Dirk is a skilled fighter and battles it out with five Russian soldiers like a bolt of lightning striking multiple trees at once. The soldiers fell in a matter of seconds, and Pitt was clearly the victor. Pitt dresses sharp as well. Pitt can strike down any competition when it comes to capturing the heart of a lady. He outclasses everyone else. Pitt even makes thunderous entrances: “In that instant of light, he made out a tall man with dark hair and rugged features staring at him through cool, piercing eyes. Then the stranger blended into the darkness again. As the thunder rumbled away, a seemingly disembodied voice asked, ‘Are you Gene Seagram?’” (Cussler 87). Pitt confronts Seagram for the first time during a thunderstorm and gives him a bit of a scare. Dirk appears to Gene in the interval lightning strikes and appears threatening, almost invulnerable. One might say, as AC/DC did in their song “Thunderstruck” that Pitt had hit Seagram with a little extra oomph: “Thunderstruck! Now we're shaking at the knees, Could I come again please?” (Young, Young). Dirk gets up in Gene’s face and tells him right away how he feels about him. Seagram was shaking, with both fury and fear. He was taken aback by Dirk’s comments, and thus began Pitt and Seagram’s strong antipathy for each
