Chrono Crusade (2003) s01e21 Episode Script

Mary Magdalene

Magdalene
Where's Rosette?
Unfortunately, her whereabouts
are still unknown.
The police are working with us too, but
under these circumstances,
we're short on manpower.
Civic faculties are completely paralyzed.
The situation is that everyone
in the city saw Chrono,
so rumors about the end are flying about.
Ironically, all the churches are
flourishing though.
It's not just 'Cisco.
The disturbance is spreading out
throughout the entirety of America!
This is the worst, isn't it?
We can't even guess what Aion's
next move is going to be.
Can't you infer anything from
Azmaria's testimony?
It is difficult.
Even for you?
Yes
Minister, did you know that
Rosette was an Apostle?
My honest answer to that is,
I was never told.
Ultimately, it seems that was
all my position merited.
Older sister!
Miss Satella! Your older sister is
Lord Joshua, I will give you power right now.
Do you want a jewel, older sister?
What are you intending on doing?
They are unnecessary.
The blood-colored jewel does
not befit Lord Joshua.
I am Lord Joshua's older sister.
I will decide what he needs.
What are you saying? You're not his
older sister! You're mine!
Who are you?
Please don't interfere!
Lord Joshua
Who are you? Where's my big sister?
My older sister has gone to sleep.
She doesn't see me.
It looks like Joshua has become her everything.
Well, your older sister's body is
If only I had some spiritual power left.
You? It couldn't be
Yes, it's disappeared.
No matter how much I wish, or sing,
nothing happens.
Why did God grant me this power?
Aion killed the Apostles when
the ritual was finished.
It might be that I could have died there.
But I'm still alive!
My life, which was supposed to have
ended, is still going.
It's all right for me to live, isn't it?
Of course it is. You have to live for
Steiner's sake too. Okay?
Lord Duffau
How did it go?
We've found him.
I see, and the holy woman?
She's with him. Will you tell the
Magdalene Order?
The humans right now are
too timid to be of use.
They were of less use than I
thought they would be.
Chrono
Is it all right to leave things this way?
You love her, don't you?
You're Magdalene, the Holy Woman, right?
I've been waiting for you, inside this bird cage.
I've wanted to meet you, all this time.
Hey, Minister, if we go to the Order,
will Chrono be there?
Chrono?
The person in my dreams. He's dark,
tall and very frightening.
But he's crying.
Why is he crying? If I meet him,
do you think he will tell me?
If it's a dream you had, then you'll
meet him, some day.
When that time comes, definitely.
The time has come, hasn't it, Chrono?
Why do you know my name?
A devil?
Back away from the Holy Woman!
What are you saying, you foolish human?
Now, Holy Woman, this way!
In six point two seconds,
he will slash down at your shoulder from above.
It's all right, because as long as
I'm here, they won't fire.
Release the Holy Woman!
So you can see the future.
That's why you came to take me away, right?
I am fated to carve the Seven
Sorrows of the Virgin Mary
into the path I walk.
You want that fate, right, Mr. Sinner?
What?
Don't look at me like that.
You're afraid of hurting people, aren't you?
There was no reason to hurt anyone earlier.
But someday, you will hurt someone.
You will have no choice but to hurt someone.
Not wanting to hurt anyone is
children's nonsense, Chrono.
It's natural for beings with
hearts to hurt one another.
That's harsh.
If you protect someone, then you
will, without exception,
hurt someone else.
If you live, it is something that
is going to happen.
Everything is supposed to have
been for the dream.
It is because you were prepared for that
that you came and took me away.
So you can see through everything?
Just events, I can't read minds.
Thank you.
What happened to your horns?
With this, I am free!
If you do that, then you can't retain any Astral.
You'll die!
Someday they will become unnecessary.
For that reason we have the Holy Woman.
If you don't have your horns, you'll die.
That's why you're here.
It'll be ready soon.
What's that?
An Astral focusing control unit.
In layman's terms, a replacement for our horns.
Although you end up requiring
a source of Astral.
For example, a human being's
life or something.
And the ceremony?
It depends on the rotation of the stars, you see.
I haven't fully deciphered the
Book of Atonement,
but if we go ahead and connect
the legends together,
I guess the rest will be up to
our own resourcefulness.
Does it not hurt?
The pain opens my eyes.
The horizon of freedom has
widened yet another step.
Can't you tell?
