It's hardly believable that Lucy would die, Mashima wouldn't forsake her main female character... Think of Erza and the Tower of Heaven arc. Lucy will likely be the siatuation's damsel in distress and either Natsu/the rest of Team Natsu/the entire Fairy Tail will come to her aid. In the mayhem which might be to come, I can even imagine Fairy Tail and Raven Tail cooperating to a degree... Though the latter ones would be supposed to keep acting like assholes.
