Shocking, positively shocking
Los Angeles California, USA the Hollywood bowl
1964 0:12:00:0 midnight
A large while bowl which it is famous for holding concerts and events in sunny Los Angeles, it was only a few days ago a concert was held and a famous British band was playing called the Beatles. This place is called the Hollywood bowl as numerous of empty seats are here and now it is the stroke of midnight as it is a cloudy night and warm as well, a slight breeze is blowing and a night watch man is about to do his rounds of the Hollywood bowl in which his hat blows off from head due to the wind.
He turned on his flash light as the power is off to the Hollywood bowl in which he began to look for his hat and eventually he found it, but he sniffed something in the air that was most fowl as if something is rotting or dead. He sighed deeply in knowing this happened sometimes as a dead animal must be nearby, the security guard will let the clean-up crew know about the smell. Then all of a sudden something caught his attention by way of his flash light as if someone is lying on the concrete grounds of the bowl.
The security guard sighed as he suspected some drunken wino or some homeless person must be sleeping upon the grounds, it usually happens every once in awhile. So he goes over and to his discovery it is none of that at all, as he flashes his flash light upon the scene that made his jaw drop and it is a grisly scene. A suited man lies dead with a gun shot wound to the forehead as his body is in a pool of blood. However what else he sees that made him almost lost his composure.
The other person is a toon, which is rare to see them in Los Angeles walking around, but not an ordinary toon. More like a cartoon rabbit in which the security guard is or was a big fan of this toon during his childhood of the 40's, this toon rabbit is or was bigger than Bugs Bunny and his name is or was Roger Rabbit. He looked lifeless with a large hole to his chest, apparently he is dead and here he thought nothing could kill a toon.
Well maybe except for that rumored substance called dip by someone called Judge Doom of Toontown which that place had been completely forgotten about over the years. To see his childhood hero dead was shocking, positively shocking and he chocked up in looking at this grisly scene in which he thought the Korean war he was in was bad, but this is worse. However he toughed up and knows he has to report this right now as he runs back up the stairs and heads to nearby phone and dialed 911.
"LAPD here how may I help you," asked the officer
"I like to report a double murder in the Hollywood bowl," said the security guard "Please send your officers down here right away,"
"Understood, we will be there," said the officer

London England, the United Kingdom
1964 0:1:45:0 hours afternoon time, two days later
The busy streets of London is very transparent as double-decker buses come and go as an old structure stands firm as it used to be the old war office, which it is now owned by a company called Universal Exports. However what little people know is, it's a front for the British secret service known as MI-6 to the government and a mysterious gentleman had just walked inside the building itself as if he works there and very few people on the streets asked what goes on in the building known as Universal Exports.
The mysterious man walked quickly through the open office area, his feet felt constricted within the leather shoes; and the noise of the busy departments new found sense of calm, listening to the operators talking to field agents around the world, he picked up more than ten different languages being offended his spoken during the twenty seconds it took him to cross the office.
He walked down the corridor of the building. The sun had been pummeling rays onto the side of it all morning. Inside, the effect was much the same. The air conditioning was on, and the fluorescence from the incessant overhead lights was stark. Suits busied themselves around him, but none captured his interest; instead he just looked from one side to the other and lifted a hand to rub absent-mindedly at the bone which curved down from temple to cheek. The doors to the office slid open.
A woman is at her desk and is doing her make-up as there is a cup of coffee there, along with a few files and then a hat is flung across the room that startled her and had a feeling who it was who did that, in fact he does it all the time as the man walked in. He looked tall about 6 ft 2 190lbs with jet black hair and icy blue eyes as he is dressed in a brown business suit with a silky black tie and shined leather shoes, on his right wrist is a watch and there is a slight lump to indicated he has something concealed in his suit.
"James," said the woman "Must you always do that, if you are going to impress a girl at least take her out for the night,"
"Now, now Miss Money Penny," said James as he leaned on her desk "If I took you out, all the other ladies would be jealous of her majesty's best kept secret,"
"And what would that be James?" asked Money Penny
"Your award wining body," said James "As that would be the very reason,"
Money penny, M's personal assistant, was a slightly attractive, 5'7" and 132 pound Caucasian woman, with red hair, slim build, and slightly under average sized breasts. She and Bond flirted quite often, and hen the intercom on her desk spoke "Money penny, would you send Commander Bond in immediately?" the he waved to Money penny then he open the door as he walked inside M's office.
M the director of MI-6 is known as Admiral Miles Mesverly as the man is over fifty in which he is at his desk, wearing glasses and going over paper work as he sees his top man walk in the room and he puts down his pipe in which to give him his next mission as he watched Commander Bond sit down in the chair and cross his legs
"Getting rather old, are we now, M?" he had a crocked half smile,
M was not amused as he said "Do you have a wish to lose your job?"
He looked at him as he said "No,"
He glared at him and rubbed his hands together, as they will discuss the next mission of his
"Any problems, sir?" asked Bond
"That's generally the case when you're called in, Double-Oh Seven." said M "Tell me commander what do you know of cartoons,"
"I know they on television, suggests fantasy adventures and all sorts of other nonsense for small children," said Bond "Overall that is just about it, sir,"
"Two nights ago," said M "A toon named Roger Rabbit was murdered, along side one of our diplomats at the Hollywood bowl in Los Angeles,"
"I see," said Bond "And why should MI-6 be concerned about this,"
"It is a concern of MI-6 because of a object was found on the diplomat," said M "A black ring with a symbol,"
M takes out a picture and shows his top agent; James arched a brow at this as he had seen a ring just like this one before.
"I have seen that ring on Dr. No," said Bond "He made a mention of a collection of criminal brains called SPECTRE,"
"I don't believe in coincidences," said M "Commander, all the more reason why I want you to investigate this and discover what SPECTRE is about, along with why a notable cartoon character was with one of our diplomats, understood,"
"Will do sir," said Bond "The last time I was in Los Angeles was when I was a teenager, it was an interesting experience,"
AN: A young James Bond did went to Hollywood in a young Bond book
"Very well you may go now," said M
James Bond nodded, as he got up from his seat and walked out the door as he got plane ticket from Money Penny as he complained she had never been to sunny California, but James simply kissed her on the cheek and walked out to go about his mission.
