Somebody has to

Tasha goes over the safest way to reach the sixty sixth floor unnoticed and you are confident you can. What you don’t understand is why she hasn’t tried herself. Clearly her excuse of protecting innocents is a fabrication.

You begin you climb. You are in top shape and the first twenty go by quickly. At thirty nine you hear a scream.

“Shit.”

You have a choice. Somebody is likely in trouble on the other side of the door. You can attempt to rescue them or continue with your mission knowing you’ve left someone to a horrible fate…
