Thanks very much, Derpy. There would have been more bam boom punch pow kick evil murder if it weren't for that pesky word limit. I'm upset with myself because none of my stories have exceeded 5000 words in the draft except for this (which was like 6500). I had to cut it down a lot but now that it has been judged I'll see what I can add back into it.

I don't think the 'twist' was really a twist, so much as it was dramatic irony. We see these 19-20 year old getting butchered, having an idea that they are probably innocent, whilst the protagonist can't stop hailing himself as a hero until he finally figures it out.

Thanks for the review, and thanks for hosting the contest. As I said somewhere down there, I'm pleasantly surprised that I'm getting this positive feedback. When I wrote this I was aiming more for comedic elements than story, and was worried that I had failed at both. Thanks for proving me wrong!
