Easton nearly lost his balance and fell into his own trap. Fortunately, he was quick enough to steady himself at the critical moment. As he regained his footing, a look of relief washed over his face, a reaction which Danny, of course, instantly noticed.

After all, Danny possessed extraordinary abilities; he could tell at a glance that there was a trap right where Easton was standing—and that Easton had been the one to set it.

"Snake! There’s a snake!" Danny suddenly yelled.

Easton was terrified of snakes, and the shock caused him to step wrong and spring the trap he had laid. He had crafted this trap with wooden jaws. Although not as deadly as a metal trap designed to snap shut on a wild animal's leg, it still hurt considerably when it clamped onto his foot.
