If Cinder IS dead, I think its safe to assume that her powers would go to one of two people.

1) Emerald, for obvious reasons. We see how close Emerald is to Cinder, and the friendship seems mutual. In fact, Emerald may be the only person Cinder likes (with the possible exception of Mercury).

2) Ruby, funnily enough. Cinder HATES Ruby. When you hate someone that much, they are bound to be constantly in your thoughts. If Cinder's last thought was along the lines of "I never got my revenge on that stupid brat Ruby," (she would probably be thinking of a slightly stronger word), then Ruby would inherit the powers, right?
