===The Hobbit===
The Elves first appear in the novel when Bilbo approaches them, causing the elves to flee in fear. They return with weapons and capture Thorin Oakenshield and then his companions (apart from Bilbo). They later appear to the Battle, fighting alongside Thranduil, the men of Dale and the Dwarves of Erebor. 
After the battle they retreat back to Mirkwood with Bilbo and Gandalf. They offer to let them stay there, but Bilbo and Gandalf decline and decide to go around the forest. 
Later, Legolas, the king's son became a member of the Fellowship of the Ring. They were busy fighting off Sauron's forces coming to the east. 
The elves eventually left Middle-earth to join their kin in the Grey Havens.
