FOOOOOM!

The world around started to crumble; the ground shook and quaked, and the sky filled with endless streams of red CODE. The SAVE POINT grew more luminescent by each passing moment, and blinding streams of rainbow illustrated the vacuum-sucking power it had on the world, spiraling rapidly into the SAVE POINT in a chaotic whirlwind.

Frisk tried with all their might to push back against the fur-coated hands that were overflowing with buttercup flowers. They stared up in absolute horror at the melting face before them. What was once familiar and comforting now contained an abstract and twisting grin of the demon that comes when people call its name.

*Eat this, my child; it will make you nice and strong! The words were familiar-but the voice was something built out of the best nightmare that any mind could hands persisted, but Frisk kept their mouth clamped shut and determination high as buttercup petals were jammed against their face and lips.

*SANS!

The eloquent voice screamed at the top of her lungs, and weed vines creaked and groaned as they stretched against the struggling of a company of monsters.

*Sans! Take the BLOODY SHOT!
Sans' gaze darted between the illuminating light swirling before him, his friends-no, his family-entangled in the vicious and thorny vines, and up at the Gaster-Blaster that was ready to fire at his command. His arm shook violently against the vine, forcing it to stay up with his aim; his bones rattled, and he could feel decimals starting to count down agonizingly on his HP.

*SANS!

What if he missed?

*SANS!

What if he hit either her or them?

*Sans, DO IT!

Sans' teeth grit and grounded, he took aim, and clamped his eye sockets shut.
