Hi!!! Thank you so much for the reviews. Now to talk about some.

Dark Moon Crystales: Don't worry I really appreciate the critism. This story is based on

Stanley Kurbick's version of the Shining. I am currently reading

the novel. I should have read it before starting but I was

eagar to get my ideas down. As for the humor? Too bad.

It will probably get more serious later and the rating

may change. Please keep reading and review

Kon-hoshi: Thanks so much. I'll definitely read your second story!

Jessail: Thanks Nickel.

Chibi-Kat-316: Thanks! Mind if I use that joke?

zeldaisthebeast: Thank you. I think I'll continue.

Now to start.

Chapter 2: Closing Day

That night Ness couldn't sleep. When the other Smashers had finally all fallen asleep he decided to talk to Tony. Tony was the spirit that lived inside him. He never spoke to him during the day because people would think he's even more insane. Why was Tony there? He wasn't sure. He didn't write the Shining. "You sent me that image didn't you." he asked sounding upset.

"Yes" said Tony moving Ness's finger up and down. (I never got why he does that.)

"Man that was so freakin COOL! Show me more! I could make a movie about this!" Ness cried.

"You idiot I'm trying to warn you!" Tony yelled.

"About what?"

"About the hotel!"

"What hotel?"

"The Overlook hotel!"

"oh yeah... that makes sense..."

"YA THINK!?"

"So what's there that you're trying to warn me about it?" Ness inquired. Just as Tony was about to tell him he heard footsteps in the hall. Ness pretended to sleep. Zelda poked her head into the room.

"Ness...are you ok?" she asked. Ness didn't answer. She figured he had a nightmare and left.

"Listen..." said Tony quietly "there's something evil there. Please don't go. We'll both regret it."

"No...we gotta go."

"Why?"

"Because this story wouldn't be fun if I stayed here." said Ness. "Listen I gotta get some sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

The next morning everyone got up early and left taking separate cars. Ness was in a car with Link, Zelda, and Young Link. There wasn't much happening. Outside there was only trees. Young Link seemed to be having a good time though. "Ok" said Young Link looking out the window. "I spy with my little eye something green."

"Is it a tree?" Ness grumbled.

"Yes!" he said looking out the window. "Ok this one's harder. I spy with my little eye something green."

"A tree?"

"Yep! I spy with my little eye something-"

"OH MY GOD! IT'S A FRECKIN TREE!" screamed Big Link trying not to let go of the wheel and strangle his younger self.

"Yeah! How did ya guess?" asked Y.Link. He sighed. Was he really this stupid as a kid?

"I'm hungry" whined Ness "Are we there yet?"

"Yeah, Ness we're there. The hotel was always in the middle of a road." said Link.

"Really?" asked Ness as he and Y.Link looked out the window to find it.

"So Link, you're gonna work on your novel while here right?" Zelda asked.

"Yeah...it's so quiet there. It's probably a good place to work." Link replied. He and Zelda talked a little longer while Y. Link and Ness still tried to find the hotel. Soon they saw it in the distance. "Thank Din! We're here!" Link said pulling into the parking lot. The other Smashers and the owner were already waiting for him.

"Mr. Ullman these are my friends the Smashers!" said Link. Mr.Ullman looked shocked.

"HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME!? I NEVER TOLD YOU THAT!" he screamed pointing at Link.

"You're wearing a nametag sir..." Link replied motioning to the nametag that said 'Hi I'm Mr. Ullman' on it with a simile face.

"Oh...um... let me show you around." he said walking to the hotel with everyone following him. He stopped in front of a hedge maze. "This is the gaint hedge maze we have for really no reason at all...but it looks cool right?" asked Mr. Ullman. Everyone except Ness murmured in agreement.

"I think you should have giant hedge animals instead..." said Ness.

"Yeah!" said Roy. "Animals are cooler!"

"Shut up! I didn't ask you! Oh wait I did...well your opinions are not valued here!" cried Mr.Ullman. "Now let's move on..." Everyone started walking up to the hotel. When they walked in they were shown around the lobby.

