this is another chapter touch-up through the action that is revision. I know that I had said before that my first ever Marissonshipping fanfiction, 'The Heartless Timing That Is Life' was completed, and so did its status on my website, but then I got a good, long look at just how unbalanced and ungrammatical it was. so, I'm rewriting it. in case no one has noticed it about me, I'm kind of a perfectionist. I know that it's an ugly trait, but it's one that I put up with, nonetheless. this revised chapter, right here, is a measly one-hundred-eighty-eight words worth of storyline... a storyline that still doesn't include this paragraph of a headnote or the mandatory disclaimer which makes up the following paragraph. OK, on with said disclaimer...

disclamation: I don't own the 'Pokémon' anime in any way, shape, or form. I'm afraid that the ownership rights of that, the manga, and the games are reserved for Satoshi Tajiri and the folks of the Nintendo Gaming Company. yes, I know that the creator of 'Pokémon' has the same name as Ash Ketchum's name in the raw Japanese dub is. I don't even own this fanfiction's own storyline. the storyline for this very fanfiction has been inspired by a tween-friendly Korean cartoon under the series title of 'Flowering Heart'.


Suddenly, a couple of younger girls came running in their direction. The two of them looked just like they were about five to eight years old. The older girl was chasing after who looked like her younger sister.

Older sister: Yvonne, get back here, you little squirt.

Yvonne: No way, Evangeline, why do you always get the pretty stuff?

Yvonne hid from Evangeline in the hibiscus bushes in front of Raymond and Kimberly's beach house. Yvonne put her finger over her mouth in a shushing gesture towards Raymond. Raymond gave the little girl assurance that he would keep quiet about her by sliding his thumb and forefinger across his lips as though he were zipping them up.

Evangeline: Where is she? That little runt! Hey, Uncle Raymond, have you seen my little sister, Yvonne?

Raymond: Nope, haven't seen little Yvonne anywhere near here. Why don't you go and check the beach, Evangeline? She's gotta be somewhere on Solaris Island, I'm sure of it.

Evangeline: When I get my hands her, Yvonne is gonna wish she'd never stolen my earrings. They were a gift from my friend, Jean Luc.
