Eventually, Bishop and Deathbird return to the Solar System and encountered the inert planetary mass of the [[Living Monolith]] on their way to Terra Firma. Curious, the two land their craft and investigate the man-shaped planet. Suddenly Deathbird betrayed Bishop to a cadre of Skrulls and he was returned to Earth to implement the ultimate plans of the Skrulls' ally, [[Apocalypse (comics)|Apocalypse]].<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #372. Marvel Comics.</ref> Deathbird was herself betrayed and transformed by Apocalypse into one of his [[Horsemen of Apocalypse|Horsemen]].<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #374. Marvel Comics.</ref> With the title of War, Deathbird helped Apocalypse assemble the X-Men he referred to as "the Twelve."<ref>''Cable'' #74. Marvel Comics.</ref><ref>''X-Men'' #96.

Deathbird and Bishop later run into each other during the [[Maximum Security (comics)|Maximum Security]] event. Earth had been made a prison planet, with an energy barrier around the [[Solar System]], and Deathbird had the key to unlocking it. Bishop confronts her, and the two fight. Deathbird dares Bishop to kill her, before opening an airlock and getting sucked out into space. Bishop was able to close the airlock, and admits to himself that he hates her.<ref>''Bishop: The Last X-Man'' #15. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Sometime later a globetrotting X-Men team led by Storm exile themselves from their home and teammates to find Destiny's thirteen diaries since none like the idea of having their destinies defined.<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #1. Marvel Comics.</ref> This team would recruits new members [[Lifeguard (comics)|Heather Cameron]] and her brother [[Slipstream (comics)|Davis]].<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #9-10. Marvel Comics.</ref> During a mission to infiltrate the ship of the intergalactic warlord Khan, Heather's appearance changes to resemble the alien Shi'ar race, and it was theorized that she and Davis had some Shi'ar heritage, Jean Grey noting that the cranial markings on her head and the crest of feathers she had manifested indicated Heather is of Shi'ar royal ancestry.<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #14. Marvel Comics.</ref> An entry from Destiny's diary seems to imply that at least Heather was "Mothered by War," which happened to be Deathbird's Horseman moniker while she was serving Apocalypse. The entry shows a picture of Deathbird facing off some of the X-Treme team members (Storm, Bishop, Thunderbird and Lifeguard in her Shi'ar appearance).<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #10. Marvel Comics.</ref>
