After Rogue comes to realize she can't fly through the atmosphere without freezing to death or dying of suffocation, she flies back down towards the mansion. Activating the bay doors towards the jet hanger buried under the mansion's grounds.
She was going to take the mini-jet up into space, only to realize it was missing. Probably what Jean and Scott took for their honeymoon. She thought. Glancing down at her hand were her wedding band would be. It was gone. She thought she was imagining things, but it wasn't there. She even removed her gloves thinking it might be there.
You could see the indention where the ring had been all this time, along her finger. Still upset, this just made it even worse. She didn't have time to look for it. Heading straight for the Blackbird, she walked up the ramp, closing the ramp behind her as she immediately headed towards the cockpit. Stopping along the way to make sure they had a moon suit to climb into.
She needed to speak with Magneto. She had no clue that he had remained her since the wedding. She didn't care. He wasn't her man to be watching anyhow. Remembering something hovering in front of the moon the other night. Realizing it was his ship from high above. She didn't know if he'd be there or not. She didn't care. She actually felt like tearing that place to hell, just because she was so angry.
No one was talking to her. She tried talking to several of Gambit's thieves down in New Orleans. Only to find they didn't talk. So she tried to rough house, several of the thieves inside Gambit's guild, just to make them talk. One of them spouted out Apocalypse. Which she damn near knocked out his teeth for.
She knew that this issue either had to do with Scarlet Witch's disappearing act, and this is how Apocalypse gets back at her family. By making her man disappear. Or perhaps, Magneto had a hand in this, by permanently making Gambit disappear. Just the thoughts flying through her mind, made her angrier with the passing minutes.
Locating the moon suits, she made her way up to the cockpit. Hitting the control buttons and dials, as she powered up the jet. Placing on her seat belt, she moved the joystick forwards, as the jet started to roll into gear. She flicked on a few buttons as the platform holding the jet rose up to the ground level. The engines fired off twice in a row, as she powered up the jet, readying for it to take off as soon as the platform came to a resting point.
The sounds of locks, detached away from the jet's wheels, as she reeved up the engine some more, the jet immediately started to hover above the ground, as the wheels tucked under it's body. Raising up high above the ground, the dust blew everything around in the court yard.
Rogue didn't bother looking back as the jet went into gear, as she shot up high into the air. Continuing with her programing, she set the computer for a course straight towards Asteroid M.

Magneto made it outside, as the dust had already started to settle along the ground. The winds were still tossing up debrie and dirt into the air. Once the dust settled, he could see what appeared to be a rocket? Glancing down along the metallic ground near by. No... not a rocket.
There were no missile silos at the X-Mansion. At least not to Magneto's experience in the past. He stared at the ground, where the metallic doors slid together, before being covered up in a hologram of grass.
" ! " It suddenly dawned on him then, that it was the X-Jet! The Blackbird! He wasn't a telepath. But he was putting two and two together. Someone. No not just someone, it was Rogue. He removed the wedding band from his pocket that he had found earlier in Rogue's destroyed room.
What was this purpose for her to fly to the moon? " ! " Remembering the promise he made to Gambit, he went back inside the mansion for only a moment.
