M's eye view...
I remember the day well, it was a cold and windy british winter day as Q and Bond where on the hunt for the missing missile blue prints on a laptop in some god forsaking part of London. everything was going well until i heard an almighty bang in my ear piece as if someone had fired a shot.
"Bond, respond" I said with authority
"We have an operative down, I repeat we have an operative down. Q's been shot in the chest and we need medical assistance Now, what is the ETA" Bond said frantically as he tried to stem the flow of blood pouring out of Q's chest.
My heart started to beat faster as I heard these words come off his lips yet i kept my cool and calm way about me as i responded to him, yet it was hiding the fear I was feeling the same fear I felt when I almost lost Bond during the skyfall incident.
"Five minutes Bond, keep it together" I told Bond in a calm assured way hiding my fear and worry I would lose another operative inside the space of a month
I could hear James' frantic words to Q to try and keep him awake, to focus on him. I knew those two where lovers but i didn't know the depth of there love until Bond invited me out for dinner at his house, Q made a lovely roast beef dinner with all the trimmings. they where in there element together, as any loving couple should..
Now I was hearing in my ear piece, the potential dismantling of that loving couple though an evil doers bullet.
"Bond, I can hear the ambulance. Can you see it?" I asked
"Yes, but Q is in dire straits" Bond answered, between gasping breaths of despair.
There was a few long minutes between the time Bond said the ambulance arrived and when bond spoke the words I dreaded to hear. The ambulance arrived too late to save Q.
"Q's Dead, he died in my arms and there was no way I could have save him"
And I give a long and deep sigh... I've lost another Operative...
End
