The real Organization XIII (真のXIII機関 Shin no Jūsan Kikan?), also known as the thirteen seekers of darkness (13人の闇の探求者 Jūsannin no Yami no Tankyūsha?) or simply Organization XIII or the Organization, is a group consisting of thirteen different incarnations of Master Xehanort who seek to reforge the χ-blade and unlock the original Kingdom Hearts to remake the world. They serve as the final antagonists of the Dark Seeker Saga.

The true purpose of the original Organization XIII led by Xemnas was for each of the Nobody members to host a fragment of Master Xehanort's heart, turning them into clones of Xehanort, but the members' unforeseen independence made this goal impossible to realize. However, in anticipation of this failure, Master Xehanort had arranged to send Ansem, Seeker of Darkness back in time to his youth, to meet Young Xehanort and become a portal[?], travelling to different periods of time and gathering different incarnations of Xehanort who would be added to the ranks of a new Organization.

Due to the time travelling nature of many of the hearts comprising the Organization, future members first appeared in Kingdom Hearts with at least one making an appearance in every game since. As a group, it was first alluded to by Yen Sid in Signs of What's Next when he claims that one Keyblade Master will not be enough to counter what is "not a single one of Xehanort", before making its official introduction in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.

Unlike the original Organization XIII, the real Organization XIII is not composed exclusively of Nobodies; some of the members are complete people, while others are time travelling hearts hosted within Replica bodies. Despite full knowledge of the purpose of this new Organization, many members use it as a means to fulfil their own independent goals, rather than out of loyalty to Xehanort.

Story

Before Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep

Xehanort meets Ansem, his Heartless from the future.

Young Xehanort was visited by his future self's Heartless Ansem, Seeker of Darkness and told of the great plans Master Xehanort has in store. Given his task, but limited by the rules of time travel, Xehanort left his body behind and journeyed into the future to make contact with the right hearts needed for the backup Organization.

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep

Unable to physically interact with the world without a body to reside in, Young Xehanort acquired one in the form of Even's newly created Replicas and begins his mission.[citation needed] Arriving in the period of his older self's first attempt to reignite the Keyblade War, Young Xehanort recruited Vanitas, whose heart is incomplete, and brought his heart with him.

Kingdom Hearts

Young Xehanort arrived after Ansem, Seeker of Darkness had asserted his control over Riku's body, and collected his heart as well.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

Young Xehanort arrived in the days after the original Organization XIII finished filling its ranks. He collected the heart of Xion, before her personality had taken shape.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories

Once the Riku Replica was brainwashed into believing himself the real Riku, Young Xehanort collected his heart as well.

With the demise of Ansem and Xemnas, both Terra and Master Xehanort began reviving. However, before Terra could escape, Young Xehanort arrived and implanted Terra-Xehanort's heart into him, forcing Terra's own heart into Xehanort's guardian.

Young Xehanort arrives at the Heartless Manufactory just as Ansem the Wise's apprentices revive, and before they awaken. He wakes Braig and informs him that, due to the failure of the original Organization XIII, the backup Real Organization XIII must be completed. Braig agrees to be turned back into his Nobody, Xigbar, and they select Isa to join as well, in the form of Saïx, before leaving.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

The real Organization XIII gathers together for the first time.

Shortly after being revived, Lauriam, Elrena, as well as Demyx and Luxord's original selves were approached by Young Xehanort and agreed to become Nobodies again.[?]

Although Even was also revived, he remained comatose due to the grievous wounds Axel had inflicted upon his body when he destroyed Vexen.[?] While the other apprentices were distracted searching for Isa, Young Xehanort infiltrated the castle and abducted Even. He convinced Even to return to his Nobody form and join the new Organization in order to provide Replicas, but unbeknownst to him Even, now Vexen, had joined as part of a plot concocted with Saïx to sabotage their plans and absolve their prior misdeeds.[?]

With Vexen's stock of Replicas, Young Xehanort was able to deposit his own heart, as well as those he had collected from the past, into new bodies, allowing them to begin operations. With their new bodies, Ansem, Xemnas, Young Xehanort, Vanitas, and the Riku Replica, now called "Dark Riku", work together to put Master Xehanort's plan into motion, interfering with Sora and Riku's Mark of Mastery exam within the Sleeping Worlds in order to lure Sora to The World That Never Was so that they can abduct him and make him one of Xehanort's vessels.

Having baited Sora to The World That Never Was, Young Xehanort is aided by Xemnas and Xigbar in trapping the Keyblade wielder deep within the abyss of sleep. Afterward, he ferries the boy to Where Nothing Gathers in the real world and convenes eleven of the Organization's current thirteen members, excluding Xion, Vexen, and Demyx,[?] to await the completion of Master Xehanort's revival. Template:Section-stub Master Xehanort attempts to make Sora into the final vessel, but when Sora is rescued by Riku, Mickey, and company, the Organization disperses to their proper times,[?] while Master Xehanort remains confident that in time he will complete his Organization.

Members

By the time the real Organization XIII is ready to re-enact the Keyblade War they are composed of thirteen active members, with two additional members serving as reserves. Additionally, Vexen creates twelve newer Replicas from each of the active members of the Organization save Master Xehanort himself, to replenish their ranks should the need arise.[citation needed] Despite twelve of the members being defeated, Master Xehanort summons their remnants into the Replica Xehanorts when Sora confronts him at Scala ad Caelum.
