It wasn't that Xion hadn't been surprised to see Aqua's Keyblade. Having thought she, Roxas, and Sora were the only Keyblade wielders, she was. It was just that when faced with an enemy, taking care of that came first. She could ask about Aqua's Keyblade after the Nightmares had been taken care of; Aqua might have questions of her own.

Keeping with the theme the others had started, Xion cast a Blizzaga at a Nightmare Hebby Rep before he could send a fireball at Barkley. Her Meow Wow didn't seem to realize the near miss he'd had, and was happily dealing with Nightmares in his own way. At her call, he bounded over after giving his opponent one last Meow Wounce to finish it off. Others soon appeared in its wake.
