(Daphne's POV)
Daphne couldn't help staring at the little dog that, in the course of several years, had somehow become a part of the family. But something wasn't right. Mr. Crane had told her that Eddie was merely tranquilized which certainly explained the way Eddie was just lying there on the hardwood floor. But suddenly she had a flash; a vision that made her gasp.
Eddie was lying in the street, lifeless as the driver of the car sped off, the leash fell from Daphne's hand and her hand went to her trembling mouth. Mr. Crane's best friend, gone in an instant and it was her fault. If she hadn't offered to take Eddie for a walk- Sadness came over her as she crumbled into a ball beside the little dog, sobbing into her hands. "Eddie I'm so sorry! I-."
A warm hand on her shoulder caused her to gasp and turn around, her heart warming at the sight of her friend. "Dr. Crane…"
"You're crying… what's wrong? What is it?"
She looked at Niles, his handsome face blurred by her sadness and then back at the lifeless dog. "I'm so sorry! I never meant-."
"It's all right, Daphne. He's fine. Remember, Dad said he's just tranquilized. He'll be fine when he wakes up."
Her eyes widened in disbelief. "What?"
"Dad said-."
And then suddenly it all came rushing back to her. Of course… How could she have been so stupid? It had all been a vision… a horrible vision that she prayed would never come true. But it seemed so real. Her trembling hand reached for the sweet Jack Russell terrier and began stroking his fur. Suddenly Eddie lifted his head and then stood, happily licking her hand. A wave of relief washed over her. "You're all right… Thank God. I don't know what we'd do without you!"
And when she turned to Niles she saw the familiar concern in his eyes. "Daphne, are you all right?"
"I'm sorry Dr. Crane. I- I don't know what came over me. I know you don't believe in me visions, but this was so real! I-I thought…"
Niles smiled. "He's fine. And it looks to me like he's glad that you're all right, too."
She looked down to see Eddie still licking her hand and she scratched his soft fur. But it was Niles whom she owed the most gratitude. She hugged him tightly, smiling at his surprised expression. "Thank you, Dr. Crane."
