Sorry for my bad English.
Stories based in OCs are not very popular around but this one is going quite well in the Faves and Followings. Well, compared to my OC based fic at least. I also did not thought that would have readers who would be in Unicorn's side in this history. I mean, she actually should not show disrespect against the professors but she had her reasons. If be acceptable or not, I will let the readers decide that.
At this point, Unicorn should have to get used to going in Glynda's office.
Since her first day in the academy, she showed a behavior unacceptable for a student. Many would think that after a while she would get herself expelled, especially because of she in Glynda's blacklist. Unicorn herself did not have the need to be curious about her stay in Beacon, not with her family pulling some strings.
As always, the girl put all her thoughts behind once she reaches the door of her last favorite teacher. With a deep sight, she knocked on the door and waited for an answer. She heard Glynda call her to enter and Unicorn opens the door. The first thing she notices is her teacher not sitting in the chair of her desk or looking in some papers as usual. Instead, she saw Glynda standing in front of her desk, doing absolutely nothing as if she was waiting for Unicorn so they could leave the office together.
-Follow me, Ms. Unicorn. -Glynda said leaving the office.
And Unicorn was right. Although did not know why Glynda just told her to went to where they were going now.
After walking by her professor's side among a silence that some people would uncomfortable, the girl and woman reach the destination, the combat arena. Unicorn was good in reading people's corporal language and with that, she could predict what people are thinking or will do. This helps a lot during her combats. Yet with the way her teacher was, all composed and showing little sign of emotions, not even Unicorn herself could guess what the blonde teacher was planning.
For this works, Glynda needs to make Unicorn feel like she cannot do everything by herself. Unicorn alongside Pyrrha and her teammate Ryan were a few of the students of the first year who did not lose a single match since the school began, and this contributed to Unicorn's arrogance.
Glynda needed to make Unicorn feel a bit of the taste of the defeat but she could not merely call a student to fight Unicorn out of the class time. She could wait until the next day and call Unicorn to fight but would be just another simple class for the rebellious student, and in the end, she would ignore her teacher's lesson. Glynda also needs to put Unicorn in a situation where she would listen at the end of the class, or rather the combat.
And there is only one way to do it.
Glynda went to the middle of the arena with Unicorn and start to stretch her arms as if warming up, making Unicorn raise an eyebrow.
-Can you just tell me what is going on here?
-I need some practice.
-Come again?
-It's been some time since I've been in confrontation with opponents who are not Grimms. -Glynda lied, not mentioning the woman from when she met Ruby. -So I need some practice with an opponent who actually can think straight.
-This still doesn't explain why I am-you want to kick my ass, do you?
-Those are very strong words, Ms. Unicorn. See this as an extra credit activity.
-Why don't you ask for other teachers for some brawling?
-What would people think about they teachers fighting against each other?
-Probably that is something more acceptable than a teacher getting one of her students to fight.
-Are you saying that want to waste an opportunity to face me in combat and get an opportunity to harm me?
Unicorn's face was blank for a moment before speak again.
-I will receive any kind of punishment if I harm you physically in some way?
-No.
After the answer was given, Unicorn immediately grabbed Silver Horn and got some distance from her teacher.
-One last thing. When will this little "practice" be over?
-When I say it is over.
If Unicorn was suspecting that Glynda was using this as an excuse to beat her, now she was sure.
Corridor
-Mr. Minuano. -Sally, the leader of team STRK and Unicorn's partner called her blind professor who did not turn around to talk to her.
-Need something, Ms. Highwind?
-Have you heard of Unicorn? She should have already come back to my room but she still did not appear.
Fernando scratches the back of his head nervously. He knew that whatever is the reason Glynda must be the one responsible. Knowing the combat teacher, he knew that she would not allow any of her students think low of her. She said that the problems would end and she left without giving any explanation, and now Unicorn's leader can't find her around.
Fernando really hoped for whatever happens, it does not end in hostility.
Combat Arena
Glynda P.O.V
I was ready to end Unicorn's rebellious behavior.
What I was going to do would not be acceptable in the eyes of the staff or the parents.
I knew the consequences of make Unicorn's parents angry.
But I would teach Unicorn a lesson.
In a hard way.
-Are you ready Ms. Unicorn?
Unicorn just nodded.
Then it began or could say that.
Even after nodding, Unicorn did not move a muscle from her spot while I waited to grab my crop. I knew Unicorn was not stupid. She probably was waiting for me to make the first move so she could think in some counter-attack.
I decide to amuse Unicorn and grabbed my crop. Immediately Unicorn dashed against me while I raised a barrier blocking her way. Unicorn is not the type to be get caught by surprise and was able to move to the side of the barrier, then she had to use her shield to block an aura shots from me. For my surprise, Unicorn was not only blocking but also repealing her shots and coming closer.
Once closer of me, Unicorn was sent away by an invisible force. She was able to land in her feet and slightly moved her head to the left to not be hit by another of my aura shot.
As her teacher, I knew Unicorn's strong and weak points. So when Unicorn dashed again, I covered the floor with ice, making Unicorn abruptly stop her running.
Unicorn P.O.V
Glynda probably thought that she had me with that move, but I would not lose the opportunity to land a strike in my teacher's beautiful face. Glynda may have known a thing or two about my fighting style but she did not say all I can do.
