[00:25] ---
    Let's fly in the prettiest sky
[00:31] ---
    Towards a definite future, try
[00:46] ---
    Wishes are reflected in your eyes,
    smiles overflowing with brilliance

[00:57] ---
    Entrust your wings to the current,
    right now, without looking back

[01:09] ---
    The miracle we met
    by chance is the pleasure line

[01:13] ---
    We made a promise, right?
[01:21] ---
    Let's fly to the prettiest sky
[01:27] ---
    No matter how often you fall, try
[01:31] ---
    The tomorrow you grab
    hold of as you're being hurt

[01:36] ---
    I will never forget you,
    telling this gently and strongly

[01:58] ---
    The Sinner!
[02:00] ---
    The Sinner has come!
[02:03] ---
    Aion!
[02:05] ---
    Aion has come!
[02:13] ---
    You certainly gave me a hard time.
[02:18] ---
    It doesn't matter, because in
    the end, you'll be destroyed by Aion!
[02:22] ---
    There's no place for you humans to run!
[02:29] ---
    Aion...
[02:32] ---
    The darkness has been growing
    more turbulent ever since that day.
[02:38] ---
    What is Aion?
[02:42] ---
    Joshua
[02:46] ---
    So you finally found him?
[02:49] ---
    It's been so long.
[02:50] ---
    The papers themselves
    were in their hands at one point,
[02:53] ---
    so we can't be entirely sure about this,
[02:55] ---
    but it looks like we can
    uncover his tracks with these.
[02:58] ---
    Speaking of which, where is Rosette?
[03:01] ---
    She went to the place
    where all of this began.
[03:04] ---
    At Seventh Bell?
[03:07] ---
    I see...
[03:13] ---
    Wow...
[03:16] ---
    This place would draw too many eyes
    if we had left it as it was. That's why.
[03:25] ---
    Wait up, please!
[03:38] ---
    Where was the switch?
[03:40] ---
    I have a feeling that it was this way.
[03:44] ---
    Well... Wait, you two!
[03:56] ---
    Rosette?
[04:08] ---
    Rosette, where are you?
[04:12] ---
    Please answer me...
[04:18] ---
    Rosette? Are you over there?
[04:37] ---
    Oh, it's just a board.
[04:41] ---
    A board?
[04:51] ---
    Azmaria!
[05:01] ---
    Oww...
[05:04] ---
    Are you all right, Azmaria?
[05:06] ---
    It hurts.
[05:08] ---
    That's because you screamed
    all of a sudden when you saw my face.
[05:11] ---
    But...
[05:17] ---
    It was four years ago.
[05:19] ---
    Winter, four years ago.
[05:21] ---
    This place is still just
    like that time, that night.
[05:25] ---
    It will remain
    unchanged from here on as well.
[05:28] ---
    A world where everything is frozen.
[05:30] ---
    Joshua did this?
[05:33] ---
    It wasn't Joshua!
[05:35] ---
    It was Aion!
[05:37] ---
    Aion did this!
[05:40] ---
    Azmaria, if you've decided to fight,
[05:42] ---
    then it would be wise for you to
    take a good look at what Aion has done.
[05:47] ---
    At what he was trying to start.
[05:55] ---
    Hey! Wait!
[05:59] ---
    Oh, you guys! Cut it out already!
[06:02] ---
    Moron! That's against the rules!
[06:05] ---
    Rosette's serious!
[06:08] ---
    This is bad, she's going to kill us!
[06:11] ---
    What are you going
    to do about the laundry?!
[06:13] ---
    If you're going to play around,
    then play around over there!
[06:18] ---
    Hey! Wait!
[06:19] ---
    Rosette, that's enough!
[06:21] ---
    Rosette, go for it!
[06:24] ---
    Why, you...
[06:26] ---
    You're not getting away!
[06:31] ---
    Ow ow ow...
[06:35] ---
    Billy, you're going to be
    taking responsibility for this!
[06:38] ---
    Responsibility?
[06:39] ---
    That's right!
[06:41] ---
    You're going to wash
    the things that you got dirty!
[06:45] ---
    Yay!
[06:46] ---
    But it's your turn today, Rosette!
[06:49] ---
    After what just happened,
    you're still saying that?
[06:53] ---
    Hey, what happened to the bucket?
[06:56] ---
    It's over there.
[07:01] ---
    Joshua, Joshua, hold on!
[07:03] ---
    The bucket!
[07:03] ---
    Joshua, Joshua!
[07:04] ---
    That wasn't me,
[07:05] ---
    Rosette's the one who did it!
[07:05] ---
    Joshua, Joshua!
[07:07] ---
