Chase Fight

An X Meets Y cross between a Chase Scene and a Fight Scene. At least two combatants are battling in a normal way, but their fight takes them on a journey as well. This could be because one or both fighters is trying to get to a specific destination, or maybe because they're just trying to get away from the beatdown they might be taking.

When on the ground, this could feature copious amounts of Le Parkour and Roof Hopping, these fights tend to go anywhere and everywere. This is also highly improbable, as the fighters, if human, would likely be tired out of their minds to fight, run and give snappy quips at the same time. Of course, the fighters could be simply superhuman.

If this is seen as a video game mechanic in a Fighting Game, that is Free-Floor Fighting. See also Get Back Here Boss.

Examples of Chase Fight include:

In Soul Eater this is how the fight between Sid and Mifune goes (while essentially snowboarding without the boards no less).

Comic Books

Professional Wrestling

ECW matches tended to go all over the arena.

Video Games

This tends to be a recurring element in Sonic the Hedgehog games:
- In Sonic Adventure 2, the final battle between Sonic and Shadow is a chase along an abandoned space station. The preceding levels are even called Final Chase and Final Rush.
- Sonic Advance 2 was almost exclusively this style of Boss Battle.
- In games with Super Sonic only final bosses, this tends to be the format they fall under.
The cutscene after final fight between Travis and Henry in No More Heroes features this, as a visual metaphor for them trying to "find that exit they call paradise"
In Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, both fights against Cynder.
You'll probably have these in the Assassin's Creed series.
Mirrors Edge. AND HOW!
- Then again, the REAL chase fight scene is with Celeste and you guys end up fighting on top a ship crate with Le Parkour action.
