{{q|He looks a lot like you.|Xemnas and Roxas talking at the Dark Margin}}

The Organization's final member piques Xemnas's interest greatly, as he is the Nobody of a Keyblade wielder. Xemnas tracks down the young boy in [[Twilight Town]] and names him [[Roxas]], taking him to his new home in [[The World That Never Was]] where he introduces Roxas to the rest of the Organization. Xemnas arrives at [[Hollow Bastion]] shortly after recruiting Roxas, in order to observe Sora, Roxas's original being. The [[Princesses of Heart]] sense his incredible power, and Sora, [[Donald Duck|Donald]], [[Goofy]], and the [[Beast]] go to the Chapel to investigate. Xemnas walks through Sora, intangible, causing Sora to experience many of his memories in rapid succession. Sora asks who the man is, and Goofy wonders if it is Ansem, and though Xemnas says he is familiar with the name, he does not clarify how or who he is. He then launches an energy attack at Sora, who manages to barely deflect it. Xemnas remarks Sora looks like "[[Roxas|him]]", and is not complete, but this only confuses Sora. He then attacks the Keyblade wielder, intending to test his power. After an intense battle, he backs off, almost appearing to be defeated, but quickly abandons the facade. He explains that he finds Sora fascinating, and says that they will one day meet again and disappears, but not before making an ambiguous comment on how he is but "[[Nobody|a mere shell]]".

{{Q|Let us all welcome the Keyblade's chosen.|Xemnas introduces Roxas to the Organization}}

On Roxas's sixth day in the Organization, he meets Xemnas at the [[Dark Margin]]. Xemnas tells Roxas that he has been to see Sora and remarks that they look alike. Roxas asks Xemnas who he is, but Xemnas answers cryptically before asking Roxas if he knows his own real name. As he leaves the beach, Xemnas calls Roxas, "Sora".

Xemnas sends the members of Organization XIII on their missions to further their plans while placing Xion in the care of Roxas. Xemnas eventually extends their operations to [[Castle Oblivion]]. With this fortress in his control, he sends five Organization members, [[Marluxia]], [[Larxene]], [[Vexen]], [[Lexaeus]], and [[Zexion]], to conduct experiments on memory with the use of [[Naminé]] who is being held prisoner by the Organization. Xemnas places Marluxia in charge of Castle Oblivion and charges Vexen with the task of continuing the Replica Project. Xemnas was also the one who handed down the order to Marluxia to lure Sora to Castle Oblivion and experiment with the hero. However, once the [[Dusk]]s brought back rumors of traitorous activities occurring in the castle, Xemnas sends [[Axel]] to neutralize the threat. Additionally, he instructs Axel to search for [[Chambers of Repose and Waking|Chamber of Waking]] within the castle.

Xemnas's plans falter when five Organization members are eliminated and Naminé escapes, but Xemnas continues his plans for Xion, placing Axel in charge of capturing her whenever she tries to escape the Organization. He would also repeatedly send Axel back to Castle Oblivion to continue searching for the Chamber of Waking, to no avail.

{{Q|The Keyblade...a truly marvelous weapon. Were it only in more capable hands...|Xemnas}}

On the first day of Roxas's summer vacation, he has a dream of his meeting Xemnas at the Dark Margin. During the fourth day, Xemnas orders Axel to destroy Roxas if he doesn't return to the Organization, much to the latter's objections. He puts a halt to Xaldin's threat to deal with Axel if he fails to carry out his task, raising a possibility of a worse punishment for Axel: being turned to a [[Dusk]]. Unable to refuse, Axel relents to the order and goes to persuade Roxas to come back to the Organization.