    Should I go get the teacher?
[07:08] ---
    Oh, Joshua!
[07:18] ---
    I got you! I got you!
[07:21] ---
    There's no way a wild throw
    like that would hit anything!
[07:24] ---
    Oh, that was fun!
[07:27] ---
    Why, you...
[07:36] ---
    Are you all right, Joshua?
    Did you take your medicine?
[07:39] ---
    Yeah.
[07:41] ---
    I feel good today,
    so let me stay outside a little more.
[07:46] ---
    Joshua...
[07:48] ---
    Please, Rosette.
[07:54] ---
    Okay.
[07:56] ---
    Rosette, isn't the Minister
    coming this afternoon?
[07:59] ---
    Then why don't we be daring
    and go even further outside?
[08:05] ---
    Rosette!
[08:09] ---
    Joshua again?
[08:11] ---
    Well, it can't be helped.
[08:13] ---
    After all, if we're not careful
    around him, Miss Jean gets annoying!
[08:17] ---
    Then today, as well...
[08:19] ---
    Yes, when I had taken
    my eyes off of her for just a moment...
[08:22] ---
    I'm sorry.
[08:25] ---
    It can't be helped.
[08:27] ---
    And you say that you wish to take Joshua?
[08:31] ---
    Yes, he possesses a special talent.
[08:35] ---
    Because of that, we would most
    certainly like to bring him into our Order.
[08:40] ---
    We have been searching for quite some time
[08:42] ---
    for people who have
    the same special abilites as he does.
[08:45] ---
    I was thinking that it would
    be nice if I could actually meet him.
[08:50] ---
    I think that it is a very good offer.
[08:53] ---
    But more than Joshua himself, Rosette is...
[08:57] ---
    It does seem that his sister really hates me.
[09:02] ---
    Those siblings really do get along well.
[09:06] ---
    She probably believes that
    her younger brother will be taken away.
[09:11] ---
    Hey, Rosette, how far are we going to go?
[09:14] ---
    Is it all right for us to stay
    out like this and not go back?
[09:17] ---
    It's all right! We're not going
    back until the Minister gives up!
[09:21] ---
    In the first place, he's strange!
[09:24] ---
    If you trust someone like that,
    what do you think will happen?!
[09:28] ---
    You might get put into
    a strange experimental device,
[09:30] ---
    get experimented on mercilessly,
[09:33] ---
    and end up pickled in formalin!
[09:36] ---
    Rosette, you read too many strange books.
[09:39] ---
    Really? I got all of that
    out of your dime novels.
[09:44] ---
    But he came here from New York, right?
[09:47] ---
    It might be more fun than
    being out in the countryside here.
[09:49] ---
    It's a convent! It's not like
    you'd be living in the city.
[09:53] ---
    But when we turn fifteen,
    we have to leave here anyway,
[09:57] ---
    so I don't think that there's
    any difference in going there now.
[10:00] ---
    I don't want to.
[10:02] ---
    Your body is weak, so it would be
    dangerous to leave you by yourself.
[10:07] ---
    You're being a busybody.
[10:08] ---
    Oh, but that's my duty as your older sister.
[10:39] ---
    I can't breathe...
[10:40] ---
    I'm sorry, Rosette.
[10:48] ---
    Owww!
[10:52] ---
    The water is...
[10:53] ---
    Where is this?
[10:55] ---
    Oww...
[10:57] ---
    Rosette! Are you all right?
[10:59] ---
    I'm not all right, it cut me to the bone!
[11:03] ---
    You just scraped your knee, is all.
[11:05] ---
    But it hurts!
[11:07] ---
    You're hopeless.
[11:24] ---
    Thank you.
[11:25] ---
    This is all I have that's
    deserving of thanks, right, Rosette?
[11:30] ---
    Don't say such
    foolish things. Let's find the exit.
[11:34] ---
    Why...
[11:35] ---
    Why can't I heal my
    own injuries or sicknesses?
[11:41] ---
    If I could...
[11:46] ---
    It's all right!
[11:49] ---
    You use your power for other people,
[11:51] ---
    and I'll protect you, no matter what!
[11:54] ---
    Now, let's go.
[12:02] ---
    What a huge door. It's got to be the exit!
[12:08] ---
    There's something written here.
[12:11] ---
    "An eternal... becoming...
    saint... magda... sleeping?"
[12:18] ---
    Do you understand it?
[12:19] ---
