Summary: They finish the ritual and nothing happens.

A/N: Thanks to jennukes and starrylizard for the look through.

Sam finishes the ritual, Dean stops in his tracks, and nothing happens.

"Son of a bitch…why didn't this work?"

"I dunno, Dean," Sam replies, flicking through the notes he's made and the pages of the ritual. "Oh, huh…" He cross-references a couple of pages and nods. "I think you need to walk counter-clockwise instead of clockwise."

Dean raises an eyebrow in his 'oh, really?' gesture. "Always knew that the lefty loosey rule was universal." He stalks over to Sam and thrusts the cloak he was wearing at Sam's chest. "Your turn to look like an idiot, seeing as how it comes so naturally."

With a sigh, Sam hands him the book, dons the cloak and starts walking a circle, counter-clockwise. Dean laughs as Sam flaps his arms like a chicken, and snaps some photos with his phone. It's not Dean's fault that Sam isn't as devious as him.

Of course, it's not Sam's fault that his legs are longer then Dean's, either.
