...Yes.
This was good, this was right. She had managed travel, after all. Although her entrance into these worlds was rather confusing, and even now she still didn't know anything. She was, as far as she knew, recently reanimated, and though nothing changed, her mind was bombarded with new emotions and memories. It was gift to suddenly know so much, but now she was having a bit of an identity crisis.
On top of that, she was now at ground zero in terms of research. No tools, no alchemy, no lab. Just her and the ground around her, enchanted by Loki's Veil, the embodiment of her very mental power. Even if she was not in tune with mana, and could not cast magic, with alchemy, technology, and psionics, she could at least control the world around her with the creations of her mind.
But enough of that. It was time for meditation. There weren't many trees in the area, and that was a wonderful fact. Trees react to the wind, and the shade of branches moving was such a distracting thing. Diana moved down the hill she was on until the sun was mostly out of the annoyance factor, and sat down. And that's when the magic happened.
The blue magic circle around her faded, and in its place, a green glow surrounded the area 30 meters around Diana. While her eyes were shut, she began the chanting of sutras, and flowers began to grow everywhere within the glow. Although most of them were simple, small herbs and shrubberies, the sunflowers that sprouted, along with the fact that so many were growing so quickly, made it obvious that the plants were not natural, and that Diana was the perpetrator.

Green....
That was the first think that came to mind as he wandered the deep forest that surrounded his city. This place was thriving with wild life and plant life, not to mention the countless Nobodies that roamed the forest, looking for something to benefit themselves, anything. Nobodies were smart, and coordinated attacks with at least some strategy. In this case a group of sly Dusks circled this young girl, hoping to rob her of something valuable.
They charged... but they would not reach the girl. Instead they would dissapear in a poof of white smoke by a snap of the fingers by Xemnas. Xemnas recovered his hand to his side as he examined the female in front of him. She was deep in meditation, performing some kind of magic. He wondered what kind of spell and decided to watch her for a few more moments without disturbing her, afterall magic could be catastrophic when a spell was in complete.

Her meditation had been broken long before Xemnas had even stepped into the forest. She could feel them, the odd steps of beings not even human, not demon, not anything. Diana could not stay still in a situation like this, and her mind was forced to whirr with a familiar air of full consciousness. She moved her perspective to the nearby flowers, and got her first glimpse of these odd Nobody bodies. They were... completely inhuman. And not only that... there was another one approaching them.
Much to Diana's confusion, this one was humanoid, and had quickly dispatched of the others with a single motion. He seemed to be waiting for her. By this time, there was no use to keep pretending that she was meditating. The field around her turned blue, and all the plantlife vanished, leaving nothing but the native plants and trees of the forest. She looked at Xemnas silently, coldly, before giving a small remark.
"You're not human."

Xemnas saw the girl stir to conciousness and looked straight at him. It was if the girl knew he was here, if so... he would not be suprised. As for the Nobodies, they were not dead, simply somewhere else. They left on his orders, but the manner in which they did so suggested defeat. In fact they were possibly watching the Superior and this girl this very second.
Meanwhile he was chuckling over this comment before correcting her, "Good.. you don't miss a thing, however..... Although I am not human... I retain what I used to be. I used to be human but there is one part missing from me now that keeps me from being fully human."
Xemnas eyed the girl and continued, "It is something all humans have, and what you have, that encourages Nobodies to try and... steal it. You have nothing to fear from me however. I will not try to harm you, though I advise routing yourself away from this dangerous area."

Just as she expected, a person who was not exactly human. He claims he is missing something, and yet, does not seem to be searching for this part. Is he satisfied with what he is now? It only made her more curious as to what exactly he was. It was... fascinating. Human, and yet far from human. As if he was already Enlightened to a certain Truth, or perhaps he had simply evolved beyond what humanity could dream of. His dominion over these creatures certainly meant he had power.
She stood up, maintaining a blank expression, though her eyes betrayed her, sparked by the introduction of this... foreign being. Like a dog to a bone, she was trapped in the man's odd disposition, his powers, and his potential promise for something to be granted to her.
At least until he warned her of the "Nobodies". The world around them was suddenly tinted to a yellow color. Diana's emotions must have been heightened considerably, for even the vision of the area to suddenly go up. She picked up several stones and threw them into the air. By the time they landed, there were 3 axes surrounding Diana. "I'm sorry, but I think you're mistaking me for someone who isn't capable of beating the $%@# out of anything I'm facing. I may only be human, but as you've said yourself: There are some things only humans can have, and there are only some things that humans can do."

"You are right girl, there are things you humans can do. For one you can feel emotions, we Nobodies cannot feel emotions. We also fade into the darkness instead of dying, but the cause is just the same."
he said with a simple wave of his hand. Perhaps he could turn her into a nobody and take her in.... but it was only a thought. Thoughts can evolve to full fledged plans so he filed it away in his mind for later.
c
"Are you trying to impress me girl? If you are, you have... I believe you could survive living in my City..."Xemnas began holding a hand out to the girl, "Would you like to see?" As he spoke a Corridor of Darkness opened behind him, almost as if it was expecting Xemnas to go, though Xemnas did indeed call it.

Emotions? So these... Nobodies, as he called them, are incapable of feeling? That's... that's actually something serious to meditate on. Why such a being wouldn't have this "metaphorical heart", and what benefits it could have? Would the mind be cleared? Or would it be fogged by the lack of what is essentially a part of one's brain? This entire man and his kind was unknown to her, and all she wanted was to jump out and take what they had for herself.
The field returned to blue as Diana saw the corridor behind Xemnas and frowned. It could only mean bad things, most likely. Almost like some sort of creep asking a kid to get into the van. Well sucks to be him. She's got two battle axes and 99 problems but rapists ain't one.
She walked past Xemnas, leaving him with that hand outstretched. "Thank you, but I can walk through a portal without assistance."

Xemnas kept his hand outstretched een as she passed by before slowly returning it to his side, turning around, and following her into the portal. tThey were not returning to the castle but rather yet to Memories sky scraper, th talles building in the Dark City. Many Heartless called this place home as well as the Nobodies that built the city. The whole building was lit, but suprisingly empty as were the streets around it.
The portal's other end would appear on top of the steps that led to the skyscraper. He followed her out of the portal and the Corridor of Darkness vanished, leaving the two seemingly alone. "Welcome to my city. Empty it looks, however there are more Nobodies here than anywhere else in all of the worlds."

Diana Lucra Denarius
Memories Skyscraper
Current Aura: Tree of Life - 30 meters
"Empty... A good reflection of the Hearts of those who have no emotions. Yet while there is no such heart or emotion, one finds that it is replaced with something else as the body slowly begins to compensate for its lack. As one thing vanishes, all other aspects grow in power. For every loss, there must be gain. That is how the universe works..."
She approached the skyscraper and put a hand on the door, trying to peer inside. "What is it like? Having no heart? Aren't you free from suffering, if your emotions have left you? Emptiness..." Diana turned around to Xemnas, her face blank, as if the city itself was hollowing her out.
