Don't worry, it's all fine.

I think they don't let Kira use her powers as much because it's too risky for her to do so. Either that, or she doesn't know if she can use her electricity while using her sword. She's still a young Kitsune, so there's more she'll have to learn, which is why Noshiko has been training her in swordfighting.

If her spirit controls her, I think it'll turn her into a Nogitsune. The spirit is going rogue, or in this case, dark, and is trying to kill anyone that stands in its way (The Scorpion Chimera, the dead Chimera found on Scott's table, and it almost killed Noshiko). In Teen Wolf, the Nogitsune was called the "dark Kitsune" and Theo, when he spoke to Stiles, said he came for the "Dark Kitsune" (and even mentioned Void Stiles, hinting that they were two different beings. I think he said "Nogitsune's gone, but Void Stiles isn't Anyway, enough about Stiles). It's why Noshiko went to the Skinwalkers for help. Either they would have been able to help Kira, or they would have saved her from becoming the thing she, and by extension, Kira, along with Scott and his pack worked so hard to defeat.

I've seen a bit of Naruto and the Shippuden series, so... Imagine Kira's Fox as the Nine-Tailed Fox. It has a good side (the side that Naruto was able to see/bring forth) and a bad side (Pre-Pein arc, where he tried to control Naruto). In Season 3, the Fox and Kira were balanced, which resulted in the Spirit being "good." After the Dread Doctors messed with it, it became "evil" and is killing people and trying to control Kira. Until Kira can reach a balance with it again, she's at risk of losing herself.

Season 5 has been a mixed bag for me. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I can't stand it. Lately, though, 5b does a good job at keeping me interested.