There's something I want to ask you.
You know of us.
Are you looking at the end of the dream?
The lights of the city
I like to look at the city when the sun is setting.
The lights of life
Each and every light has a life.
And a family. They're proof that
the people are alive.
But the proof that I'm alive is
Stigmata?!
That's right, the mark of
those chosen by God.
Ever since this mark was cut into me,
I've gained knowledge of the future and the past.
And in my memory,
nothing but thousands of past and future
events overlap one another.
I don't remember anything from when I was little.
And nothing about my parents either.
Dreams of happy weddings, dreams of the
instant of horrible death
I carry them all as sensations that are
no different from reality.
All of the events that will occur on this planet
are engraved into my memory.
There are so many of those memories
that my true self became lost
somewhere along the way.
An empty vessel that can be filled with
anything, but contains nothing.
That is what I am.
Even still, there is just one
A dream I remember that I've seen
countless times since I was small,
a dream for me alone.
Inside of my cloistered, indistinct self,
the only certain thing about my past.
The future within that,
a truth that is mine alone.
A dream of you!
Of me?
Yes
You are Chrono, the person
that will take away my life.
Take away your life? I'm going to?
Yes
Despite that, you came here?
You continued to wait for me?
I am empty, and you are going to fill me.
How can you remain so calm?
Because I'm with you.
Seriously, you are an unusual woman.
Chrono, you're wavering, aren't you?
Between your role and who you are
Your dream will fail.
Because you will try to not hurt anyone.
Please be careful of Aion. Even though
you think of him as a friend,
he does not see you as a friend.
It's ready!
Say, where's the head of Pandemonium?
We're not doing it today.
Aion! Why?
The rotation of the stars is
saying that now is the time.
We've even brought the Holy Woman who
has the stigmata cut into her.
We have the head of Pandemonium too!
We're going to begin a revolution to make
complete that which is not, aren't we?
If we let this chance go
Magdalene is nothing more than
a decoy set up by God.
A decoy?
The Holy Woman has been sent
to make our plans fail.
She told Chrono about the future.
Thanks to that, our choices have increased.
Chrono, kill the Holy Woman.
Fulfill your role!
You knew of this fate, so why did you
come? Why didn't you struggle?
No matter how much you reject it,
a fate that must come cannot be changed.
In that case, I at least wanted to know
what kind of person was going
to take my life away.
Because I fell in love with you, Chrono.
Oh, it's you
Please hold on!
It looks like your ability to see events
was off just this once.
No! I won't let you die!
The wounds are this bad and I've lost my horns,
so I can't even heal my injuries.
If you need a replacement for your
horns, then there's one here.
This is a contract. With my life, you will
Stop it, you live.
Why you're crying Why you'll take
away my life Now I know.
Because of our contract, we will become one.
My blood and yours will count off time together.
Oh, it's you
You love Rosette Christopher, don't you?
Yeah
You're the one fighting with destiny, Chrono.
But in order to save her, someday
you'll have to kill the friends
that you spoke of the same dream with.
Is that the inevitable harm that you spoke of?
Are you prepared to do that?
I want to protect Rosette.
I want to protect her enough
to cover your share!
Chrono live, and
Chrono
So he's moving.
Come, your sin awaits you.
Oh, Chrono!
Who are you?
He doesn't remember. Everything, even
his power, has disappeared.
Even about Rosette?
Yes
Remington!
Don't you think that the cross
they bear is too large?
Your faith is wavering. Is that
what you wish to say?
If I didn't believe, I don't think I
would be able to stand this.
Let the Holy Woman go! There's no way
for you to escape anymore!
As you wish
Gurio!
Why you
Aion!
Bastard, what did you do to the Holy Woman?
For a devil to be offering a prayer
I'll go with you. I want to get
revenge for my older sister.
Ten years It took ten years to
finally get her back, and yet
Chrono
Gurio?!
Duffau's been killed.
The one that killed him is your partner.
Be wary of the Holy Woman's blood.
A bond that has been split in two pieces
Is her will in brandishing her weapon
because she was gripped by darkness?
Or could it be because of a
hidden and fervent desire?
Searching for the answer to the ten
years she spent wandering about,
Satella confronts her older sister.
When that voice is able to turn towards
the sky and scream,
her journey will end.
Next episode, "Goodbye"
Lord, please bless these injured souls.
Goodbye
