Apocalypse roared one last time, as the Lightsaber struck the side of it's head. Through the inexplicable properties of the lightsaber it acted like a solid blade, the heat allowing it to slowly melt through even the immensely heat resistant Apocalypse's skin. It took about ten seconds to slice Apocalypse's head off, and he seemed to be alive until the very last strand of flesh was cut. Then, finally defeated, the titan dropped to it's knees, and collapsed to the ground. It's ugly head rolled away from it, slowly reverting to normal. Not a single drop of blood was dropped, and yet it seemed the monster had finally been defeated.

Of course, Apocalypse was already recovering. His body was improving, his cells improving their basic makeup, even as preparations were made to once more join the head and body together. Data from his combat experiences were translated into additional features, to improve his durability, strength and speed. And most importantly, to make him immune to whatever it was that killed him. With every death the possible weapons to kill him with became smaller, the options narrowing down.

The Ethereal, of course, would be well aware of Apocalypse's defeat. He would also know that Apocalypse would be revived in about 30 minutes. This would only be about ten minutes after the other event, which would unfortunately occur quite nearby.
