And what will that accomplish?
We've been on a bit of a killing frenzy for the last bit but this raises an interesting option. Earlier before the manhunt got too severe I suggested maybe Oriko hadn't set the fire and was just there for some other reason.
This kind of suggests that maybe Oriko didn't set the fire at all, and came by to close the door to slow the fire down enough. Though that would itself raise a lot of questions on why she didn't prevent or put out the fire in the first place.
Getting an answer?

As opposed to getting one right on the spot?
After 3 more updates of cryptic answers and guess work. Sure....

You still haven't explain to us how bringing Oriko to Sayaka will in any way make Oriko spill the beans.
1) Dragging the heavily wounded Oriko to the hospital will be painful, implying more cryptic answers = more pain.
2) We literally did what Oriko asks, your move Oriko
3) Separates Oriko from Kirika
4) Abusing timestop so its really just a painful trip for Oriko's "benefit"
5) More grief marbles!
6) Sayaka can get involved, good or bad idk
7) We can take out that Witch, sure whatevs
8) We can get some painkillers and bloodpacks? Idk

It's possible that Oriko was trying to provoke Sayaka into making a contract, and in order for that to happen, Sayaka had to survive long enough for us to rescue her. Sayaka's already considering it for Kyousuke's sake. She just needs a little push like an apparently evil magical girl burning down her house. That or Oriko's just screwing with us or is trying to buy time.

Which only happens if we give it to her, because Homustop + we're controlling the conversation. Let's not allow her to wriggle out of this one.
Edit: Also, apparently I haven't voted yet.

This really shouldn't be a surprise. It's very possible Oriko never intended for anyone to die, and deliberately set things up that way. It's always been a possibility.
The real question is why she resorted to such risky and extreme measures in the first place. We need to force her, in no uncertain terms, to tell us exactly what "is to come" that could justify this behavior, and how any of this behavior is supposed to make the difference. Then we can go about proving her thoroughly wrong.
We need to press into Oriko that, A) speaking in riddles is OVER now, B) Her plans have been thoroughly wrecked, and even if they have not yet been, we're going to ensure that they are unless she convinces us to do otherwise, and C) if her precognition was perfect, she wouldn't have been torn to swiss cheese and had her head blown off--so putting a bunch of lives in danger is something she has to justify without relying solely on 'my precognition told me so'.
We should also impress upon her that not only is her life on the line here, but so is Kirika's. If Oriko really cares about her, it's more leverage for us.
It also separates us from Mami and Kirika by a large distance, which could be a problem if timestop suddenly fails or is no longer a viable option to the situation. If Kirika witches out without us there to cleanse her gem or provide Oriko as reassurance, Mami is left there with a broken arm right in the middle of a witch barrier--formed from a magical girl whose powers were antimagic AoE. Not a good situation. It's also all unnecessary, and there's no point in resorting to crude torture so early on, when she might be fairly cooperative. She's only had the chance to give one answer so far, and she's already feeling like death.

That's kind of the thing. We already kind have something of a good idea as to why. Unless Firnagzen throws us a curve ball (He probably will), the thing that is coming is almost certainly Walmart Night, and all of this is part of some convoluted plan to save the city and maybe the rest of the world. As for why she though all this was all necessary... "hard (wo)man making hard decisions"? Or maybe the things she did has helped and was necessary, which is unlikely but you never know. We know that she has good intentions and that she can be reasoned with, which is why we haven't just murdered her yet. We're just doing this for confirmation and for two other reasons.
1.) We're trying to convince her to leave the fight to us and that all this cryptic cloak and dagger crap is unnecessary.
and assuming that succeeds...
2.) We're trying to save her ass from getting ganked by a very angry Homura. By telling her telling her story, it should show that she is not in fact a murderous psycho who's out get Madoka, but just another teenage girl who trying her best and is making a lot of terribad decisions. So, killing her isn't actually needed to keep Madoka safe.
