The ball of rock didn't go anywhere. People just changed the definition of the word "planet" so that Pluto doesn't meet the definition any more.
Pluto has yet to show that it cares one way or the other.

the heavenly body still exists but it is not counted as a planet anymore, its now called a kuiper belt object or simply KBO, this was after a convention in the year 2006 when scientists were debating of what a definition of a planet is, having finallized the new definition, pluto was disqualified and therefore that makes the planets on our solar system only 8

Pluto is still there. It hasn't moved. It has just been down -graded from a planet, to a dwarf planet.
