Seth and Bryce entered the stairwell well behind the others. The early afternoon sun streamed in through the windows and cast the stairwell with a bluish light. Seth had a somewhat dazed expression. As they trudged up the stairs, he breathed more heavily than seemed normal.
Bryce- "Hey, we can take as long as we need to get up there, y'know."
Seth- "Yeah..."
He dropped Bryce's hand and took a moment to stand, dropping his head back to get more air. He gave Bryce a strange look.
Bryce- "Hey... Hey."
Seth's eyes rolled back a bit, as he tried to lean on the wall, and missed. He slumped against the wall, and began to fall backwards as if he was going to tumble down the stairs.
Bryce spun around to intercept him, and tried to hold onto his back. He began to fall with Seth's dead weight pushing against him. He lost his footing, and fell backwards on the stairs.
He broke Seth's fall and they only slid back two steps. Seth was completely unconscious and limp, lying on top of the smaller man. Bryce's lungs were empty of air, his eyes wheeled in their sockets. Finally, breath came back to him and he called for help.
Bryce- "HELP!! HELP!"
(Note, the PCs are not in earshot! )

Chou was the first to arrive, bounding down the stairs with his long legs. He stopped short of Bryce, and barked once. Chou- "ARF!"
Bryce- "Quick Lassie, get Dr. Bebe! *wheeze*"
Chou- "*whine*"
There were heavy footsteps descending the stairs, and then a Beau appeared. Beau- "Oh no, what 'appens?!" He quickly knelt to check Seth for a pulse.
Bryce- "He *wheeze* collapsed! Gotta-- doctor.. first floor."
Beau- "He is alive... I will move 'eem very carefully."
Beau knelt on the stairs, and indeed, carefully pulled Seth off of Bryce, cradling his upper body to keep his head from lolling, in case of spinal injury. Bryce tried to move a little bit, but grunted in pain.
Bryce- "OH that hurts!"
Beau- "Where do you 'urt? Perhaps you break a bone." He gestured vaguely at his midriff, then managed to successfully sit up on his butt. Beau- "The first floor? I will take the Seth. Please do not move, if you will 'urt yourself." Beau lifted Seth somewhat easily, like he was an unwieldy sleeping bag, and moved cautiously down the stairs. Chou stayed behind with Bryce, looking him with big brown doggy eyes. Bryce- "*wheeze* You're all right, Lassie. " He clumsily followed, holding his torso in pain.Moving to Zaitun -- Bebe's clinic

Who hangs out in a stairwell?
THIS AREA IS EMPTY.

The door burst open with a cackling cry. Ab-Dhur Voice of Hate- "REE HEE HEE HEE! GO FORTH FRIENDS! FUCK SHIT UP!! WOOOOO!"
She clambered up the stairs like a sick mockery of human locomotion, and a horde of zombies followed. Corpses- "GLURGH GLURP RRRRSSRR."

Further up the stairs, a large group trudged to the top, where they found Davin, Del & Woody talking to a panicked Sandy. Sandy- "I don't think it's safe up here, but I don't know what to do! We're trying to put everyone in Marie's room, but do you think that's a good idea?"
Davin- "Since there's no rooms without windows, that's as good as we can do, for now. Let's go down and get people from the fifth up here. I'll go down to the fourth, bring up everyone to this stairwell."
Luke- "We're already on it, slowpoke."
The group heard a quiet sound echoing from further down the stairwell. What was it? "Ree hee hee hee" "Ree hee hee hee" Before they could process this, a white streak ran over their heads. Ab-Dhur Voice of Hate- "OUTTA THE WAY, SHITHEADS! REE HEE HEE HEE!"

Woody- "We gotta stop this! C'mon!"
Woody ran after the shrieking monster. Davin- "Oh for god's sake. People! Get into Marie's room!"
Luke- "Don't tell me what to do, Pony Boy."
Emmett- "Davin is right, c'mon, let's get people to safety!
Esi collared Eli, Emmett collared Luke and Del attempted to grab the girls, who ran off after Woody.
Esi- "God damn it, Del."
Del- "Geez, it's not my specialty! Don't give me shit. *sigh*"
The big herd ran into the fray despite Emmett and Davin's protest. Teddy- "Bunch of IDIOTS! You're doing this all wrong!" Colonel Teddy followed them, and no one tried to stop him.
"..."
Luke- "Who are you people?"

Davin ran into the north stairs, and was immediately aware of something horribly wrong. He ran down as far as the fifth floor landing, and saw a wall of zombies on its way up - too close to stop, to do anything. He had to choose: Get out on the fifth floor and bar the door, or go up to the sixth and do the same. Either way, he could only do one, and the other would get swarmed by zombies without warning...
Knowing the 6th floor people were already on high alert and in rooms with defensible doors, he opted to run out onto the fifth floor. Davin- "Just... Fuck you guys."

The zombies eventually collapsed for mysterious reasons. They were shoved to the sides of the top few floors, but not removed that night as people tried desperately to recover from the siege in other ways.
