The legend of the Water Dragon begins with a little boy named Ah Bao, who lived in a small village in China very long ago. One day, while collecting wood in the forest, Ah Bao finds a shiny red stone.

When Ah Bao finally finds the Water Dragon, something unexpected happens that forever changes the little boy.
