Upon returning home, Emily is sent to her room, although she later sneaks out and meets the dragon on top of the railway tunnel, although he states they won't be flying when there are 'better ways'.
Both Emily and the Dragons have a fun time playing various party games, dancing and eating popcorn.
However, the dragon is shot in the wing by the hunters and crashes outside the railway tunnel, knocking Emily unconscious.
Putting her out of harm's way, the Dragon scares off the hunters and their dogs before slumping down against the tunnel wall and seemingly disappearing.
Soon after, Emily searches the tunnel and the dragon's lair but is sad when she cannot find him, even after shouting tidings numerous times.
A sequel to the film, called The Birthday Dragon, was broadcast on television in 1992 before been released on VHS in 1993 by Family Home Entertainment.
