All we know is that she went to confront M. Bison and she was never seen again...

It is said that the similitude of their fighting styles and ways of life allowed him to take over her body. How does that work? How was M. Bison suddenly taller and trimmer years later? What happened to the original bodies of the pair? We may never find out what happened to her.

Oh, oh, I remember reading about this in that book about the Street Fighter/Final Fight/etc. canon. Or something. It's also in Wikipedia.

Rose smashes her hand into Bison to try to transfer her energy into him and take him over, but Bison turns the tables and enters her body instead (because they're not just similar, they're two halves of the same soul). He stays inside of her while he forms a new body for himself, which he switches to in time for Street Fighter 2.

What happens to her after that isn't revealed, but I can't imagine her still being alive after that. Bison's original body is probably too damaged to use any more (dead) since there wouldn't be much sense for him to make a new, weaker body if he could just use his old stronger one.
