Chrono Crusade (2003) s01e09 Episode Script

The Sinner!
The Sinner has come!
Aion!
Aion has come!
You certainly gave me a hard time.
It doesn't matter, because in the end,
you'll be destroyed by Aion!
There's no place for you humans to run!
Aion
The darkness has been growing
more turbulent ever since that day.
What is Aion?
Joshua
So you finally found him?
It's been so long.
The papers themselves were in
their hands at one point,
so we can't be entirely sure about this,
but it looks like we can uncover
his tracks with these.
Speaking of which, where is Rosette?
She went to the place where all of this began.
At Seventh Bell? I see
Wow
This place would draw too many eyes
if we had left it as it was. That's why.
Wait up, please!
Where was the switch?
I have a feeling that it was this way.
Well Wait, you two!
Rosette?
Rosette, where are you?
Please answer me
Rosette? Are you over there?
Oh, it's just a board.
A board?
Azmaria!
Oww
Are you all right, Azmaria?
It hurts.
That's because you screamed all
of a sudden when you saw my face.
But
It was four years ago.
Winter, four years ago.
This place is still just like that time, that night.
It will remain unchanged from here on as well.
A world where everything is frozen.
Joshua did this?
It wasn't Joshua!
It was Aion!
Aion did this!
Azmaria, if you've decided to fight,
then it would be wise for you to take
a good look at what Aion has done.
At what he was trying to start.
Hey! Wait!
Oh, you guys! Cut it out already!
Moron! That's against the rules!
Rosette's serious!
This is bad, she's going to kill us!
What are you going to do about the laundry?!
If you're going to play around,
then play around over there!
Hey! Wait!
Rosette, that's enough!
Rosette, go for it!
Why, you
You're not getting away!
Ow ow ow
Billy, you're going to be taking
responsibility for this!
Responsibility?
That's right!
You're going to wash the things
that you got dirty!
Yay!
But it's your turn today, Rosette!
After what just happened,
you're still saying that?
Hey, what happened to the bucket?
It's over there.
Joshua, Joshua, hold on!
The bucket!
The bucket!
That wasn't me, Rosette's the one who did it!
Should I go get the teacher?
Oh, Joshua!
I got you! I got you!
There's no way a wild throw like that
would hit anything!
Oh, that was fun!
Why, you
Are you all right, Joshua?
Did you take your medicine?
Yeah.
I feel good today, so let me
stay outside a little more.
Joshua
Please, Rosette.
Okay.
Rosette, isn't the Minister
coming this afternoon?
Then why don't we be daring
and go even further outside?
Rosette!
Joshua again?
Well, it can't be helped.
If we're not careful around him, after all,
Miss Jean gets annoying!
Then today, as well
Yes, when I had taken my eyes off of her
for just a moment
I'm sorry.
It can't be helped.
And you say that you wish to take Joshua?
Yes, he possesses a special talent.
Because of that, we would most certainly like
to bring him into our Order.
We have been searching for quite some time
for people who have the same
special abilites as he does.
I was thinking that it would be nice
if I could actually meet him.
I think that it is a very good offer.
But more than Joshua himself, Rosette is
It does seem that his sister really hates me.
Those siblings really do get along well.
She probably believes that her
younger brother will be taken away.
Hey, Rosette, how far are we going to go?
Is it all right for us to stay out like this
and not go back?
It's all right! We're not going back
until the Minister gives up!
In the first place, he's strange!
If you trust someone like that,
what do you think will happen?!
You might get put into a strange
experimental device,
get experimented on mercilessly,
and end up pickled in formalin!
Rosette, you read too many strange books.
Really? I got all of that out of your dime novels.
But he came here from New York, right?
It might be more fun than being
out in the countryside here.
It's a convent! It's not like
you'd be living in the city.
But when we turn fifteen,
we have to leave here anyway,
so I don't think that there's any difference
in going there now.
I don't want to.
Your body is weak, so it would be dangerous
to leave you by yourself.
You're being a busybody.
Oh, but that's my duty as your older sister.
I can't breathe
I'm sorry, Rosette.
Owww!
The water is
Where is this?
Oww
Rosette! Are you all right?
I'm not all right, it cut me to the bone!
You just scraped your knee, is all.
But it hurts!
You're hopeless.
Thank you.
This is all I have that's deserving of thanks,
right, Rosette?
Don't say such foolish things. Let's find the exit.
Why
Why can't I heal my own injuries or sicknesses?
If I could
It's all right!
You use your power for other people,
and I'll protect you, no matter what!
Now, let's go.
What a huge door. It's got to be the exit!
There's something written here.
An eternal becoming saint
magda sleeping?
Do you understand it?
It's no use. It's worn away, so I can't read
It opened.
Yeah.
Is this really the exit?
Now that I think about it,
Miss Jean said something about this before.
