Vampires and Elves. Go!

Funny story.

It was just the other morning -- I was having a bit of trouble drifting off to sleep.

We all know that reading Twilight is a road that never leads to rest. I decided to curb my insomnia the old fashioned way... a Lord of the Rings movie marathon. Since I hadn't watched them in such a long time, this method didn't work either, but as I fell deep into the depths of Mordor an interesting thought occured to me. Vampires and Elves have a lot in common.

Commonalities:

Ridiculously Attractive

Have special powers

Heightened senses (sight, smell, hearing, etc.)

Super strong and fast 

Live forever 

Sort of reclusive - Don't really like to befriend humans

Think they are better than humans (with good reason)

Well dressed 

Great hair

Pale

Don't need sleep (I'm pretty sure I remember Legolas mentioning that. They rest, but they don't sleep. Maybe I am wrong. huh.)

Differences:

Elves don't need to drink blood... but I wouldn't put it past them.

Elves can choose to become mortal

Elves can't turn humans into Elves

Vampires can only be killed by fire (sort of like the one ring)

And now for the question we've all been waiting for. Who would win in a fight?

   vs   

Well, lets see... Edward is probably faster, maybe stronger, and more durable. I am unaware of Legolas having any special powers... unless stating the obvious counts, but I doubt that would help against a vampire. I think he pretty much relies on arrows and good looks. I wouldn't be surprised if Elves developed an arrow that could pierce Vampire skin, but without such a weapon, Legolas would either have to seduce Edward into the fiery depths of Mordor, or annoy Edward to death with his thoughts. 

I bet Lady Galadriel would be evenly matched against a vampire. She's pretty sneaky, that Lady of the Wood. I'm pretty sure she can tear people apart with her mind. 

Scary!
