." snorted Tang Yao.
"That's enough Tang Yao! We have put up with so much to have you come to America to live a better life, the least you could do is respect us!" shouted a burly man, while slamming the breaks on the car, he was Tang Yao's father Wei Yao.
"SHIT! Are you trying to kill us?" furiously yelled Tang Yao, after slamming his head into the seat in front him, while stopping his younger sister from slamming her head. "What the fuck is wrong with you, first you brought us away from China, then your trying to kill us?"
"Trying to kill you as if! I saved you from becoming a muscle head only obssessed with martial arts like your useless grandfather. Listen to me Tang Yao, you don't only need martial arts, and smarts to live in this word. You also need to have connections, without connections you won't be able to get anywhere. That is why I'm trying to have you make some friends." The man turned around, and looked at Tang Yao in his eye.
"God damn it, for the last time I -"
Before Tang Yao could say it, a bright light came out of nowhere.
---------
Tang Yao opened his eyes.
What happened?
He carefully observed his surrounding, it appeared that he was in a hospital. He remembered that he and his father were having another argument before, a bright light came out of no where. 'Wait a minute, did we get hit by a truck?'
Where's Jie Yao (Tang Yao's Sister)?
Tang Yao tried getting up but, was hit by a truck load of pain, he carefully observed his body and realized that he was connected to all sorts of machines, and bandaged all over. 'Fuck, I was injured more severely than I thought, fucking trucks, this is what happens when we come to America, Fucking Drunk Driving. If I ever see the person that drove that truck, I'm gonna kill him.'
A tall blonde lady walked into the room, She looked at Tang Yao, and then started walking away. Then suddenly rushed back, with her mouth open before shouting.
"How the hell are you awake, your suppose to be in a Coma."
"Huuuuuuuuhhh? WHAT!"
Tang Yao frowned, what did she mean by Coma.
"How long was I out for?"
"Out For? You barley out for a day after that accident, according to our machines, you should of been paralyzed from the neck down, and in a vegetative state."
Frowned the blonde lady.
Wait a minute, I was suppose to be paralyzed from the neck down? ' HAHAHA, FUCK YEAH I TOLD YOU DAD, MARTIAL ARTS FUCKING PAID OFF.' before he could finish his thought.
"Both your parents are dead, and your sister is going to be bed ridden for the rest of her life, unless a miracle happens."
Bluntly said the Lady. "You should consider yourself lucky for being able to wake up this early. You should rest, you have several bones broken, and that will take quite a bit off time before your healed."
Before Tang Yao could say anything, the nurse quickly left the room. 'Fucking white people, they just pop in and tell you whats going on, they don't bother staying any longer.' What the hell am I going to do now, both my parents are dead, and my sister is bed ridden for the rest of her life.
When Tang Yao was thinking about his next course of action, a tall, and slightly fat kid appeared in his door way.
"Holy Shit, shouldn't you be dead?"
Exclamied the Fat kid, rushing to put his arms around Tang Yao.
"Fuck you Alex. STOP STOP THAT HURTS!"
"Well Damn, looks like you get hurt pretty badly."
"Fuck I don't have enough time to think about that, I need to find a way to take care of my sister, and pay for our living expenses."
"I can help you by giving you a few hundred dollars, by I can't do any more than that."
"Fuck, I was planning on relying on you any way, can you recommend me a few part time jobs?"
"Sure! McDonald is always hiring with a good wage of 10 dollars an hour. Sub Way is hiring with a wage of 14 dollars, and Red Lobster is hiring with a wage of 10 dollars an hour plus tip."
Tang Yao was cursing in his mind, 'Fuck am I suppose to work my self to death? Even if I work extremely hard, at most I can only early around 200 dollars at Red Lobster, and 140 dollars at Subway by working 10 hours at each!.'
"Shit, do you have any other idea's?"
"Well yeah actually I do. You know the new game called Reverie that is being released in 2 months, apparently, you can trade in game currency for real life money. As much as 1000 USD per 1 gold coin!"
"Fuck, why didn't you tell me that from the start?"
"Well. You need a capsule to play the game, and that alone cost a thousand dollars."
"Well, hey since your my friend why don't you buy me one?"
"I would but, I can't each person is limited to only being able to buy 1, but if you need any food, just ask me!"
"Fuck you, Fatty!"
Tang Yao and Alex chatted for a bit before, Alex had to leave, once again leaving Tang Yao alone in his hospital room.
