User:Rhodri45/Juan Dirty Sanchez

Juan "Dirty" Sanchez was known as the "Dirty Sanchez" in the olden days, as Mexican folk-lore demonstrates him to be the one true vanquisher of "El Chupacabra".

Early Life
Little is known about his early life, but it is said that Sanchez had been an excellent hunter from the early days. He was born in a small farmhouse on a farm outside of Veracruz, Mexico in 1762. Sanchez grew up part of a small family. His mother died during childbirth as she was giving birth to his youngest sibling. When he was a mere 6 years old, his father had taught him to load and fire a musket in order to fend off coyotes intruding on his farm land. He was homeschooled by his father on the family farm. He had two sisters. His older sister, Maria Juanita Sanchez, acted as his mother, helping his father tend to the crops. His younger sister, Juanita Maria Sanchez, was killed at an unknown early age when Sanchez was only 9 years old, by the one and only "El Chupacabra". This event set in motion a chain of events that would forever change Mexico, for he had vowed to hunt and kill El Chupacabra if it was the last thing he did. When Juan Sanchez turned 17, he left home to begin his lifetime hunt.

The Great Hunt
Throughout the rest of Juan Sanchez's life, he traveled all over Mexico in search of El Chupacrabra. He moved from town to town, trailing the scent of the evil Chupacabra. Every town he went to, he had gathered more evidence, hearing more stories of how El Chupacabra ruined more families and lives when it attacked the towns' small children. Juan Sanchez vowed to avenge the country folk of Mexico. Every town he visited, he would provide kindness and help to revitalize towns after the devastating attacks. He would use his vast knowledge of farm techniques/equipment to reinvigorate their crops, teach men and children how to kill coyotes, and things of the like. He became known as the "Dirty Sanchez", as Sanchez's hands would constantly be dirty with the blood of sheep and coyotes, and the dirt of the farmlands as Juan helped so many towns. Word had spread of his mission throughout all of south-east Mexico, and he gained support in his quest to slay the deadly Chupacrabra.

The Final Battle
On May 3rd, 1798, Juan "Dirty" Sanchez encountered a trail of beast-tracks that seemed a bit odd. He and his team of volunteers had been following the scent of the Chupacabra for years now. At this point, they believed they neared the den of El Chupacabra. Sanchez's team of banditos laid in wait for El Chupacabra to come home.

Early in the morning on May 4th, 1798, as the team was asleep, the Watchman had failed to sense El Chupacabra coming home. It snuck up on the team, and first took out the watchman. The cries of the watchman had woken the rest of the team, who then grabbed their weapons in preparation for battle. Juan Sanchez ordered his men to take cover, but the Watchman's brother reacted in haste. He charged El Chupacabra in order to save his already dead brother. El Chupacabra took his chance and killed the brother within seconds, ripping his body in two. Juan Sanchez ordered a series of tactical attacks on El Chupacabra by his team. This began to weaken the Chupacabra.

The battle continued for hours, and by the afternoon of May 4th, 1798, Sanchez's men had all succumbed to El Chupacabra's wrath. Only Sanchez remained, with El Chupacabra at his feet, dead. The price Sanchez paid to slay the beast was 10 men, but it would no longer destroy the Mexican countryside.

Later Life
On May 5th, 1798, many more crops grew, and the country was saved. Juan Sanchez fed all the Mexican Countryside's children with delicious crops brought by his amazing ability to slay the beast of Mexico. May 5th become a national holiday in Mexico (Cinco de Mayo) to celebrate the bountiful crops the death of the beast had brought.

Juan died in his farmhouse alone in May 1799 of the flu. He had no family as he had dedicated his life to slaying El Chupacabra.
