Warning: Kinda...not for the weak...

Mi-Mi lay, cold and naked, on a steel bed in a large room. Some fifteen machines were connected to her, monitering everything that happened within her body. Machines beeped and whirred. The respirator hissed as it blew air across the vomit it lay in. She had thrown it up the last time she had awoken.
She groaned and turned slightly, wincing as needles dug further into her flesh. She heard a small noise form another room, followed by foot steps and the scraping of a steel door against and stone floor.The steps continued, stopping next to the "bed" she lay in.
"Wait..." Mi-Mi's voice cracked. Tears had seeped from her closed eyes to rest in her ears. Her pale eyes opened and the nurse gasped. The Hopian's eyes were pure white, the girl had gone blind in her sleep. "Don't...put me out...again..."
New tears fell down her face. "I don't want anymore of that, please...don't..."
The nurse looked down at her, confused.
"Why? Don't you relise, this is what keeps you _alive_. It stops the cancer, it numbs the pain..."
"I DON'T CARE!! I DON'T WANT ANYMORE!!"
The nurse stepped away, the girl in front of her strainted against the leather restraints.
"Do you want to die? Do you want the pain this stops?" She held the needle up, forgeting the girl's blindness.
The girl nodded.
"It's better than this..."
The nurse closed her eyes and turned away.
"You should've stayed home, you should have never come here."
The patient laughed softly.
"If only it had been that easy..."
The nurse looked back at her.
"What do you mean?"
"I was banished because my father was Saiyan," she laughed softly again, tears sprung anew from her unseeing eyes "I...I was thier queen, you know? They didn't care...all they saw was my blood, like you people...We're not monsters you know."
The nurse blinked.
"What do you mean? You came here to kill us!"
The banished queen snorted.
"I was a mercenary, what do you expect?"
"You...you were?"
"Yeah, I was...looking back I wish I had chosen something less...regretable..."
"Hm? You regret it?"
Mi-Mi laughed.
"I'm not heartless you know! Of course I regret it."
"Why? I mean, what turns a killer for cash legit?"
She laughed histerically. The nurse looked at her, confused. The girl stopped, smiling still.
"Of all things, you humans."
"Why was that funny?"
She stopped smiling.
"You torture those you fear."
The nurse sighed.
"Yeah, I know, but how exactly did _we_ turn you?"
"Funerals. I attended one." She shook her head "I couldn't believe that anyone cared enough to come up with and attend those things. It made me think about what I was doing and why. After that I put my weapons away and went to school."
The room was silent, with the exception of the machines, for five minutes before the nurse spoke.
"I could get arrested for this."
"I'm sor..."
"No," the nurse interrupted "I am."
She began unplugging the machines and pulling needles and sensors off the girl.
Mi-Mi listened as she left, closing the door behind her. Then, the pain hit, she screamed and writhed, pulling against the leather straps, her howls echoing throughout the building.
In the next room the nurse held her hands over her ears, her eyes were shut tight, but tears still escaped to flow down her face.