So when she got ready to give more shots with her crop, she lost her focus for a second after seeing me skating in the ice in high speed. She removed the ice from the floor but I jumped high in the air before I could fall to the floor. She kept shooting at me with her aura but my shield made impossible for her to land a hit on me. I threw my shield in her direction and she used her crop to repeal it but she did not notice me getting closer.
My eyes widened for a moment when I notice Unicorn's blade closer to my face and almost was not able to dodge her attack. She kept attacking me with her sword and I dodge and repeal every one of her strikes. I bet she did not expect someone like me move so well with high heels, huh?
After he last attack, I grabbed her wrist and threw her away, but she grabbed me back by my wrist and pushed herself in my direction. I nearly did not dodge her kick and the force of her push was strong enough to send her back to her shield. Making a whip with my aura, I start to attack her while keeping my distance.
She used both her sword and shield to block my attack but I could say she was having a hard time doing.
That is what you gain for underestimate your opponents, specially if is your combat teacher.
First, she try to keep me away with a barrier. Then she try to keep me away from her. She try to send me away with a throw. And now she is using a whip to keep her distance.
It is clear that Goodwitch is not very good in close combat. That's why she uses too much her semblance. She thinks that can keep me away from her but she did not know that I have something for opponents who like to be away.
After dodge her last shot, I put Silver Horn in the guitar mode and start to show my teacher something different from what she is used to. The face she was making was priceless when she start to hear my song and the purple electricity coming from my guitar. The purple electricty flew through he air made way direct to my teacher.
I did not expected to Unicorn be prepared to fight a enemy from far away of her. And I most certainly not expect of her use her strument for it. Unable to use my aura with electric dust, I could only dodge as Unicorn keep playing chords that would explode someone eardrum.
If this is the rock the youg are listening, I rather stick with my classics, thank you very much.
I raised a ice wall to block the electricity. As Unicorn keep playing I used the opportunity she was not looking at me and swung my crop to send a ice block flying in her direction. Not expect this move, Unicorn could not use her guitar as a shield in time and braced herself for the impact.
*Bump*
For my surprise, the ice block was reduced to snowflakes once it made contact with Unicorn's body, and even after separating her guitar in two again, she did not used her shield to block the attack. Beside of some of her parts of her clothes being covered in ice, she seemed fine.
Unicorn dashed at me again with her sword prepared. This may take more time than I expected.

Sometimes Fernando wonder if his words or of any other member of staff would enter in Cardin's head.
The bully was at the moment stuck int he ceiling thanks to the blind samurai's semblance.
-Sorry. -Fernando said. -I still did not heard you~.
-I said that I am sorry! I will not bother her again! -When he said "her" Cardin mean a girl with fox ears.
After he apologized, Fernando let him down in the floor, face first. Once Cardin was in his feet Fernando spoke.
-We are not over Winchester. We will talk about this in my office later. -Cardin only groaned for have to be lectured again by one of his teachers.
The fox girl thanked her professor said goodbye to him before walk away. Fernando only sighed, wondering what he have to do with this boy to make him understand that-his line of thought was interrupted by a little shaking on the floor. Someone with vision would not feel but the blind samurai could.
-What the? -He asked and then notice something strange in the arena. Two people were there, one of them was Glynda and the other was Unicorn. -Oh shit! -Fernando swore before run in high speed to the arena. The reason?
Unicorn was on the floor, and not moving.
Fernando litteraly put the door down with a kick as he invaded the arena. Right in the middle was Glynda and Fernando knew that one of her cheeks was swollen, and from her heartbeats, Fernando knew that she was surprised and scared. Even without saying a finger in front of his face, Fernando knew the floor seemed like something was dragged roughly on the concrete and in the end of the trail, was Unicorn sitting with her back against the wall, her head down and her body still montionless.
-Glynda! What have you done!? -Fernando shout.
-I... she... -She tried but could not find the words to speak.
Fernando passed by her to see how Unicorn was. After put a hand on her head he felt something wet escaping her forehead. The smell Fernando could reconize anywhere.
The blind samurai quickly carried Unicorn and went quickly to the infirmary, leaving Glynda alone trying to figure out what she has just done.
End of the chapter.
Being honets, I was not so sure what to do with this chapter. The first option was make Unicorn fight with Pyrrha and win, only to Glynda discover after the fight regardless if Unicorn win or lose, she was wrong about her. Then I thought in make Unicorn make fight a student in a year above her and make her lose, making the outcome the same as if she fought against Pyrrha.
Then I remember of one thing, I like to make stories different from the other authors.
Let's see if I can make you guys understand my point of view.
I see every idea for a story as a formula, and as such has its ingredients. One of the formulas is a child wanting to avenge the father, and the igrediente would be how it happened. He was killed by a cheater, or by a bounty hunter, or a huntsmen.
Now using Remnant and one of the biggest fanfiction cliches as an example, the formula would be a faunus wanting to leave the White Fang and seek redemption, but the ingredient for that story everyone use is always the same, the faunus being a teenager wanting to be a huntsmen. The faunus could be an adult looking for a job as a teacher, or living isolated from people and faunus, until that point I expected something different but NO! And I promised myself I would not complain about the fictions of others.
But there is a thin line between make a cliche or go too much far in make something different. I may have passed that line with this chapter, maybe and I may be walking in a minefield but I see worst especially with Cardin.
Anyway, I will end there and see what the readers think.
See you next time.
