00:00Children of Atlantis. Werewolves in the Andes Creepypasta 50. Confessions between a
00:06A werewolf and a human. The sun was beginning to descend over the Bogota horizon.
00:12Tinting the sky with warm shades of orange and pink. The shadows lengthened inside.
00:18from Orichalco's headquarters in Colombia. Just hours after the separatist's capture in
00:23Bluefields, Drex, and Fabián had been extracted from Nicaragua in a lightning operation, and the
00:29Prisoner transported under complete secrecy to Bogotá. The new headquarters of Orichalco Colombia
00:35It was equipped with state-of-the-art technology. It functioned as a military fort designed for
00:42respond to any threat, under the orders of Archcount Serraf Bambertoque in second place.
00:48Vampires moved through the corridors like soldiers on a well-arranged chessboard,
00:53But the recent break with the Colombian vampire ministry still left a fissure.
00:57subtle in the loyalty of some units, a situation that the new
01:02general director of Orichalco Colombia, Tatiana González. Drex was sitting in front of a window,
01:09His gaze lost in the cityscape tinged with twilight. His mind, usually focused on the
01:16The next mission had veered into darker territory. Memories of Carolina,
01:21His lost love, murdered by Soltgar. Thoughts that mingled with his present
01:28hybrid, as if he still hadn't fully accepted who he really was, a relentless hunter,
01:33and a werewolf. A soft voice pulled him from his trance. Drex, said Maria Gonzalez with a mix
01:41of warmth and precision that only someone with his gift of clairvoyance could convey.
01:46Maria, the best clairvoyant in Latin America, knew more than she let on. Not only because of her visions,
01:54But it was also because she knew her sister Tatiana intimately. And she sensed that something was changing.
02:00between her and Drex, something she needed to bring up. Drex turned his head toward her. His eyes
02:07The darkness reflected inner storms she didn't know how to put into words. Maria sat down beside her,
02:14Without pressuring, but firmly. I know you and Tati have been different lately, he said bluntly.
02:22But with tenderness. She's my sister, I love her more than anything. But you're also my friend.
02:28And I know you're carrying more than you let on. Drex nodded, silently acknowledging the truth.
02:35I didn't look for it, neither of us did. He finally answered, his voice hoarse. I don't want him to come out
02:42"Hurt," Maria continued. "Tati has always been strong, almost indomitable. But if this isn't real,
02:49If it's not mutual, she'll shut down emotionally. And she'll do it in a way that could destroy her.
02:55Inside. I don't want to see her break. Drex held her gaze. There was no judgment in Maria's eyes.
03:03"Just genuine concern," Maria said seriously. "I don't know what's going to happen between Tatiana and me. We haven't..."
03:11I've spoken about this clearly. But I will. Whatever comes, I'll tell you myself. I'm not going
03:18I'll hide. And I won't hurt her. The words sank in. Maria sighed, relieved, and began
03:26A weary smile. That's all I wanted to hear, she said softly. I just want us both
03:33Find what you're looking for. Together, or not. The door opened. Tatiana and Fabián entered.
03:40accompanied by Bambertocken, whose expression remained inscrutable. The planning meeting
03:47It was over. It was time to inform Drex and Maria. Tatiana, with the natural authority that she
03:54He defined, he took the floor. We have an operation underway to ensure the Archcount's visit to
04:00The Vatican, he explained, laying out a tactical plan on the table. It's a volatile area. The Vatican
04:07It can turn hostile in seconds, especially considering the presence of the vampiric prisoner.
04:14He turned to Drex. You will be Bambertocken's personal bodyguard. You won't lose sight of him. Your only
04:21Their lives will be our priority. Fabián, María, and I, he added, pointing to them, will form the second ring of
04:29Security. Any threat that gets too close will be neutralized. Furthermore, the
04:35The orichalcum squadron I personally selected will provide us with cover. They are elite. Fabián took the
04:41The word came with a hint of discomfort in her voice. "There's something else," she said. "Something that could complicate things."
