I decided to leave Genave for ever.I took all the money that I needed,and left the town.Before I left,I went to visit the place where William,Elizabeth,and my father lay at rest.I stood there and promised them that I would stay alive until I had killed the monster.
A loud,evil laugh rang out through the silent night.Then I heard the monsters's voice:'It pleases me that you have decided to live,because that is just what I want.'
I ran towards the voice,but I could not catch the monster.I saw him running away,but he ran faster than any man could go-too fast for me to catch.But I followed him,and I have been followling him since that day.I shall stay alive until I can catch him.He wants me to live as long as possible.He wants me to feel,day after day,the pain and misery that he had given me.He leaves messages to tell me where he is.He knows that I shall follow him.
I am only happy when I was asleep.I dream that I am with my family,and Elizabeth and Henry.When I am awake,I look forward to my death,to the day when I shall be with them.
In his last message the monster told me that he was going north.He wanted to take me where the cold would hurt me and make me more miserable.I followed him to the cold lands of the north,and bought dogs and a sledge.Until now,he had always left me further and further behind when I chase him.But the dogs were very fast and I was getting closer and closer to him.Soon he was only day's journey in front of me.He was going towards the sea,and I hoped to catch him before he reached it.The chase great,and I began to lose hope.I thought I would never cathc him.My dogs could not run much better,and one of them died.Then I saw something on the ice in front of me.It was the monster and his sledge.Suddenly I was full of hope again,and I gave a great shout of happiness.
I got closer and closer to him.Then a great storm started.The ice began to break,and the sea carried him away from me.My sledge was broken,and I lost my dogs.I was left on a piece of ice that was becoming smaller all the time.Many hours went by,and then I saw your ship.The rest you know.I ask you,Captain Walton,too chase the monster and kill him.Do not listen to what he says.He knows how to argue,and perhaps you will feel sorry for him.But remember that he is evil.Remember the deaths of William,Justine,Henry Clerval,Elizabeth,my father...and remember me,Victor Frankenstein.
There is no more for me to say,except to thank you,Captain Walton,for your help and kindness.Thank you also for listening to my story.I want you to tell the world that the monster is a danger to everyone.
I know that I have only a few hours left to live,but I can feel my loved ones near me,and I welcome death.
Goodbyd.This is the end of Victor Frankenstein's story.
