==Biography==
===Conscription===
===Conscription===
Keiichi-047 was a genetically, intellectually, and physically gifted child chosen for the [[SPARTAN-II]] project. He was abducted by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and replaced with a [[flash clone ]] when he was around six years old. He and seventy-four other children were taken to [[Reach]] in the Epsilon Eridani system. There, he was trained by the [[dumb AI|"dumb"AI]],[[ Déjà]] and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], with the two serving as the Spartans' teacher and drill instructor, respectively. In [[2519]], he was taken alongside his fellow trainees to a [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]] for a mission that required each trainee to be left alone in the woods with a only a single piece of a map. It was up to them to find one another so that they could piece the map together and locate the designated extraction point. The mission was ultimately a success. At another point during training, Keiichi and the others traveled to [[Emerald Cove]] for an underwater mission. There, they abandoned Mendez and lived on their own on an island for a few days. By July 14, [[2523]], Keiichi and his fellow Spartan-IIs had begun facing the formidable and ruthless UNSC Marine Corps' [[Tango Company]] in simulated war games. On March 9, 2525, Keiichi and the rest of the Spartan-II candidates underwent their [[augmentation]] procedures at [[Medical Facility Endurance]] orbiting Reach. After successfully enduring the procedures, Keiichi later attended a military funeral aboard the carrier, the [[UNSC Atlas]], in the [[Lambda Serpentis]] system for the Spartans who died during the process. Afterwards, they all returned to Reach for their final training phase in the [[Highland Mountains]].
Around [[2517#July|July, 2517]], Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] and her team processed the one hundred fifty candidates of the Spartan-II program with Keiichi being one of them.{{Ref/Game|HR|Part=Halo: Reach Limited Edition|PartText=Limited Edition|Dr. Halsey's personal journal|Detail=July 21, 2517}}


After the [[Covenant]] attack on [[Harvest]] and the beginning of the [[Human-Covenant War]], Keiichi and the rest of the Spartan-IIs were brought to the [[Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex]], where Rear [[Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] and the AI, [[Beowulf]], briefed them on the emerging Covenant threat. In response, the training of Keiichi and the rest of the Spartan-IIs was accelerated, and the Spartans were sent to [[Chi Ceti IV]] in the Chi Ceti system to receive their new [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] from the [[Damascus Materials Testing Facility]] in order to aid in combat against the alien threat. While en route to Chi Ceti IV aboard the [[Paris-class heavy frigate]], the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}, they were attacked by the Covenant warship, ''[[Unrelenting]]''. The ''Commonwealth'' was able to ward off the ''Unrelenting'' and the Spartans were deployed to Chi Ceti IV with Halsey, where they each recieved a set of armor. While the Spartans were returning to the ''Commonwealth'', the ''Unrelenting'' returned and engaged the frigate. To provide aid to the ''Commonwealth'', John had Keiichi and the other Spartan-IIs use [[thruster pack]]s to embark towards the ''Unrelenting'' so that they could destroy the warship with [[Anvil-II air-to-surface missile|Anvil-II AS missiles]], though only John, Kelly, and Sam made it aboard
On [[2517#September|September 10, 2517]], Keiichi-047 was selected as part of the final seventy-five candidates for the Spartan-II program, where Doctor Catherine Halsey gave the order to the [[Dumb AI|"Dumb"]] [[Artificial intelligence]] [[Déjà]] to give the order round them up. Several retrieval teams proceeded to kidnap and replace the children, including Keiichi, with [[Flash cloning|flash clones]],{{Ref/Comic|FoRBC|Issue=1}} with the children placed into [[Cryonics|cryostatis]] and rushed straight to the planet [[Reach]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=HTFORC3|TFOR|Chapter=3}}


Near the end of the campaign Keiichi aided the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} during an engagement with a [[Covenant]] armored force near [[Harvest]]'s northern pole. Keiichi charged the Covenant's position, killing several [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]] with his [[AIE-486H machine gun]]. Upon reaching the Covenant's main line he hijacked a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]] and used it against the remaining Covenant forces, quickly turning the tide of the skirmish in the UNSC's favor.<ref name="Wars"/>
===Training===
Once awoken from cryostasis on Reach at the [[Reach Naval Officers Academy]], shortly before 2300 hours on September 23, Keiichi and seventy-four other children were led into an amphitheater through four sets of double doors, each accompanied by a [[UNSC Navy|naval]] drill instructor. With Doctor Catherine Halsey, and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]] waiting for them on the stage. Halsey proceeded to tell the Spartans the truth about why they were taken and that they will be busy the following day.{{Ref/Reuse|HTFORC3}}

Around 0530 hours on September 24, Keiichi and the other candidates were woken and were formally introduced to Chief Petty Officer Mendez and the rest of the instructors. The seventy-five candidates proceeded to go though their first day of training. Mendez and the instructors put the candidates through exercises, eventually taking them for a run around the campus taking them to the entrance of the Naval Academy. At the end of the run the candidates were introduced to the Artificial Intelligence Déjà, who stated she will be the candidates teacher, and began to teach them for the day after they entered the building. Déjà proceeded to teach the candidates about Thermopylae, and the 300 Spartans who battled the Persians at the [[Battle of Thermopylae]]. After class, the candidates were taken by Chief Petty Officer Mendez to "the playground", where the play played a game of [[Ring the Bell]] with the losing team not getting dinner, where Keiichi's team didn't lose the game.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HTFORC4|TFOR|Chapter=4}}

During one of the training operations on [[2519#July|July 12, 2519]], each Spartan trainee was dropped off at a different point in the preserve and was tasked with reaching an extraction point; the last Spartan to reach the point was to be left behind and forced to walk back.

