"You've got to let me go," Trini said as she sat up and the three adults shook their heads no. There was no way that they would let her put herself in that situation. She was likely to get herself killed if she did. Jason was far too strong and if he didn't come back for her, they were all afraid that he would kill her. He was certainly physically capable enough to do it and with the evil in him, they were afraid of it all. "Billy, you said it yourself, he's only going to come back for me. Why send Tommy in there and let him risk becoming evil himself? We can't lose him, you know exactly how strong he is and if he was to go to the other side, we wouldn't be able to make it."

"Tri, Tommy knows what he is doing," Kim said as Trini looked over at her. The only reason that she had come back to Tommy was thanks to Jason hurting her, so she just needed to remember that herself.

"Since when do you trust him again?" Trini snarled as Kim took a step backwards, she could see that this was affecting Trini more than they ever thought that it would. Obviously there was an unresolved issue between Trini and Jason, but no one really knew what it was or that it existed until recently.

"Trini, that's not the point…you're hurt, you don't need to go in there right now," Kim said as Trini stood up and walked straight over to Billy.

"Send me to him…" Trini demanded as Billy just stared down at her, in shock. She had never acted like this before, she had always taken into account her own health. "Damn it, Billy, you want Tommy to come back evil or do you want me to try to save Jason?"

"Okay, Tri…but you better know what you're doing," Billy said as he walked over and then teleported her away as Tommy teleported in.

"Oh god…" Tommy muttered as he collapsed to the ground and Kim walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder, which he grabbed with a rough hand.

"Tommy…" Kim said tentatively, thinking that Trini might be right and that they were already too late to save Tommy from a similar fate.

"You're okay," Tommy said as he pulled her into a strong hug and she looked down at him in surprise. She had not heard so much relief in his voice in a very long time where she was concerned, it still made her heart skip a beat to think that he might care, but who was she fooling? Tommy no longer cared for her, she had ensured that ten years ago. "I was sure that when I came back, all I was going to see was that you were gone too. Where's Trini?"

"We sent her there," Billy said as Tommy stared up at him.

"He's going to kill her, Billy. What would make you do that?" Tommy asked, as he pushed himself to his feet and Billy shrugged his shoulders.

"He won't kill her Tommy, he can't…he's not physically capable of it," Kim said as Tommy looked over at her, wondering how she could make that statement so easily. He had been damn sure that she was going to kill him a couple of times during the last month and she had come pretty close to it. "No matter how hard it is to believe, I knew on some level that I could only harm you so much…he's done more than they wanted him to do to Trini. He's already feeling some guilt for that…give her a chance…she might just be what he needs."

"And what if you're wrong?" Tommy asked as Kim looked up at him. She did not really want to think about that possibility, she knew that if she was wrong, this was going to kill Trini.

"I don't know what we'll do then, but if you don't let her try, we'll never know what might have been," Kim said as Tommy barely nodded. Although he hated to let this happen, he knew that he had to in order to save his best friend.

"She'll be able to get him back," Stanton said as Xanderien looked over at him, hoping that he was not being honest. "Whatever you have planned with him, you need to do it now. There is no more waiting around for the perfect moment."

"It won't work if I only have one ranger, I need two of them to make this work," Xanderien said as a shimmer of light landed in his area and Xanderien laughed. It was funny to think that they would send another ranger to them, it was all that they would need to succeed at his plan.

"Jason?" Trini asked as Xanderien threw her to the floor and she landed with a dull thud. She had not thought that they would attack her and would leave her to Jason, obviously they had changed their way of thinking in the last few hours since he had been broken out of their spell once.

"I'll let him take care of her," Xanderien said as Jason walked in and smiled.

"I get my bitch back?" Jason asked as Xanderien nodded his head yes and Jason bent down and picked Trini up and carried her off.

"Maybe this will actually work," Xanderien said as he leered at the two of them and watched as they walked away.

"Jason…" Trini muttered as he dropped her rather roughly on his bed and she saw the look in his eyes, which scared her to death. She had seen it before and she was scared of what he would do to her. It was the kind of scary determination that he had when he had taken on Goldar and Lord Zedd, but now he had it with her as well. "Please don't…Jase…"

"Trini…you are mine now," Jason said leaning down next to her and she felt his breath against her ear. She was fighting to stay conscious, as she knew if she didn't Jason was going to do something that he would regret in the morning. "Come to my side."

"Jase, please, come back to me…I can't live without you," Trini said as he pressed her roughly against his bed and she looked up at him in shock. She did not know what was going through his mind, but she was sure that it was something that she did not want to deal with.

"You'll be mine either way, Trini," Jason said as she looked up at him, the thoughts that were going through her mind about what he was about to do scared her. From the position that they were in, she could tell that probably one thing was going through his mind and she had to talk him out of that, fast.

"Jase, please don't…please," Trini begged as he reached for her jeans and she stared up at him. "I love you…please Jase, don't…fight this…I know that you are not this person. You don't want to do this."

"You love me?" Jason muttered as she nodded her head yes and it took him a moment to realize what she was saying. It was as if he was being lifted from a fog to hear those words come out of her mouth. He suddenly realized that what he was doing was wrong, on some level, but he was not exactly sure why it was wrong. "You love me?"

"Yes, Jason and I want you back…I need you back…" Trini said as the tears started flowing and his eyes flashed red, but then went back to normal and it was as if everything cleared.

"Tri…what have I done?" Jason asked as he looked at her and she began sobbing.

"I was afraid that you would rape me, Jase," Trini whispered as he just stared at her. He could not believe that his evil self would go that far, but by looking at the position that they were in, he knew it to be the truth.

"Come on, I'll get you out of here," Jason said picking her up and then looking around. "Are they going to teleport you out?"

"I have no idea," Trini said as Xanderien walked in and saw that Jason was back to normal. "Get out of here Jase…"

"I'm not leaving you alone," Jason said as they felt themselves being teleported away and when they landed in the Command Center, Trini collapsed from the pain that she was feeling. "Tri…"

"Give them a minute," Tommy ordered as Billy looked over at him and then nodded as they herded the younger rangers out of the room and then left themselves. They knew that the two of them definitely needed a minute to get over everything that had happened and try to figure out exactly what where their relationship stood.
