I think I've finally discovered what Xion is and how she finally came into creation. I'll state one thing though based off my assumptions. She's a different kind of being, something like a nobody, but not exactly. She's something else. There's a similar type of phenomenom which could have led to a similar outcome. It gets deep, but I believe I've finally found something to latch onto after being away for so long.
First, let me expain that Xion is directly connected to Sora and Kairi, and by saying that, Xion is also connected to Namine and Roxas in some way, shape or form.
Now, let me take you back to the birth of Xehanort's Heartless, as pin pointing his direct creation, may lead to the understanding and comprehension of how Xion came into existence in the first place. Basically, he's the example no direct connection intended. Anyway Xehanort wanted to explore new worlds, follow the heartless, unlock doors, and eventually arrive to the place which housed the heart of all the living. However to due that, he would have to cast off his body, as it was not strong enough to make the voyage.
Xehanort casted off his body, which was reborn in the realm inbetween and became Xemnas, meanwhile Xehanort became a heartless. However he was no ordinary heartless, due to the fact that he chose to become a heartless and embraced the darkness, he retained his thoughts and memories prior to the transformation. However he lacked a physical form, but through Riku's body, he was able to retain his human form. Thus the being Xehanort Heartless came to be.
I know you are wondering what this has to do with Xion, but let's assume a similar phenomenon occur. Of course not exactly the same, but along those same lines. Could Xion really be Kairi's Darkness in physical form? Is she a heartless? Well I'll explain.
During Kingdom Hearts, when the Island was about to fall to darkness, Kairi's heart left her body, and binded itself with Sora's, protecting it. However it is later revealed that the reason for such phenomenon, occurred because Kairi held no darkness within her heart due to the fact that Princesses of Heart possesed no darkness, which means a heartless was not created. Her body remained in the realm of light, while her heart went elsewhere, connected to Sora's. However, Kairi was left as an empty shell.
When Sora used the Heart Unlocker (Unofficial Name) to release Kairi's heart from within his own, Sora pulled out his own heart as well. That event set off a chain of reactions which resulted in the birth of Roxas, Namine, and yes, Xion.
Since Kairi's heart was released from Sora's body, Namine came into creation by using Sora's body and soul as a channel to support her appearance based off Kairi's heart and image. Roxas came into creation after Sora's body and soul was reborn in the Twilight Town.
Now that we are clear on how Namine came into the picture. Is it possible for Xion to the the darkness that once inhabitated Kairi?
Well based on this quote, its damn near impossible due to the fact that Kairi's heart never possesed any forms of darkness. So how could Xion have possibly came into creation? Well again I believe it has something to do with Sora...
Yet Sora still recieved an inferior heartless. True the heartless retained its sense of self, however due to the fact it was inferior, it lacked an advanced state of mind, unlike Xehanort's Heartless. What gives? Could Xion actually be Kairi's heartless, while Namine still remains as Kairi's nobody?
Ansem never stated that Kairi did not have a heartless. He merely stated that Kairi did not produce a heartless on that night on Destiny's Island due to the fact that her heart was pure. However, once Sora released their hearts from his body, two sets of heartless and nobody came into creation. It is not possible to have a nobody without a corresponding heartless, so this is what I think happened.
In a similar case with Namine. Xion came into creation via the separation of Sora and Kairi's heart from within Sora's body. Based off Kairi's heart, Xion's image was formed, but due to the fact that she lacks darkness within her own heart, the darkness of Sora's heart reborn gave way to the creation of Xion, which may have resulted in Sora's inferior heartless. Namine is a nobody combination of Sora and Kairi. Namine's image comes from Kairi's heart, but her vessel (although unstable due to Sora's body and soul only serving as a link to support the false image) came into creation once Sora's body was casted off.
Xion is a Heart combination between Sora and Kairi. Kairi's heart was used to create the image, while the darkness in Sora's heart led to the creation of Xion. However, I'm assuming all of the darkness was not used, as Roxas also needed a corresponding heartless, which resulted in the inferior heartless of Sora. Xion retains a physical form through the combination of Sora and Kairi. That explains why Sora was able to be restored to his physical form by Kairi, while still lacking his other half (Roxas). Sora's heart was brought back from the darkness by Kairi's light, which means he held no more darkness in his heart.
This makes Xion and Sora (prior to joining up with Roxas) to be polar opposites, yet one in the same. Sora, a being lacking a body or soul, however through the binding of hearts between Kairi and himself, allowed for his physical form to return. Xion obtained a physical form through Sora's darkness, which means Xion and Sora are in a sense, two sides of the same heart. However, Xion is closer to Xehanort's Heartless because a heartless is nothing more than the manifestation of the darkness in one's heart given form. However Xion is different because she does not require a vessel to retain her form.
This is my explanation for Xion and how she is connected to Sora, Roxas, Namine, and Kairi.

Her body remained in the realm of light, while her heart went elsewhere, connected to Sora's. However, Kairi was left as an empty shell.
This is because the “young girl” in this case was a princess. Kairi, a resident of Radiant Garden over which I had ruled, was one of the Seven Princesses that uphold the realm of light. With no darkness in her heart, Kairi produced no Heartless, and instead of vanishing, her body remained in the realm of light.
In other words, both the Nobody called Namine’ and the Heartless – proof of a lost heart – are extremely unstable beings who lack the bodies needed to produce a Nobody. Therefore, they also lack Kairi’s memories. One reason for this may be that Kairi’s heart did not return to the darkness when separated from her body, but rather migrated to another vessel…deep within Sora’s heart. That is, Namine’ is an alter ego of the Kairi who has directly interfered with Sora’s heart. Could this be why Sora and those whose hearts are connected to him were able to have their memories controlled? She is a non-being in the truest sense of the word; having not become a Nobody and with nowhere left to go, she is but the most fleeting of shadows.

When Sora used the Heart Unlocker (Unofficial Name) to release Kairi's heart from within his own, Sora pulled out his own heart as well. That event set off a chain of reactions which resulted in the birth of Roxas, Namine, and yes, Xion.
Since Kairi's heart was released from Sora's body, Namine came into creation by using Sora's body and soul as a channel to support her appearance based off Kairi's heart and image. Roxas came into creation after Sora's body and soul was reborn in the Twilight Town.
I have arrived at a hypothesis. I believer that Namine’ was born as a special type of Nobody when Sora attacked himself with the Keyblade, causing his and Kairi’s hearts to leave their bodies simultaneously. Namine’ emerged as Kairi’s Nobody… but the body and soul necessary to exist as a Nobody belonged to Sora. Ansem Report 10
Now that we are clear on how Namine came into the picture. Is it possible for Xion to the the darkness that once inhabitated Kairi?
Then there are Kairi and Namine’. Kairi was exceptional for having no darkness within her heart. Also exceptional was that her heart, once freed, migrated to a new vessel – Sora. The combination of these two theoretically unlikely exceptions may be behind this anomaly. Ansem Report 10
Well based on this quote, its damn near impossible due to the fact that Kairi's heart never possesed any forms of darkness. So how could Xion have possibly came into creation? Well again I believe it has something to do with Sora...
When a person’s heart is stolen, a Heartless is born with no sense of self, and the body and soul left behind gave rise to a Nobody. But what if one willingly releases one’s heart from one’s body? Sora and Xehanort retained their selfhood even after becoming Heartless. Secret Ansem Report 10
Yet Sora still recieved an inferior heartless. True the heartless retained its sense of self, however due to the fact it was inferior, it lacked an advanced state of mind, unlike Xehanort's Heartless. What gives? Could Xion actually be Kairi's heartless, while Namine still remains as Kairi's nobody?
