Which of these choices would be more appealing to Peter, iyo:

1. Taking power from a True Alpha who hasn't yet developed his full strength

or

2. Taking power from the oldest known bitten werewolf alive (Satomi) who has mastered her skills and is at full strength First, I would like to say that it is more a matter of skill rather than strength with Satomi. Second there is no evidence that a new alpha inherits the same power as the old alpha...as Derek taking Peter's alpha status illustrated. Also, I doubt that killing a true alpha gives you the potential of a true alpha. I say this because I believe all alphas' power originated in a true alpha. It had to be this way for the storyline to make sense....otherwise, in the beginning there would be no alphas to kill to steal alpha status....kinda a "which came first" senario. I propose that in the beginning there were only true alphas, until someone realized you could steal alpha status by defeating that alpha....and it all went down hill from there. That really is the only thing that makes sense. I will say, though, that sometimes the canon doesn't make sense, so this theory could be wrong. So, back to what I was saying...I think the only thing that really matters is the ease with which an alpha can be killed....and Scott is definitely the easiest target, so if I was Peter, that is who I would try to kill. PS....on my phone with this post, so sorry for lack of paragraphs. Yeah, I didn't think that Peter could necessarily absorb either one's skills or abilities and i totally agree with you there. Just wondering if one might have the potential to give a stronger charge than the other. As the lesser developed of the two, Scott might make the easier target - but would there be any advantage to taking down Satomi, instead?
