Three parties were fighting over one portrait, each having their own goals and each thinking the others' resolve are misplaced.
Rebecca wanted to end Malice's bloodline by breaking the protrait, killing the one inside it. Trick wanted to escape with the portrait with Melissa still inside to prevent Malice from seeking them. When Malice is ended, then she will break the princess out.
Francoise, Midnight and Sun wants to break Melissa out of the portrait to avoid it being broken and her to be killed inside. Their differences are causing them to fight over which was to be followed.
"Selfish people," Rebecca sighed. "You really think anyone in this world could defeat Malice? She won't die unless she is killed and that's not going to happen. She's the strongest being below the Absolutes and all of you know that."
"You're wrong!" Midnight yelled. "Elliot and his friends will defeat her. They will slay the Black Queen and bring peace to Hell."
