Prologue

Ralph was happily sat down on a large, soft surface as he purred away like a ready motorcycle. Ralph was mostly white in colour, but down his back was a dark brown, which also covered the back of his ears and underneath them on his face, leaving a 'v' shape of white inbetween to cover the rest of his face; his tail was also brown, getting lighter in colour as it got to the tip, which was white.

Pearl looked around intently, looking to see what the person was doing. He did this mostly every morning. Her ginger fur was quite short and not affected by her frantic head movements. She had white on the end of her paws and in a neckerchief-like shape from her nose down her neck. Her coat was shaded with both light and dark shades of ginger.

Syrup relaxed happily by the heat of the radiator in the bathroom. She had cheekily brought down one of the towels on the towel rack to sit on. Her fur was extremely fluffy, which funnily made her look rather chubby. Mostly her fur was a very light shade of brown, but her soft, fluffy belly was completely white.

"Alright, cats. I gotta go to school now. English exam," the person sighed.

He walked up to each cat and stroked their head gently. He quickly sat down to check he had all his equipment in his pencil case. Ralph happily walked up to him and sat on his lap and lay down in a relaxed state.

"Aw Ralph, I gotta go. But I'll give you cuddles when I'm back," the person smiled, moving the purring cat back to his place on the bed.

He then went downstairs and exited the house. Ralph let out a sigh and sat back down in a curled position. Syrup quickly toddled into the room and leapt to the bed, then immediatley took another leap to the windowsil to watch the world outside. She knew she could just go out through the cat flap, but she liked the view from her owner's window, though it was not much. Another house. She sometimes ventured to that front lane but it wasn't much to explore.

The three cats looked very relaxed and all closed their eyes.

Ralph stood up to stretch, then padded his footing on the surface below him. This was unusual to him. Rough like dirt outside and not like the soft bed he was sat on a moment ago. He nudged Pearl with his face, his eyes half closed due to drowziness. She yawned and looked up, then her ears flattened at the sight before her.

She sniffed at the creature before her. This was Ralph. She then looked behind her as another creature nervously looked her and Ralph in the eye.

Ralph and Pearl guessed that this was Syrup and her smell confirmed this claim. Pearl then padded up to a large puddle and looked into it.

"WHAT IS GOING ON?" she yelled, before quickly placing a hoof over her mouth.

"D-did you just?" Ralph quickly covered his mouth too.

"We're talking like him!" Syrup gasped.

"How long could we do this for?" Ralph asked with a big grin, "maybe now I can talk to our owner!"

"That is...if we could find him..." mumbled Syrup.

They took a look around and noticed that they weren't familliar with their surroundings.

"Where are we?" Ralph asked, walking in circles to look all around him, still wearing a huge grin.

"I don't know, but we have to find our owner," Pearl said.

"Where would he be?" Syrup asked quietly.

"Oh! Oh! I know! Maybe he's sat on that thing that makes the loud noise with the light-up thing he's always looking at!" Ralph enthusiastically suggested.

"If we knew how to get home we could probably find him." Syrup suggested.

"That would be good...if we knew where home was," sighed Pearl.

"Hey! There's homes down there! Why don't we go and see the people?" Ralph asked and ran towards the town without hearing from Pearl or Syrup.

The girls quickly chased him and they all stopped at the entrance to the town. What they saw before them was a familliar sight, but they hadn't been there before.

"Hey! I know this place! I know this place!" Ralph bounced.

"This looks an awful lot like the place thats sometimes on our owner's light box," Pearl remembered.

"I miss him..." Syrup sniffed.

Ralph jumped over to Syrup and nudged her face with his, "Cheer up, Syrup! This place is familliar! I'm sure we'll see him here! C'mon! Let's go and talk to whoever we see!"

He bounced over to a pink creature and said hi with a huge grin. The creature jumped up and gasped loudly, then shot off in the other direction.

"Wow! She sure seemed in a rush!" Ralph beamed.

The three walked forward for a bit, with Ralph saying 'hi' to all the creatures he saw on the way with a large smile. They reached a large tree with a creature outside not looking busy at all.

"Could we ask that creature where we are?" Syrup asked quietly.

Pearl elegantly walked over to a purple creature with something coming out of its head.

"Excuse me, could you please tell us where we are?" she asked nervously.

The creature studied Pearl for a moment then smiled, "why, you're in Ponyville!"

"Ponyville?" Ralph repeated.

"Yes...have you ponies never been to Ponyville before?" the creature asked.

"Wait, ponies? As in the animal?" Pearl asked.

"Yes. Ponies, like you or I." the pony said with a hint of confusion.

"Ponies?" Syrup whispered.

"But we're cats!" Ralph exclaimed.

"Cats? But you look like any regular pony to me," the purple pony laughed.

Pearl stepped back and studied her surroundings. There seemed to be ponies everywhere. She then looked in the window of a building and looked at her reflection again, then looked to a smiling and bouncing Ralph and a scared and shy looking Syrup.

"Ralph...Syrup...something bad has happened," she gulped.
