Why are there Rainbows?

Hermes was walking one day when he saw a pot of gold. He grabbed it and was bringing it back to Zeus when a leprechaun starts chasing him. Hermes ran but he couldn't get the leprechaun off his tail. Zeus sees this so he throws lightning bolts at the leprechaun. Zeus missed him everytime so he makes it rain. Hermes started to slide while he was running. Zeus told Apollo to have the sun rise. When the sun rose it made a rainbow Zeus told Hermes to run up the rainbow. When Hermes reached the clouds Zeus maked the rain stop. The leprechaun fell and when he hit the ground he took a trip to the underworld to visit Hade.
