This was an unusual variation on an old tale.  The characters were well described and sympathetic, each in their own way. I particularly liked the way the voice changed for each of the characters.  When you are inside the head of a 16-year-old boy it was very different from when the voice of an adult took over; and the author did this seamlessly and made each one believable.  The ending should surprise you, too; so much for fairy tale endings!  I found this a fast-paced and truly enjoyable short.  Give it a try!  I'm sure you'll like it.
