Takes place at the same time as the previous mission with guya and Urato, this time Momoka is sent on mission with an unexpected partner.
Once again, your loadout of four agents gives so many possibilities for interaction! I couldn't have guessed ahead of time how a Momoka+Inasuke mission would go, but it was a joy to read! Momoka's inner turmoil about being able to do a good job as the lead agent was cute, and made the ending where she leaped into action all the better. And Inasuke's pining away is kind of embarrassing for Momoka, but it was sweet how it culminated in him being legitimately supportive of her when he saw she was down.
One grammatical note: I think the sentence,
"In fact, he exuded such intimidating aura that made Inasuke squeak and hide behind Momoka, but left her shocked."
would read better as,
"In fact, he exuded such an intimidating aura, that it made Inasuke squeak and hide behind Momoka, but left her shocked."

This is actually a very sweet story! Not only because of the interaction between Momoka and Kaguya, but because it expresses the agents' (and your) connection to the canon. I've seen the phrase "canon love" used once in a while in older stories to describe supporting the word worlds, but it's not often shown this clearly in the text. Very nice!
Though I will say, sometimes it's good when writers have a definitive endpoint in mind, so they don't feel obligated to stretch characters and plot out to places that don't make sense for the sake of making the story continue. A longer story isn't necessarily a better one . . . glances at his Heroes DVDs
