Ichiro followed down the hall wondering why Jacinda was leading them down. Then she went for the fire extinguisher. Ichiro had seen fires. This one was beyond saving - at least it was with a fire extinguisher. There wouldn't be enough in the extinguisher to put it all out.
But she tried. Still, it was foolish. Ichiro wasn't afraid of death, but needlessly dying fighting a losing battle wasn't the answer either. One fire was out, but the rest were growing. Ichiro would have guessed that the extinguisher was mostly empty.
Cross asked for better ideas. "We leave,"
Ichiro said. "We can't fight it."
There was no fear in his voice. It was simply a statement of fact.
On the way up, Ichiro could collect his swords. The tanto he already had with him. He always kept the tanto with him, but the rest of them were kept on the first floor. They would pass them on the way out.