04:48Things. The archcount plans to request a pardon for the prisoner. Maria frowned.
04:55"Sir. Absolution?" he repeated. "Are you going to deconvert him? Why?" "It's not just that," replied Fabián.
05:04Bambertocken wants to present his case directly to the Council of Vampire Elders, which will meet in
05:10Rome next week. He plans to make moves on both fronts. That same day, Drex looked at him as if
05:18They just spat fire in his face. What the hell is he planning? I don't know, Drex. Fabian replied.
05:26Annoying. But if he's risking so much in such a short time, it has to be something really, really big.
05:33Maria made a subtle gesture to her sister. It was almost imperceptible, but Tatiana picked up on it instantly.
05:40Without saying a word, the clairvoyant approached Fabian and gently took his arm.
05:46Excuse me, Father Fabián. When we spoke at my house, I was somewhat distressed and we couldn't
05:51Let's introduce ourselves properly. I'm Maria Gonzalez, she said kindly. Hello, Maria. Yes, of course I remember you.
06:00I regret my attitude that day. How can I help you, my child? the priest replied solemnly.
06:08Father, if you don't mind, I'd like to ask your advice about something that's been troubling me. But I would prefer
06:15Let's do it in private. Fabiana smiled slightly. I understand. Drex, Tatiana. We'll leave.
06:23"We'll talk later," he announced, and left with Maria. The room fell silent. Drex and Tatiana,
06:31Now alone, they felt the stillness weigh more than any previous conversation. They both knew
06:38that this moment had to come, but now that they were face to face, it seemed that everything was not
06:43The words filled every corner. Tatiana was the first to break the silence. "Drex," she said calmly,
06:51though imbued with that characteristic firmness of hers. We are not children. Do we know what has been...
06:57What's happening between us? What's been growing. But I also know that your heart hasn't closed yet.
07:04The whole story with Carolina. Drex lowered his gaze for a moment. A pang of guilt crossed his mind.
07:11His chest. He couldn't deny that Carolina still lived in his memories, though more like an open wound.
07:17"That's like a latent love," Tatiana finally said, raising her gaze to meet hers.
07:24I never thought I'd feel anything for anyone again after her. But you, you've made something
07:31I awoke within myself. I don't know how to fully cope with it, but on this mission to Nicaragua, I had time to
07:37I thought about it. And I came to something very clear. I want you to be a part of my life, and I want to be able to be a part of it.
07:43From yours. I just ask for a little time to organize my thoughts and wrap up what I need to wrap up.
07:50Tatiana looked at him silently for a few seconds. Then she smiled, with that mixture of determination and tenderness that
07:57Only she knew how to balance. I must admit I didn't expect to hear that from you, Drex Hall Crux, she said in a tone
08:04Soft, almost flirtatious. But, I like what you're saying. I don't really know how to handle this, but I also want to
08:13That you're in my life, and I'm in yours. I understand about Carolina. Don't rush things. Take your time.
08:20whatever you need. She took a deep breath, as if filling herself with certainty. Then, she took a step toward him and approached.
08:27enough to make the air between them thick. But remember something, he added,
08:33With a sparkle in your eyes, you owe me a date when all this madness is over. Flowers, chocolates
08:40and a lovely romantic dinner. Is that clear? Drex looked at her with a mixture of surprise and admiration.
08:47A smile escaped her without her being able to stop it. Tatiana, in her direct and fierce style, had
08:53Completely disarmed. Perfectly clear, Director, he replied, his voice heavy with relief,
09:00and something deeper. I promise it will be an unforgettable date. She took him by the clothes,
09:07She stood on her tiptoes to reach his height and kissed him on the cheek. Then she walked away with
09:13A mischievous smile he'd never seen before. "I'm glad to hear that," she said as she left, without looking back.
