Kyo realized why when she fully Emerged at 15. Fearing what they might do to her, Kyo quickly left her job, got her mom, and hurried to the train station.

With the last bit of her money, Kyo's mother bought a van and stocked it with basic essentials. At sixteen, Kyo turned to Shadowrunning to make money for her and her mom. She tried her best to conceal her Technomancy on runs, worried someone might target her. | |||
On one of her first few runs, however, Kyo found herself being followed. Kyo tried to lose them, but once she got back to her van-home, shots ripped through the van's walls. Kyo's mother, high on some street drug, leaped to her feet, grabbed her pistol, and marched outside the van. For an excruciating five minutes, Kyo listened to the sound of gunfire while hiding behind the couch. Then there was silence. Kyo crawled out of her hiding place and slowly edged out of the van. Her mother was propped up against a dumpster, clutching her body. Kyo ran over to her mother and grabbed her hand. That's when Kyo could finally see how much blood was around her mom. The two held each other, crying. After what felt like forever, Kyo let go of her mom, who was cold and limp now. Kyo took her mother's wedding ring, which she'd never taken off, and put it into her pocket. | |||
Wiping the tears from her eyes, Kyo turned to see who had killed her mom when she felt a fist slam into her jaw. She crumpled to the ground, clutching her head, and grasped for the pistol her mother had used. Turning to see her attacker, Kyo watched as his sledgehammer crashed into her back. The sound of her fake cyberdeck breaking was almost as loud as her cry. That's when Kyo realized the ringing in her ears wasn't from the pain. Her attacker was screaming, clutching his eye, his sledgehammer on the ground. Kyo crawled backwards, taking several more shots at the man, all of which missed. The man, still holding his face, ran off. Kyo never quite recovered from the experience, and she still gets very uncomfortable around guns, even refusing to touch one again.
