Trini was doing the best she can to stay calm, but her resolve was quickly melting and she felt the air leaving her lungs.
With her hands up in the air and her body shaking with fear, the original yellow ranger was facing something she never felt before: real life terror.
Vivian was pointing her .38 caliber right at her as they were standing on her porch. They barely noticed the neighborhood was gathering around Trini's home, keeping their reasonable distance away from the property, talking amongst themselves and trying to figure out what they were gonna do. Were they gonna trying to intervene before someone gets seriously hurt or worse, killed?
No one knew what they were gonna do but they do know one thing: Vivian has clearly lost her damn mind!
"Vivian, please don't do this. Why don't we go inside, sit down and talk this out like reasonable adults?" Trini suggested, tears still brimming in her brown eyes.
Vivian just shook her head and kept her finger on the trigger. "Talking is overrated, bitch! No, I'm gonna fucking kill you!"
"Vivian, this is ridiculous and we both know it! Taking me out won't solve anything!" Trini screamed.
"Shut up! Just shut the fuck up! None of this would be happening if you just kept your distance away from Russell! Why did you have to steal him away from me?! Why?!" Vivian screamed, her voice dripping with so much venom.
Trini's eyes were widened in shock and disbelief. "For the last time, I didn't steal Russell away from you! He pursued me! I turned him down, but he kept persisting and persisting until he finally wore me down and I agreed to go out with him! Why can't you get that through that thick fucking skull of yours and realize that I've moved on! Russell doesn't want me anymore! He made that perfectly clear when he jilted me at my wedding and announced that he still loved you! Now, please, give me the gun, Vivian! As far as I'm concerned, you need some serious help!"
"I need help?! I NEED HELP?! The only thing I need is Russell, but that won't be happening since he dumped me!" Vivian screeched, her arm shaking furiously. Trini could tell she was falling apart, so she attempted to take the gun away without getting shot, but Vivian quickly gathered her composure and stepped closer to the Vietnamese woman, glaring at her. Trini had to hold in her breath with she felt the barrel of the gun being pointed right against her chest.
"Vivian, please, don't pull the trigger," Trini begged, tears now streaming down her face.
Vivian didn't even budge. She just shook her head slowly. "I'm sorry, but you leave me no other choice. I want you out of Russell's life and I want you gone. You ruined my career and you ruined my life and the only way I can get it all back is if I put a bullet in your heart. I'm gonna personally make sure no one misses you!"
"Even if you do kill me, what makes you think Russell will come back to you?" Trini asked, which caused Vivian to snap. With her free hand, she backhanded her enemy across her face, then she grabbed her arm and pulled her right in front of several spectators, who were trying to descend up the steps in order to diffuse the situation. However, they quickly backed away when Vivian pointed the gun right at Trini's head and wrapped her arm around her neck tightly.
"Take one more step and I won't hesitate to blow her fucking head off!" Vivian yelled, tightening her grip on the trigger.
Trini closed her tear stained eyes and hoped to God that there's a light at the end of the tunnel because things weren't definitely looking good for her right now.
Jason, help me, please! I need you, Rex! I really need you!

Jason had to hold in his breath as he was watching the news.
He held his hand right over his beating heart; which was pounding furiously against his chest and watched in pure horror as he saw Vivian holding Trini hostage in her own home. Seeing the original yellow ranger begging and pleading for her life, well, it brought tears to his eyes. He can't imagine seeing her so vulnerable, so broken, so defenseless as she was trying to calm Vivian down, but the Chinese woman was clearly unhinged and felt she has nothing else to live for.
Jason almost felt sorry for her. Almost.
Well, nothing could prepare the original leader of the power rangers of what unfolded right before his very brown eyes; seeing the woman he truly loves scared out of her goddamn mind. Not even Rita or Zedd's monsters ever scared Trini that much, but this wasn't another monster attack. This was real life and she was dealing with a life or death situation that could alter the course of her life forever.
No, scratch that, it could alter the life of all those involved forever!
He didn't care about anything else at this point. He has to go to her. He has to do something. He couldn't sit back and watch Trini get hurt; especially after everything she's been through with both Vivian and Russell putting her through so much hell. With his mind made up, he grabbed his keys and his cell phone off the table, then he stormed out of his condo; locking everything up before heading right towards his car. Just as he was about to get in, his phone rang.
"Hello?" he answered right away.
"Bro, did you watch the news?" Tommy asked on the other line.