"This is the lobby where we make people wait hours to get in. When they finally do get in we tell them there's no more room and then laugh at them later. It's sooo fun. Anyway over here is the game room-"

"OH MY GOD A GAMEROOM" cried Y.Link "THEY HAVE DARTS!!! NESS, POPO, NANA LET'S PLAY!!!" He ran into the room.

"Fine," said Link. "We'll get ya later." Everyone exept Ness and Y.Link left.

"Hey where are the ice climbers?" asked Ness looking around. Soon they came into the room. Ness turned around to greet them but stopped. They looked sort of rigid and dazed. They turned around and left together. "Um...Y.Link did you see that?" asked Ness curiously. Y.Link was to busy throwing darts.

"See what?" he asked throwing and darts and missing. They stayed a little longer until Y.Link gave up. "Screw it" he said taking them off the board. Just then a bunch a needles hit the dartboard. They turned around to see Shiek/Zelda standing there.

"Link told me to get you guys, come on." he/she said.

Meanwhile Mr. Ullman was showing them the Golden Ballroom after visiting the snow machine.

"We can have a party in here!" Samus commented looking around. Mr.Ullman laughed.

"There's no booze so HAH!" Everyone turned to Roy.

"I don't drink." he said stiffly.

"Uh huh I don't care." said Mr.Ullman when Zelda (back in Zelda form) arrived. "Ok why don't some of you check out the kitchen. Hey Dick!" he yelled as a man walked in. Roy burst out laughing.

"His name is Dick!" (thanks Chibi-Kat-316) He yelled howling with laughing.

"Shut up! I'll show the kitchen to anyone except him" said Dick pointing to Roy. Marth and Zelda volunteered. "And how about you Ness?"

"How do you know my name?" Ness asked curiously.

"Must have heard someone call ya that before..." he replied. Ness was about to question further but was interrupted by Marth.

"Let's go." Dick nodded and motioned for them to follow. When they got there Dick showed them the cooking materials, the freezer and then the storage closet. As he showed them the food Ness stood rather bored when he heard a voice in his head. You like ice cream Ness? It was Dick's voice. He must have physic powers too. thought Ness nervously. When they left Dick asked Marth and Zelda if he could borrow Ness a minute. They walked into the kitchen and Dick gave Ness some ice-cream.

"Listen Ness. What I'm about to tell you will change your life." he paused and sighed. "You have physic powers."

"Yeah I know I've got PS1"

"Besides that, you also have the shining."

"Which are physic powers like PS1 right?"

"Um...yeah." said Dick

Meanwhile on the way to their next destination Link had some questions for Mr. Ullman. "Sir? Why isn't there any booze here?"

"Well the last caretaker brought up some alcohol, got drunk, had a hangover and killed his two daughters and his wife with an ax and then blows himself up with a shotgun! What was his name...Ah yes it was Grady! Delbert Grady...they say spirits still haunt this hotel..."

"Who's they?"

"I don't know...anyway most people wouldn't apply for the job after that so I was outta luck till you came along! Lucky you huh?"

"um...yeah..." said Link. That officious little prick! He should told that me that before I took the job! Wait...where did I learn such big words.... he thought as he and the Smashers followed Mr. Ullman

"Ok so Watson will show you the boiler room Link while I show the others their bedrooms. Put some rattraps down there ok? I HATE RATS!!!!" he screamed louldly causing the others to back up against the wall.

Meanwhile Ness was very confused

"So how's the Shining any different from PS1?" he asked.

"Well...um you can see ghosts...and stuff..."

"But I can do that already!"

"Shut up! Now listen and listen good. The spirits in this hotel want your power! They'll most likely use your friends to get to ya. They'll most likely go for the one with the weakest power first. They'll take over thier bodies and minds when they find an oportunity to." said Dick. Ness was now worried. The ice climbers don't have magic...have they been affected already? Ness wondered Nah...maybe this guy is insane. Then again prehaps this is what Tony was trying to warn me about?

"How can you free them? Ness asked.

"If their bodies become too weak they'll leave. So you got to beat them with PS1 but not kill them. Understand?" Ness nodded. "If everything become to hard to handle call me."

"And you'll do what..."

"Um...shut up! I gotta go now. Go catch up with the others."

A/N Yayness! I hope you liked it. I tried to tie everything in and set it up without being to serious.
