- This option uses a future continuous tense which can sound awkward here.

- It implies an ongoing action that might not fit well with discrete outcomes like "prisoner" or "shooting."

- Option 2: "The enemy either takes you prisoner or shoots you."

- This option is present tense, which could imply immediately happening actions.

- It's grammatically sound for immediate decisions.

- Option 3: "The enemy would either take you prisoner or shoot."

- The sentence is incomplete after "shoot," missing the object "you."
