Here's a thought: I think that Ruby's outburst at the top of the tower wasn't a 'power', per se, in terms of being part of her special power-set. Seeing Pyrrha die simply unbound it and unleashed a tidal wave of what I an only describe as 'white aura'. Being pure positive energy, it nulled the Dragon's dark aura energy (the thing that makes the Grimm appear alive when they're just golem-like constructs really) and turned it into stone.

What it might have done to Cinder, RT are rightly keeping secret. It might have petrified her too or, and this is an interesting possibility, it may have purged her of her evil nature. It's possible that the Fall Maiden is wanderinging around, trying to find some kind of shelter whilst fighting a strong urge to kill herself because of all the evil she'd done before Ruby's outburst opened her eyes.

It might be very, very interesting to see how a forcibly-turned Cinder might behave, especially around those whom she corrupted like Emerald.
