So i was talking with my bro and he brought up an interesting point.
What if Ozpin had the Old Man's powers, and he died right when Ruby saw Pyrrha died? It would explain how Ruby got the power; Ozpin was thinking of Ruby in his final moments, and thus transferred the power to her. This doubly makes sense since she did the whole eye wings thing that Cinder did when she got the Fall Maiden's powers, as well as it being a LOT bigger (as it was a lot more power).
Bonus points when combined with a time travel theory, and it was a future Ozpin that died when he came back in time at some point to save someone. This would mean that Ozpin can both be alive for the story and dead for the current time at once.
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeActually, I think Ozpin managed to make Cinder run the fuck away, but now he's MIA.
Because seriously. There's no way he can be dead right now because it was off-screen, and the creators have said multiple times that his Semblance is OP as balls.
Or Qrow's being completely serious about the story being unrelated to the Season Maidens.

... Oh dear god.

Well, Ozpin seems to have been continuously shown to wait to act. Hell, he only decided to get out of his tower when the Grimm started attacking, instead of before. If his Semblance is as powerful as it's continuously implied to be.... yeah, him not using it to fight Cinder is highly likely.

ok, after seen fasoman undine avatar I really want to see Phyrra vs Cinder with "battle against a true hero" in the background, now where can megalovania go.....
Maybe Ozpin semblence have a draw? something that make him use it unlikey.
"My Name is Bolt, Bolt Crank and I dont care if you believe or not"Semblance or not, Ozpin was handing his ground Cinder and then some. So I don't think Ozpin lost a straight fight, but disabled or sealed off in some way.
Given the stakes would that matter to him?

@Unknowing Oh i originally would have used a Pyrrha picture, but i will get sad so i instead chose Undyne.
@Ozpin I still want to know if he either Threw the fight and "let himself be defeated" or he was really defeated
Also, after getting the maiden's power, what was Cinder going to do? I want to know what Pyrrha stopped by getting herself killed

Uni catHmm. I saw something on Tumblr which I can't find now, but they pointed out an interesting detail.
When Pyrrha asks Cinder if she believes in destiny, when it cuts back to Cinder, she appears to almost have tears in her eyes? Could be an animation glitch possibly, but I don't know. Perhaps we don't know Cinder's whole story?
Me and my friend's collaborative webcomic: Forged Men![]()
Tears? I think it was distase, as Phyrra kept loyal to Ozpin in the end and defies her, the intersting is that Cinder BELIVES in destiny....hmmmmmm.
Also, Cinder chararter is of course, Cinderella and the dance episode is pretty much her going undercover to a party, so that part is cover already.

"My Name is Bolt, Bolt Crank and I dont care if you believe or not"Ozpin is pulling a GDI gambit.
IE has given Salem and Cinder the allusion that His forces are weak and ripe for the plundering.
However As Cinder and Salem spread themselves thin... only to realizes Ozpin's run off to make sure that when the Cavalry arrives... It will completely crush Salem's plans once and for all
IE GDI bent over for Nod to lure Kane into a false sense of security and when GDI struck back.. Nod was losing so hard by the time Kane realized how screwed he was... He was effectively surrounded on all sides
Praise be to the absolute QueenIf RWBY killed C Inder I think she'd have to be the new Fall Maiden, which there's no evidence of.
The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.Honestly, a bridge-drop is probably the least horrible way Cinder could die. Because I have a feeling she's going to meet her end very messily.

That was from a weird glove-thingy
