Chapter 9

Future Lucy, Lucy, Natsu, Wendy, Mirajane, Yukino and I head towards the inner parts of the castle to find the Knight and the Princess.
"I have to tell them what is going to happen and with that, Lucy will be informed not to open the gate," Future Lucy tells me.
"Alright!" We walked through hallways till we reached a main door.
"I can smell someone." I hear Natsu. I open the door and there was the knight, Arcadios. They turned around.
"I knew you would get out," The princess said surprisingly.
"What?" Natsu says.
"So the whole thing was a game," says Lucy.
"I need to explain what is going to happen!" Future Lucy says desperately. "To everyone."
"Let her speak. What she is saying is the truth since she is Lucy from the future," I say.
Lucy explains about the gate to everyone and the event that will follow if we don't change things. She also tells our Lucy that she and Yukino should not, definitely not, open the gates.
"I know you will doubt me because you probably think that the 1000 dragons may come if you follow me. But i came to the future to July 4th x793 using the gate to redo history so none of our friends die."
"We all believe you," Said Natsu. "You are Lucy, our friend." He smiles.
Arcadios were shocked. "The there are two people from the future then because the princess also talked to someone from the future and they told her to open the gate because the cannon exists." He says. "We must go find the princess. She should be starting her plan."
We all follow out into the hallway just to get bombarded with a lot of soldiers. "The runaways!! GET THEM!" One of them says. Natsu throws some of his fire punches.
"Get out of our way!" He says. Luckily Arcadios came in front of Natsu and told them to stop. He asked for the princess.
"She's at the Eclipse Gate." One of them says.
"ALREADY? I must hurry." The knight disappears behind another hallway. The solders still enlist on fighting us but just before they can they all disappear.
"What is this?" I say. My eyes were wide. A blast of smoke is left and an individual appears in front of us.
"Who the heck are you?" Says Natsu.
A man with half of his hair white and the other black all pulled in a ponytail stood in front of us appearing before the smoke.
"I have come from the future. I am Rogue." We all stood there shocked.
"So the one who advised the princess was a man. I must go." I tell Future Lucy. Somehow I feel like she kinda knows a little of my secret since I have told her that I know about 400 years ago. Immediately I teleport myself to where Crime Sociere is. "Its a man!" I immediately say. I'm hoping Natsu and the others will take care of the conflict.
"We figured that out. We must head to the gate," Ultear says. They all probably figured out two people from the future are here.
"The gate is already moved above ground. This future person is going to convince Lucy to open it."
Just then to our luck a group of Fiore guards come our way. They probably are off to go to the gate.
"Shoot!" Jellal says and we all hide near an alley nearby. By the time the street was cleared we hear a big boom. I fly up and my eyes widen.
"Guys," I say loudly. "Its to late."
"Crap crap crap.." Jellal says. "Who's there? Who did it?"
"Lucy! She was convinced. But she realized it was a mistake too late. They're coming. The dragons."
Some dragons I recognize come through the big opened gates near the castle. Lucy and Yukino are trying to close the gates. To my shock, Atlas Flame was one of the dragons that came out. He was one of the good dragons of the past. I shake my head. I need to worry about the citizens.
"Cirki. Meredy and I will take care of the citizens. You have to use your powers. You have to. I don't think the dragon slayers are ready. I feel something really bad." Ultear says. Her and Meredy run the opposite direction towards the villages.
"I guess they know I'm going to go find Erza." Jellal says.
I nod at him and he disappears. I decide to go find one of the council members, Lahar who is apparently supposed to be here for the games to convince him to release another dragon slayer, Cobra from the Fiore Prison. If there are dragons there has to be every dragon slayer present. I don't want the events of 400 years ago to repeat again as someone who knows the terror of the past.
