She has this vague awareness of the noise and movement around her, but it’s almost like she’s already underwater. Everything drowned out by the sound of her blood rushing through her body, her heart pounding against her ribcage as she tries to surge deeper. Her movements look uncoordinated, like she hasn’t figured out that she can’t keep running. The disconnect between her body and mind, keeping her from trying to swim instead
It’s not that she can’t hear Sirius, or even feel him at her back but it's as if he’s trying to halt the momentum of an unstoppable force, Rose managing to shift them a few inches deeper before the struggle causes her feet to lose traction in the silt.
“Let me go.” The guttural demand rips at her throat as soon as she registers the arms that bind her, Rose trying to tear herself free even though they both know she's capable of putting him down. There is no training at this moment, though, no calculated moves to get to her target. All she has is the knowledge that Elena is in there and she has to get to her.

She has to. She has to. She has to.
