Each of them had a stand addressed to themselves. Teruteru had a portrait of himself put up where he would have stood. Great regret filled Byakuya's eyes when he looked at it but he didn't let it show on his face. It took a bit longer to get the ones recovering situated since Nekomaru wanted to stay secluded and Hajime didn't want to just stand around. Nagito eventually had Hajime stay with him on the condition that he would play patty cake with him. Fortunately it was simple enough that he could still concentrate while doing that. Several of the looked horrified, Saionji especially, unexpected of her.
Sonia Nevermind: "Its simple, there's only 4 people, correct?"
Byakuya Togami: "Not quite. It could go further than that." He put his hand up to his chin, thinking.
Nagito Komaeda: "No. I believe it's safe to say its one of them." He drew everyone's attention. "You can smell it on them." He tapped his nose and began to walk around the ring. Every time he reached one of them he nodded with an 'mhm'. "Those four are the only ones that smell like food."
Hajime Hinata: "Silly Nagito! They coulda showered!" He giggled at him, Nagito just gave him a small smile and shook his head.
Nagito Komaeda: "I guess i can't blame you in your current state. If you pay attention there's a strong scent of cinnamon, not the kind that could just be washed out."
Chiaki Nanami: "Yea.. I believe Saionji was using it, She had spilled it on her kimono." Saionji seemed to pale and glared at her.
Byakuya Togami: "Why cinnamon? I know for a fact you're not one to cook..."
Hiyoko Saionji: "That's none of your business! Just shut up! You don't know what you're talking about!" Suddenly a commotion broke out on the other side of the room.
Kazuichi Soda: "Again!? Give it back Koizumi!!" He reached for Mahiru who was holding a wrench. They tugged back and forth until her hand slipped and their hands touched each other. "AGH!! YOUR SICK!?" He hopped back shaking his hands wildly. Mahiru just grabbed the wrench and started going after other items that had been dropped during his scare.
Mikan Tsumiki: "Sick?" She walked over to Mahiru and put a hand on her forehead. "She has a fever too..."
Nagito Komaeda: "I see... I'm guessing something along the lines of greedy or selfish disease." He turned to Saionji. "I get it now... you killed Teruteru after you realized Mahiru had fallen ill, then you used cinnamon to cover up the poison since his refined senses could have detected it." Saionji didn't say anything. Her eyes widened and suddenly tears began to stream down her face.
Hiyoko Saionji: "I HAD *hic* TO!! MAHIRU IS SO KIND I COULDN'T *hic* LET HER DIE!!!" She fell to her knees and broke down. Mahiru would have been devastated had it not been for the disease. Akane started crying with her, while Hajime tried to hide his giggles. The rest of them solemnly selected her and the votes wracked up, confirming her guilty.
Monokuma: "Phu Phu Phu! Lets get this show on the- HEY!" Before he could bring his hammer down on the red button Hajime jumped up and slammed his hands on it. However this button was intended for Monokuma's use and outside force seemed to mess with it. Monokuma let out a yell as he was launched out of his seat. Hajime climbed up on it and declared,
Hajime Hinata: "I am the new ruler hehehe!" The others stared in shock, he brought his hands down on the button again and suddenly an electric current ran through him. They were all blinded with a flash and smoke. When they air cleared several gasped in surprise. Hajime's eyes swirled in spirals with red intertwining with the olive green. His hair had taken on the black and white split like monokuma. The left side of his face now bore a scar coming from his lip representing Monokuma's previous smile, the skin around it darkened and burned. He wore a white glove on his right hand and a black glove on his left. His tie was crimson with a black shape representing Monokuma's left eye.

The world around them seemed to have glitches as if they were in a video game. He laughed again but this time it sounded like a mix of his and Monokuma's.
M0nokunn+: "W3ll th!s i$ a we!rd turn 0f ev3nts!" *ahem* "Ah that's better, still had some glitch in my throat." He looked his body up and down. "I gotta be honest though, I preferred my bear body." Everyone's eyes widened. Then his head suddenly snapped to the side with a stronger hint of Hajime's voice.
H+j!M3: "What did you do to us!? Why are we in the same body!?!" *snap*
M0nokunn+: "Don't worry! You still have your normal body too! at least part of you does!" A second one that looked exactly like the original Hajime stepped out from behind the throne, except he had a wide smile on his face. "I thought you were a bit rude, so i decided to make the happiness a bit more PERMANENT!" Monokuma chuckled loudly. *snap*
H+j!m3: "That's not even possible!! Give me my body back!!!" *snap*
M0nokunn+: "Ya know... i might considerate but you have to do some favors for me! HAHAHAHA" The combined Mononata slipped out of there as monokuma usually does, leaving the new happy go lucky Hajime there. On one hand, Saionji didn't get executed, but on the other.. Hajime let out a giggle and ran over, hugging Nanami and Nagito with a wide smile.
:D Hajime: "Yay! we can all be happy now! Let's bake a cake! Or go swimming!" He was jumping with joy as he started to drag the others out of the trial room.
