In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Frankenstein's main goal after seeing the monster for the first time upon its creation is that he wants to escape the consequence of his choices.
Frankenstein felt really terrified as soon as he saw the final outcome of his experiment which was totally the opposite to what he expected. He thought he created a disgusting mosnter so that he wanted to flee and return to his family without saying a word about the hideous creature he brought to life.
