(Before Recorded History)
Two characters (usually hero and villain) run at each other during a fight and attack when they run past each other. Sort of like they’re jousting. After they run past each after, they stop and a distance and one character (usually the overconfident villain) notices that he was severely injured and falls (maybe dies) while the other character stands still. Usually both expected before the fight for the outcome to be the opposite.
