Eponine falls too from the impact, landing heavily on top of Sandy. And then suddenly, a feeling of deja vu washes over her, and she remembers the last arena, Ruffnut landing on her, and them fighting to get up, to crawl over one another. Eponine had been the loser then, but she was determined for it not to be so that time. So she clings on with as much force as she can, and tries to clumsily lift Sandy's head and slam it back to the floor, hoping to knock her opponent out.
