Chapter 2 – A new mission

A heavy fog rolled over MI6 headquarters as James Bond sat on a wooden bench smoking a fat cigar. He was a fowl mood it been six boring moths since M even let him do paper work. In truth he could see why, there were younger, stronger, and faster 00s signing up every day and even with all his experience he was no match for them in training.

Most days he sat around thinking of how well he had done in his early years. He puffed hard on his cigar trying to lose himself in old memory of a pretty girl. Jumping into the air he was shocked at the sound of his walkie-talkie crackling on his belt.

"Calling 007, calling 007," said Moneypenny in her sweet voice.

"007 here, what do you want?" asked Bond a note of bitterness in his low voice.

"There's something going on in M's office, she needs you right away."

There was a moment's silence on Bond's end as he thought to himself that M was giving another change. Then he pulled himself together and said with his old confidence

"Right, Bond out."

He ran up the steps toward the oak door to M's office and pounded hard on it with his right hand.

"Come in 007," said a weak sounding M.

She was behind her paper filled desk a glass of scotch in one hand and folder stamped Top Secret in the other. Her steel gray eyes were bright with coldness as she saw Bond step out of the pale light.

"Sit down James," she said as her lips formed around her whiskey glass. "You know I wouldn't call you unless I really needed you, so don't think I like you."

"Never," said Bond with his old boyish chem. M frowned at the statement.

She pushed a button under her desk a screen came sliding down. There was a photo of old man of 60 lying dead on the floor.

Clearing her throat M began to speak "This is Don Kindler, he owned Kindler Power which is worth eight million dollars. He was found dead last night in his cabin in up state New York and his son was killed in a robbery a day before."

"What's some dead old Robber Baron got to do with MI6?" asked Bond sliding further down his chair.

"All in time 007, all in time," said M in a flat voice.

"Time's the thing I hate the most," stated Bond like an impatient child.

"There is one member of the family left, Emily Kinder she witnessed her brother being killed, that's not all she was threatened by a local terrorist group."

Bond pretended to lean forward on the edge of his seat. M ignored him and continued,

"The mastermind behind them is Jon Zae, he told miss Kindler if she does not give him the family fortune she'll be burned alive, and you know our policy we do not negotiate with terrorists."

Bond knew he was getting another chance so he said "I will do my duty for my Queen and country."

"James I want you protect her until Zae can be found. "And for god shake don't get her pregnant,"

Bond pretended not have heard her because he knew if M had warned him not get her pregnant she must be very beautiful.
