Forewarned is Forearmed Anthology

Summary:
Anthology containing:
Forewarned
When Akira Kurusu is ten years old, his parents die in an accident.
One year later, he comes to Inaba. He doesn't expect to find family there, and he doesn't expect to find a hidden world of monsters inside the TV.
He finds both.
Four Birthdays
When Akira is eleven, he comes to Inaba, finds a family, and makes a home. When he is sixteen, he is arrested and taken away from Tokyo.
In the years between, he grows up.
Four birthdays, four presents from the people he cares about.
Forewarned: Arena
Set between Forewarned and Forearmed, covering Persona 4: Arena, and Persona 4: Arena Ultimax.
A few months after Yu leaves Inaba, he comes back to spend Golden Week with his friends.
Akira's looking forward to seeing him again. He is, really. Except that now they've all been dragged into a fighting tournament in the TV World, and he's not sure what he's going to do if he has to fight Yu.
Dance
The summer after Akira's first year in Inaba--the year of fighting Shadows in TVs and learning what it means to be a Trickster--he finds out that sometimes fighting isn't the only way to deal with Shadows.
Sometimes, there's dancing.
(Covering Persona 4: Dancing all Night)
Forearmed
When Akira was eleven years old, he came to Inaba, where he fell into a TV and awoke his Persona for the first time.
Five years later he is arrested and shipped off to Tokyo. There, he finds a Velvet Room that doesn't seem quite like the one he remembers, Lavenza missing, and a whole new world of Shadows--and this time, there's no Investigation Team to help save the day.
He never could learn how to stay out of trouble.
Forewarned: Inaba
Akira comes to Inaba when he's eleven years old. When he's sixteen, he's arrested for an alleged assault, and in another month he'll be sent away from home, stuck in Tokyo for a year.
...unless he can find a way to clear his name first.
A what if spinoff of my Forewarned is Forearmed series, where Akira is never sent away to Tokyo.
Foreborne
A bit of backstory for my Forewarned is Forearmed series, exploring the lives of Akira's parents before their deaths.