That deep in the forest was someone's grave.
A grave?!
It's a coffin.
Then this place really is
Who?
Who is the one that has awakened me?
Who is the one that has awakened me?
Well, who are you?
I'm Chrono. I'm what you people call a devil.
What do you mean by devil?
Just what I said. A thing that you humans fear.
Hey, are you all right?
It looks like I don't have enough spiritual energy.
I don't really understand,
but do you mean that you're hungry?
Wait just a second.
Here you are, eat up!
Thank you.
And that's how I met Chrono.
I'm Rosette. This is my younger brother Joshua.
At first, I thought, "Who is this guy,
calling himself a devil?"
Nice to meet you. Would it be all right if I shook your hand?
That's mean!
Nice to meet you. Would it be all right
if I shook your hand?
You guys were pretty strange yourselves.
But you know, becoming friends
with a devil was cool, right?
Especially for Joshua, since he liked the occult.
Right.
But I wonder why?
When I first met Chrono,
I was so afraid I couldn't help myself,
but it went away, like it had never been.
Well Whose coffin was it?
The holy woman, Magdalene.
It's a name that makes us Sinners
feel very uneasy.
Why were you at that person's grave?
I'm sorry, I didn't mean that like that at all.
That is well
Chrono!
Over here!
Yesterday, they finally said we could go outside.
It's funny!
Even though he was sick in bed, he didn't talk
about anything but your stories, Chrono.
But Chrono's stories are really interesting.
Even you looked like you were
going to cry during
"The Wind Master" and
"The Thunderbird's Story."
Well, those will make you cry.
If that story didn't make you cry,
it just goes to show
your personality's too twisted.
I don't want to hear that from YOU, Rosette.
What do you mean by that?
A great river that flows in the Heavens?
A great river in the heavens
do you mean the Milky Way?
No, I'm talking about the invisible Astral Line.
Astral Line?
Right, it flows very far away,
and is made up of the source of all life.
You might be able to call it
fragments of life force.
Those fragments fall to the Earth,
combine with a life,
become a soul, and are born.
And a soul whose life has ended
goes back into the Heavens,
returns to being a fragment,
and goes back into the great river.
They say that this giant cycle has been
continuing on this planet for billions of years.
Then, if we go there, we can meet
people who have died?
I wonder?
Actually, I'm just repeating what
I heard someone else say.
Incredible!
That's incredible, Chrono! It's the first time
I've heard something like that!
Most people don't realize it,
but it's certain that people's souls
continue to flow in this world.
All right! This settles it!
Settles what?
Actually, it's our dream to become explorers.
Africa, the Amazon, the Antarctic,
the two of us will go to places
no one else has ever been.
And we're going to write our records in books!
And if we can find the Astral Line too,
then that would be a great discovery!
And he was so excited.
I think he got tired because
he was running around too much.
But thank goodness.
He hasn't been talking about his dreams lately,
so I thought that he might have
given up on them.
Since he started being able to use his power,
he's been prone to getting sick,
and his fits have gotten worse.
It's strange, isn't it?
Joshua can't heal his own
injuries or sicknesses.
Chrono, I'd rather become a doctor
than an explorer.
For Joshua's sake?
Yeah.
You're so kind.
But I wonder if it's impossible.
There's no way for me to become one.
God is pretty unfair, isn't he?
Chrono, keep this a secret from Joshua, okay?
Okay.
Thank you.
Just a little more! Go for it, Chrono!
Go, go! Go, go!
Just a little more! Go for it, Chrono!
You did it!
Rosette!
Chrono!
Why? Why am I so warm?
It's just like lying in the sun.
I'd like to stay like this forever.
Forever
But what is this?
Is someone watching me?
What's wrong, Rosette?
He
Joshua decided by himself!
There are some minor formalities,
so I'll come again tomorrow.
You'll be leaving in one week.
Until then, it would be best to
take it easy and recuperate.
Yes, Sir.
We won't know until we do a full examination,
but it looks like the power is
putting a strain on your body.
But why, all of the sudden?
She's strong.
Always energetic and running around,
shouting out at the top of her loud voice.
But she's gentle, just to me.
She's the kind of person who
never holds back,
but it's been so tough for me.
That's why I don't want her worrying so much.
Minister
If I go, will I be able to become strong?
Rosette
What's wrong?
Chrono!
Stay back!
You mustn't come any closer, Rosette!
Yo, Chrono.
Long time no see. Have you been well?
Aion!
Let's do it together again, Chrono.
Look, Rosette! This is my power!
I'm one of the Chosen!
Joshua, what are you saying?!
Why are you looking me like that?
Stop it! Stop it! Stop the noise!
Yo, Chrono. How about we have
some fun together again?
Answer me! What did you do to Joshua?!
Next episode, "Horn"
Rosette Christopher, I will make
a contract with you.
