WordSong looks around at the room they're in, with the many dopplegangers. Her eyebrows crease as she takes in her own doppleganger, slightly taller than herself.

WordSong hears Magestic Mary say, "Well, we obviously found the topping lair. So what now?"

What's the toping lair? she wonders.

A second later, the dopplegangers say, "TOP" and Feline Fantasy is carried up to them by the Admins. Oh, like when you TOP a post! 

Agent Winter has been concentrating for a time, with her eyes closed. Suddenly, her eyes fly open. "Guys!" she says.

"What?" Luminescence asks. 

"I just remembered something! On the pieces of paper, it said the toppers would get us out of here. But . . ." She hesitates. "I'm not sure how."

"For all we know, they don't speak english," WordSong sighs. 

"Well, there's only one way to find out," Arithmancy says.

"Arithmancy@FF, age WHATTT???, found the off switch." The sky glowed.

"The off switch? What is she talking about?" Mary asked, but she didn't have enough time to ponder it, for her TOPpelganger (that's what I'm calling them) pointed at her and proclaimed, "TOP!" The admin-spirits appeared and picked her up, then flew away from the topping lair. Mary saw the other CBers looking up at her, terrified, but Mary thought it was very cool to be flying. She enjoyed the cool breeze that picked up her hair as she flew through the air, and breathed in the humidity - it felt like it was about to rain. She closed her eyes and was filled with a happy sensation, until - 

"OOF!" Mary cried. She had fallen on her butt in the middle of a field - it was bright and sunny outside, and different areas of the field were filled with different things. Far away was a bright green forest, and nearby it was a circus tent, and a little ways from that was a giant outdoor art gallery. Down to Earth, Chirp at Cricket, and Pudding's Place! She thought, but her thoughts were interuppted by another loud, "OOF!" She glanced over and saw Quill stand up and brush herself off. 

"Quill!" Mary cried. 

"Majestic Mary!" Quill replied excitedly. Mary was about to tell Quill about her discovery when another body fell from the sky. 

"Ow! What the heck?" Agent Winter said, standing up. All of a sudden, it started raining bodies. 

Indigo Feather, Peregrine, Luminescence, Strawberri, Quill, Sirin, Arithmancy, Feline Fantasy, WordSong, and Hummingbird tumbled to the ground, then stood up and looked around, confused. 

"We've all been topped!" Mary explained. "And now we're in the active CB!" Mary told them about all the CB realms that she had figured out. 

"But now that we're here, what do we do?" Peregrine asked. 

"I should've hit the off switch," Ari proclaimed. None of the CBers knew what she was talking about, but before they could express their confusion, it started to pour.

Arithmancy flies away, bored of human contact. Maybe she will look for the Inkwell.

Noticing that it's getting dark and they are probably falling back to the back pages some CBers yell, "TOP!"

TOPSOng, WordSong's doppleganger, notices that the round robin thread where this started is falling to the bottom. "TOP!" she yells, along with a few other dopplegangers.

"Wet," Luminescence observed needlessly in disgust, holding up her cloak which was soaked through with fresh rain. "Okay... so, now that we've all been topped, whatdo we do next?" Mary asked, steering the conversation back on track. "Has anyone memorized the note?" Heroes suggested. "No, but Peregrine still has our copy, right?" Luminescence told them, looking at Peregrine. "Do I?" Peregrine looked surprised. As she felt around her cloak, (which was also soaked) she said, "Ew!" 

"What happened?" WordSong asked anxiously. "Nothing. It's just... the note is soggy." Win made a face. "Well, what does it say?" Feline Fantasy asked, before they could keep discussing the grossness of soggy paper. Hummingbird leaned over Peregrine's shoulder to see what it said. When she looked up at them, her face was wearing a confused look. "It doesn't give further instructions." Quill frowned. "Are you sure? Or are they just not legible, because the ink ran or whatever?" she asked. Humming nodded. "Very sure."

"Um... Helper? Another note would be very helpful!" Luminescence called. The rest of the CBers looked at her funny. "What? Thought I'd try it out. @TheHelper, age weneedhelp, it's the CBers!" she called again. "Okay then," WordSong said, laughter in her voice. Luminescence shrugged, her cheeks flushing slightly. 

Suddenly, a crack opened in the ground. Out galloped a herd of silver horses. "Wha-?" Mary gasped. Everyone else's jaw dropped. Soon they were gone, only leaving behind traces of silver dust. "Wow. Glad I wasn't standing right there," Heroes shuddered, pointing at the giant crack in the horses' wake. "Yeah..." AW agreed. 

Just as they started to relax again, the ground rumbled. They all jumped as the crack widened and a lone golden horse thundered out of it. "What is going on here?" FF asked, a little faintly, as the ground closed up and looked as though nothing had ever happened. Then there was a deep rumble in the ground. "Oh no. It's not going to open up again, is it?" Peregrine groaned. "No, I don't think-" Quill started. The herd of silver horses, with the golden one at its head were galloping full speed towards the CBers.

"Get down!" Hummingbird yelled as they all dived out of the way.
