3rd person POV:

Hisui: In response to the impending dragon attack, we commence the Eclipse Cannon firing sequence, now !!

Darton: 'We are finally opening the gates...'

Arcadios: 'I'll have to bear witness to the princess' will to the very end...'

Hisui: I pray that we can eliminate them all with one strike. It will take many years for us to amass such a quantity of magic again.

Mew: Well, well... This is quite the spectacle we've stumbled upon...

Carla: It looks like they're about to open the gates.

Happy: Where did Loki run off to ?

Pantherlily: He did so because we can't use magic freely around that thing.

'Rogue': Someone stopped us from opening the gates. Because of their intrusion, they remained shut. We couldn't use the Eclipse Cannon against the ten thousand dragons... Which inevitably led to the destruction of the world.

Arcadios: ... There's no need for you to hide... Show yourselves...

Mew: We've been discovered !!

Happy: W- We have not done anything wrong !

Carla: if you're with the minister, then...

Darton: the circumstances have changed.

Hisui: Fairy Tail... My humblest apologies for what transpired... Given our predicament, we'll issue a formal apology at a later date.

Wendy: C- Carla, it's the princess !

Hisui: Which reminds me... Congratulations on your victory at the Grand Magic games.

Happy: Victory !!

Wendy: they pulled through !

Mew: What else was to expect ? Of course they did.

Pantherlily: You didn't sound so sure of it sooner.

Lucy: But... Why are you opening the gates ? The dragons aren't here yet.

Hisui: they know about the dragons...

Arcadios: Yes, they are aware of everything. Speaking of which, where's the future "You" ?

Pantherlily: ... She was killed... There was a,other man from the future.

Arcadios: What ?!

Lucy: That man said that I would interfere with the opening of the gates and therefore the Eclipse Cannon wouldn't be fired.

Arcadios: So he tried to kill you ?

Hisui: ... Will you interfere ?

Lucy: I would never ! It's just that I don't understand why you're opening the gates before they even arrive !

Hisui: It's simple... It takes time to charge the cannon. We wouldn't make it in time if we simply waited for them to appear.

Lucy: can that thing... really defeat all those dragons ?

Arcadios: I cannot say for certain.. As we speak, jis majesty is making preparations for a worse case scenario...

Your POV:

King: ... And that is the current situation. We know it must be taxing for you seeing as you've just participated in the Grand Magic Games... But right now, our kingdom is in grave danger. Or so I was told.

*King of Fiore, Toma E. Fiore*

Makarov: T- Ten thousand dragons... ?

Evergreen: We couldn't do anything against Acnologia alone...

Lisanna: But wasn't that one... Unique ?

Cana: Still... We're still talking about ten thousand...

Toma: As of this moment we've decided on executing a plan of a grand scale... the Eclipse plan. We intend to wipe out the ten thousand dragons in one fell swoop. However... Considering the sheer volume of the enemy, several, if not several hundreds, are expected to survive the initial onslaught. Mages of all guilds, I beg of you, to lend us your power. Please... Use your power to defeat the remaining dragons. That is all I ask. I beg of you... save this country.

Mages: OORAH !! OF COURSE !! WE'LL TAKE CARE OF THE LEFTOVERS ! LIKE WE'LL BE DONE IN BY SOME MONSTERS !! THIS COUNTRY WHICH LIVES HAND IN HAND WITH MAGIC... THIS IS OUR COUNTRY !!

Erza: ... Our comrades were captured by the imperial forces...

Soldier: We've just received a report that they've met up with the princess.

"So they're all okay... Good thing."

Gray: You're more chill than I'd expect. You know they're about to use the Eclipse, right ?

"As a Cannon. Not as a time machine. It gets a pass. But if it's true that some used it in the future... Mgnh."

Gajeel: Alright.. Time to get a little crazy !

Sting: Dragons.

Rogue: So... We're up, I guess.

Lector: Do your best, Sting !!

Frosch: Fro will too !

Rufus: Where's our young lady ?

Orga: Dunno.

Ichiya: All the guilds are united~.

Nichiya: What a spectacular perfume~.

Eve; So... A clash between dragons and pegasi...

Hibiki: Let's give it our all.

Ren: Damn... Guess we have no choice but to...

Millianna: Kagura, you need to take it easy for a while.

Kagura: No... I'm going to fight alongside everyone.

Cerberus: WILD !! WHOO !

Mermaid: We're sexy alright~ !

Lyon: Sure brings me back... Fighting alongside you...

Gray: Just be sure to stay out of my way...

Sherria: Is Wendy going to be okay ?

Juvia: I think so.

Jura: A battle, eh ?

Erza: Are you sure you'll be alright ?

"This isn't a question to ask once we can't turn back. Right now, rather than asking whether or not we can make it, we should focus on how we're gonna make it."

Toma: Thank you... Thank you.. Thank you all..

Doranbolt: What a sight. All these mages side by side...

Lahar: The Eclipse.. Simply having it in their possession means they've broken about 30 laws... We should report this back to the headquarters immediately.

Jellal: Lahar... Doranbolt...

Lahar: J- JELLAL ?! Why... Here... ?!

Jellal: I have a request.

Makarov: The town square is where Fairy Tail shall make their stand.

Warren: What about the other guilds ?

Max: They've been assigned to various locations throughout the area...

Cana: You know... You guys really should have given more time for those wounds to heal...

Erza: We'll be fine.

Gray: Thanks to the healers from the military and that girl from Lyon's guild, we've managed to regain quite a bit of mobility...

"If only Wendy was here, maybe we could've healed completely... But anyways, complaining won't bring us anywhere. We've got a welcome party to prepare."

Natsu: You reek of evil... You didn't come here to save the future... Did you ?!

