Everyone stared, rather amused, at a pouting Madara Uchiha sitting, quite pathetically, inside a sphere of water created by one Zabuza Momochi. Kakashi smirked. All he had to do now was wait until the old coot died of oxygen loss...
Now, how did Madara get trapped in said sphere of water in the first place? Well, it went like this...
Fifteen minutes earlier, after leaving the comatose Demon Brother to the animals, they were in a rowboat. Well, Team 7 was in a rowboat. Hashirama, Tobirama, and Madara all decided to walk beside the boat, causing the three Genin to stare in awe at them.
"Ne, ne, Madara-ojii! Can you teach me to do that!" Naruto shouted, completely ignoring the shush that came from the rower. Madara chuckled, and patted Naruto on the head.
"Sorry Naruto-kun. You need to complete the Tree Walking exercise first." Sakura peered up at Madara.
"Tree walking?" She asked. Naruto tilted his head in confusion.
"Yeah, yeah! Madara-ojii what'cha mean by that!" They never got a response, as they had reached land. Team 7 was left to clamber out of the boat as the three resurrected men walked on.
After walking for a few more minutes, Naruto suddenly flung a kunai into a bush. Tobirama nodded proudly at him, even though the only thing that came from the bush was a white rabbit. Sakura whacked Naruto on the back of his head.
"YOU IDIOT! Why the hell did you throw that kunai for! You scared that poor rabbit!" Naruto gasped, and rushed to the rabbit, petting and hugging it to calm it down. Hashirama narrowed his eyes.
"...white..." He muttered, looking around for any threats. Madara smirked, and looked up into a tree.
"Now, this one's not so much of an amateur!" He made a few hand seals in quick succession. "Fire Style! Dragon Flame Jutsu!" A large fire dragon flew from his mouth to the tree. A swish was heard, before Madara disappeared. Reappearing a few seconds later on a small river a few feet away. "Got you!" He said, Sharingan whirling to life in his eyes. His eyes widened fractionally. "No you're not the real-" Water rushed up from below and enclosed him.
"Water Style, Water Prison Jutsu." Madara pouted. He glared at a laughing Hashirama.
"SHUT UP HASHIRAMA!" He shouted, but that just made the First Hokage laugh harder.
"Y-You-" Laugh. "-got caught by-" More laughing. "-a man in cow-print parachute pants!" He laughed more, causing two of the three Genin behind him to snicker. Kakashi coughed.
"That's Zabuza Momochi. A-Rank missing Mist nin." Hashirama smirked.
"Still, he's wearing parachute pants. Cow-print ones! How un-ninja like is that!" Madara glared, and did a few hand seals.
"I'LL KILL YOU! Fire Style! Fireball Jutsu!" The rather large stream of fire that spewed out of his mouth didn't even leave the ball of water he was in. "OW! OW! HOLY HELL THAT'S HOT!" He shouted, as the water bubbled and boiled from his fireball. Everyone watched, both amused and horror-stricken, as his skin seemed to peel and heal all over again. An uncomfortable silence settled on them all. It was Hashirama who broke it, by laughing once more.
"Come on Madara! Even I know you can't break out of a Water Prison by Fireball! Geez sometimes you're stupider than Naruto-kun!"
"HEY!" Came the shout from both Naruto and Madara. Kakashi sighed, as did Tobirama, while Madara just glared and pouted.
