8. What Is SWORD's Next Move?

When Wanda extended the barrier surrounding Westview, there were only three SWORD agents that appeared to escape. Tyler Hayward and two colleagues just about managed to outrun the expanding Hex, and when he called out for a response from anyone else, he received nothing back but radio silence.

What then, is Hayward and SWORD's next move? Though only three agents escaped, there is still an entire organisation to run back to, with resources likely stretching far beyond the imagination of fans right now, so what will Hayward bring back to the Hex to fight Wanda?

Since he perceives her to be a terrorist, he will surely return with all the force that he can muster, as many resources pulled from as many departments of SWORD as possible, but what exactly will this look like?

Could the reason he has been so interested in Vision and his decaying vibranium be that he has some altered form of Ultron waiting to be deployed? If SWORD could get their hands on Vision's body and begin taking him apart and experimenting, there's no reason to think that they didn't do a similar thing with Ultron after the Battle of Sokovia. He has already told Monica that they are focusing on robotics and AI more than ever before after all. Nothing is out of the realms of possibility in this show, even some ill-conceived Vision-Ultron hybrid.