Upon reaching the point, the Spartans encountered a [[squad]] of [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marines]]. When candidate [[Samuel-034]] feigned an injury before the Marines, one of them moved to attack him. However, as part of their plan, the rest of the Spartans attacked the Marine by throwing rocks at him and knocked him unconscious.

Keiichi-047 is a SPARTAN-II supersoldier of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command. He served during the Harvest campaign in February 2531.[1]

Biography[edit]

Conscription[edit]

Around July, 2517, Doctor Catherine Halsey and her team processed the one hundred fifty candidates of the Spartan-II program with Keiichi being one of them.[2]

On September 10, 2517, Keiichi-047 was selected as part of the final seventy-five candidates for the Spartan-II program, where Doctor Catherine Halsey gave the order to the "Dumb" Artificial intelligence Déjà to give the order round them up. Several retrieval teams proceeded to kidnap and replace the children, including Keiichi, with flash clones,[3] with the children placed into cryostatis and rushed straight to the planet Reach.[4]

Training[edit]

Once awoken from cryostasis on Reach at the Reach Naval Officers Academy, shortly before 2300 hours on September 23, Keiichi and seventy-four other children were led into an amphitheater through four sets of double doors, each accompanied by a naval drill instructor. With Doctor Catherine Halsey, and Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez waiting for them on the stage. Halsey proceeded to tell the Spartans the truth about why they were taken and that they will be busy the following day.[4]

Around 0530 hours on September 24, Keiichi and the other candidates were woken and were formally introduced to Chief Petty Officer Mendez and the rest of the instructors. The seventy-five candidates proceeded to go though their first day of training. Mendez and the instructors put the candidates through exercises, eventually taking them for a run around the campus taking them to the entrance of the Naval Academy. At the end of the run the candidates were introduced to the Artificial Intelligence Déjà, who stated she will be the candidates teacher, and began to teach them for the day after they entered the building. Déjà proceeded to teach the candidates about Thermopylae, and the 300 Spartans who battled the Persians at the Battle of Thermopylae. After class, the candidates were taken by Chief Petty Officer Mendez to "the playground", where the play played a game of Ring the Bell with the losing team not getting dinner, where Keiichi's team didn't lose the game.[5]

The next day on September 25, the candidates were taught about wolves and how they work together to get their pray from Déjà, when played Ring the Bell in the playground after class.[5] On September 28, 2517; the Spartans were given hair cuts.[6]

During one of the training operations on July 12, 2519, each Spartan trainee was dropped off at a different point in the preserve and was tasked with reaching an extraction point; the last Spartan to reach the point was to be left behind and forced to walk back. After being dropped off, the Spartans regrouped and made their way to the extraction point together. Upon reaching the point, the Spartans encountered a squad of UNSC Marines. When candidate Samuel-034 feigned an injury before the Marines, one of them moved to attack him. However, as part of their plan, the rest of the Spartans attacked the Marine by throwing rocks at him and knocked him unconscious. The Spartans then enacted a similar plan on the rest of the Marines and eventually defeated the entire squad. Afterwards, the Spartans reached a D96-TCE Albatross and, with Déjà's help, commandeered the dropship and left the training preserve.[7]

Around September 27, 2520, Carris-137 accidentally killed one of the candidate handlers, causing the first casualty of the program, as a result all the candidates attended the handlers memorial services, and Doctor Halsey encouraged Déjà to emphasize the history of military training and how accidents happen to the candidates.[8]

On August 22, 2524, the Spartans were rerouted to a Special Forces camp on the other side of reach due to interested parties within the Office of Naval Intelligence.[9]

On March 9, 2525, the Spartans began their augmentations.[10]

Harvest Campaign[edit]

Battle Group Phi and Keiichi against the Covenant.

On February 4, 2531, near the end of the Harvest campaign, Keiichi aided Battle Group Phi of the UNSC Spirit of Fire during an engagement with a Covenant armored force near Harvest's northern pole. Keiichi charged the Covenant's position, killing several Sangheili and Unggoy with his AIE-486H machine gun. Upon reaching the Covenant's main line he hijacked a Wraith and used it against the remaining Covenant forces, quickly turning the tide of the skirmish in the UNSC's favor.[1]

After the engagement he reported COM glitches due to the upgrades to his neural interface with Serina the Spirit of Fire's onboard artificial intelligence, in which she said she would prepare a sub-routine for Keiichi's next diagnostic.[1]

Status[edit]

Around March 3, 2558 when a Catalog unit was looking into Keiichi's status, he was listed as MIA.[11]

Trivia[edit]
