Special thanks to Ellen Allen Poe for the Deck the halls song and JT Wipf for the twitching idea

Day 30 in the Seal

"Deck the halls with gas-o-lina, falalalalalala,

Light a match and watch it gleam, falalalalala,

Watch the house burn to ashes, falalalalalala,

Aren't you glad you played with matches, falalalalalalala," Cassidy, Halinor, Yan Lin, Kadma, Nerissa, Air Yan Lin sang loudly.

Elyon was the only one sane.

However, she had developed a strange twitch whenever hearing the word 'crazy'.

Which, the insane former guardians said quite frequently.

"This is crazy!" Kadma exclaimed, floating on her back.

Elyon twitched.

"This isn't just crazy, it's WILD!!" Yan Lin corrected.

Again, Elyon twitched.

"It's not just wild, it's crazy wild," Nerissa stated, laughing.

Elyon twitched again, a little more wildly.

Cassidy took notice of the twitching Elyon and whispered to the others.

They all nodded eagerly and flew over to the young Queen.

"Hey, Elyon," Halinor began, smiling widely, "why are you twitching like that? You're not going crazy, are you?"

Elyon twitched a bit.

The former guardians grinned with glee.

Yeah, more insane fun.

"Hey, Elyon," Cassidy said, floating closer to the girl. "What do you think sounds better? Crazy CHYKN or Super Crazy CHYKN?"

Elyon twitched a bit more.

Air Yan Lin covered her mouth as Kadma and Yan Lin acted out a random skit.

"I suggest we go with Crazy CHYKN," Yan Lin stated.

Kadma shook her head. "What are you, nuts? Super Crazy CHYKN sounds way better."

"No, I'm not nuts. I'm crazy." Elyon began to twitch hard now, her eyelids twitching along with the rest of her body. "And what makes Super Crazy CHYKN sound better?"

"Because," Kadma reasoned, giving a goofy smile, "super makes everything sound better."

"But super is used so frequently. Why call ourselves Super Crazy CHYKN? Why not Bat Crazy CHYKN or PBJ Crazy CHYKN?"

"I don't mean to drive ya 'batty'," Cassidy interrupted, giggling hard, "but why call ourselves PBJ Crazy CHYKN? The last time I checked, no one in this crazy group has a name that starts with a P or B or even J."

"I could change that," Nerissa peeped up. "MY middle name starts with a P."

"As in Pen—" But before Cassidy could finish her statement, Elyon slapped her hand over Cassidy's mouth.

"STOP! Just stop! You're driving me crazy!" Elyon screamed, tugging at her hair.

The others smiled at each other and then began to laugh.

"Oh, oh! I have an idea!" Yan Lin peeped, rising her hand eagerly.

"Okay, then," Nerissa said, crossing her arms over her chest. "What is it?"

"We could play Frogger."

"Frogger?" Elyon repeated.

"I remember that game! Mrs. Webster made us play it! Cept it was called Killer Wink instead of Frogger," Cassidy chirped.

"Who cares? It's better than doing nothing!" Kadma exclaimed.

"Then everyone get in a circle," Air Yan Lin giggled.

Everyone soon oriented themselves into a loose circle.

"Now what?" Elyon asked.

"Now," Halinor smirked, "we pick the victim who will choose the Killer Frog."

Nerissa grinned and lifted her finger. "Ready . . ."

"Set . . ." Kadma giggled uncontrollably.

"PICK!!" everyone, minus Elyon, hollered, all pointing to one person . . . Elyon.

Elyon blinked in surprise, then sighed. "No fair," she grumbled as she got out of the circle and began making circles around the group. "Now what?"

"We close our eyes, then you tap someone on the head. That person is then the Killer Frog," Nerissa explained.

Elyon rolled her eyes and flew around the circle.

"Okay, I'm done."

Everyone opened their eyes.

"The Killer Frogger is among you," Cassidy sang in a sing-song voice.

Yan Lin's eyes darted back and forth.

Mira made brief eye contact with her, then shoot her eyes as quickly as she could.

The same thing occurred to the others.

Suddenly, Nerissa screamed. She grabbed her neck, made mock choking noise, and flopped over, playing dead.

Everyone giggled.

"The Killer Frogger strikes!" Cassidy howled in mock angst.

Halinor gave a little gasp. "Oh no! What are we ever to do?"

More giggles. Elyon rolled her eyes. Idiots.

The insane people cautiously looked around again. Suddenly Yan Lin croaked and flopped over, her tongue lopsided.

That action caused Nerissa to burst out laughing.

Which started a chain-reaction.

Oh brother.

Kadma suddenly shouted, "I know who it is! It's the altamere! She's the Frogger!"

"Actually," Elyon interrupted, "she's not."

"Frogger suicide!" Cassidy and Halinor exclaimed together.

Kadma, instead of throwing a fit, merely shrugged her shoulders. "Oh well. I dug up my own grave." She 'stabbed' herself with an invisible knife and gagged.

"Well then," Air Yan Lin said cautiously, "If Nerissa, Yan Lin, Kadma, and I aren't the Killer Frogger, then it must be Halinor or Cassidy!"

"Well," Cassidy said with a shrug. "I can tell you it's not me." She pointed at Halinor dramatically. "So it must be Halinor! She's the killer!"

Halinor laughed darkly and grinned. "Yes, yes it is I, the sweet and kind Halinor. But in secret, I am truly Mrs. Hide!"

"You are insane," Elyon said slowly.

"I shall get you, you villianious monster!" Cassidy exclaimed as she chased Halinor.

The former fire guardian laughed again and flew away, chuckling manically all the way.

"This will take awhile," Nerissa commented cheerfully.

"I hate you all," Elyon growled.

Everyone else giggled madly.
