User blog comment:Belanderanime/Question about the 3 FUTURES, 10 000 dragons PLEASE HELP!!!!/@comment-60.53.102.237-20130708031654



Well if you see the diagram where Mashima numbered the futures as 1 & 2, so if we follow the sequence maybe it is something like this.


 * 1) Future 1 Eclipse Gate open, 10,000 Dragons come and destroy humanity.
 * 2) Future Lucy goes back to past to warn her friends about the Dragons. Maybe her interference allowed Lucy and the rescue squad to avoid being captured and they successfully closed the gate, avoiding the 10,000 Dragons but eventually Acnologia came.
 * 3) This time Future Rogue travels back to the past and interferes with the supposed future no.2 which resulted in timeline no.3(present timeline).