Rogue: The possibility does exists that the gate will fully open even if Lucy is still alive... But i'm certain she'll manage to interfere with the process somewhere along the line... Lucy will prevent the door from opening...

Natsu: She'd never do such a thing !! LUCY WOULD NEVER ROB ALL THESE PEOPLE OF THEIR FUTURE !!

Rogue: You're in my way... I will make sure Lucy takes her last breath...

Natsu: OVER MY DEAD BODY !! LIGHTNING FLAME DRAGON MODE !!

Rogue: So... Is this the power you kept in your back pocket seven years ago ?! If that's so, then...

Natsu: ... UGH !!

Rogue: White Shadow Dragon Mode...

Natsu: Gh- GAAAH !!

Rogue: I've taken the lesson of my defeat... As well as a page from someone else's book. And now, I have attained both light and shadow to bend at my very whim...

Natsu: The... White... Shadow... was...

Rogue: Yes, it was Sting's power... Until I killed him... But that won't happen for quite some time in this timeline...

Natsu: Were you always... Such a heartless son of a bitch... ?

Rogue: of course. And this heartless son of a bitch is going to take your life as well. White Shadow Dragon's...

Meredy: he ran away !!

Ultear: Natsu ! Pull yourself together !! Meredy ! We need to apply first aid immediately !

Meredy: Yes !!

Ultear: .. Don't tell me... This can't be... NATSU !! This is bad !! He's being enveloped by the shadows !!

Soldiers: Look at that !! Humanity's salvation is within our grasp !! Our path to victory is finally upon us !!

Happy: Such intense magic power...

Carla: Indeed... With something like this on our side, wiping out all the dragons no longer seems so far-fetched...

Pantherlily: Magic power that dense concentrated in such a finite space...

mew: This isn't something you see everyday, for sure. To think such a weapon has been developed here...

Wendy: Our future don't seem so bleak now...

Lucy: Yup.

Wendy: Future Lucy will finally be able to rest in peace... L- Lucy... ?

Lucy: No... This door... Must remain closed... I shall seal the doors.. At once... This door must be closed !! This instant !! You mustn't let the doors fully open !

Mew: What ?! Hey, why are you just suddenly against it ?!

Arcadios: What is she saying... ?

Carla: ...'It's already been decided that she'll prevent the door from opening'. Why...

Lucy: PLEASE !! CLOSE THAT DOOR AT ONCE !!

Hisui: Not happening !! This is the only weapon we have to fend off the herd of dragons ! Closing this door right now means we don't get a second chance to use the Eclipse Cannon !!

Lucy: This is not the Eclipse canon !! that door is simply a portal that connects different timelines !

Hisui: Releasing the cumulative magic power that's been collected is the Eclipse Cannon !

Lucy: You're wrong !! i'm telling you that's not the weapon you think it is !!

Arcadios: tread lightly. Do not forget this is the princess you are addressing.

Lucy: that door is connected to... 400 YEARS IN THE PAST !!

*GRAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOO*

Erza: What's that ?

Gray: it's coming from the castle... Wonder if they already fired the Eclipse.

"... Haa... N- No..."

Erza: What ? The Ten thousand dragons ?

"M- maybe... But not where we expected them ! We've all been played !!"

Arcadios: PRINCESS !!

Hisui: I'll be fine !

Lucy: Aaah... No way...

Mew: Please... Tell me I'm the only one seeing things...

mew: A dragon... Just walked through the door !!

Laxus: What was that just now ?!

Sting: have they arrived already ?! They must be at the castle !

"Yes, but no... I knew I should've destroyed that gate when I had the occasion !!"

Erza: What ?

"the whole attack thing was a hoax !! Right as we speak... The dragons are pouring from the Eclipse gates !!"

Mew: THEY'VE ALREADY SHOWN THEMSELVES !! HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN ? THEY'RE ALREADY UPON US !!

Lucy: How do you close the door ?! Snap out of it, princess !!

Hisui: Th- There... On the pedestal...

Soldiers: UWAAAA !! THEY'RE STILL POURING OUT FROM THE DOOR !! PROTECT THE PRINCESS !! STAND YOUR GROUND !!

Lucy: I just have to pull this lever, right ?! Using the power of a celestial mage !!

Hisui: 10,000... Dragons are... Spilling out... from the door...

Wendy: Lucy ! How did you realize what was going on ?!

Lucy: It wasn't me !! I had old man Crux do some investigating this entire time ! He just finished his analysis of that door a short time ago ! This is actually a mechanism that combines celestial magic with the magic from Zeref's book ! The original purpose of this device was to simply control time, and as such, it makes moving through time possible, but right now... We're dealing with a special set of circumstances... Because of the full moon, the magic contained within it is running rampant...

Mew: Lunatic...

Lucy: because of that, it's impossible to control the door... And it just happens to have...

"Connected to 400 years in the past, the very era when dragons still roamed the planet !!"

Erza: But how... ? How is that even possible ?!

"I don't care about the causes ! Right now, all that matter is that dragons are invading !!"

Darton: This... Can't be...

Mew: The door's not closing, Lucy !! At this rate, we really will have to deal with the ten thousand dragons !!

Lucy: WHY ?! Why won't this door close ?!!

Hisui: I've... I've made a horrible miscalculation... I've sealed this world's fate... the dragon's animosity and contempt... Will reduce this world to mere rubble...

Lucy: That doesn't sound like something I want to be a part of !!

Meredy: These earthquakes...

Ultear: Natsu !! Pull yourself together !! What do you want me to do ?!

Natsu: ... I have to go...

Erza: Wait, what are you doing ?!

"is that even a question at this point ?! You know what and where ! This time..."

Natsu: I made a promise...

Lucy: I swore that...

All: I WILL PROTECT THE FUTURE !!