"How could I not? I'm heading towards her house right now. Trini's gonna need all the help she could get," Jason replied as he finally got in his car and revved up the engine.
"Already ahead of you, man. Kim and I are dropping Hannah off with our neighbors, then we're heading to Angel Grove after that. I just got off the phone with Rocky and Aisha and they should be on their way soon. I tried to get in touch with Zack and Angela, but they're both out of the country and couldn't be reached," Tommy explained as he and Kim headed towards their car.
"What about Adam and Tanya? They live just a few houses down from Trini," Jason said as he started backing out of his driveway.
"I'm sure they're there already, trying to diffuse the situation. A huge crowd has gathered around Trini's house, so I doubt Vivian's gonna try to escape, even if that nutcase has a gun on her. Furthermore, I'm sure the cops are on their way, but it's gonna be hard for them to try to disburse the crowd because the entire neighborhood has surrounded her house," Tommy huffed in frustration.
"Well, that nutcase has some serious problems. I almost feel sorry for her," Jason snorted as he peeled away from his home in a haste.
"Bro, are you okay?" Tommy asked, his voice dripping with worry.
Jason sighed deeply. "I'll be fine once I get to Trini. I won't rest until I know for sure she's safe."
"She'll be fine, Jase. Trini's one tough cookie. If she can survive being dumped at her wedding, having to endure Vivian's wrath constantly and trying her damnest to move on from Russell, she can survive anything," Tommy said, trying to soothe his bro from doing something crazy.
"Tom, it's more than that. I can't imagine my life without her. I have to get to her because...I love her, man. I love her so much," Jason confessed, trying so hard not to break down and cry.
"Of course you love her, man. We all love her," Tommy said, trying to state the obvious.
Jason just sighed deeply as he reached a red light. "No, you don't understand. I love Trini like a man loves a woman. Dude, I'm in love with her."
"Wait, what? Are you really in love with her?" Tommy asked, looking astonished.
"Yeah, bro. I'm in love with her. That's why I'm trying to get to Angel Grove ASAP. Although we did confess our feelings for each other a couple of days ago, I'm gonna do my damnest to make sure she knows how much I love her! And I'm not gonna let Vivian or Russell stand in my way of being with Trinity Jade Kwan!" Jason declared before he ended the phone call and tossed his phone over his shoulder. Gripping the steering wheel tightly, he drove away in a haste when the light finally turned green.
Don't worry, Trini! I'm on my way! T-Rex is gonna save his Tiger!

Russell was beside himself as he was watching the news.
One minute, he was packing up his things and getting ready to head back to Boston. The next minute, he turned on the news to see how the weather's gonna be (since he's gonna be flying); only to come across some breaking news about Vivian losing her goddamned mind and was holding Trini hostage...by pointing the gun at the woman's head while standing on the porch!
What made it even more wild was a huge crowd was gathering around Trini's house; with several neighbors trying to pry the gun away from Vivian, but she was determined to see her plans through. She kept screaming at them to step back or else she'll blow Trini's brains out as she tightened her grip on the trigger.
Where the hell is the fucking police?!
Huffing angrily and running his fingers through his hair, he realized he had to do something. He had to put a stop to his ex-fiancee's rampage before someone really gets hurt or worse, killed. Though he still loves Trini and a tiny part of him hope she'd come to her senses and come back to him, it was pointless, anyway. She'll probably never forgive him for breaking her heart, jilting her at her wedding and for putting her through so much hell concerning Vivian.
And he couldn't really blame her.
Russell has made up his mind. Grabbing his keys off the table, he ran out of his room and decided to make a short detour to Angel Grove.
He got himself and Trini into this mess and now, it's up to him to get them out.
Before it's too late.

"I'm not gonna tell you again! Back off or I'll blow this bitch away! I'm not playing with you!" Vivian screamed, tightening her grip on Trini's neck and kept her finger on the trigger.
"P-please Vivian. Don't do this!" Trini screamed, trying to pry her arm away from her neck. However, Vivian didn't budge. In fact, she gripped her neck so tightly that it was as if she was choking the life out of the Vietnamese girl.
"And I told you to shut the fuck up!" Vivian hissed in her ear.
"Why are you doing this? What will killing me accomplish, huh? I told you before that Russell's not coming back to you. If anything, you should be taking it out on him, not me," Trini replied in an exasperated tone.
