He walked into his parents house and went to the basement. It was an area that he was familiar with, this is where he took his victims most of the time, but he used IERL to sink beneath the surface of the basement. Sinking deep into the earth he would eventually find himself falling to land on the floor of a reasonably well hidden underground room.
There was no oxygen in here, as evidenced by those dead bodies who had been alive when he'd brought them down. People brought whatever oxygen they had with them, that was about it. The woman, a wife of a man he had killed and already turned into a puppet lay there, a doll hung on the wall reminding Junan of his origins, waiting for him to find the power that it deserved, another body lay beneath it a young man.
It was this young man who Junan would be turning into a puppet today. But the woman would be coming of use as well. He had found something in her, something he had desired for his own use.
Strangely enough, though Junan didn't treat women and men differently in most respects... he found both attractive, he would use and abuse them however he wished, and he had no qualms with causing any kind of harm on either... he never considered them for his puppets. In his mind he was male, and though his puppets were mere pawns, he had decided over the few years he had been a puppet that he could never immitate them. Thus his puppet mastery wouldn't work.
He relied on his skill to imitate, to replicate, and to be those he turned into his toys, or at least be able to do a decent job for someone who wasn't intimately knowledgeable of their finer details. It had taken Junan years of study and observation to imitate Junan, he had gotten into this character so much that he for all intents and purposes was Junan. The only thing which had seeped through into this character was his own desires to cause others pain.
Other than that one aspect of his original being, he was the cocky, extravagant, shinobi that Junan had always been.
He operated on the male first turning him into a puppet.
It was a complex and delicate procedure, he skinned the man first, removing any non-skin chunks from the flesh and then placed this in a chakra bath. It would remain in there for the 24 hours or more that it would take him to prepare everything else. After cutting the skin off he would create a mold of the body using earth jutsu, and then using paper jutsu combined with wood jutsu he would line the inside of the mold.
This would form the shape of the puppet, but after he had begun this process he would then need to put the mold to the side and begin the far more technical job of taking the body apart. He would need to identify the bloodline or other special ability that the individual had and take it from their physical being. Thankfully he tended to identify this aspect before he took the body in the first instance.
The puppet master he had been taught by had gone over the different body structures he would commonly find, pointing out that everyone had their own variations so one could never go into two of the same clan and assume the same structures to their special abilities. Junan had found this teaching had unlocked certain memories... but they weren't his... it was knowledge more than memories, he couldn't remember images, but he could remember the experience of taking the abilities. It was unusual, but it was something he learned quickly.
This took the longest time, everything after this would be fine. Once he took the body apart and had what looked almost (in this case) like a spiderweb of thin chakra lines he then had to prepare the housing. Spreading the spiderweb safely on the side and allowing it to dry he went about sawing and polishing the wooden surface of the puppet. It needed to be smooth, perfectly smooth, but he had to also be careful with how much work was done on it.
Once he had each piece in the shape that would allow the puppet to move, he then inserted the abilities of the previous user. He usually kept things in similar positions as they had been in the person themselves as they had lived. But sometimes anywhere would do. After this he sealed it inside by attaching soft fixtures at the joints. These allowed the puppet to retain its shape at the joints so that the skin didn't simply collapse into a cavity. It helped protect the skin from damage caused by pinching between two pieces of wood, and also gave it a much more realistic finish.
Finally the skin would be placed on top of the puppet, the chakra bath having restored its life it would be more pliable and affected by medical jutsu. He would heal the skin cells a the joins instead of sewing, giving the skin a look like it had come off all in a single piece, or rather like it had never been removed at all. In addition it meant that the skin would stretch and fit to the shape of the puppet, which happened to be the same size as the original wearer.
Next came the eyes which were a carefully crafted crystal jutsu and placed in the sockets, allowing Junan to see through the puppets as he controlled them.
He attached the puppet strings to it and activated it... pouring chakra through the canister that held only the powers that the man had once had inside him. The demonic aura felt almost palpable from the puppet, and Junan smiled.
Then it was the woman's turn. Extracting her abilities, placing them in a canister... and then installing them in himself. He would likely change this in future... but for now this was going to be fun.
