Not long after arriving in Hollow Bastion and reuniting with [[Aerith]], [[Leon]], and [[Yuffie]], Sora engaged a number of [[Dusk]] [[Nobody|Nobodies]] in battle around the city. After being led away from the main town, Sora, [[Goofy]], and [[Donald Duck|Donald]] heard voices mocking them, but could find no source for them. After Sora demands that they show themselves, the remaining Organization members (having lost five members due to deaths and two others due to desertion) materialize, laughing. Though they are hooded, they are recognizable as the Organization from the description given to Sora and his companions by [[Yen Sid]].

The Organization eventually departs, but Xigbar, still cloaked and hooded, stays behind to taunt Sora further, making them feel anxious about the power of the Organization. He also openly compares the similarities between a glaring look Sora gives him and one given to him by [[Ventus|another]]; Sora dismisses this as random banter meant to confuse him. Xigbar then leaves, staying out of Sora's way for a very long time.

Sora encounters Xigbar again at the gates to [[the Emperor]]'s throne room in the Land of Dragons. Having encountered another hooded man and suspected him to be his missing friend [[Riku]], Sora inquires if he is the same person. Xigbar removes his hood, revealing otherwise and remarking that he had never heard of anyone named Riku. Xigbar summons his Snipers to distract Sora while he escapes. The diversion works, and although the Nobodies were defeated, and Xigbar is able to continue his mission of summoning an enormous [[Heartless]] to harvest [[Heart|hearts]] for the Organization's plans. He manages to set the [[Storm Rider]] on the city, but it is soon destroyed by Sora, [[Mulan]], Donald and Goofy.

Xigbar's final appearance in the game is in The World That Never Was inside [[Organization XIII]]'s stronghold. After Riku and [[Naminé]] helped [[Kairi]] to escape from the Organization, they head for the [[Hall of Empty Melodies]], a large, open-air room leading further up into the castle. Sora and his party arrive there, but are stopped by Saïx, who calls out swarms of [[Shadow]] and a few [[Armored Knight]] heartless to attack the intruders. [[Maleficent]] and [[Pete]] also arrive, expressing interest in taking the Organization's castle for themselves.

[[Maleficent]] and [[Pete]] also arrive, expressing interest in taking the Organization's castle for themselves.


Eventually, Maleficent and Pete leave to formulate a plan for taking the castle, and Saïx heads up to rejoin Xemnas. Sora and Kairi remain separated as Riku and Kairi remain above Sora on a balcony, fighting off the Heartless gathered there. Many Heartless attack Sora as well, but they are all dispatched in a sudden rain of arrows from a hidden Xigbar. He walks into view, and asks if Sora has been a good boy mockingly, echoing the words from his first encounter with Sora. He states how Sora put the Organization in a "pickle", and he supposes that was the reason the Keyblade chose him. He also makes a very cryptic remark on how he wasn't "half the hero the others were". Sora simply takes it as an attempt to throw him off as Xigbar then engages Sora in battle, referring to him as "Roxas" while expressing anger at him for betraying the Organization. Ultimately, he is defeated and begins to fade into the darkness. Before he disappears, Sora asks him why he called him "Roxas", to which Xigbar merely chuckles and responds, "Wouldn't you like to know?"

''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' contains several additional cutscenes of Organization XIII's activity. One shows a conversation at an unknown time between Xigbar and [[Zexion]], with Xigbar having recently returned from finding new members from the Organization (including [[Marluxia]], whom he mentions as a new recruit) while Zexion and [[Vexen]] were discussing Xemnas' visit to the [[Chambers of Repose and Waking|Chamber of Repose]]. Xigbar expressed his knowledge about the events of [[Keyblade]] warriors that appeared before they found [[Xehanort]]. He also talked about his eavesdropping on Xemnas during his visits to the Chamber of Repose, and how he seemed to be conversing with someone that wasn't really there.

==Appearance==
==Appearance==
Xigbar wears the usual Organization garb of a black cloak, black boots, and black gloves, though his cloak is distinguishable by more pointed shoulders and the fact that it sags at his shoulders. The sleeves of his cloak are also somewhat closer-fitting than normal, though not as close as [[Axel|Axel´s]]. In terms of facial features, Xigbar sports gold eyes, pointed, elf-like ears, upturned eyebrows, and dark hair with several grey streaks tied into a long ponytail.

He also has two visible injuries on his face; the first being a damaged right eye covered by an eyepatch, while the other is a large jagged scar extending from his left cheek to just under his left eye. His original self, Braig, received these injuries when he fought the Keyblade wielder [[Terra]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''.
