And here's part three:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It's early evening. Bond comes into MI6. Moneypenny greets him.

Moneypenny: Enjoyed the theatre, James?
Bond: Yes. It was a very stimulating piece.

She then takes him through to the Situation Room, where M, Tanner and Robinson are. Tanner explains that they have been looking for the identity of the woman Bond encountered in the Swiss Alps, but for the last two days their search has been fruitless. Now they have discovered something.

Tanner: That's why we couldn't find her. She's on no criminal record anywhere. However, we did find her in the newspaper.
Bond: Under what? Personals?

Tanner smiles. M is not amused. She presses a button and a holographic projection of a newspaper pops up. There is a picture of Raven on it, dressed as a mix of a goth and a pop singer.

M: 'The Raven'. Singer. Dancer. All-around artiste.
Bond: Mmm... A girl with many talents.
Moneypenny: I'm sure you speak from experience.
Bond: (mock consternation) Moneypenny! You of all people should know I never mix business with pleasure.
Moneypenny: (under her breath) Oh, I do.
M: (interrupting) She performs tomorrow at the DiVicenzo Charity Ball in Rome.

She presses another button. An image of the Coliseum pops up.

M: It's been hired by EcoCorp, the company that has organised the ball. A publicity stunt, no doubt.
Bond: EcoCorp?
Tanner: Worldwide giant of food production. Ties to several third world governments. The CEO is British, a philantropist called Alistair Harmsway.
Bond: What do we know of him?

M sighs.

M: Contrary to what you may believe, 007, the world is not filled with megalomaniacs who can hollow out volcanoes, stock them with big-breasted women, and threaten the world with nuclear annihilation. You are going to Rome to investigate The Raven, no-one else. Understood?
Bond: Perfectly.
Robinson: You'll be going undercover as Sean Harris, a producer of rock music.

Bond flinches. Rock isn't his music of choice.

M: Watch her closely, 007.

Bond nods and heads for the door.

M: But not too closely.

In part 4: Q Branch.

[DanMan]

Your story is awesome. When will you post part 4? Cant wait.

[SamuelKevlar]

Thanks for the praise!

I'm about halfway through the Q scene. It's a little difficult to come up with original gadgets, but I'll get there eventually.

[SamuelKevlar]

Just saw DAD today.

I'm a bit miffed that they used two of the ideas I had for TIME IS THE ENEMY.

1. The bio-dome.
2. The finale on a big airplane.

But oh well, I'll just use these things anyway. It's not as if MGM is going to sue me for it...

An excellent piece that really captures that sometime elusive Bond flavour. Looking forwards to the next part. BTW, did you find someone to do the art? If not, i'd be happy to try, but i won't vouch for it's quality.

[SamuelKevlar]

Oh please, please, yes!

My own art-skills haven't progressed past stick-figure level.

If you want to do art for my story, get in touch with me through e-mail. I'll tell you what my ideas are with posters and such-like.

[Sigma]

Here's something that i managed to cook up, what do you think?

[SamuelKevlar]

That's great. I like it that you used the tagline I made up. And "Time Will Kill", just fantastic.

BTW, who's that woman in the watch? Is it Rachel Weisz? I don't recognise her.

[SamuelKevlar]

This little piece should come between the title sequence and the scene with Bond and Marina.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

A shot of Paris, France, at night. The image is dominated by a high-rise, in which is situated the National Bank of France. Raven, now in tight-fitting leather, breaks in. She quickly moves up to the highest floor, where a door sign says

[SamuelKevlar]

And here's part 4. Q-Branch. Finally finished. Tell me what you think of it. I wanted to see the old Q one more time, while acknowledging that by 2002 he had been replaced by Cleese-Q. Of course, in reality this scene would be impossible, as Desmond has died.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bond enters Q Branch. Several people are installing a large video-conference screen on the wall. It is shaped like an eye, with

[DanMan]

WOW!!! Well worth the wait. It felt just like a real movie. Nice homage to Desmond. I'll be looking foward to the next part. Keep up the good work!

[Sigma]

Thanks very much. Yes, it's Rachel Weiz in the watch. I'm working on a proper poster for Time is the enemy. I'll put it up when its done.

[SamuelKevlar]

For everyone waiting for the next part of Time Is The Enemy.

I'm busy with some other projects at the moment, so it's a bit delayed. Don't worry though, Bond is always in the back of my mind, waiting to show himself again.

[DanMan]

Take your time Samuel Kelvar. (Hurry up!), LOL

[SamuelKevlar]

It's been a long time since I posted anything on the thread that got me started here at CBn. But with this new (well, fairly new) Fan Fiction forum that allows us to post our complete works, I've decided to start work again on my Bond screenplay.

I have changed some things, some ideas, for the better, I think. I'll put up a thread on the other Fiction board soon, but first there are some areas in which I would appreciate input from the CBn community.

+The title. It used to be 'Time Is The Enemy', but I pinched that of someone else and I feel bad about using it. Some other suggestions I have listed here. They all have to do with time and life, the main themes of the script. Of course, feel free to post suggestions of your own.
-LifeTaker.
-Time Is Timeless.
-TimeKiller.
-Cradle Of Death.
-Only Time Will Kill.
-Edge Of Time.
-Killing Time.
-Brink Of Time.

+Casting. I have pretty firm ideas for the main characters, but next to no idea for the smaller roles.
Rene Mathis-A shifty French banker.
Ruby Valentine-British actress and squeeze-on-the-side for Bond.
Tears-A young, androgynous thug with a vicious scar under his right eye.
Sarah Lovsitt-Rich American. Could be a cameo like Madonna in DAD.
Michael Horning-A computer nerd trying to escape his boss, Harmsway.

+I have nobody to do the art. Of course, this is something completely voluntary and I wouldn't expect someone to offer to do it until I have posted a significant portion of the script.

+Director. I'm torn between Philip Noyce and Jon Amiel.

And to finish off, here's a bit of a teaser:

Title: 'NoName'

MI6

James Bond: Pierce Brosnan
M

[Mister Asterix]

Seems like I suggested that one for something else a long time ago.
