Cassette shifting Problem [Solved]

From the sounds of it, you will want to check the limit screw first and the B screw second.
Unscrew the low limit screw all the way and try to ascend the gears. That will tell you if it's the limit screw. When you get into the top gear, you will want to screw it back in until it's snug tension with the hammer inside. That should set the limit screw properly.
Try the same for the B screw, and unscrew it as much as possible until there's just little left. Then check the gears.
Before you do all this, you might want to adjust the cable tension. Undo the cable, dial the barrel adjuster all the way in on the rear derailleur. Then lightly pull the cable just to remove the most absolute basic slack from the line, and re-fasten the cable to the bolt. Begin to dial the adjuster out little by little and shift up to check the indexing.Keep doing this until you can ascend all the way and back down with no issues.
Report back and let me know the update.
