Once upon a time, there was a magical mountain in the middle of a vast forest. The mountain was filled with colorful trees, beautiful flowers and all sorts of animals. Every day, the mountain sparkled and glowed with a mysterious light.
One day, two friends, Jack and Jill, decided to explore the magical mountain. They packed their bags with food and water, and set off on their adventure.
Jack and Jill hiked up the mountain and marveled at the beauty around them. They saw all kinds of exotic birds, colorful butterflies and friendly animals. As the sun set, they noticed a strange light coming from the top of the mountain.
The two friends decided to keep exploring and they eventually reached the peak. When they got there, they were amazed to find a beautiful rainbow sparkling in the night sky. Jack and Jill were so amazed that they stayed and watched the magical colors until the sun came up.
When the sun rose, Jack and Jill woke up and started their journey home. As they left the magical mountain, they felt a special connection to the beauty and mystery of the place. They knew they would never forget the magical mountain and the amazing rainbow they had seen.
