He opened his eyes, looking up at the dusk cloudless sky, the stars coming out. Somehow he had been thrown out of the water when he got hit. He placed his hand over the bloody stump that used to be his right ear.

"He's a little scrawny," he heard said behind him. He turned, his rifle out of reach.
"What?" he said turning.
"You have a choice. We kill you and cook you here, or come with us to feed our army against the New World Government. Your duty to your country to help feed the fight for freedom."
That didn't seem much of a choice to him. Killed here or cattled like others, and ate later.