    It's no use. It's worn away, so I can't read...
[12:33] ---
    It opened.
[12:35] ---
    Yeah.
[12:37] ---
    Is this really the exit?
[12:40] ---
    Now that I think about it,
[12:41] ---
    Miss Jean said something about this before.
[12:43] ---
    That deep in the forest was someone's grave.
[12:47] ---
    A grave?!
[12:57] ---
    It's a coffin.
[12:59] ---
    Then this place really is...
[13:01] ---
    Who?
[13:04] ---
    Who is the one that has awakened me?
[13:13] ---
    Who is the one that has awakened me?
[13:17] ---
    Well, who are you?
[13:19] ---
    I'm Chrono.
    I'm what you people call a devil.
[13:25] ---
    What do you mean by devil?
[13:30] ---
    Just what I said.
    A thing that you humans fear.
[13:37] ---
    Hey, are you all right?
[13:39] ---
    It looks like I don't
    have enough spiritual energy.
[13:42] ---
    I don't really understand,
    but do you mean that you're hungry?
[13:47] ---
    Wait just a second.
[13:52] ---
    Here you are, eat up!
[13:54] ---
    T-Thank you.
[13:57] ---
    And that's how I met Chrono.
[13:59] ---
    I'm Rosette.
[13:59] ---
    At first, I thought,
[14:00] ---
    This is my younger brother Joshua.
[14:00] ---
    "Who is this guy, calling himself a devil?"
[14:02] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[14:04] ---
    Would it be all right if I shook your hand?
[14:05] ---
    That's mean!
[14:06] ---
    You guys were pretty strange yourselves.
[14:12] ---
    But you know, becoming
    friends with a devil was cool, right?
[14:16] ---
    Especially for Joshua,
    since he liked the occult.
[14:19] ---
    Right.
[14:20] ---
    But I wonder why?
[14:22] ---
    When I first met Chrono,
[14:25] ---
    I was so afraid I couldn't help myself,
[14:28] ---
    but it went away, like it had never been.
[14:33] ---
    Well...
[14:35] ---
    Whose coffin was it?
[14:38] ---
    The holy woman, Magdalene.
[14:41] ---
    It's a name that makes
    us Sinners feel very uneasy.
[14:45] ---
    Why were you at that person's grave?
[14:50] ---
    I'm sorry, I didn't
    mean it like that at all.
[14:54] ---
    That is... well...
[15:09] ---
    Chrono!
[15:13] ---
    Over here!
[15:19] ---
    Yesterday, they finally
    said we could go outside.
[15:22] ---
    It's funny!
[15:24] ---
    Even though he was sick in bed, he didn't
    talk about anything but your stories, Chrono.
[15:26] ---
    But Chrono's stories are really interesting.
[15:30] ---
    Even you looked like
    you were going to cry during
[15:32] ---
    "The Wind Master"
    and "The Thunderbird's Story."
[15:35] ---
    Well, those will make you cry.
[15:36] ---
    If that story didn't make you cry,
[15:38] ---
    it just goes to show
    your personality's too twisted.
[15:40] ---
    I don't want to hear
    that from you, Rosette.
[15:42] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[15:47] ---
    A great river that flows in the Heavens?
[15:49] ---
    A great river in the heavens...
    Do you mean the Milky Way?
[15:52] ---
    No, I'm talking about
    the invisible Astral Line.
[15:56] ---
    Astral Line?
[15:58] ---
    Right, it flows very far away,
[16:01] ---
    and is made up of the source of all life.
[16:06] ---
    You might be able to
    call it fragments of life force.
[16:10] ---
    Those fragments fall
    to the Earth, combine with a life,
[16:15] ---
    become a soul, and are born.
[16:18] ---
    And a soul whose life has
    ended goes back into the Heavens,
[16:23] ---
    returns to being a fragment,
    and goes back into the great river.
[16:28] ---
    They say that this giant cycle has been
    continuing on this planet for billions of years.
[16:35] ---
    Then, if we go there,
    we can meet people who have died?
[16:39] ---
    I wonder?
[16:40] ---
    Actually, I'm just repeating
    what I heard someone else say.
[16:53] ---
    Incredible!
[16:54] ---
    That's incredible, Chrono! It's the
    first time I've heard something like that!
[16:57] ---
    Most people don't realize it,
[17:00] ---
