Quick Wipe.
Night. Bond and Vanderstock have driven over to Leuven and halt at a tall building with an ad outside for DigiAge.
“Stay on the lookout, I won’t be long.”
Bond steps out of the car, dressed fully in black, his head is also covered. Runs to the building. Looks at his watch and twists the ring on it, the equipment on his hands and feet make a light sound as they are now able to let him climb the building. After a few moments he reaches the 10th floor. He takes off one glove and twists the ring on his finger, placing it on the window next to him and it breaks away. Gets inside and places two dead birds on the floor with the glass. Takes off his headpiece and grabs his Walther PPK. Looks around the desk and
lifts a painting to check for a safe. Doesn’t find anything and opens slowly the door out. Looks outside. Sees two guards with flashlights coming near. Gets back into the room and waits for them to pass. Opens door again and sneaks into opposite direction. Silently takes the stares up two floors and opens door. Sneaks into closest room. Goes to desk and opens draws. Looks through the files there and closes them again. Hears steps and sneaks to next to the door, has gun ready. Door opens and old man looks inside shining with flashlight.
“Guess it was nothing”
Man leaves again. Bond rushes over to the desk again and continuous to look. Finds under the desk, taped to it a remote control. Looks at it and hits a button, the window slides open. Quickly closes window. Looks more closely to the remote and pushes a new button. A piece of wall moves away and reveals a safe. Bond takes a little machine out of his pocket and places it on the safe, it makes a light buzz-sound and then drops silent. The safe opens up. Quickly looks through it. Turns around and looks through the room. Shakes head in disbelief of not finding anything. Checks the room again. Ponders. Looks at the remote again and presses two buttons at the same time. The desk moves away and up comes a little safe, with the same machine does Bond open this one again. He looks inside and takes out the only file that was in it and reads. Places it on the desk and takes out his little camera (see Moonraker) and photographs the documents. Places them back, lowers the safe and closes the other and slides the wall and the desk back. Looks around to make sure everything is back to previous state. Walks to the door and listens.
Opens door. Looks in the hallway and spots video camera aimed directly at his face. A few moments later, an alarm goes off. Hears guards running to the place and runs to the stairs. Opens door, sees two guards coming up. Quickly closes it and swiftly follows the hall on his left. After a few steps sees more guards rushing over. Turns around and jogs into the other hallway. The door of the staircase opens, but Bond quickly closes it, followed by a stumbling of a falling guard. Sees this hallway is free but doorless so has to keep running. Looks back while running and sees guards with the flashlights aiming at him. Dives quickly next to a little table as a bullet passes by. Aims and shoots down a guard, hitting him in the leg. Shoves the table to the other guards and runs away. A guard appears in front of him, aiming at his head. Bond drops to the ground and slides under the guard, stands up and gives him a back-kick. The guard falls down and Bond follows the hallway which makes a turn. He keeps running and dives to corners when people shoot at him. Finally sees the stairs again which is now only guarded by two guards. He knocks one down with his gun and gives the other one a straight hit in the face. Opens the door to the stairs and hurries down. Goes down the two stores to get out of the window again but before he can opens the door, a guard at that floor takes a shot at him. Bond dives down the last few stairs and pushes the door close, making the arm of the guard stuck between the doors. Hits the hand with his gun till the gun is dropped and he kicks it away. Opens door and hits the guard in the face but gets immediately get bullets past his head by other guards.
Keeps running to gets to ground level, shoots every time a door opens with a guard showing up. Reaches ground floor and rolls in, finishes roll and keeps on knees, aiming with gun, but no guards show up. Puts gun back, pulls clothes better and grins. Confidently walks to the exit and grabs ring to break the glass doors. Suddenly gets a blow against his head and falls down. Feels a heavy weight on his back. It presses him to the ground, feels hands around his throat. Can’t move away. His arms are free so he activates the wrong and throws it to his aggressor hoping to hit him somewhere, the weight shifts so he gets time to turn around so that he is now face to face with the person. Doesn’t waist time and gives three hard punches in the face. The hands gets off his throat and Bond swings his hips in the air and manages to wrap his lets around the neck of the other and bangs him down on the floor. Bond stands up and readies himself for round 2. But gets legs swiped away by the attacker. That person holds his hand to his nose and looks at it, sees he’s bleeding. Looks angry at Bond and takes a knife out of his inner pocket. Tries to hit Bond with it, he evades the attacks and manages to kick against the hand that holds the knife but the aggressor doesn’t let it go and even manages to drive Bond against a wall. Gives a hard punch in Bonds stomach and places the knife against the throat of Bond.
[“Hope I get a raise for this.”
But the next moment the person falls down, dead. Into view comes Vanderstock with a smoking gun with a silencer. Bond takes a deep breath.
“No, you got a wage-drop…”
“Bond, did you got the files?” –“All safe and sound, how did you got in here?” –“Backdoor, they always forget to lock those over here…” “Good you know your country by now… Lets get
out of here, we have to send the files to London.”
