Disclaimer: I don't own the show or the characters. Reviews are appreciated! To clear up any confusion, Michael reacted the way he did because I wanted to really show his pain and anger, Similar to how he acted toward Owen in season 3.

Coulson POV:
"Will she be okay?" I ask Jemma.
"At this point it's hard to tell," she replies. We stare at May's body, which is hooked up to an oxygen tank. "Her lung suffered a significant amount of damage," she continues. "Normally, she would heal fine, but she was already weakened from the framework. Her body was weak from not being used. Her muscles were already fatigued, and her strength was lacking," Jemma finishes.
"But she'll wake up, right?" Daisy asks.
"She's in a hypercapnic coma. Basically, it's caused by a buildup of carbon dioxide. I'm trying to help that by giving her more oxygen, but she can't live on that forever," Jemma explains.
"What are her chances?" I ask.
Jemma hesitates. "Right now, she has about a 51% chance of waking up," Jemma replies, her voice so quiet, that it could barely be heard. My fist clenches. I turn and walk.
"Sir, where are you going?" Daisy asks.
"To have a talk with Michael," I reply, my voice filled with anger.
"Wait Sir. If the situation was reversed, and May was trapped in the Framework, how would you be feeling?" Jemma tells me.
"You can't let your feelings cloud your judgement," Daisy adds in.
I don't respond. "If our positions were reversed, I sure as hell wouldn't hurt anyone," I say.
"Sir, let me talk to him. With all due respect, you are in no state to talk with him," Daisy tells me.
"She's right," Jemma adds. I hesitate a moment.
"Okay, you're right. Go in, and I'll monitor from above," I reply.
Michael POV:
I wake up in a cell, about an hour later, my head throbbing from the icer. I slowly stand and walk around, becoming aware of my surroundings. The cell takes up about half the room. There is a shield up, that acts as a barrier between me, and the rest of the room. Suddenly, the door opens and closes, and I hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Daisy comes into view. "You're awake," she says.
"Why the hell am I in here? I should be in the framework, trying to get Nikita out!" I tell Daisy.
"You attacked an agent! She's in a COMA because of what you did," Daisy replies.
"I'm sorry about that okay? I let my emotions get the best of me. Right now, we need to focus on getting Nikita out before they kill her in there, and she dies out here," I say to Daisy.
"We can't let you go into the framework. You could die in there as well, and it is dangerous," she replies.
"I'm dead without her," I whisper. Daisy looks at me, and I see a glint of what seems sadness in her eyes.
"I'll talk to Coulson, and we will figure something out," she tells me. She steps closer to me. "I promise, I will do everything in my power to get her out," she reassures me.
"Thank you," I call after her. She nods and leaves the room.
Nikita POV:
"AHHHHHHHHHHH" the scream is ripped out of me. The chemicals course through my veins, causing me to feel like I'm on fire. "STOP, PLEASE..." I beg, as more chemical flows through my ivy. After what feels like eternity, the pain subsides, and the man walks in.
"You are our strongest candidate yet," he says. As I start to fall unconscious, he says "We will have more fun tomorrow,". Fear runs though my body, as I pass out.

Sorry for the random and quick update, but I couldn't stop myself from writing more. The next chapter will be more Nikita centric!
