In a blind rage, Roxas tries to cut down DiZ, but sees that this DiZ is only a hologram; even after this, Roxas continues to attack DiZ. He vanishes, and the pod in the center of the room opens. All his anger drains away when he sees Sora slumbering in the pod. Sadly smiling, he says to Sora, "You're lucky... Looks like my summer vacation is... over." With those words, Roxas respectfully accepts his fate and rejoins with his original self.

Right after the prologue ends, Sora hears Roxas call out to him, and wonders who it is before hearing Donald and Goofy do the same and waking up.


Though he does not actually appear to Sora throughout most of the game, Roxas is frequently mentioned. Most of the Organization members act as if Sora is Roxas and refer to him as such, which both frustrates and confuses Sora. Roxas himself manages to maintain a presence within Sora despite "resting". The first time this is hinted at is when Sora departs from Twilight Town for the first time, saying goodbye to Hayner, Pence, and Olette.

Despite Sora having never seen or met Roxas before, he immediately knows his name. When Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Mickey enter the digital Twilight Town, Sora calls it "Roxas's Twilight Town", and then sees a memory of Roxas destroying the computers. It is also made apparent that Axel is determined to transform Sora into a Heartless; if Sora became a Heartless, then Roxas would be reborn. Finally, Axel reveals his intent to Sora and his relation to Roxas before fading into nothingness from using all his energy. His disappearance, as Xemnas said, was strong enough to finally, truly awaken Roxas at last.

The hints of Roxas's presence within Sora come to a climax in the World That Never Was. At Memory's Skyscraper, two Samurai Nobodies arrive and block Sora from Donald and Goofy. At the same time, a cloaked Roxas confronts Sora, summoning his Keyblades (much to Sora's surprise). The two are transported to the Station of Serenity, and engage in an intense battle. During the fight, Roxas says that he is someone from the dark, and Sora wonders if he is Riku. His guess is incorrect, and Roxas says that he had defeated a Riku once. He then demands to know why Axel chose to sacrifice himself for Sora, rather than continue with his plan to resurrect Roxas by turning Sora into a Heartless. While attacking Sora from above, Roxas sees Sora's memories of Riku, Kairi, Donald, and Goofy next to Sora, and finally understands that Axel chose to help Sora because Axel, like so many others, was touched by Sora's heart. Still, Roxas continues to attack, and is able to knock the Keyblade out of Sora's hands. Sora, however, recovers the Keyblade and swiftly cuts a surprised Roxas down. Roxas, wounded, drops his weapons and his hood to reveal his face, and tells Sora, "You make a good other", before disappearing with a satisfied look.

{{Q|I see myself the way you remember me, and you see yourself the way I remember you.|Roxas, when reunited with Naminé, before joining with Sora once again}}
After Xemnas's seeming defeat and the demise of most of the Organization members, Roxas and Naminé reunite, with Roxas projecting himself through Sora after Naminé joins with Kairi. They are happy that they met again, and say that unlike other Nobodies, they got to meet their original selves and become whole.
