On Your Marks... Get Set... SHUFFLE!

You know those chain mail or journal things where you're supposed to answer a couple questions by putting your music player on shuffle and putting the song names as the answers? Well, this is kind of like that. Except, you don't really have to put your music player on shuffle... But, then, that would be defeating the purpose, wouldn't it? For this challenge, I want you to craft a story from a song. How to pick this song? Put your music player on shuffle, and play all of the songs you have on there. THEN, go to the tenth song on shuffle. Or, you could just choose a song. But again, that would be defeating the purpose. Anyway, with this song, you should create a story. Involve two boys and one dog, and answer these questions: Who? What? When? Where? Why? Basic, yes? You can add as many characters as you want. And this could be ANY genre you want as well. So what are you waiting for? You've got a month! Good luck!
