A/N: Because sometimes, things aren't as straightforward as fix-fics would like them to be. In which Jiraiya teaches Naruto a valuable lesson.
"Naruto, you see this scroll?"
"Yes, perv-sensei!"
"Right. I'm going to seal a kunai into it."
"Why?"
"To teach you something."
"What are you teaching me?"
"If you'd just shut up and listen to me, we could get to that part, ok?"
"Right."
"Now, you see the scroll and kunai next to each other, and now - *poof* - the kunai is sealed away in the storage scroll. You with me so far?"
"Sure, no problem. The kunai is sealed away in the scroll."
"Now, is this a scroll or a kunai?"
"It's a scroll."
"And where's the kunai? Just point to it."
*Naruto points at the scroll*
"Is it there?"
"Yes, that's right. Excellent! You're a fast learner. Now, if this isn't a kunai, where's the kunai?"
"...I don't get it."
"Out of all the things that exist in the world, which is the most likely to be the kunai that I sealed away?"
*Naruto points to the scroll*
"Is it that?"
"Yes! Yes, exactly. Now what do we learn from this?"
"I'm not sure, perv-sensei."
"We learn that sealing is bloody complicated and simple metaphors will get you into trouble really quickly!"
"Right!"
"Good job learning for today! Let's go eat dinner!"
"Sounds good to me."