    but it's certain that people's
    souls continue to flow in this world.
[17:04] ---
    All right! This settles it!
[17:06] ---
    Settles what?
[17:08] ---
    Actually, it's our dream to become explorers.
[17:14] ---
    Africa, the Amazon, the Antarctic,
[17:16] ---
    the two of us will go to
    places no one else has ever been.
[17:19] ---
    And we're going to
    write our records in books!
[17:23] ---
    And if we can find the Astral Line too,
    then that would be a great discovery!
[17:32] ---
    And he was so excited.
[17:35] ---
    I think he got tired because
    he was running around too much.
[17:40] ---
    But thank goodness.
[17:42] ---
    He hasn't been talking
    about his dreams lately,
[17:45] ---
    so I thought that he
    might have given up on them.
[17:48] ---
    Since he started
    being able to use his power,
[17:50] ---
    he's been prone to getting sick,
    and his fits have gotten worse.
[17:56] ---
    It's strange, isn't it?
[17:58] ---
    Joshua can't heal his
    own injuries or sicknesses.
[18:04] ---
    Chrono, I'd rather
    become a doctor than an explorer.
[18:10] ---
    For Joshua's sake?
[18:11] ---
    Yeah.
[18:14] ---
    You're so kind.
[18:16] ---
    But I wonder if it's impossible.
    There's no way for me to become one.
[18:19] ---
    God is pretty unfair, isn't he?
[18:22] ---
    Chrono, keep this
    a secret from Joshua, okay?
[18:26] ---
    Okay.
[18:27] ---
    Thank you.
[18:33] ---
    Go, go! Go, go!
[18:33] ---
    Just a little more! Go for it, Chrono!
[18:37] ---
    You did it!
[18:39] ---
    Rosette!
[18:52] ---
    Chrono!
[19:12] ---
    Why? Why am I so warm?
[19:17] ---
    It's just like lying in the sun.
[19:20] ---
    I'd like to stay like this forever.
[19:23] ---
    Forever...
[19:32] ---
    But what is this?
[19:35] ---
    Is someone watching me?
[19:46] ---
    What's wrong, Rosette?
[19:48] ---
    He...
[19:50] ---
    Joshua decided by himself!
[19:55] ---
    There are some minor formalities,
    so I'll come again tomorrow.
[19:59] ---
    You'll be leaving in one week.
[20:01] ---
    Until then, it would be best
    to take it easy and recuperate.
[20:04] ---
    Yes, Sir.
[20:06] ---
    We won't know until
    we do a full examination,
[20:09] ---
    but it looks like the power is
    putting a strain on your body.
[20:13] ---
    But why, all of a sudden?
[20:18] ---
    She's strong.
[20:23] ---
    Always energetic and running around,
    shouting out at the top of her loud voice.
[20:30] ---
    But she's gentle, just to me.
[20:34] ---
    She's the kind of
    person who never holds back,
[20:37] ---
    but it's been so tough for me.
[20:39] ---
    That's why I don't
    want her worrying so much.
[20:46] ---
    Minister...
[20:48] ---
    If I go, will I be able to become strong?
[20:56] ---
    Rosette...
[21:05] ---
    What's wrong?
[21:07] ---
    Chrono!
[21:07] ---
    Stay back!
[21:09] ---
    You mustn't come any closer, Rosette!
[21:12] ---
    Yo, Chrono.
[21:15] ---
    Long time no see. Have you been well?
[21:20] ---
    Aion!
[21:24] ---
    Let's do it together again, Chrono.
[21:37] ---
    It's because I think I love you
[21:44] ---
    That I get hurt and I get bewildered
[21:50] ---
    When our cold cheeks met, a heart was born
[22:04] ---
    I always want to see you right away
[22:12] ---
    I love you so much
    I end up not being able to talk

[22:18] ---
    How can I see gentleness?
[22:25] ---
    Hold me more tightly,
    I believe in your warm heart

[22:37] ---
    Farewell, solitaire, I go to tomorrow
[23:01] ---
    Look, Rosette!
    This is my power! I'm one of the Chosen!

[23:05] ---
    Joshua, what are you saying?!
[23:08] ---
    Why are you looking at me like that?
[23:11] ---
    Stop it! Stop it! Stop the noise!
[23:14] ---
    Yo, Chrono. How about
    we have some fun together again?

[23:18] ---
    Answer me! What did you do to Joshua?!
[23:21] ---
    Next episode, "Horn."
[23:22] ---
    Rosette Christopher,
    I will make a contract with you.

[23:27] ---
    Horn
[23:29] ---
