### History

Yu Jie was born to Yu Feng on February 14th, only minutes before her twin brother, Yu Tingguang. They were born in a tent beside a war zone, during the civil war in the Northen Empire, where the monarchy were being challenged by dictators. Their mother, Yu Feng, was kidnapped and made into a slave that served the supremacist, Luke Vincenta - the biological father of Yu Jie and Tingguang.

#### Pre TFM

Yu Jie lived in a remote area with her mother and brother, where Yu Feng solely raised them and educated them on their native morals, cultures and virtues. Luke Vincenta visited sometimes to drop off food and to ensure that she was raising his children correctly, but he never spoke to Jie or Tingguang - he didn't even know their names nor bothered to learn. As long as they were still alive, he was satisfied.

One day, he stormed in with his superiors behind him. He showed them his eligibility to rule and introduced his children as *Malina* and *Paris Vincenta*, and Yu Feng as his wife, *Maria Luke*. Yu Feng was furious and screamed at him, but he knocked her out with his gun before turning back to his superiors, proud to show how ruthless he was willing to be.

Time went by and Yu Feng was declared dead, with the cause unknown. Malina didn't remember when this was, but from this point on she and Paris had both let go of their Northern heritage, forgetting all of what their mother had taught them and eventually their mother as a whole. They moved from their remote area and began living in the main city with their father, existing as children of a communist and attending a school with other communist children.

Malina excelled in school but was undermined for being a woman and looking like a Northern, she was often bullied for her race but she always fought back. The school deemed her 'insane' and 'savage', which reflected poorly on Luke and thus he lost power. He was forced to follow another leading communist, Saif.

At 12, Malina was picked up after school and was not sent home. Instead, she was dropped off at a strange, large house and was rushed inside by women. They stripped her of her clothes and dressed her in a traditional wedding dress. They gave her a drink, laced with a toxin, and she walked down the aisle and was forced to marry Saif's third son - Rohit Saif, who was 15 at the time. They were both labelled as troublemakers, so their fathers believed this was the best way to remedy the problem. Malina was forced to drop out of school to take care of her husband, who still attended school but was training in the Northern Ninjutsu Academy - which he was to inherit if Saif successfully became the dictator of the North - which he did a few months later.

At 15, Malina hadn't seen Paris for 3 years, until Rohit mentioned someone who almost bested him at the school. Rohit laughed saying he was three years younger and had a funny name. Rohit helped disguise Malina into entering the Ninjutsu training programme and she trained heavily, becoming the top of her class quickly. She excelled through, succeeding those ahead of her and finally entered the class Paris was in. He was thriving and was popular and everyone was eager to see them both fight each other.
