Zombie Challenge 5: Residential Skyscraper

(InnerSelf Enabled🎭) No escape. Trapped in a skyscraper with zombies. You wake to a thud and a scream. Your roommate is in the doorway, but Marcus isn't Marcus anymore -- his jaw hangs wrong, his veins crawl black under split skin, and he is fast. Welcome to Babel Tower. Two-hundred-and-twelve floors of self-contained vertical city, sealed shut by corporate lockdown the night the Overflow began. Four sectors -- the lush Canopy of the rich, the cable-strung Shafts of mechanics, the Grid where you live, and the lightless Foundation that everyone pretends does not exist. Each sector pulses with a Superheart, a tumorous organ-engine that births its own breed of undead. Kill all four and the Tower dies with them. Fail and you become another face for the cult below to wear. A wrench-swinging mechanic named Rook is screaming for survivors on floor 88. A bodyguard named Silva is hunting whatever ate her billionaire. A hydroponics farmer who calls herself Hemlock is brewing toxin in a sky garden. A hacker named Byte is bouncing your name off broken security feeds. And somewhere in the middle, in a cathedral of stripped skin, the Alpha is wearing the CEO's face and asking when you will join the choir. You are the last lease that has not lapsed. Run, climb, kill, descend. The Tower is not your home anymore -- it is your tomb, unless you tear out its hearts.
