The Great Golden Crisis of 2012, better known as The Golden Rebellion, was an invasion of the Eastern Shops town Tomville. It started on May 6, 2012, and finally concluded a few days later, on May 9, due to Mayor Kari's arrest. Though other locations were destroyed, the Tom Mall and Tomville took the biggest hit in terms of damages. The golden puffles caused over 300 million wiki bucks (WB$) in damages to Tomville and surrounding areas.

History[edit]
Tomville's first pet store opened up on February 9, 2012 inside the Tom Mall. The first animals for sale were some normal-colored puffles (blue, green, red) and some golden puffles. These golden puffles were very adorable; in fact, one of them was even advertised as sitting in a basket! They sold like wildfire, and most of the penguins of Shops Island were quite pleased.
On May 5, 2012, shortly after Tomville was officially announced and opened by Mayor Kari, the pet shop had grown immensely, with other types of puffles now available for sale. However, the animals' "natural goings" caused the mall to be very smelly, so the pet shop employees and the mayor agreed to move the shop to Tomville. This pet store is still open today, and is known as the Tomville Animal Shelter.
Mama Golden, the mother of every golden puffle at the Tomville Animal Shelter, had just had another litter. However, that wasn't enough- there was a backlog hundreds long for people that wanted Gold Puffles, across Shops Island. Since the owners of the pet shop wanted to make a lot of revenue, they purchased two experimental cloning devices, with the Mayor's approval since he liked the Gold Puffles. Unfortunately, since they were experimental, one of the side effects was that the puffles in the litter could have some mental issues. A giant litter of mentally psycho puffles didn't look good, and it wasn't. The owners had left them on all night, so by the time the machines broke in the morning about 19,000 clones had been "born".
Despite having mental problems, they were also somewhat intelligent, cunning, almost villainous, and well organized.
Crisis[edit]
The Crisis Begins[edit]
On May 6, 2012, at 10:53 PM EDT, the first signal of the Golden Rebellion was sounded off. The new litter of puffles provided Mayor Kari a picture of some golden puffles playing, with the caption "Stampede!" A few minutes later, they stormed their birth home, the animal shelter, and ridded it of all other types of puffles.
The next day, the mayor addressed Tomville's citizens about the crazy golden puffles, and issued a warning to everyone in not just Tomville, but Shops Island as well. These young puffles were quick to catch on, and tried to limit Mayor Kari's ability to speak. After the address, puffle-possessed Johnny couldn't do much, so the puffles began wreaking havoc, starting with the Tom Mall, and then the town's newspaper. They mainly stayed in Tomville and attacked others' speeches, but they eventually got outside the city limits.
The Spread of the Puffles![edit]
By the end of the day on May 7, all of southern Eastern Shops had been colonized by golden puffles. Thankfully, there were no other communities affected here. However, the puffles had spread across the border just south of Bro Town up on to Yuri102212 City, where they attempted to buy a house (they actually got it). They then reeked some more havoc here, and spent the evening in their new house.
A Cure[edit]
In Shops City, word had gotten out about the "stampede", and Snowstormer (the governor of Eastern Shops) had organized an emergency meeting of the Shops Island Council to decide of an extreme way to get rid of the problem, since these puffles had a mental condition that made chocolate good for them. Though scientists unaffected by the puffles in Tomville video-conferenced and suggested that they use toxins to kill the puffles, the council took Jack's suggestion of mobilizing all SIA agents, who at that time served as Shops' tiny military. On the morning of May 8th, the decision was made and all SIA agents were told to get to Eastern Shops ASAP. Some agents that had been in Eastern Shops took to the streets and used their snowball and Deletion guns on the puffles, but expansion was now increasing rather than decreasing.
The Rampage Goes On[edit]
Right as the SIA was being mobilized, the climax of the rebellion was going on. The puffles had now immigrated to Port Chill and destroyed the clothing store. Unlike other instances, the puffles immediately retreated, and went on along to Penguin City. Here, they destroyed the town's mall, the Yoshi Egg Center. May 8 ended with the golden puffles attacking Mario Rk's mall, The Great Mall. This was the last of the attacking, as all of the puffles had been deleted (or so we think).
After the Crisis[edit]
On May 9, 2012, Mayor Kari was taken into custody by Chill57181 at a five-star hotel in Yuri102212 City. He was accused of wrongfully cloning wildlife, and declining to get rid of the puffles (the deletions were unapproved by the mayor). The Eastern Shops Court sentenced Mayor Kari to ten days in prison, but he was let out early on bond.
Due to the trauma she was put through of seeing her litter's clones being deleted, "Mama Golden" was released back into the wild to live the rest of her life in the wilderness. It is rumored by some that she is organizing any leftover clones for a second riot, but nobody knows for sure.
The SIA and its agents were praised for a job well done, quickly and humanely handling a situation that could have been a lot worse. It was their first test as a large military/defense force, and thus after this event the Shops Island Council started considering getting a larger, well trained army that could handle any threats. The Agents that took part were also give a medal and a ribbon for their service. When Mayor Kari's jail term ended, major changes were made to the Tomville Animal Shelter to ensure this crisis would never happen again.
- The sane and living golden puffles were sent to a large grass field in southern Eastern Shops for a few weeks while scientists investigated the incident. The puffles have since returned.
- Because of Mama Golden's "litter", golden puffles and other puffles are shipped from a puffle farm somewhere far away.
- In July 2012, Tomville passed a law in which residents can only own at most two puffles.
- Every puffle is spayed or neutered before they're put up for adoption.
Furthermore, everyone on Shops island was sad to learn they couldn't all have their own golden puffle. However, in late 2013 PH found an entire cave full of Gold Puffles on Club Penguin, which made everyone shop from there instead.
Trivia[edit]
- This marks the first time that Shops Island's military was ever used.
