Voldemort seized him by the collar and attempted to force his way into Yugi’s mind, painfully triggering almost every trap Atem had laid. The traps forced Voldemort out, but Yugi didn’t get a chance to try anything before Bellatrix pointed her wand at him.
“Crucio!”
Yugi screamed.
The pain was like nothing he’d ever felt before. Even the torture of being ripped apart piece by painful piece during the Game with Marik was nothing like the sheer agony that ripped through him now. Every nerve felt like it was on fire and dark claws ripped through his mind and soul, attempting to rip him apart from the inside out.
He writhed on the floor, unable to think past the pain and praying movement would lessen the agony somehow...
Then it stopped as quickly as it had struck, leaving Yugi a shuddering mess on the floor.
“Now.” Voldemort spoke, his tone speaking of his enjoyment of the situation, “Where are the Pharaoh and Potter hiding?”
“Ne...never...” Yugi panted, trying to catch his breath, his voice strained, his body shaking from the remnants of the pain, “I’d rather die... than tell you.”
Voldemort seized him by the collar, pulling him up, and Yugi screwed his eyes shut and turned his head away, having suffered through Voldemort’s attempts to rip through the barriers Yami had installed in his mind once already and not wanting to go through it again.
“Look at me.” Voldemort hissed, “Look at me Mutou...”
“N...No...” Yugi hit the floor, hard, the shock causing his eyes to open just in time to see Bellatrix raise her wand again.
“Crucio.”
Yugi screamed again and again as the pain coursed through him, unable to hold it in as the agony went on and on and on...
And stopped suddenly.
The sounds of fighting erupted in his ears as the ringing from his own screams died down.
“Yugi!”
Yugi’s eyes shot open at the Pharaoh’s call, but before he could respond Voldemort had caught his eyes and tried to push his way into Yugi’s mind.
What was left of Yugi’s mental defences activated against the Dark Lord, temporarily preventing him from entering Yugi’s Soul Room and giving the heir enough time to use the only tactic his barely conscious mind could come up with to prevent Voldemort finding out any more of the Clan’s secrets.
Yugi’s body lost consciousness as the heir retreated to his Soul Room and barricaded the door with every defence he could muster.