True to Xemnas's words, he and Sora meet again at Hollow Bastion, accompanied by [[Demyx]], Xaldin, [[Xigbar]], [[Luxord]], and Saïx, all of them hooded. Sora doesn't recognize Xemnas or his coat from their first encounter. The Organization taunt and mock Sora, only angering him. Afterwards, they return to Where Nothing Gathers, discussing on the plan to test Sora. Xemnas primarily remains at the Castle That Never Was while the other Organization members travel to different worlds, ordering them to stir up the Heartless and motivate Sora to defeat them. Later, Xemnas receives a report by Saïx, who had just returned from [[Twilight Town]] to deliver a message to Sora. He applauds Saïx's ability to follow his orders successfully, given that he did more than the other members did. When asked about Axel, Xemnas then chastises the traitor for trying to preserve a disillusioned friendship with Roxas, even going as to "pity" him.

   

During the early stages of the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]], Xemnas comes to Ansem the Wise's computer room, where he opens a path to the [[Chamber of Repose]]. He enters the Chamber, located below the Heartless Manufactory, where he visits the [[Keyblade Armor|armor]] of [[Aqua]] and briefly speaks with it. He then goes to the Great Maw, where he looks upon the Heartless army that had temporarily halted. [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], upon seeing his face, finally remembers that Xemnas is the Nobody of Xehanort. Xemnas leaves the battlefield, but King Mickey gives chase and engages Xemnas in combat, while Sora, Donald, and Goofy are blocked from following by the Heartless.  

Sora and the others then travel up to the very top of the tower, where they find Xemnas lamenting the damage done to Kingdom Hearts. He asks the three Keyblade wielders to fetch him more hearts, and when they refuse, he proceeds to face Sora one on one in [[Memory's Contortion]], a phantom version of Memory's Skyscraper, where Riku once fought Roxas.

Although Sora fends off Xemnas and is returned to the [[Altar of Naught]], the Superior is not yet defeated, and reappears before his Kingdom Hearts urging it to join with him to grant him the power needed to destroy his enemies. Sora and the others try to stop him, but Xemnas fuses with Kingdom Hearts anyway. Fortunately, the worlds create a door for Sora and the others to enter. They follow Xemnas into Kingdom Hearts, but they see that Xemnas has taken its power and transformed the realm into a place resembling the World That Never Was with a giant fortress in the middle. He hurls a building at them, causing Kairi and Mickey to be separated from the others, but even so, Sora, Donald, Goofy and Riku proceed. Xemnas dons [[Xehanort|Master Xehanort]]'s Keyblade Armor and uses a combination of powers from his fallen comrades to battle them, but he is still defeated. Following this, Xemnas apparently fades into darkness.

{{Q|Sora...the bits and bytes that have made up your life so far...can you say for sure they're not just copies of someone else's?|Xemnas}}

Despite his destruction, Xemnas returns to the [[Realm of Light]], thanks to [[Young Xehanort]], and encounters Sora numerous times during his [[Mark of Mastery exam]] inside the [[Sleeping Worlds]]. At [[Prankster's Paradise]], he claims that Sora is not so different from himself, while at [[The Grid]] he reveals that the world is the basis of [[Space Paranoids]], while also getting Sora to question whether he was acting of his own free will, or merely following "his program".

Finally, in the World that Never Was, Xemnas appears before Sora and explains to him that the true purpose of Organization XIII was to find twelve vessels for Master Xehanort to place fragments of his own heart and make into clones of himself, but the unforeseen independence of each member made this impossible to realise, despite Xemnas's lies about Nobodies not having hearts to earn their cooperation. Xemnas tells Sora that he is Master Xehanort's intended final vessel of the [[Real Organization XIII|new Organization]], but Sora refuses and engages Xemnas in battle once again. Though Xemnas loses the fight, he succeeds in damaging Sora's heart and retreating to the Castle That Never Was.

Later, Xemnas appears in Where Nothing Gathers along with Master Xehanort, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]], Xehanort, Xigbar, [[Saïx]], and the other members when Riku arrives with Mickey to rescue Sora. When Master Xehanort attempts to turn Sora into the thirteenth vessel, Xemnas stops Mickey from reaching him, but [[Lea]], Donald and Goofy arrive and foil Master Xehanort's plan. Xemnas promptly flees with the rest of the Organization.
