Ashley Fenton ran into the Notnef hotel with her best friend Oliver on her heels. "I thought school would never end today! I mean how much can they cram into our brains in one day?" Ashley said laughing at the end. "Well were in a big school. So apparently that means big homework. It's not that bad though." Ashley looked at Oliver with a surprised look. "Whatever you say, Olly."

Ashley and Oliver walked up to the front counter, while trying to avoid the usual front lobby crowd. "Hi Missy!" Ashley said in a loud sing song voice. Melissa who had not heard them come in sprang from her seat with fright. "Oh, Ashley I didn't see you come in." Melissa said trying to slow her heart beat down. "That's okay M-dog, no harm done. Any messages?" Ashley looked at Melissa with big blue eye's, that had an innocent look to them.

"Ashley, let's get something straight,"Melissa said in her boring adult voice, that Ashley always wondered if she made just so she could lecture her, "My name is Mrs.Melissa. Not Missy, Mis, or M-dog it's Mrs.Melissa. Now on with the business on hand, your father called. He says he will be home early tonight. So he promises to cook dinner. Now please, move aside there are some guest coming this way." "Thanks Mis Missy!" Ashley said as she and Oliver sped walked from the counter, snickering a little under their breath as Melissa called out her name speech again.

"So,"Oliver stated with a bored voice,"what do you wanna do?" Ashley leaned against the wall of the hallway they were in, and started to think. Oliver decided to lean on the wall next to her when, Ashley bolted up, knocking him over in the process. "I got it!",Ashley exclaimed, her blue eye's sparkling, " We can go check out the big party preparations in the Rose room." "What's the party for?" Oliver asked as Ashley helped him back on his feet. "Well it's this new tradition thing, my dad decided to start. You see it's going to be this, huge bash! With dancing and famous people and dinner and great music and bands. It will be great! But you see the design is supposedly top secret. Dad won't evan tell me. So instead of waiting for the unveiling next week why don't we go for a sneak peak?"Ashley finished her statement out of breath, so taking a few gulps of air she looked at Oliver with anxious eyes. "Sure. I'm game!" Oliver shouted as he took off running down the hall. "Oliver! The room's the other way!"Ashley shouted running to catch her friend.

A few directions later, both kids were walking down the hallway towards the Rose room's doors. Ashley was chattering incessantly, as she walked towards the door. Then, THUMP, she hit something and landed ungracefully on her backside. Looking up Ashley was greeted by one of the largest men she had ever seen. The man stared down at her with cold eyes, that made her internally shutter. "Uh... sorry sir." Ashley stuttered out finally. "Watch it kid." the man grunted at her, while hastily walking away. Oliver ran up to her and started to help her up, "Nice guy huh?" Ashley just shuttered and said, "Forget him let's go to the Room."

Finally they made it, as they walked up to the doors they were stopped by a shout from behind them. "Wait right there you two!" Ashley mumbled under her breath as she turned to see one of the many hotel employees, Peter Greson. "Hello Peter." Ashley said through gritted teeth. "Don't Hi, me young lady. I know your looking for a sneak peak of the party. And I'm here to stop that, for you see no one is getting in with me here. So I suggest you two go on your way" Peter gave them a stern look and pointed down the hall. "But-" Ashley tried to interject. "No, on your way, now.". Ashley sighed and said, "Fine." then she stormed off with Oliver at her side.

As they turned the corner Oliver stopped Ashley, "Ashley, why don't we use a secret weapon?" Ashley looked at him blankly, "What weapon?" "Come on Ash you know yourghost powers." Oliver said with a grin on his face. Ashley looked surprised at Oliver, he always seemed to think ghost powers would solve things. Ashley knew, though she would never admit it to Oliver, her powers weren't as great as they could be. Her dad/trainer was, well busy and the few lessons she had were basically just how to stop herself from phasing through the floor all the time. But then again with Oliver there so excited about seeing the party, he gave her puppy dog eye's she decided to agree. "Okay Olly what's the plan?"

"Well," Oliver said looking around, to see a dinning cart with a large table-like cloth, "How about a visit from a haunted dinning cart?" Ashley looked at the cart and gave a sly smile, then said, "Going ghost." Oliver watched with big eye's as two glowing rings formed around Ashley's body. One ring moving up and the other down, until Oliver stood face to face with a young ghost girl. Ashley stood before him with shocking white hair, bright green eyes, and a black jumpsuit engraved with the letters AP.

"Nice costume choice." Oliver said with a smile. "It's just like my dad's was when he started hunting ghosts and stuff." Ashley stated proudly. "Anyway ya ready?" Oliver asked with a devilish smile. "Always." Ashley replied going invisible. Ashley floated invisibly over to the cart she grabbed the handle bar and started pushing towards the hall.

As she turned the corner she could see Peter's face turn towards her with a curious look. She pushed the cart nerve rackinly slow, letting the wheels creak slowly as she did so. She could see fear rise in Peter's face as she came closer.

Finally she reached him, stopping the cart only a few inches from Peter's shivering body. Ashley floated in front of the cart, and with a quick "I'm sorry about this" under her breath, she became visible changing her features to look like a wet-your-pants scary ghost, while yelling and moaning like all those movie ghost's she had seen in her life. That was when Peter surprised her. He let out a yell so loud people outside the hotel stopped what they were doing to listen. 'Dang it your loud!' Ashley thought while her ears felt the pain of being in the front row of the yell.

Ashley, started to feel a funny thing nagging at her foot. Looking down she saw her foot slowly becoming human. Her powers were cutting out on her like they had so many times before. 'NO! NOT NOW!' She thought but, no matter how hard she tried couldn't control it, so she popped back to human.

But before she felt the effects of gravity she found herself slammed into something hard. It wasn't until about 5 seconds later she figured out she was caught on Peter's shoulder, he apparently ran fast enough to catch her in mid-air. With Peter screaming and her so disoriented, she didn't notice they were headed for the lobby.

--------------(Sam's point of view)

Sam walked into the hotel with her carry on bag slung over her shoulder, beside her was her friend Erika who was dragging her so called 'carry on bag.' Sam stopped walking, seeing that Erika had plopped in a lobby chair exhausted. "Erika, I told you when they say carry on, they don't mean pack everything you can carry before collapsing." Sam looked at Erika with a know it all smile. "Haha very funny. Since your so smart why don't you go ahead to our floor while I get the key from the desk. I'm sure you can carry the bag with ease." Erika said with a sarcastic smile before running off to the desk leaving Sam with the bags.

"Hey! Oh,.. Fine but wait till we leave! I'll have plenty of souvenirs to pack then!" Sam looked around to see her statement which had never touched Erika's ears had gained her a lot of unwanted attention from the guests. "Hi, everybody." she said while dragging the bags to the elevator.

As Sam reached the elevator, she heard a scream. She quickly spun around to look where it was coming from but was greeted by a shove into the elevator. She picked herself up from the elevator floor, but accidentally pushed the buttons in the process. She then saw this tall man screaming and running in a circle with a little blur on his shoulder. When all of a sudden the blur flew off the man's shoulder, and into the elevator, crashing into Sam.

Then Sam heard it, "ASHLEY MARIE!" She looked out the elevator doors to see, Danny Fenton in a suit no less, with a look that seemed to scream worry and anger at the same time. "Danny!" Sam shouted a little louder than she had tried to. "Sam!" Danny shouted as the elevator doors slid shut.
