Bellarix blinks at the anger, having noted the arm twitch.
Then, she is angry with herself for having moved back a little when she saw it. Hissing a curse, she stands, turning her back on him.
She wants to say some biting remark about how they are not lovers, and if he kept acting the way he was (he was this close to actually hitting her outside of combat!), they wouldn't be friends much longer.
But, she has to admit that he is right. "Excuse the hell out of me for actually caring about you," she mutters, in a voice that is barely loud enough for even her to hear. She blinks at her little outburst, and hisses angrily, her tail twitching like a threatened rattler's.
What a way to throw her own words back at her. But, that was before she actually cared about what happened to him. "Have it your way," she says, her voice cold.

Signis sighed and stood, moving and wrapping his arms around her from behind. "I am touched that you care..." He murmured and kissed her cheek. "I just don't want you beating yourself up over hurting me, or feeling guilty about it, it wasn't your fault..."

Hissing a little, she refuses to let herself lean against him, even if she wants to. She is shocked by how easily she would have, a little unnerved by it as well.
She lets him hold her a moment, just staying still, and gently pulls away when she feels her resolve crumbling. She silently starts to pick up the dishes, and takes them to the kitchen. She throws them into the sink, tail twitching in the same manner as before, before going to the bedroom again, and grabbing her sheath.
Snakey, having seen this coming, has long since left the cave. As much as he enjoys his arguments with Bellatrix, he is not going to stick around for any she might have now.
She straps the sheath around her waist before crossing her arms under her chest again, quirking an eyebrow at Signis. "Whenever you are ready, Master Signis," she says, hissing the last words without realizing it.

Signis just bowed and headed for his own blade. "As the Queen demands..." He murmured, it was obvious that he was not angry anymore, just wanting her to see that she shouldn't feel guilty about hurting him...
But no matter... He headed out of the cave to the exact same spot as the day before.

Bellatrix walks three steps behind him, the whole time going about the task of picturing the flame, and then snuffing it out.
By the time they reach the spot, her eyes are blank, and she turns to face Signis. She adopts the defensive stance, and waits for him to move.

Signis also seized the void and he darted forewards, striking high at her with his blade, aiming at her shouldder, the edge of his blade coming down to meet hers.
He would not show her any mercry this time, this time, it was a true test, he would bleed her if she did not fight well...

Bellatrix's bones jar with the impact of their swords as her reflexes shoot her arms up to block it.
Taking a step back to free her blade without him hitting her, she quickly adopts the attack stance, and brings her blade upward, right to left, not bothering with trying to not harm him, either.

Signis turned into her attack and swung a counter into her blade, the leg he had closet to her sweeping behind her nearest knee to try and knock her down. From there, he would strike her while she was weakest...
In a fight, there are not rules of engament, only skill...

Bellatrix does fall, but she tries her best not to drop her guard. She watches him, knowing she doesn't have enough time to get back up before he strikes again. She can only hope she can get hr blade up in time. . . .

Signis brough his blade down on her quickly but controled, aiming to give her wrist a cut, hoping that it would make her lose her blade thus allowing him to move in for the 'kill'. He was trying to teach her by showing her, he'd started easy with just blades, now he was adding kicks, soon he would add other forms of combat as well.

Bellatrix doesn't get her blade up in time to block, and the resulting cut results in her grip on her sword slipping a little.
She judges the way Signis's muscles are moving, and knows that she still doesn't have time enough to stand, so she starts to tighten her grip on her blade again, waiting.

Signis begins to rain down blows onto her blade, striking harder and harder with each blow...
What he does not know, is the fact that the Guardium is much stronger and much harder than teh blood steel of his own blade...
He would find out very soon, that as great a smith as his father was, Guardium would outlast blood steel blow for blow...

Bellatrix manages to keep her blade up, despite her arms being jarred continiously.
Having enough, she kicks out at him, hard, with one of her feet, hoping to stop him long enough for her to jump back up and take her own swings at him.

Just as she kics him he brings his blade down HARD upon hers...
The sound of the metal shattering covered his grunt, and the fragments flew away from the two, leaving Signis witout a sword at all. He tossed the destoryed blade away and quickly jumped back into a defensive stance, favoring his injured leg, she must have brusied it or somethign cause it HURT.
He held the defensive stance weaponless...
This fight was far from over...

Trixie had squinted her eyes shut as the shards went flying, and her arms scream at her. She didn't want any to get in her eyes, after all!
But, she opens them, she sees that she must have hurt him with her kick. Jumping to her feet, she adopts the attack stance again.
A little of her anger from before the fight filters through, and the void shakes. Pushing it back, she grits her teeth.
No, she is not dropping her blade. . . . Instead, she swings it at him, again. . . .
