Well, here's the answer to your question:
Chapter 4 -- A Noob in Danger
The first thing to greet me is two fighting high levels. Both of the combatants have bright blue armor like Wolfbane, and they seem to be fussing over the skin of a cow. The hide is being stretched as they tug and pull, back and forth.
“Hey…guys,” I say hesitantly. I’m half-afraid they’ll knock me over with the cowhide.
“Oh, hey look, Monty, it’s a noob.” One of them lets go of the skin and the other high level goes flying. “What’s your name, noob?”
“My name’s Freak449, but you can call me Freak.”
“Nice to meet you,” says the first one. Monty is lying dazed, paces away. “Oy, Monty, come take a look at this kid.”
“I think Monty is a bit stunned,” I point out. Suddenly Monty leaps to his feet and whips off his helm. I’m met by a head of bright, orange hair and a dazzling smile.
“Monty is not stunned,” Monty says, “only slightly bewildered. Kenshin, you shouldn't have let go so suddenly.”
“Sorry,” Kenshin apologizes. The high level turns to me. “My full name is Kenshin345, and my friend there is Monty90. We love noobs.”
“You love them?” I repeat. Um…
“We’re here to help.” Monty grins at me as if he had just told me a fabulous joke. “We can provide cowhide, bones, and cooked meat, all for the measly price of 1gp…each.”
“I don’t have any money,” I say. Monty and Kenshin both tilt their heads at me with a frightening togetherness.
“Then why are you freakin’ wasting my time?” Monty cries. The high level doesn’t look happy.
“A noob who can’t pay, is a noob who won’t last a day.” Kenshin giggles. “I rhymed, Monty. I can’t believe it.”
“Yeah, yeah, tell it to your mother.”
“I did not give you leave to speak of my mother in such a manner.”
“Sometimes I think you’re from another planet altogether.”
“Are you accusing my mother of being an alien?”
“Uh…guys?” I interrupt. They both glower at me. “How do you kill a cow?”
