So, as you're all probably aware, Blood Stained Sanctuary was a last minute rewrite added by Studio Pixel after friends/play testers were unhappy with the original ending Pixel had gone for. After digging threw some the 2004 BBS log, and some help by majikman and a translation by MechanoPixel, here is what we could off gotten. The post it comes from was from early June, 2004, roughly 6 1/2 months before Cave Story finished production. Enjoy!
[Note: Hashimoto should be Sakamoto]
■ About the ending
After the Doctor is defeated, you'll have a battle with the more-powerful Core, and when you defeat it: If you're still alive, Curly will come out and stop you, saying "That's enough!" If you're no longer alive, Hashimoto will come out and say "You did it, so now let's finish him off!" and, if either of them attack even once, the island will collapse with an explosion. Everyone falls randomly, but Kazuma saves them. However Sue and the rest of the Mimigas are falling randomly everywhere. (It may be more fun if in this part you could move the dragon yourself and catch them.) Finally, the member who survived reach the ground, with endless words of regret or repentance. The End.
However, if you don't attack for about 10 seconds and just wait there, If Curly, she will say, "But, what can we do...", if Hashimoto, he will say, "What are you doing? Hurry up!". If you wait another 10 seconds or so, Sue and Jenka will warp in. Then, there will be a dialog about how magic might be able to calm the core down, and Jenka will try her best. However, her magic is too weak to do anything about it, and while she's in trouble Misery will appear. After being persuaded by Jenka and seeing the Doctor's end, she decides to help. Then, just as Misery started to help, the Core suddenly moves and tries to crush everyone. At this point you are able to move again, however if you fire even one shot the island will collapse. Everyone pushes against it and right at the moment when everyone is about to be crushed, Balrog will appear. He says "Aaa, I'm always the one doing this!" while desperately pushing the Core back. Finally, Misery is able to calm the Core down with her magic. Afterwards the rest of the story moves on, perhaps to Naoku's suggestion of 'the rebuilding of the island'. The End. It's not that great. Sorry. It may be better if more sub-characters will appear.

. It was a pitch by one of the playtester buddies of his when Pixel knew he wanted an extra ending but hadn't figured it out yet. Pixel didn't even respond to this ending idea.
