In the end, Misaki has her own people and things that she cares about, and her own reasons for why she does things, and those people, things, and reasons are fundamentally different from Mikoto's. While I wouldn't call her a "good" person, I would also go so far as to say she isn't a "bad" person. She simply cares about what she cares about, and does not care about anything else. She seems to lack the generalized sort of empathy for people in general that most people consider "normal," but then, she also clearly has a significant amount of experience with the dark side of Academy city. It's very easy to imagine that her past there could have turned her off towards trusting and caring about most people.

That said, she and Mikoto are basically oil and water. Mikoto does care about people in general, and considers it completely beyond question that of course you would try to help people in trouble, and keep from getting them in trouble, and so on whenever needed. The two of them just don't get each other. Their worldviews are fundamentally different.
