Once upon a time, there was a pair of bugs. The loved going fast and was fascinated with the cats that were running very fast in the forest.

They studied the cat for sometime and finally they approached one of the cats the secret of their speed. The cats told them, it was their legs. They noticed the snail was so slow so approached the snail and asked it how many feet it had.

Immediately, my children answered, it has only one foot!

With this they concluded that the more feet one has the faster one will be. So they started on a quest to get feet (they did not have any feet at the time and was just crawling like snakes).

Finally, they heard of a kind magician in the forest. They were told, just go into the forest and look for lots of smoke, there you will find a magician who can help you.

Soon, they came to ArcStone. They requested ArcStone to get them a million feet. At this, ArcStone waved the wand and suddenly, their body grew long and a million feet appeared but something went wrong and ArcStone just vanished. Some of the animals in the forest heard the commotion and came to investigate. When they saw the two bugs, they warned them to be careful about making request from ArcStone but alas the deed was already done.

Now the problem is synchronizing the movement of a million feet. You can imagine how it is to learn how to walk with a million feet. Learning to walk on two feet is already hard enough. The two bugs later became known as millipedes. Unfortunately, they found out that they are not able to move faster than the cats and that speed does not come from feet alone.
