**Ava Shoots John – Saving Herself From John’s Deadly Plot! General Hospital Spoilers**
In a dramatic twist on “General Hospital,” Ava Jerome finds herself thrust into a perilous situation as she uncovers John Kates’ deadly plot against her. Once seen as allies in their shared goal of taking down Sunny Corinthos, Ava and John’s partnership has soured as their true intentions clash. Ava, who initially trusted John while working to secure custody of Avery Corinthos by targeting Sunny, begins to realize that John’s ambitions are far more sinister than she anticipated.

John’s plan to eliminate Sunny is not just about removing him as an obstacle; it’s a calculated scheme to frame Sunny for a murder he didn’t commit. John believes that by killing someone close to Sunny and making it look like Sunny’s doing, he can neutralize his formidable opponent without facing him directly. In John’s ruthless strategy, Ava becomes the perfect pawn—close enough to Sunny to make the plot believable, yet isolated enough to be easily eliminated.
However, John’s plan has a critical flaw that he did not foresee. Sunny Corinthos, aware of John’s scheme, takes a surprising step to protect both himself and Ava. Despite their strained relationship, Sunny warns Ava about John’s deadly intentions. This warning is not an act of kindness but a strategic move to disrupt John’s plans and shift the balance of power in their favor.
Ava is initially skeptical of Sunny’s motives, given their history of betrayal and conflict. Trusting Sunny, who has been her adversary, seems unlikely, especially under the circumstances. Yet, as Ava secretly follows John and overhears a chilling conversation detailing his plan to make her his next victim, her doubts are eradicated. The reality of the threat becomes undeniable, forcing Ava to confront a grim choice: to act preemptively or face certain death.
With her survival instincts kicking in, Ava decides to take drastic action. Drawing from her past experiences and hardened resolve, she knows that waiting for a miracle is not an option. In a tense and calculated move, Ava prepares to confront John. The encounter is fraught with danger as she aims to strike first and eliminate the threat before he can carry out his deadly plot.
The confrontation culminates in Ava making a decisive move to save herself. She shoots John, ending his life and neutralizing the immediate threat he posed. This dramatic turn of events not only secures Ava’s survival but also shifts the power dynamics in Port Charles, leaving a trail of intrigue and unresolved tensions in the aftermath.
