I can see it now. They run back to teacher.
"You ran from a cute little turtle head pokin out from behind mr house husband?"
"It wasn't just a turtlehead master, it was a giant demon turtle, comin out of the water."
"What's a matter, afraid of a poo in the loo?"
"It was bigger'n all three of us."
"So you ran off like little girls?"
"You would've too master. It was enormous! It was gonna eat us. We're lucky it went for househusband first."
If it does end up cute, I bet their master slaps them around.
