Chrono Crusade (2003) s01e20 Episode Script
Temptation/Poison
Joshua, don't get in my way!
I'll take care of him, Aion. You take
the Holy Woman and go.
Use it.
It's all right. I'll stop his rampage.
Joshua
Poison
Rosette!
Stop it, Joshua! Aion's the one you need to kill!
Stop it!
Joshua!
Joshua! Come to your senses!
Josh
Shall we go?
No Let go of me!
Rosette!
Silence.
Yay! Get him, Genai!
Ow!
Now you've done it!
How clumsy. Is this the power of Heaven?
Late as always. Mary Who Brings
the Light is right here.
Stop it, Aion. Don't destroy the balance
between Heaven and Earth!
Then why do the Apostles exist?
Rosette Christopher
The holy scars carved into you belong to me.
Now Heaven has no choice
but to recognize who I am.
Chrono
Joshua
Please! Stop it!
Rosette!
Rosette!
Chrono
Rosette!
Joshua
Chrono
Joshua, stop it.
Stop it!
The noise is the noise is
Please stop!
Lord Joshua
Older sister?
Older sister!
Lord Joshua
No! Stop it, older sister!
The noise Stop the noise!
Joshua, I'll stop the noise.
Rosette
You must live
Chrono!
Lord Joshua
Older sister
Aion!
Are you still trying to interfere?!
Bastard!
Damned angel
Azmaria! Remington!
Are you both all right?
Yes, but
Rosette
I wasn't strong enough, Sister Kate.
Unfortunately, Aion got away with Rosette.
We were able to rescue Joshua,
but even that is only because he is no
longer of any use to the Sinners.
It is our failure.
There is one thing that I simply must ask you.
About me, yes?
You know how far it is from New York to
San Francisco, I take it.
When did you get there?
I also possess the name of an angel.
All the same, I was quite powerless.
Sister Claire
It would be best for you to sleep some more.
Thank you.
Azmaria?
Where is Minister Remington?
Probably upstairs with Minister Gilliam.
Please take me to him!
I have something I need to talk
to him about, right now!
I understand.
The head of Pandemonium sent something
like a memory into my mind.
That when the devils were driven out of Heaven,
they made a pact with God.
Man, who possessed knowledge,
would some day fall from grace.
That is why the devils were given the role of
making man fear Heaven once again,
in order to guide man away from
corruption and to salvation.
It appears that is what that
atonement ceremony was.
We, the Apostles, symbolize the seven virtues
in order to teach man the strength
of Heaven's authority.
To Heaven, the devils are indispensable entities.
It is because the devils exist
that man worships God.
At that time, during the chaos,
a savior that will lead the people to
salvation will appear.
That message is what Rosette's
stigmata were, right?
No, it's a deterrent.
A deterrent?
It's true that the atonement ritual might
be to call forth reverence for God.
But at the same time, it is also when a devil can
further taint a person's heart with darkness.
The stigmata that young woman
had carved into her
and this unique justice should have
been a powerful deterrent
to a devil rising to power.
So that in the end, Heaven will be able
to sing the praises of victory.
I see, so paradoxically,
that powerful deterrent is also a
powerful military force.
And this is why Aion wanted Rosette.
At times, justice is accompanied by violence.
He wanted to use the justice as violence.
Is that the other ending to the Apocalypse
that he was talking about?
An army of angels How much did you know?
I don't have any power.
Rather, I mustn't do anything.
All I can do is watch over the times.
As I think about it now,
the Sinners gathering the Apostles together
might itself have been Heaven's plan.
So, what do we do from here?
Nothing.
We keep going, just as we have.
Is this also because of my causality?
My wings call forth unhappiness.
Not a single person that has been
a part of my life will be happy.
Chrono, save Rosette.
An empty vessel
An empty vessel
Put it on.
No
Fiore made this for you.
The Jewel Witch's older sister.
For when Joshua met his real older sister.
Where's Joshua?
Your friends took him away.
I have no business with the Apostles any longer.
I don't need the other Sinners either.
Right now, it's just you and me.
Why?
How about seeing with your own eyes?
That was too selfless for a devil.
This is the answer?
This is all your doing.
This was done by your beloved younger brother
and your partner. It was all over you.
This is the result of your four years.
Because of the love they have for you.
Because of love, Chrono and Joshua
destroyed the town.
This is the proof of their love for you.
It's cruel proof, isn't it, Rosette Christopher?
Because of you, so many people have died,
been hurt, and lost their future.
Everyone is wondering, "Why did
this happened to me?"
"God, why are you doing this? Please tell me."
Everyone is clutching their crucifixes
and looking up at Heaven.
But He will never answer them.
Many people have died.
In an instant, those things most
precious to them were taken away.
Have they committed any kind of sin?
This is too irrational.
You can hear their sorrowful voices, can't you?
As He shows you this despair and hopelessness,
where is the hand to save them?
It's the same as four years ago.
I can see your heart.
"I have to help them somehow, quickly."
That's it, right?
That is faith, and the path of man.
That is something you are able to do.
What could you possibly know?
I do know, because I'm a devil.
Forget about that unmoving watch.
You're an accomplice now.
Make your choice. Do you want to
save them, or don't you?
I want to save them.
But not with you!
You're going to start it. We'll change the
world together, and build the era.
Ever since I first laid eyes on you,
I waited for the justice that was
inside of you to mature.
Justice swelled up in the space
between faith and revenge.
And so much killing happened in the
name of love, because of you.
That is what you are.
This town was sacrificed in order
for us to win our freedom.
Are you prepared to fly into freedom with me?
Chrono told you to live.
What is it that you must live to achieve?
What purpose
are these marks for?
Do you still need that?
This is my life.
In my memories, you are always smiling.
But that might just be a false image I
created unconsciously.
I wanted you to be by my side in order
to run away from my own sin.
Even though it was me that stole your
smile, and nobody else.
Next episode, "Magdalene"
This is the end of my dream.
I'm on the verge of making
the same mistake again.