"Oh, don't worry. Once I kill you, he's next. Now, for the last time, shut the fuck up!" Vivian said before she tangled her fingers through Trini's hair and gripped her scalp tightly, yanking her head back and causing her to whimper in pain. Then, she forced the younger woman to get down on her knees.
"Anyone tries to play the hero will get shot! Now, Trini, you have any last words before I blow your fucking brains out?!" Vivian snapped as she pointed the gun at the back of her head; intending on killing her romantic rival, execution style. Trini closed her tear stained eyes tightly and started to say goodbye to the people she loved dearly.
"NO, VIVIAN, DON'T SHOOT TRINI!" Jason screamed as he maneuvered his way through the crowd. Trini opened her eyes and breathed a huge sigh of relief seeing the man of her dreams making his presence felt, with Tommy, Kim, Rocky, Aisha, Adam and Tanya trailing right behind him.
Vivian mentally cursed herself for not just shooting Trini as he slowly made his way up on the porch and maneuvered his way right between Vivian and Trini, holding his hands up in order to prevent Vivian from doing the unthinkable.
"Oh, look who's here? Your fucking knight in shining armor!" she screeched, glaring at the handsome man standing right in front of her.
"Okay, I'm gonna need you to calm down. This has gone too far and you and I know it. Just hand over the gun and let end this peacefully," he replied as he stuck his hand out to her.
Vivian just shook her head. "I don't think so. This doesn't concern you, Jason. I suggest you step aside because I have your bitch of a friend to take care of. Permanently!"
He shook his head and stepped closer to her. "If you're gonna shoot her, you're gonna have to go through me."
"Why are you so fucking concerned about her, huh? You didn't give a damn about her when she was in Boston, so don't go and act like you care!" Vivian snapped as she pointed the gun right at his chest. You could hear the people surrounding Trini's house gasping in fear.
"See, that's where you're wrong, Vivian. Jason not only cares about me, he loves me. Something that even you will never take away from me," Trini jumped in, standing right behind Jason and grabbing his arm, gently yanking him back away from Vivian, who was still holding the gun and was looking more and more irate.
"Yeah, well, Russell loved me until you showed up and lured him away from me. I did everything I could to get him back; from seducing him back into my bed to sneaking around behind your back. Hell, I even tried to seduce this gorgeous specimen of man standing in front of me, but, no, he turned me down. Then, Russell had the goddamn nerve to invite you to my wedding! I had to make sure that didn't happen! Well, now, there's not gonna be a wedding because he fucking dumped me and he still loves you, Trini! He came here to tell you that! Do you have any idea how much you hurt me?! DO YOU?!" Vivian screamed, tears streaming down her face.
Trini was crying softly as she watched Vivian break down right in front of her. Slowly, she stepped from behind Jason and stood right in front of Vivian, breathing heavily and felt a tiny shudder when Jason placed his hands on her shoulders to keep her calm.
"Vivian, you have to listen to me. I was nothing but kind and civil towards you, but you treated me like I was nothing. Russell pursued me for the longest time before I finally caved and agreed to date him. Was I happy with him? Yes. I don't regret the 18 months we shared, however, he broke my heart when he announced to everyone at the church that he still loved you and had every intention to marry you. Believe me, getting your heart broken is a bitch, but I'm dealing with it and moving on. I came back home to my friends, who truly loved me and was so happy to see me again. Yes, I used to cry myself to sleep at night about the whole thing, but, to be honest, I learned a long time ago to pick myself up and stop living in the past. I told him that there was someone out there for me and he's gonna treat me with all the love and respect I deserve. And, since I came back home, that someone was standing right in front of me the entire time," Trini said, looking over her shoulder and smiling softly at Jason, who winked at her.
"So, what about me? What am I supposed to do? I can't go on with my life without Russell!" Vivian screeched.
"Yes, you can, Viv," a new male voice jumped in.
Everyone turned their attention to Russell, who was maneuvering his way through the crowd and making his way up the steps. Trini and Jason stepped back and allowed her ex-fiancé to take over because, honestly, Trini was exhausted trying to explain to Vivian that she didn't steal him away from her.
"Well, glad you decided to join us, Russ. Now, I can kill you!" Vivian screamed as she pointed the gun right at his chest. To her shock, he placed his hand over hers and lowered her arm down.
"Vivian, it's not gonna happen. You don't have the heart to shoot anyone. Give me the gun and let's get out of here. You obviously need some serious help," he said, shaking his head.
