What either Cinder's sembalance or a very unique dust ability that allows her to "take what power a person has away from them" and then use it herself? So with Pyrrha, Cinder activates that ability, Pyrrha's sword and shield are cast aside, her armour might be crumpled in around her to form a sort of cage, and all the while Pyrrha would be absolutely helpless to stop it or anything else Cinder does with Polarity. From there could come three outcomes. One, Pyrrha is simply killed right there and then. Two, Pyrrha is kept a prisoner, tormented constantly, and told she could have her sembalence back if she joined Cinder. Or three, Janue comes in right then and all on his own is able to prevent Cinder from pursuing options one or two. From three, Janue finally becomes fully confindent fighting on his own, his relationship with Pyrrha deepens, and Pyrrha then is forever scared by either permanently losing her sembalence or developing a phobia of losing her sembalence again. Of course, an encounter like that between Cinder and Pyrrha would probably not happen at the tournament since it would broadcast Cinder's powers too much. Of course, a tournament battle could have happenned before the encounter. In the tournament, Cinder would use her ability more discretly and win so that everyone would think Pyrrha just had a bummer match and Pyrrha would not know what had happenned until the second encounter.
