Biography[edit | edit source]

Whittaker: "You're the famous de la Cruz kid? You don't look like much."

Charlotte: "Yeah, I know. It's the hair."

—Whittaker and Charlotte during the encounter at Estadio Azteca, 2016.^[src]^-[m]

In 2016, after Ortega Sanchez learned about Arturo Viera's attempt to capture an Assassin team targeted by the Templars, he and a strike team led by Whittaker left in a helicopter for the Estadio Azteca of Mexico City. Once there, the Templars killed Viera's girl and injured the kingpin using a machinegun, with Whittaker personally finishing him off. After a brief fight between Whittaker and an injured Charlotte de la Cruz, the Templars surrounded the injured Assassins.^[1]

Believing that the Templars would do anything to capture her alive, de la Cruz threatened to kill herself if they did not let her friends go. However, Sanchez refused, stating that bringing home the head of the famous Galina Voronina would be enough. De la Cruz then offered the location of a secret meeting of Erudito's leaders planned to take place three days later, and this time Sanchez accepted her offer. He gave her one day to look into the Animus for an answer and reminded her not to betray their pact, before he and Whittaker left in the helicopter with their men.^[1]

The next day, as de la Cruz was about to surrender herself to Sanchez with the promised intel, the exchange was interrupted by Viera's men who wanted to avenge their boss, prompting the Assassin to flee during the fight. Whittaker was not present during the assault and thus survived.^[2]

However, Sanchez took precautions and had discreetly put a tracker on her, following de la Cruz to Erudito's hidden headquarters in Argentina. Using a warship, the Templars led by Sanchez, Whittaker, and Team Epsilon assaulted the remote island on which the base was located and killed most members of Erudito. Sent after de la Cruz by Sanchez, Whittaker hunted her in the island forest using the tracker and eventually found her. They fought until Charlotte knocked him out using a tree branch. Shortly after, Sanchez arrived with two guards, only to be gunned down by an Assassin helicopter that came to Charlotte's rescue.^[3]
