Omnitrix in MCU

Ben and Peter knew that Instagram's success depended on creating massive anticipation. To achieve this, they carefully planned a series of teaser videos, leveraging Twitter's popularity and expanding into TV ads. Each video had a unique theme, designed to captivate different audiences and spark curiosity.

The first teaser video dropped on Twitter with no warning. It opened with a soothing voiceover:

"Life is made of moments. Some we capture. Some we share. And some... we create."

Quick clips of a sunrise, friends laughing, pets playing, and a child blowing out birthday candles filled the screen, evoking warmth and nostalgia. The video ended with a simple message:

"Instagram: Coming Soon. Your moments, your way."

Ben posted it with the hashtag #InstagramLaunch. Within minutes, Twitter exploded with reactions:

@LifeCaptured: "This gave me chills. Can't wait to see what Instagram is all about!" @MomGoals: "Finally, an app that focuses on moments. This is going to be huge!" @TechBuzz: "These kids are unstoppable. First Twitter, now this? What's next, teleportation?"

Peter leaned back, grinning. "I think they liked it."

Ben smirked. "Liked it? They're already hooked. Let's keep the momentum going."

Two days later, the second teaser launched. It began with a dull, gray photo of a beach that instantly transformed into a vibrant, filtered image.

The voiceover said:

"See the world through a different lens. Share it with the world."

The video showcased how Instagram's filters could transform ordinary moments into extraordinary ones, ending with a countdown:

"5 days to go."

The response was electric:

@ArtisticSoul: "Filters that don't look overdone? Sign me up! #InstagramLaunch"

@TravelVibes: "I'm going to make my vacation pics look stunning. Who's ready for Instagram?" @PhotoPro: "As a photographer, I can already tell this is going to be addictive."

Three days before the launch, Ben and Peter released the third teaser, focusing on Instagram's Stories feature. The video showed snippets of someone's day: a morning coffee, a walk in the park, a sunset, and a movie night.

The voiceover added:

"Some stories are too good to keep forever. Share them for a day, and let the world see your magic."

The clip ended with the tagline:

"Your day, your way. Instagram—launching in 3 days."

Public reaction was overwhelming:

@DailyStoryteller: "Stories that vanish after 24 hours? This is genius!"

@BloggerVibes: "This feature is going to change the way influencers work. I'm ready!" @TrendWatcher: "Three days to go, and I'm already obsessed. Instagram is all I can think about." 

The final teaser launched the day before Instagram's debut. It featured emotional scenes of people connecting: a family video-calling, friends tagging each other in posts, and a couple sharing a memory.

"It's not just about sharing photos," the voiceover said. "It's about sharing you."

The screen faded to reveal the timer:

"1 day to go."

The teaser struck a chord:

@FamilyFirst: "I teared up watching this. Instagram is going to bring people closer together." @LoveConnects: "This isn't just an app—it's a movement. Can't wait for tomorrow!" @ConnectedWorld: "Instagram's teasers have been masterpieces. These kids know how to build hype!" 

To reach a broader audience, Ben invested in TV ads and billboards. The commercials mirrored the teaser videos but added a new layer of excitement by showing the Instagram logo in vibrant animations.

One TV ad showcased people uploading photos and sharing stories with a tagline:

"Capture. Share. Connect. Instagram launches this Friday."

The public reaction to the TV commercials was phenomenal. Social media buzzed with comments like:

@TVLover: "Just saw the Instagram ad on TV. My whole family is hyped now!"

@CityBillboards: "Everywhere I go, I see Instagram billboards. These guys are taking over!" @AdCritic: "These ads are on par with the biggest tech launches. Genius marketing!" 

Ben added a countdown timer to Twitter's homepage, and every user was greeted with the ticking clock. It built a sense of urgency, especially with the message:

"Something amazing is coming. Stay tuned."

The timer became a trending topic itself, with hashtags like #InstagramCountdown and #ComingSoon dominating the platform.

Finally, the day arrived. The countdown timer on Twitter hit zero, and a celebratory animation filled the screen, directing users to download Instagram. Fireworks exploded across the interface, and the hashtag #InstagramLaunch shot to the top of the trending list.

Public reactions poured in:

@LaunchDay: "Instagram is LIVE, and it's everything I hoped for. Filters, Stories, and more!" @TrendSetters: "Day 1, and Instagram is already my favorite app. These kids are brilliant!" @FutureTech: "This is the biggest app launch of the year. Instagram is here to stay!" 

Within hours, Instagram hit a million downloads. Tech blogs, news channels, and influencers raved about the app. Ben and Peter watched in awe as their creation took on a life of its own.

Ben leaned back in his chair, grinning. "Peter, we just changed the game. Again."

Peter nodded, scrolling through the endless tweets and posts. "And the best part? We're just getting started."

