I'd never let that get in the way of a good idea - after all, it's a prompt not a command, and, to me at least, half the fun is finding a novel interpretation - I love to read stuff that is outside the box.
This is both compact and comprehensive, lovely use of sharp 'action' words to pull us into the feverish moment of the raid... and then the slowdown, like the relax of a bow, in that last line - very nicely done!

And I love this drabble, the way your language pulls us right into the action: swift, violent, clashing, confusion Excellently done!

Well done on an unusual use of the prompt, and a really good drabble!
