On Day 352, after being tricked into fighting Roxas by Saïx at [[Halloween Town]], Xion decides to take Riku's advice and leaves the Organization. The next day, Xion fights [[Xigbar]] in [[Wonderland]] who perceives her as [[Ventus]] and knocks him unconscious. She unhoods in front of Axel who was also on the mission, shocking him, and asks him to let her go, which he agrees to, and she retreats through a [[Corridor of Darkness]]. 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 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 Sora'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 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 planted throughout the world.

Despite this, future Sora manages to free Xion and the others by connecting their bonds, allowing them to play a part in fully restoring Kairi to normal. Once Sora and Kairi defeat the Armored Xehanort replica, the Guardians of Light all rejoin at the battlefield to finish him off. Everyone aims their Keyblades at Xehanort and fire off a large beam of [[light]] that manages to pierce Xehanort, destroying him for good. Once the battle is over, the heroes all travel to where Sora's heart is located, which is Scala ad Caelum.

In the aftermath, Xion, Roxas, and Lea return to [[Twilight Town]] at the clock tower to spend time together once again. Xion also becomes friends with [[Isa]], [[Olette]], [[Hayner]], and [[Pence]] once they join the trio on the clock tower.

Xion's Organization coat is similar to the one Roxas wears, with slightly pointed shoulders and closer-fitting sleeves. She also wears the more feminine, heeled boots that [[Larxene]] wears and the basic black gloves.

Physically, Xion strongly resembles Kairi in her appearance from ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', having her blue eyes and virtually the same haircut, though Xion's hair is black, and her bangs part on a different side, some tucked behind her right ear. She is slightly shorter than Roxas.

As a result of her being crafted imperfectly from Sora's memories, Xion's appearance in her original Replica body is somewhat unstable, as she is known to appear as Roxas (in his [[black coat]]) and both Riku and Sora in their original appearances from the first game. Her appearance is also slightly different depending on who is looking at her. Most of the Organization, such as Saïx and, early on, Axel, view her as a hooded puppet, while to Xigbar she appears identical to Ventus. Xemnas, on the other hand, sees her as her as a perfect copy of Sora.

At the end of ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Xion now wears a sleeveless double buttoned, collared shirt and a black belt, a short white pleated skirt and black boots that reach her mid-shin with beige color to the upper fifth, mirroring the clothing of Kairi and Naminé.

Upon joining Organization XIII, Xion is a shy, secluded, and taciturn individual; at this point, Xion had not developed a will of her own. She first opens up to Roxas while they are on a mission together, and later grows close to Axel as well. Her shyness is reflected in her tone during her early days, as she speaks softly and sadly; however, by the time of her first death, Xion spoke a clear and calm voice as she had come to terms with her existence.

She does seem to express emotions due to her nature of existence and is always happy to be with her friends. She is emotionally fragile, however, becoming deeply engaged with the right provocation. When she is reminded of her past in ''Kingdom Hearts III'', she has a breakdown and begins to cry when she feels she has wronged her friends. She has a strong sense of justice and generosity, willingly sacrificing herself to join with Sora. Like Aqua, Kairi, and Naminé, Xion fights passionately to protect those she has come to care for.

After finding out the origins of her existence, she grows deeply confused and lost, and begins turning to Riku and Naminé for support as she does not want to make Roxas feel burdened, while Axel tries to keep her identity a secret from her.
