Episode 13 - Older Sister

Rosette, Chrno, and Azmaria get on a train, headed to San Francisco. Back at the Order, the other sisters worry about Rosette and Azmaria. Sister Kate tells them not to worry, but to pray. When the train stops at a station, Azmaria wakes up. They watch as a mother and her child come in, searching for a seat. Rosette offers them two of hers. As Chrno is standing up, he senses something and turns to see Satella. When Rosette hears that Satella has a whole car to herself, she moves everyone down to Satella's car. When the woman offers her muffins to thank her, Rosette opens them and finds a note from Joshua. It tells her to come to the cafeteria car by herself.

Rosette runs to the dining car where she finds the mother sitting there. As she is walking forward, everyone greets her. Rosette sees the Puppeteer manipulating everyone again. Rosette talks to the mother, who tells her Joshua is doing well but suffering from the noise in his head. The woman then snaps her fingers and the dining car becomes separated from the main train. She then invites Rosette to come visit Joshua. Chrno jumps through the roof as the train runs into a barrier, releasing all the puppets from the Puppeteer. However, Chrno notices that the watch around Rosette's neck is missing.

Rizeel takes the watch, along with Azmaria. She orders Rosette to shoot Chrno. Chrno tells her to shoot him and she does. Chrno goes flying back over Azmaria, knocking the two guys over that were holding her. Azmaria draws out a vial of holy water and splashes the men and the spider web above them. When Rosette runs over to Chrno, she finds that he is okay. He has also retrieved the watch. Rosette, Chrno, and Azmaria go into the baggage cart, looking for the Puppeteer. The Puppeteer captures Rosette, dragging her through the roof, then separates her car from the rest of the train. Rosette fires on the Puppeteer, but she knocks her off the train. She pulls Rosette back up to the roof, then releases her from the web. The Puppeteer slashes Rosette, who tries to fire her gun but is out of ammo.

When Rosette hears the Puppeteer talk about Aion, she realizes that the Puppeteer loves Aion. She uses that knowledge to her benefit, by distracting the Puppeteer with words until she can load her last bullet. She shoots at the Puppeteer, breaking off one of her limbs. Satella and Chrno show up on one of Satella's beasts. Rosette jumps on, but the Puppeteer also jumps on. Rosette grabs the fragment of limb and stabs the Puppeteer with it, who then falls into a chasm.
