Why is my step response going down instead of up?

I am trying to plot the step response of a 6th order ITAE system as part of a homework assignment. One of the criteria is to use a undamped natural frequency that is 2 times of one that i used in a previous part of the problem. When I plot the step response, the plot is going down, which seems off.
I am wondering if there is a problem with my code and am hoping somebody can point out my error. My code is segmented into part i), ii) and iii). Part iii) is where I deal with the 6th order ITAE.
Thanks in advance
% i) Calculate the undamped natural frequency and damping ratio required

%% Part iii) Computate the ITAE 6th-order coefficients & Eigenvalues.

I would focus on your equation for zeta on line 60. It is resulting in a negative value (negative damping=bad!) which gives unstable eigenvalues in the remainder of your code.
