Xion talks to Riku at Beast's Castle, wondering what she should do next, and he implores her to find Naminé in Twilight Town for answers.


On Day 356, Xion locates Naminé in Twilight Town's [[Old Mansion]], questioning her own existence and the fate that will soon befall Roxas. She discovers that she is not a Nobody, but an imperfect Replica of Roxas. Naminé reveals that as a memory being, once Xion returns to Sora, everyone's memories of her will be forgotten. Furthermore, Naminé's attempts to restore Sora's memories not only affect Roxas, but Xion as well, explaining why they both keep having memory relapses. Xion decides to go back to Sora to assist Sora, Naminé and Riku. However, DiZ barges in with the news that an Organization member has followed her. Xion decides to take care of it, despite Naminé's protests, and leaves the mansion.
On Day 356, Xion meets with Naminé in Twilight Town's [[Old Mansion]] in order to learn about her nature and how it affects Roxas. Naminé informs her that she is a Replica made from Roxas's memories, rather than a Nobody, and that this means that reuniting with Sora will cause her to not only no longer exist, but also be completely forgotten. Xion persists in her commitment, certain that it's where she belongs, but is interrupted by DiZ, intruding in the conversation to warn them that they have been located by a member of the Organization. Xion goes to investigate and finds Axel, upset that he has been tasked with retrieving or eliminating her, and conversely that letting her reunite with Sora as she wants would also result in her termination. Xion explains that she is committed to her path, and asks Axel "Please don't hold back". In response, he promises that he will "always be there to bring [her] back". Axel is able to subdue Xion after an intense battle, and limps back to the castle with her unconscious body in tow, fainting at the entrance. From there, Xemnas drags Xion away to reprogram her using the [[Organization XIII Device]]s that he had had planted throughout the worlds.
 
It is Axel who has arrived, having finally tracked Xion down in front of the mansion. Not only is Axel curious of Xion's motives, he is also given orders to capture her again, which could convince Roxas to return to the Organization. Xion refuses, saying she has decided to be a part of Roxas like she was originally. Axel admits that he at first believed her decision was right, but realized she would die in the process. Xion insists it is the right thing, but Axel is persistent. Xion pulls her Keyblade on Axel and tells him to use his full power to kill her so Roxas does not have to, prompting a fight in which Axel says he will always bring her back no matter what. He defeats Xion and brings her to The Castle That Never Was, but faints from fatigue. Xemnas appears and carries the unconscious Xion away to reprogram her to use the [[Organization XIII Device|devices]] he had planted throughout the worlds.
 
Soon afterward, Roxas finds Xion at the Twilight Town train station, and after she reveals her altered, Sora-like form to him, she explains that she has been compelled by Xemnas to absorb Roxas and become a "full" Sora, which would in turn prevent the real Sora from ever waking. It is explained in her Secret Reports that this is somewhat of a ruse—she knows that Roxas will disappear if she continues to exist, so she plans to force Roxas to absorb her, saving himself and thwarting Xemnas's plan. She then transforms into a monstrous version of Sora using Xemnas's devices, and attacks.

During the battle, Roxas and Xion are transported to [[Wonderland]], Halloween Town, and [[Agrabah]], before returning to Twilight Town. In each world, Xion absorbs power from the "devices" that were placed there, which contain memories of Sora's battles in each world. After a long and grueling battle, Roxas manages to defeat her, while she regains her original appearance in his view. He doesn't seem to recall who she is, though she assures him that he'll be better off now. While Roxas cradles her in his arms, she tells him that she chose to sacrifice herself to slow down Xemnas's plans, asks that he prevent Xemnas from obtaining Kingdom Hearts, and tells him that she is glad that she met him and Axel. As Xion's body crystallizes and disintegrates, Roxas suddenly remembers her name and holds her hand until she disappears completely, leaving behind a single Thalassa Shell.

Though Naminé states that everyone's memories of Xion will vanish as she does, Roxas, Riku, Xemnas, and Saïx manage to retain some memories of her into the next day. By then, Roxas has returned to the World That Never Was in order to set Kingdom Hearts free, which he hopes will reunite him with his lost friend. However, he is being stalked by a swarm of [[Neoshadow]] [[Heartless]], as well as a determined Riku, who has arrived to capture Roxas to finish Sora's memory restoration. Riku looks down upon the Nobody as Roxas starts his path up the skyscraper. When Xion's lingering influence makes Roxas throw his Oblivion Keyblade to Riku, she is able to communicate to Riku, begging him to stop Roxas before he can reach Xemnas, because she believes Roxas is not strong enough to face him yet. With the message, Riku receives memories of the time he spent with Xion, shocking him for a moment, but they begin to fade as he reaches the ground.
