SI/Reincarnation as Lee's Twin. Why not? This is a completely random goofy plot bunny so be warned it is no where NEAR my serious stories. Lee Zi. Really. My name translates to purple plum. What am I, the Ninja version of Moon Moon?

I was three before the memories started. When they hit it was an all at once memory dump that knocked me out for a few days with the 'flu'. One moment I'd been a dorky chubby baby drooling all over without a thought. The next the most extreme fatigue and headache I'd ever had, like the massive migraine to end all migraine.

Some things I didn't remember. Names were hard, family had already been overwritten with Mother being the figure I saw as my new mother sort of thing. Where something didn't overlap though I remembered the Before. I remembered my native language not the one I was learning which is how I first paid attention with my suddenly adult mind as things were being written over as I learned them. Key things that is. Ideas. Names. Words. When I started learning to ask for soup the idea of chicken noodle was replaced by Miso. Whomever my older brother had been before now I could only think of my twin as my brother. I had no other siblings so the nebulous memory of having them before remained.

Grandmother told stories later on about how there are hammers that hit a soul when they go to reincarnate so they don't remember their lives before. Clearly, I'd been barely touched.

My name is Lee Ziwei. Yes, that Lee. It took me a lot longer to figure out I was in a world I had only followed up from the first ten or so episodes and then just from my friend's babbling I knew I was in for a future nightmare. Yeah, apparently the Naruto world? It's real.

It's still confusing.

The shock and adjustment period wasn't fun but luckily kids aren't really supposed to know what is going on so it was easy enough to brush off. By the time I was five I was resigned to the fact I knew nothing, remembered nothing really useful (Because Internet is awesome as is random Star Wars jokes and She Said but not any use here!) and was kicking myself that I hadn't been a bigger fan of the show. Need I point out how much I was hoping most of it was wrong? Because ninja zombies and bunny goddess crazy ladies from the moon? Not so fun. Sounded too much like DragonBall Z on a bender.

Oh god I can't drink for years...

It turns out my brother doesn't like his name Rokku. He says Lee Rokku sounds silly and he likes our surname better so it's what he is identifying by. He's switching them when he introduces himself. Like a dork. We're both stubborn so I don't say anything about it. I learned one thing fast, Konoha is surprisingly informal. Almost no one goes by last names here which makes life much easier and Lee's deception much gentler to pull off. Although Lizzyway took forever to hear as Lee, Ziwei.. Lee Zi always made me want to correct people to Lizzy and I knew that hadn't even been my name. But seriously. Ziwei was the north star, the place of the Celestial Emperor's purple palace..and shortened was Zi. Just Purple.

Our last name Lee meant Plum.

My Brother is literally Plum Rock or you know, the pit of it.

I'm Plum Purple, or Purple Purple since it's a purple hued fruit and..

Gross.

I'm the Ninja world's Moon Moon.

It turns out Ten-ten is our distant relative. Both our families came from near the Land of Iron and it's only with our father that we got any shinobi blood in us. Ten-Ten has it back into both of her parents for a single generation. Our families are Matriarchal which is awesome and little Ten-ten is already vicious with chopsticks. I like her.

Lee takes after our father, right down to the huge eyes and his lashes are crazy long like a cow. It's actually very pretty on him which makes me wonder why he was drawn so strangely in the show. He is loud and serious though with black hair and eyes and really pale. I take more after our mother and that's where the joke on my name gets even worse. You see, ninja can and often do have strange attributes. I'm pale as my brother, my eyes are gray not black. But it's the hair. Luckily it's really dark.

Purple hair runs in the family.

Yeah. Lee Zi has purple hair. Seriously who up there is laughing at me!? It used to be my favorite color too right there with blue but now if I wear it..ugh...I feel like a kid's toy. Because of course my parents think it's adorable that their little Plumblossom is in purple and..

Ugh.

That angst aside it really wasn't too bad. Lee (if I call him Rokku he pouts and it's adorable!) and I learned quickly that our chakra is very weak. Lee's coils are deformed and with lots of work he'll be able to tree walk and water walk but that's really about it. My reserves are nothing special either, smaller range of average. Our father's no higher then Chunin so it isn't a surprise. What was a surprise is that our mother is a dangerous little bitty thing and so are grandma and grandpa on her side. They moved with mother to help raise us so that our parents could have time alone. Or that is what they said, my brain heard it as 'saving face when we hauled outa town'.

Anyways, Mom let us be at our grandparent's mercy early. The Lee clan isn't well known and rarely produces ninja, it's mostly a civilian clan specializing in making sake. Yep. Apparently Drunken Fist style is hereditary and something of a clan secret. Allows even the untrained Lee members to kick some serious Bruce Lee style butt. We make lots of other liquors and I think it's another sign of someone laughing at me as plum wine used to be my cheap slutty drink of choice when I couldn't afford anything decent in College.

Regardless, I get distracted easily. And this is apparently part of my mother's fighting style. It's called the Nanashi form. Meaning no name. Yes. Marvel at our family and it's naming styles..moving on. The real reason for it is that samurai learned how to harness chakra without it being ninjutsu. Somewhere in my line one of my ancestors learned how to incorporate miniscule bits of chakra in precision with taijutsu to make a method that is female specific to take advantage of our slight builds and allow us to turn an opponent's strength and even chakra against them.

It requires absolutely insane chakra control. Thus while our Otou-san is out with Lee teaching him to throw a punch my Kaa-san is working with me on making a piece of paper stick to me. Did I mention I'm five?

Yeah. That weirdness about how the kids were insane fighting machines so young? Two things. One they have a calendar that is actually about double ours. So everyone's age? Double it. That means you graduate the academy at 24 and look like a pre-teen. Puberty takes twice as long. People who channel chakra seem to age slower in some weird way and it just..

It's creepy. Because one other thing like the Chinese back in my Before? They count the time you're in the womb as part of your age. That means I'm currently four if you count our way..but if you count my age as it is right now here in Konoha by their absolutely creepy who has almost 700 days in a year? I'm two and a half.

And I'm working on trying to find my chakra while my brother is outside learning to punch.

Why me?
