Hashirama's past crying from the sweet reunion was immediately faded into that of distress before readying himself for any attack. However, things didn't seem to matter as his younger brother now stood in front of him and taking a full on attack. Some how they'd gotten their weapons back in hand. "Get to the other thing" was Tobirama's only reply as he stoped Izuna from retreating back. "Don't you dare! You Damn Senju, you stay away from my brother!" Raged the younger Uchiha.

Although he felt bad, he took Tobirama's offer and went to Madara's side just in time to catch the male from stubblimg to the ground. It seemed as though he'd gone much paler than before. "Madara?" Hashirama asked, only to receive a weak hum in response. How worrisome.. Hashirama had thought as he raised his hand to the Uchiha's forehead and emitting healing chakra. After a moment or two Hashirama took a glance up to the two sparing pare.

Izuna released a hiss in pain as Tobirama gave an unexpected slash to his legs, though it didn't seem all that intended. As if Tobirama hadn't actually expected the attack to land. At this, Izuna gave a silent curse to himself for becoming so careless.

Now they stood, across from one another, katanas in hand, once more ready for any attempt at attacking. Tobirama's back was to Hashirama, as if he were protecting that damn Senju leader who held his brother captive. Just the thought caused his blood to boil.

The ravennetts eyes shift from charcoal to the dangerous blood red pools, the spinning tomoe's soon shifting into a complex pattern within his eyes. Tobirama's eyes remained trained anywhere but his eyes. His stance shifted to one of defense as he tried to anticipate his next move. Izuna simply scoffed quietly at this.

"Izuna." Started Tobirama. "Tobirama." Responded Izuna in a flat tone. His grip readjusting on his sword before shooting forward towards the albino Senju he was oh so familiar with fighting. However he knew his judgment of anticipation was clouded with his seemingly overwhelming emotions. Within the next few attacks and attempts at a power struggle, Izuna is knocked back, almost stumbling to the ground. Another few moments of tense silence, only filled with Izuna's soft breaths for air.

"Listen." Tobirama spoke up again. Irrigation immediately coursed though his system at all the attempts to speak. Suddenly Izuna shot forward catching Tobirama to stumble back a little. Much to the ravens pleasure. "What?" Hissed the Uchiha after a moment, still sounding rather breathless.

In taking a quick breath, he continued "Neither I nor my brother have done a thing to your brother." He paused, half expecting Izuna to attack or retort something, before going on. " when your brother suffered his accident, my idiotic brother went searching for him. Then after finding him, Hashirama decided that bringing him back to health was what he'd do before releasing him back to you." Another small pause as he feels Izuna push into him. "You'd just release him scotch free, huh? I find that hard to believe."  Izuna hissed out.

At this Tobirama furrowed his brows, "..much to my displeasure, yes." He mumbled, mostly to himself and going on before Izuna could counter, " Indeed. That was the original plan. However, when he'd awoken, your brother had no recollection of what happened or who he was, and has now been diagnosed with amnesia." Another small shove against him. Izuna spoke up again, "so what? I'm just supposed to believe that my enemy had nothing to do with my brothers memory loss? Even then! Who forget their own broth?!" Raved the upset Uchiha. To which Tobirama faltered at.

Izuna made a good point.. if he were in Izuna's situation, he probably wouldn't believe him either. Especially if his brother had forgotten him along with everything else. However.. "Izuna. My brother may be an idiot, but he is an honorable idiot, he wouldn't try mind games with anyone, let alone your brother.

Izuna remained quiet, staring holes into his own eyes, as if searching for proof, or maybe seeking for the lies he might have told. Taking a small in-take of air, a stupid thought came to mind, and before he could negate it. He found his eyes meeting with the dangers of the dark red sharingan. He felt himself become rigid with anticipation. Preparing to be thrust into a world of genjusu. However the feeling did not come. Instead he was simply given a look of.. Surprise? This shock gave Tobirama the unintentional moment to observe the others face.

The Uchiha's sharingan still spun slowly in it's place within Izuna's eyes. Upon further stating, he took note of the exhaustion that still laid evident, more so now than from the first chance he had to evaluate his face. Suddenly Izuna's eyes fell shut, a complicated look taking over his face before his eyes reopened them. His sharingan missing.

"That.. was absolutely stupid." Mumbled the Uchiha as he slowly backed away from him.

Maybe Hashirama was rubbing off on him.. at that thought Tobirama's face scrunched up slightly. "Hush, Demon brat." He mumbled back. Izuna opened his mouth, most likely to retort a snarky comment, however Hashirama's voice sounded from behind. "Guys."

Tobirama took a moment to glance back to Hashirama to find him kneeling on the ground, resting a collapsed Uchiha upon his lap. "Brother!" Izuna immediately made a move forward rushing towards the two, leaving Tobirama to follow behind. "What's wrong with him?" Izuna asked still seeming to remain cautious in the situation. "Well.. I'm not entirely certain.." Replied Hashirama looking nervously up to Izuna who as now crouching down to feel Madara's forehead. Hashirama simply ceased his healing chakra allowing the other Uchiha.

Hashirama glances to Tobirama before looking back to Izuna. "What ever has happened to Madara, we need to take him to the house." The Burnett spoke up, as he attempted to stand only to get a death glare sent his way. "What?! No! I'm taking him back home!" Izuna argued. In response Hashirama sent Tobirama a look, to which made the albino sigh. "As much as I hate to say, our house is the closest, and safest option at the moment. I doubt  in your condition, that you'd be able to carry your brother that whole way."

Izuna went quiet, silently worrying at his lower lip before he releases a sigh. "Fine. Just.. I'm not leaving him." A firm glare was hosted back in Hashirama's direction, then stood up his eyes gazing back to his brother. "Not again." Tobirama had heard the other whisper under his breath. Hashirama didn't seem to take notice, so it must've only been heard by him. Nonetheless Tobirama pretended not to hear it.

"Fine, but only after you get rid of the other beasts that are most likely to be rampaging around." The albino spoke before turning to Izuna. "I'll meet you there." Finally, with a hand seal, Tobirama disappeared. Izuna stared at the spot where the Senju had previously stood before shaking whatever thought he had been thinking and took a glance to his brother once more.

"I'll take care of him. I promise." Hashirama spoke softly as he carefully scooped the unconscious Uchiha into his arms and stood. Izuna remained quiet before turning around and huffing his arms crossing over his chest. "You better." Hissed the male before taking one last glance to his fallen elder brother, then taking off in the direction he supposed the rest of the Uchiha clan was.

With that said and done Hashirama heaved a sigh of his own and glanced down to the unconscious male within his arms. He still seemed a little too pale, however there was still signs of his condition improving. With another sigh Hashirama also took off.

He wondered what had caused Madara to collapse like that.. Supposedly being overwhelmed in some way? That was his theory anyway. Another glance was spared to the male. "How troublesome.." mumbled Hashirama, and with one last glance to Madara, the Burnett looked ahead to his fast approaching destination.
