"Papyrus!! No! Stop!!"
Snap! Drop. Roll...
"Papyrus!!!!"
Tears streamed her cheeks as she dropped the knife to the ground, eyes shaking as pupils dilated. She was silent as she stepped back slowly while the tall skeleton monster slowly turned to dust before her eyes.
The older, shorter of the two brothers rushed over, staring down at the mess with a hurt and broken gaze as his younger brother's dust carelessly blew away.
"I..." Was all she could get out at the moment, which drew Sans's eyes toward her. But he didn't look angry. There was no rage or hate there... only pain. "I'm sorry..." She muttered through trembling lips.

All accept for a few screens. Each screen had a different, short little 'movie' that played on it. A micro animation of specific events that played moments before the SAVE took place.
Her gaze darted around them until she made her choice, deciding on the second farthest back in time. After getting free of the ruins. Like hell she was going to go through that hell again...
With a bit more reluctance, she moved towards the screen and reached out her hand as her arm barely stretched forth towards it. Simply placing her hand on it and closing her eyes. "LOAD..."
