The next room seems to be a bit of a mess, odd machinery abounds, with one piece in particular dominating the room. It features a platform and a nearby access panel festooned with a keyboard and numerous switches and buttons. In front of it, there is a monitor, showing a red-headed youth who grins and issues the next challenge.
'Greetings, friends. The processing of numbers brings great joy. To prove your worth, determine these numbers.'
'There are two pairs of non-consecutive single-digit numbers. When multiplied together, they become a two-digit number, the two digits added together to create the larger of the two initial numbers. The second digit of the two-digit number is the smaller of the initial two single-digit numbers.'
'As an incorrect example, suppose the numbers are three and seven. When multiplied together, the answer (21) would add together to equal seven. And the second digit (1) would be the smaller of the initial numbers, a three.'
'Once you have discovered these four coordinates, they will guide you to your next set of instructions.'
[Just find the proper four numbers, they will mean something. When you have found it, then you will know what the next challenge will be.]

Don't tell me the sky's the limit...
Elizabeth stared at the guy. Was he serious? How was she supposed to know the answer to these stupid math riddles?
Shikarama entered the room and was oon joined by Hariko and then Logan. They listened to the instructions, and advanced on the platform. Shikarama moved to the keyboard, and began to think it over, running through possible pairs for a few moments, Logan and hariko followed, and he assumed they were thinking as well. Shikarama, finding the first of the two, typed them into the keyboard. Logan moved beside him a minute or so later, and typed in the next two. 60143 SP/chakra

Hariko Mizu, The Cold Demon
Hariko entered the room, set with the platform, the picture of the tomboyish girl, finding Shikarama already there, and was soon joined by Logan. They all approached, Hariko behind them both. Shikarama displayed his quick mind, typing in the first coordinates. After several minutes of thinking, Logan moved in, placing the second set of numbers. Chakra total: 29822

((Appearance: He has very large blue Byakugan eyes which appear to lack pupils. He wears a cloak, pants, gloves, a shirt, four scarfs, and a mask. they are all black and made of special materials. These clothes make it so only his eyes can be seen.)) Logan found shikarama and Hariko already in the room, computer panel and platform set up, with one of the other proctors there, watching them from a screen and giving them instructions. the challenge was to find two pairs of numbers, each meant to be coordinates, to advance. They moved to the keyboard, and in a matter of seconds, Shikarama figured the first pair and typed. Logan thought about some other possible pairs of numbers, eventually coming up with two more and putting them in. The three of them now waited to see if they had chosen right. 60918 SP/chakra Demon Chakra: Closed Eyes- 100,000. 60018/60918

[Just a reminder. If your character has not been mentioned as getting past the door challenge, then they
DO NOT KNOW
about any of the subsequent chambers. Currently, the only ones who managed that are Logan, Shikarama, Hariko and Rook.
Rei, Sano, Hareo, Kazama, Elizabeth, Saden, Doran, Olin and Render have not, thus they are still in the chamber of doors, and do not know about the riddles, or the math puzzle!
I didn't want to put deathtraps in this, but if people are going to try to cheat...]
As Rook passed through the door, he notices he completely passed through the door, and into a odd room. It seemed a few others had also passed through the door, like Logan, Shikarama and Hariko. He had seen Logan and Shikarama before, but Hariko was a new face. He just grinned, this was getting easier and easier. With a small laugh, he gave a wave to Logan and Shikarama, then took their place. He listened to the boy/girl person explain it, and it just went in one ear, and out the other. He just gave a smirk.
"I don't understand this at all." He said in his usual dark tone. It didn't matter though, he just decided to do what was best. His scythe. Taking it off his back, he decided to let his fate to his scythe. He just banged the machine with his scythe, and let it punch in some numbers.

Sano to [Roll] door. Standing in front of it he would stare a it for a second, and then knock on it. Hearing nothing he would open it and peek his head in... Suddenly there was a sickening crunch as he broke his finger and a rather unpleasant sound as he tore it off completely. And tossed it through the door. It would be humorous if his finger made it through and he didn't... then again... if the finger made it through Sano could feasibly regenerate his entire body off of that finger and leave this body behind as a husk... then again... maybe he couldn't it's not like he had tried that before. but more than likely this finger would come flying out and pop him in the chest.
Hareo would go stare to the wall... now this was just annoying... he was going to have to check all of these doors one at a time... and likely it would result in there being a specific thing that needed to be done in order to pass... he was tempted to just break all the other doors leaving only one option. With that he walked into the first door.
Rei however simply picked another door the door with the crowd applauding, the last door.
[Once more, several examinees chose doors to try, disappearing into their shadowed depths. A moment later, Hareo re-emerged from the door that led back to the banquet. Rei, however, was nowhere to be seen, she had found her door. Likewise, Sano's finger remained vanished, it didn't come tumbling back into the door chamber.]

Saden Zoto ________________________________ Hidden Void-Chunin-Scythe ________________________________ Saden sat back an observed as the others came in an out of the doors, progressively getting smaller. Saden thought it over or a while befor walking towards the door with the crowd. If his idea was correct, he would see what was on the other side.

[Saden would pass through the door, like so many others. And like an ever-increasing number of them, he would not return to the chamber of doors. He had found the right door, and proceeded to the next chamber.]

Saden Zoto ________________________________ Hidden Void-Chunin-Scythe ________________________________ Saden stepped into the door and soon found himself face to face with a mysterious man. After being barraged with riddles, Saden thought for a moment before answering each one. Granted, he was still clueless on half of them, but hopefully he did well enough to move on.

Sano's finger crept forward independent of his body and simply passed the man up, after all it was a finger, it had no ears. Sano himself went to enter curious to find his finger.
Hareo's face was blank... he was beyond anger now. He simply went to the third door and entered there.
Rei however stepped toward the man, with a curious trill she looked him up and down, such a shame the man looked quite fit... a real shame he had absolutely no humanity in him, after all there wasn't even so much as a trace scent of desire on him, she hated these types the most, far too possessed to know to love her. She opened her mouth and proceeded the answers were basic... she endeavored to answer them all wrong on purpose... if the man would do nothing for her she would do nothing for him.
[Hareo, Elizabeth, and the rest of Sano moved through the doors they had chosen. Hareo and Elizabeth would wind up back where they had started again, while Sano would follow his finger through to the next chamber.]

Shikarama Nara, The Dedicated Genius
Shikarama examined the access and machines around them, trying to figure out the meaning of the coordinates he found, and how he could use the access panel with his numbers to direct them to the next instructions. 60143 SP/chakra

Elizabeth felt frustration build. Was she meant for this? How could she do this? She'd been mislead. These were supposed to be easier. Clutching her fists, she stormed into door J.
