It's either Penny gets owned physically or Pyrrha gets owned mentally. Or maybe Pyrrha might do something absolutely drastic, like slamming people into walls. Her mental stability has been deteriorating over the past few episodes. If she "kills" Penny, particularly in a gruesome way (no matter her artificial nature) or injure her (due to her aura not covering being puppeteered from inside your own body), she'll be booed out like Yang was and the thought of failure as well as wounding/killing a peppy, innocent soul will break her mind. And if it doesn't, she still has an aura transfer to do, and that will probably be affected by how stable she is. I  noticed something interesting during the scene with Jaune and Pyrrha which was real sweet until you know she slammed him into a pillar. We all noticed how fall leaves kept appearing in front of her like a big 'you should feel sad' from the universe. However did anyone notice that after Jaune started talking and comforting her both leaves just seemed to float away. I don't know if it was forshadowing of things to come or just interesting symbolism but I do have a theory. Everyone is worried that Pyrrha will just be gone after the transfer, which will be freaking terrible in my opinion. What if instead Amber and Pyrrha kind of just meld, I mean the Maiden's are already kind of Avatar like, why not have a Korra/Aang situation going on? Another part of my theory is maybe Jaune kind of makes the transfer easier on her or keeps her sane. However all in all I am not totally sure that Pyrrha will even become the next maiden, so we will have to wait and see. My last statement is I will be beyond sad if Penny dies/horribly injured.

We did consider her melding with Amber actually. My guess is that if that even if that happened, it would still mess with her mentally, having two people in her head. If Amber takes over her mind and body, it could problems with Jaune having to deal with his own feelings for Pyrrha and her existing in appearence only, but having Amber's mind, who doesn't know him.
