Recap: 

"Shouldn't she be awake by now?"

"I don't know, dumbass. How hard did you hit her?"

"Not lethally," Madara snaps. Good enough. But he's right. Even a more inexperienced shinobi should be conscious again by now.

Tobirama shrugs and forms a few hand seals. Madara steps aside just in time before Tobirama finishes.There's a gust of wind and icy water splashes into the hostage's face.

She jolts and comes to life with a cough. 

The hostage sputters and gasps like she just drowned, heaving for air while frantically wriggling against the bonds.

Tobirama groans inwardly.
His patience is more than strained at the moment and the hostage's annoyingly hectic demeanor is not helping in the slightest. This place–this mistake of a reality...he is already dreading it.

There's also Madara. Kami help him, the only thing keeping Tobirama from maiming the man permanently is his brother's anger, which he knows will await him if he'd do so. If he thinks about it though, he's gotten pretty good at withstanding Hashirama's Famous Fits of Fury, so-

That's something for another day, because Tobirama is exhausted. Even though throwing fists with Madara would undoubtedly cheer him up he can't seem to get all excited about it. Something is most definitely wrong.

The fatigue of the last few hours—the battlefield, the endless void he tried to escape and the scouting for a solution of their little situation—it's all clawing at Tobirama's (annoyingly weak) body. And there are still several pressing issues on his to-do list that will definitely require a little time, thought and energy.

Firstly, he needs to get behind those dome formed shields and neutralize any possible threats so he can focus on his actual work—namely transporting himself (and maybe Madara if he behaves) to Konoha, giving Hashirama a good beating and stuffing them back into their old bodies. Not in that order.

Tobirama has a few ideas, a few theories regarding their travel and the weird adjustment on their bodies but he will have to test them before confirming anything.

It seems like the hostage has caught herself because her eyes flick between their faces and her expression goes very quickly from panicked to irritated and stern. Tobirama is almost surprised when she speaks.

"This is not funny!" She snaps something, but the words tumble out in a language he doesn't understand. "Especially as first years you should avoid getting in trouble. This will have serious consequences!" Madara and Tobirama share a quick glance and he can read the what-the-fuck-is-she-saying from Madara's eyes with ease.

The hostage rambles on and her voice is strict and a little shrill, but also not hostile at all. For a moment she sounds like a mother scolding her children and that thought stings in a way Tobirama didn't think it would.

It's probably his immature body getting in the way, but-

The hostage's gaze falls on the broken little stick a few feet away and her voice reaches a pitch. Madara looks confused and also very ready to slap her to shut her up, but Tobirama shakes his head at him.
Her neck looks so thin and fragile he fears it's going to break at so much as a 'friendly slap' from Madara.
