S.W.O.R.D save thousands! Crusaders in area!

The agent believed to be at the centre of the panic at both S.H.I.E.L.D and S.W.O.R.D turned up in spectacular fashion and was revealed to be Agent Brand, the head of the agency that is sworn to protect the Earth from extra-terrestrial threats.

Agent Brand was found on the Eastern coast of southern Egypt with over a thousand people she had just rescued from a group of alien people traffickers. The victims had been snatched from coastlines all over the world and were disoriented and eager to return home following their period of captivity.

Brand was quick stress that her agency, known as S.W.O.R.D is more than capable of detecting and dealing with threats from both space and other dimensions if need be.

'S.W.O.R.D is a highly skilled task force that you never see in action and you never see us in action because we have dealt with the threat before it becomes a serious problem. This is a typical case for us up to the part where it took me a week to bring the bad guys down.

No arrests were made as the culprits have been ejected from our space already.

I would like thank the Crusaders who aided in the rescue and who applied themselves to the task with competence.'

It is rare for the Crusaders to be seen outside of the U.K and some have suggested this foray into the international scene may be something to do with the mysterious message left by Sigur Karlson earlier today though we cannot confirm that this is the case.