News anchors covered the launch extensively:

"The masterminds behind Twitter have done it again. Instagram is taking the world by storm." "With over a million downloads in its first day, Instagram proves it's here to dominate the social media space."

The launch of Instagram was more than just a tech event—it was a cultural shift. Within a week, it became an integral part of people's routines. Across the world, individuals and businesses embraced the platform, each using it in unique and creative ways.

For millions, the day now began with Instagram. Coffee lovers snapped artistic photos of their steaming mugs, adding filters like "Golden Glow" or "Warm Breeze" to perfect their shots. Fitness enthusiasts shared stories of their morning jogs, their sneakers pounding against scenic trails. From early risers to those still lying in bed, Instagram became the go-to app for connecting with the world before the first sip of coffee.

@MorningBliss: "My sunrise runs look magical with Instagram's filters. Totally hooked!" @DailyBrew: "Best part of my morning? Capturing my coffee art and sharing it with the world!" 

Photographers, designers, and content creators flocked to Instagram in droves. The app gave them a powerful platform to showcase their work. Aspiring chefs posted recipes accompanied by tantalizing images of gourmet meals, while painters and sculptors shared timelapse videos of their creations.

Small businesses also quickly realized Instagram's potential. Boutiques displayed their latest clothing lines, bakeries posted daily specials, and tech startups teased upcoming products through stories and posts.

@ArtVibes: "I sold two paintings today through Instagram. Can't believe how fast my art is reaching people!"

@SweetBitesBakery: "Thanks to Instagram, our cupcakes sold out in hours. People keep messaging us for more!" 

Celebrities and influencers were some of Instagram's most enthusiastic adopters. Actors shared behind-the-scenes glimpses from movie sets, musicians posted snippets of their rehearsals, and influencers used Stories to connect directly with fans. The app gave them a way to bypass traditional media and speak directly to their audience.

Instagram's meteoric rise set off alarm bells in boardrooms across the globe. Established social media platforms like Facebook and Myspace found their user engagement plummeting. Users were abandoning old platforms in favor of Instagram's sleek design, innovative features, and vibrant community.

News channels and tech blogs were flooded with headlines:

"Instagram Revolutionizes Social Media: Should Facebook Be Worried?" "Tech Giants Scramble as Instagram Captures Millennials and Gen Z." 

Stark Industries:

Tony Stark wasn't one to be outdone. As someone who loved being in the spotlight, he appreciated Instagram's potential to amplify his brand. Stark Industries launched a verified account showcasing cutting-edge technology and updates about new projects. However, Stark couldn't help but see the strategic value of owning Instagram.

One day, Ben received an unexpected call.

"Ben Tennyson," Tony's voice drawled through the line, "you're the kid who built Twitter and Instagram, right?"

"Uh, yeah?" Ben replied cautiously.

"Here's the deal. I'll buy Instagram and Twitter for... let's say, $5 billion. Cash. What do you say?"

Ben chuckled nervously. "I think I'll pass, Mr. Stark."

"Smart kid," Tony replied. "But if you ever change your mind, call me."

Oscorp:

Norman Osborn took a different approach. He saw Instagram's potential to dominate not just social media but also advertising. Oscorp launched aggressive ad campaigns on the platform, promoting their latest tech and products. Meanwhile, Osborn himself sent emissaries to negotiate a deal to buy Instagram, offering a staggering $8 billion. Ben refused.

"Your loss, kid," Osborn muttered.

Roxxon Corporation:

Roxxon, known for its ruthless tactics, wasn't thrilled about Instagram empowering small businesses. Their monopolistic hold on certain markets was slipping as smaller competitors thrived on the platform. Roxxon began funding rival apps to compete with Instagram, but none of them gained traction.

When news broke that Stark Industries, Oscorp, and Roxxon had tried to acquire Instagram, the public's reaction was overwhelming. On Twitter, the hashtags #KeepInstagramIndependent and #BenTennysonTheGOAT trended for days.

@SmallBizHero: "Ben refusing to sell Instagram is the best thing I've heard all week. Finally, someone who cares about users!"

@TechCritic22: "If Stark, Osborn, and Roxxon all want Instagram, you KNOW it's a game-changer. Ben's a genius." 

Ben and Peter watched the unfolding drama from their dorm room. Peter glanced at his phone, scrolling through tweets. "You know, with all these offers, people probably think we're billionaires already."

Ben grinned. "Well, they're not entirely wrong. But Instagram isn't about the money. It's about changing how people connect."

Peter smirked. "Still, turning down $8 billion? Bold move."

Ben shrugged. "If we sold, they'd ruin it. Instagram's ours, and it's going to stay that way."

As the week progressed, Instagram's growth continued to skyrocket. New features rolled out to keep users engaged, including live streaming and a collaborative post feature. People loved the app, and businesses thrived on its advertising tools.
