Future Lucy's timeline was the first before Future Rogue's. Look at it like this. Future Lucy came to the past, 7 yrs before the attack of the 10000 dragons. She came back to warn Natsu and the others of her bleak present, 7 yrs from the present X791. Warned but no idea of preventing such a future. Probably, they'll warn the princess about the incoming future and she might stop the Eclipse plan which kept the door closed. That brought a new timeline(Future Rogue's timeline) where Acnologia destroyed the world. Future Rogue came to the past where the Grand Magic Games were held in order to warn the princess of his future and encouraged her to open the Eclipse Gate to prevent his future from happening. However, it was his agenda where his true intentions was to bring 10000 dragons of the past to the present through the Eclipse Gate and probably bring them to his future through the gate again to kill Acnologia and becoming the Dragon King.
