Not even two minutes later you are on a direct phone line with him. "Professor Moriarty. To what do you need that is worth Doom gracing your presence?" He asks.

Professor Moriarty
Moriarty smiled. It seemed the rumors she had heard about the man were true... his own ego probably dwarfed her own. And it just so happened she knew exactly how to talk to someone like that.
"It is an honor and quite a pleasure, Doctor Doom. As I wish not to take more than what is necessary out of your no doubt precious time, I'll get straight to the point. As you no doubt know given your own standing in the community, I'm a woman of science. I have fairly extensive knowledge in various fields, chemistry, mathematics, astrophysics to name a few. But I also happen to be sorely lacking in certain other domains", she explained.
"...One of those domains, incidentally, would be magic. From what I understand, even a normal human with sufficient will, intellect and the determination to learn can acquire skills as magic-user, and as such, I would like to remedy my lack of knowledge in that area. I, unfortunately, do not personally know any actual magic user myself, though I have heard of a few. One among them being none other than you, Doctor, hence my call. I was wondering if, perhaps, you'd be willing to teach someone willing and capable of learning, or perhaps if you could point me in the right direction for another teacher. Naturally, I intend to make it worth your while either way, be it with a significant donation, or perhaps some form of assistance given my other skills and competences. What do you think, Doctor?" 8 in Social Skills (Persuade, Etiquette) to make my request of him, singing his praises as I do.

"That might be possible." He said. "Very well. If you are willing to come to Latveria, Doom will be willing to teach you."

"That is most pleasing news. Thank you very much, Doctor, I appreciate it a lot. I will be on the first flight", she promised. "I'll let you know when I make it."

"Very well. Doom will see you then." He said before hanging up.

Professor Moriarty
"Indeed", the redhead said, smiling to herself as she put away her own phone. "And perhaps Doom will also have some things to tell me regarding a certain 'Holmes'... who knows", she pondered. She then proceeded to acquire tickets for a plane trip to Latveria and made the necessary preparations. Meeting with the attorney could wait. 6 in Intelligence to prepare my trip to Latveria and get a ticket there ASAP.

Professor Moriarty
The professor then proceeded to ready her things and baggage for the trip, making preparations as needed, before heading over to the airport. She would get some sleep on the plane. 6 in Intelligence, and 3 in Agility to prepare my baggage. Will repeat until I'm ready.
When I do am ready, I'll take a taxi to head over to the airport.

Professor Moriarty
The redhead next went to validate her passport and ticket, before sitting down and waiting for her flight. 5 in Intelligence to take care of all the details.

You arrive at the airport...
and have to go through all the usual security checks as everyone else. (Leave all your weapons and such back in the states etc.)
The next day you arrive in Latveria with no problems.

(OOC: Oh yeah, when she made her baggages, she wouldn't have brought anything weapon-like.)
Professor Moriarty
The professor looked around as she arrived in the Latverian airport, wondering if Doom had sent someone to pick her up. 5 in Intelligence to look around for it.

You soon find a giant humanoid robot that catches you in an energy bubble before flying with you in tow to the castle.

"W-Whoa!?" the redhead let out, blinking at the sight. "...Hm. Not what I was expecting, but... it sure beats taking a taxi?" she said to herself as she was carried off so.

You are carried into the hanger bay of Castle Doom where the robot lets you off in the middle of the floor.
"Welcome to Doom's Castle Professor." Doom says. "Come, Doom will begin instructing you right away." He says gesturing for you to follow him. "Be warned. Doom does not take kindly to those who waste his time. If you are found lacking, Doom will wash his hands of you."
