There were many reasons why Chaonis was considered Dangerous.
First, obviously, was his sphere. As a senshi, he embodied the idea. His powers were strong and uncontrollable, unpredictable. he was strong. Violent. He had a bad attitude and no real training in conventional means. He had no history lessons, no sense of loyalty that drew from those like him. No, what he fought for was his own creation, and his morals shifted to accommodate his methods and the need of the moment. He didn't fight for any long gone queen or for a planet in some far space. He didn't fight to end a war.
He fought because he liked it, and because if he didn't there would be faces left unpunched.
That didn't mean he wasn't loyal, though. He was loyal to his friends. He was loyal to people like him, other senshi. If he fought for anything, it was to keep them alive. And that was more than enough.
Except recently he hadn't been able to fight. He needed to find something, anything, and it needed to be big. He called Asclepius, his friend and ally, to see if she had any leads. Any revenge she needed to take, or heads to hunt. He needed to find something or someone on the other side, youma or nega or whatever other agent of chaos, to fight.
Or he needed her to bring him down from the state he was in now, as revved up and thus even more dangerous than usual as he was.

Asclepius felt like she knew Chaonis fairly well, especially since he was still the only one who knew her civilian identity. She knew his, but she did not know if she was the only one. It did not much matter to her; it hardly seemed like one of those things to be exclusive about. Just extremely careful.
Still, though, it sounded like something was up, even if the Senshi of Medicine was not sure what. Few things seemed to bother him, it seemed. Regardless, he had called her and so she had come.
Outwardly unconcerned, she waved as she joined him, though he had probably felt her approach. Or at least her energy signature. Asclepius concentrated on the feeling of the Eternal senshi in the area as she came, trying to figure out if there was anything about it that made it stand out obviously as that of Chaonis, but the brown-haired girl was not sure she had met enough other Eternals for a real basis of comparison.
"Hey, what's up?" she asked, looking around as she got close enough that it was not necessary to yell her greeting.

Chaonis was a little less protective of his identity, and yet he still only managed to tell a few people about it. It was just not something he cared about too much, with other senshi. He didn't really care who they were, and if they cared who he was it was up to them to ask. If not, he'd just as soon go on not knowing.
He rarely brought it up.
But there were advantages to knowing. Like hanging out was better, and just being friends was easier.
Which was important, because Chaonis wasn't very good at the whole friend thing.
When Asclepius arrived he grinned and waved at her. He was being friendly, which was a bad sign. A sign that said she should be on her guard. He was up to something. He was, in a way. he had called her to try and get over this feeling of impotence and pent up rage, but that was subconscious. Outwardly, he was going to use her to see if she knew anything he could punch.
"Let's go youma hunting. That's what we're supposed to do, right? Good guy stuff. Let's go do that."

"Oh-ho," Asclepius replied, resting one hand on her hip as she came to stand before him. "Suddenly we're all excited about being good guys?" Chaonis had never quite really given her reason to doubt it, and not just because he was a senshi. But he was also hardly one to talk about it, in her experience.
She studied him carefully for a moment, then conceded, "Well, youma-hunting is more or less what we're supposed to be doing day to day anyway, so, sure. Let's hunt some monsters."
Closing her eyes, she tried to sense what was nearby. Chaonis could theoretically do the same, but, for whatever reason, he had wanted her along. So she might as well pick up some slack. It was still difficult to place exactly where energy signatures came from, but Asclepius could feel at least one that was within easy reach.
Asclepius raised one hand to point, at least able to give a vague indication of direction. I think one that way, towards that really ugly parking deck they've had under construction for like eight months now. She opened one eye to look at Chaonis, partly to see if he appeared to know which one she was talking about, and partly to make sure he could sense the same thing.

Chaonis grinned at her, but it was far from innocent.
"What? Of course I like being a good guy. Come on, don't be silly," he said, scoffing as if that was the dumbest thing he had ever heard. Of course he was a good guy, who would ever be confused about that? His motives were always so pure, and he never did anything wrong.
He was hurt she would think anything but.
"Alright, monsters it is."
He was glad they had agreed, and let her take up looking for a mark. He wasn't going to do the boring work, and he was too pent up to waste his time with things like planning and searching. Maybe that was why he had invited her, knowing she would do all the things that he found annoying and didn't want to do for himself. Well, it might have been part of it, but not the whole reason.
When she pointed he all but leaped and darted off immediately. He did spare her a glance and a grin, a slight tilt of his head to get her to follow, knowing where she meant and zooming off to get there. The Eternal was clearly very eager, though he did slow to make sure she could catch up.
