The next day, Janet insisted to Brad that they go out for a drive. She knew where she wanted to go, but refused to tell Brad. This drove him crazy as they were driving.
"Janet, just tell me where we're going." he insisted.
"Just calm down, darling. You'll see where it is as soon as we get there." Janet replied.
Brad sighed as Janet continued giving him directions to her intended destination. Soon they were on a familiar road, in fact it was too familiar to both of them. Brad instantly realized where Janet wanted to go.
"Oh no, Janet. Don't tell me you want to go there." Brad groaned.
"Yes, Brad. I have to go to where the castle was and face my fears one final time." Janet said.
Groaning again, Brad made the turn onto the section of the road that would lead them towards the old castle courtyard. Eventually, they reached a pair of very familiar looking gates. Two years had taken their toll, as the gates were now rusted and the lock on them had fallen off. Brad and Janet silently got out of their car and walked over to the old gates.
"Allright Janet, let's get this over with." Brad said.
The gates creaked as Brad and Janet pushed them open to reveal an empty dirt field. Only this field hadn't been empty two years ago, as this was where the Frankenstein place once stood. Janet even noticed that there was still a bit of ash on the ground from when the castle had taken off into outer space and a piece of Dr. Scott's old wheelchair was still buried in the dirt.
"Wow, not much has changed here in two years." Janet said.
"I don't think anyone has even set foot here in two years until now." Brad said.
Janet sighed as she walked towards the center of the dirt field and drew a circle in the dirt with her toe. Brad watched her as she paced back and forth, wringing her hands at the same time. Finally she stopped and looked up at the sky with a look of satisfaction.
"Well Frankie, I'm back. Yes, I have returned to the Frankenstein place. And you know what? I've beaten you. You don't have your hold over me anymore. I'm a changed woman and I can move on now. You can't scare me anymore, I'm over you." Janet said outloud.
"Oh honey, is that why you wanted to come?" Brad asked, wrapping his arms around Janet.
"Yes, darling. I needed to come here and face my fears one final time so I can move on." Janet said.
"And, did it work?" Brad asked.
"Oh yes, I feel like a new woman now." Janet said.
Brad grinned as he planted a soft kiss on Janet's lips. As the two made their way back to the car to go home, Janet thought of everything that had transpired in her life for the past two years. But finally, she was free of that evil doctor, free of his evil cronies, and free of the Frankenstein place. She could move on.
THE END
