Nice twist! Thought this was excellent – great foreshadowing at the beginning leading up to an exciting twist. I love ficlets that can tell a whole story in such a limited space and you pulled it off well!
This is brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I agree with Melia, the foreshadowing is great. And the last line really pulls the whole thing together, without revealing too much. Sequel coming up?
I had a stray thought about what Satan would do if he went into a confessional. Would he go there to confess or to gloat? The last line was actually the first line I wrote. I just knew I wanted to end it on that note.
