[ WP ] American Civil War 2 . Write as a soldier that is explaining how you chose the side you are on to your squad .

The trench reeked. The floor was covered in an inch of stagnant water. His boots had n't been dry in a week. Jeb lay prone under the fire, bleeding from a bullet that was buried in his shoulder. 
 
 The second civil war. That's what the recruiter had called it. Jeb knew he would enlist the day he turned eighteen. Those savages on the other side needed to be put right. They needed to learn the fear of God. 
 
 Ignoring the searing agony in his shoulder, Jeb took his rifle and crawled through the muck. He pushed himself up with his good arm, then scraped the mud from his barrel. He scanned the line for one of the dirty'cakers'. 
 
 The nerve of those psychos. They spit on the very fundamentals of liberty. The 2024 election had been divisive enough, but the new president had the nerve to serve cake at the innaguration. Cake! The saying is n't'as American as apple'cake'! It's Pie! Always pie. 
 
 `` I hope you like your cake with a side of eternal damnation'' he muttered as he exhaled and slowly squeezed the trigger. One less cake-eater treading on liberty in the world.