"I don't think so, Russell. I said I was gonna kill you and Trini. I'm gonna blow her fucking brains out, then I'm gonna shoot your black heart! You're gonna pay for breaking my heart and ruining my life!" Vivian screamed, raising her arm up and pointing her gun at his chest once again. He tried to take it away from her, but she raised her leg up and kneed him right in the nuts, causing him to double over in pain.
"Now, like I said before, I'm gonna shoot you and Trini! Anyone else tries to get involved will be dealt with!" Vivian boomed before pointing the gun at Trini's head. However, Jason ended up stepping right in front of her once again; with intent on taking the bullet for her in order to ensure her protection.
"Jason, please, I don't wanna see you get hurt," Trini said frantically, grabbing his arm tightly.
He just sighed at her. "I'm gonna do whatever it takes to make sure you're safe. If it means I have to take a bullet, then so be it. If anything happens, just know that I love you so much."
She closed her tear stained eyes and laid her head on his shoulder. "I-I love you, too, Jason."
"Aw, isn't that rich? Jason trying to protect the woman he loves. Well, that won't be happening. Move out of the way or else I'll put a bullet in your head, too!" Vivian said, breaking them out of their own little trance.
"Then go ahead and do it, Vivian. Pull the trigger. Just so you know, you're not gonna get away with this. You can't escape, either. So, if you have the goddamn guts to do it, then go ahead. What's stopping you from shooting, huh?" Jason taunted, raising his arms up halfway as if he was challenging her.
"What the hell are you doing, bro?!" Tommy screamed as he attempted to intervene, but Kim had her hand on his arm and pulled him back.
"No, handsome! Don't rock the boat even further," she said, her tone dripping with worry.
"I can't just stand back and allow him to do something that's gonna potentially get him killed! I understand he wants to protect Trini, but he's crazy for putting himself in the line of fire like that," Tommy interjected as he tried to intervene once again. However, Kim pulled him back, with a little help from Aisha and Tanya, who grabbed his other arm and pulled him back away from the chaotic scene from the porch.
"Let me go, girls! I have to stop Jason from doing something stupid!" Tommy hissed, but they didn't let go.
"Tom, man, you're only gonna accelerate the volatile situation even further if you interfere. Let Jason handle it. It seems as though he's getting through to Vivian," Adam jumped in, placing his hand on the other man's shoulder.
"I agree with Adam. Getting involved will make the situation more complicated. Jason's just doing what he thinks is right: stopping Vivian from taking innocent people's lives. It's obvious that she does need some serious help," Rocky chimed in, looking somber.
Tommy stopped moving and sighed deeply. "Man, for your sake, I hope you're right."
"Don't worry, handsome. For as long as I've known him, my big brother always stands up for others. He just has more reason to protect Trini because he truly loves her. Just in case, we'll be ready to move in and get her out of harm's way, okay?" Kim suggested, smiling at her husband.
He sighed again. "I don't like this, but you got yourself a deal. However, the minute the shit hits the fan, we're moving in."
"You got it," they all said together before they turned their attention back to the chaos brewing on Trini's front porch.
"Jason, I'm not playing with you! Move out of the way or else I'll kill you, too!" Vivian snapped, her arm shaking once again and more tears streaming down her face.
He didn't move a muscle. "Sorry, but I can't do that. I'm not gonna let you take the life of the woman I love just because you have some misplaced anger towards her. You should take it out of the man laying on the porch. I'm getting Trini out of here."
"No one's going anywhere! Well, since you won't move out of the way, I guess you can join your precious Trini...in hell!" she screamed as she prepared to shoot. However, Russell, who was laying on the porch after getting kicked in the nuts, jumped up and threw himself right at her. He attempted to grab the gun away from her once again, but she kept her grip on it tightly, but her finger was no longer on the trigger...for now.
Jason quickly jumped in; trying to help Russell grab the gun away from Vivian. As the three struggle to get the gun, Trini attempted to jump in, but Kim, Aisha and Tanya pulled her off the porch, catching her completely off guard.
"What are you doing? I have to save Jason!" Trini screamed, struggling to get away from their grips. However, she would never get the chance to get back up on the porch because within seconds, shots started ringing out.
Several people began to run away from the scene while everyone else ducked. After the smoke cleared, Vivian, Russell and Jason laid quietly on the porch; not moving a muscle.
So, the question is: which one of the three had the misfortune of getting shot?
