Ikari closed her eyes. What more could she do with her illusion? There was the old "why are you hitting yourself?" joke, but she had tired of that centuries ago. Instead, she came up with a better idea. She leaned in toward the Solas illusion, and kissed him. The action didn't mean much to her. She had kissed plenty of boys before. Usually a push off a cliff or a drowning followed, but those things aren't fun to do to illusions. She pulled back.

"Hold on a sec," she said, "it should be right around...ah, there it is!" She took the illusion's other hand, and they hopped slightly towards each other at the same time. Instead of landing on the ground like they should, they instead fell straight through it, although the ground didn't even exist.

Ikari was now standing in the front hall of a large mansion. The Solas illusion had vanished after they fell through the ground. The mansion was warmly decorated. A fire was even burning in a fireplace in the next room. However, its feeling of emptiness made it seem eerie. Ikari smiled. Home sweet home. She had even made this place herself. It had taken forever to find a suitable spot for the magic, but this was her private retreat. She could stay here as long as she wanted. Ikari stretched out her arms and legs, yawning. Maybe she would switch back to fox form in a little while.

Part of a story RP I did in a Gaia Online guild:
Robert read over the mission details, along with a folder which contained copies of the investigations. The collections building of EngeCo was Robert's primary destination. If anyone would have any sort of hidden documentation, it would be the place where trainers 'abandoned' their Pokemon in exchange for a cash sum. While the investigation covered everything that was legally done by the police on the company, no one seemed to have tried the illegal route: hacking.
Robert's late father worked as a white-collar hacker. That is to say, he was a hacker hired by software companies and security companies to find vulnerabilities in a system or program so that those security breeches could be fixed. However, it was also that same type of job for the police department that led to his father and mother's demise. His father's activities were traced by Team Orron after he had hacked into their database and gathered a roster of member names. They left him a nasty going away present: a car bomb.
Robert himself was a skilled hacker, taught by his father. Such a skill would prove to make or break what lay before him. With a mini laptop in his black backpack, his two Pokemon companions' Pokeballs attached to his belt along with one empty Pokeball, Robert picked up his hoverboard and went out into the dark of the night.
Robert stopped about a block away from the collections office. The building itself looked like a restored and modified warehouse, sitting out on a stretch by the Olivine City port. Robert went over and hid himself in the bushes overlooking the dock area.
"Here, get this shipment back to our Hoenn division. With this last group they should be ready for their grand opening next month. We'll load up the Pokemon you've brought us and inventory them." one of the men down at the docks spoke. Robert grinned as he listened in, unobserved. They were sending Pokemon from Johto to Hoenn and taking shipments from Hoenn. There was already talk of them expanding into Hoenn and Kanto, but that they'd send out Pokemon this far in advance?
Robert took out his laptop and hacker coder device from his backpack. Robert used the laptop to seek out any wireless hotspots. One of the hotspots he found was labeled 'EngeCo218'. It was a secured network, as he would have expected. Plunging in his coder device, Robert turned it on and activated it. The device went to work, tapping into the network and decoding out from it the password 'R1ch3ssX'. With the password displayed on the coder, Robert typed it in and tapped into the computer mainframe. Now he had to move fast. He had no idea how long it would be until someone discovered an extra computer on the server network.
